I can't answer all your questions, but there's one or two that are easy enough.
I've opted to go with oral without...but how do you deal with a client who isn't clean enough? I want to make them feel as comfortable and desired as possible but I also won't be able to pretend I'm enjoying it if it's disgusting. I thought about taking some flavoured lube which might help.
It's important to feel confident (or at least act confident!) when you say, politely and with a smile, "I won't be able to give you oral without a condom unless you wash this a bit more first" - if you don't look disgusted, there's no reason for them to be offended. All a client needs to do for a booking is act respectfully, pay upfront and wash himself properly in the shower. You are 100% in the right to expect every single client to do those three simple things. It's not like you're asking them to climb Mt Everest for you - they just need to either have a clean and disease-free willy, or they have to deal with receiving covered oral.
Putting it into a simple Option A vs Option B question makes it much easier for both of you. Or even with certain questions, there's only an Option A - e.g. when I take an afternoon incall from someone that I know has been at work all day, I don't say, "Would you like a shower, or...?" I say, "I'm just going to get the shower running for you now, and here's a towel and there's the showergel and mouthwash, and please feel free to relax and refresh yourself for a couple of minutes, I'll see you very shortly!" with a big smile. If a client's willy smells or looks funny, though, he gets, "Would you like to try washing yourself again, or shall I use a flavoured condom?" There's
never an Option C (whining, sulking or having a tantrum) so it's a bit like with toddlers - just keep calm, tell them what's what and they'll 99% of the time happily choose one of the options you've given them rather than put the effort into kicking up a fuss or feeling sorry for themselves.
Any client who DOES kick up a fuss indicates that he expects you to put up with a stinky/disease-ridden willy, and that means he's one of the few guys who do not deserve any service at all. Feel free to kick a guy like that straight out, with a partial refund if applicable (i.e. if he paid for 2 hours but only stayed 30 mins, he should in fairness just pay for that 30 mins). Some escorts might recommend keeping the whole fee but I'd always choose the easier option - give him that partial refund and he'll know you're serious about wanting him gone. Plus he won't have anything to be angry at you about afterwards as you'll have acted fairly.
What sort of thing should I answer the door in? If I'm doing a daytime session would be expected to still wear an evening type dress over nice lingerie?
A nice day dress is fine during the day! I've heard of girls wearing Uggs and leggings but probably wouldn't be that casually-dressed myself, simply because I like to feel like I'm looking my best - so I think pretty day dresses are a really great thing to wear for daytime bookings, which mine almost exclusively are. I think it's a smart idea to wear something that you can open the door in, and if necessary, could run out into the street in, too, because if you open the door and some nutcase rushes in past you to rob the flat, it's best that you get outside and shout for help. If you are dressed like a "normal" girl rather than like someone who works in a place of sexy sex, you're more likely to feel confident rushing out to ask for help, probably. But YMMV and I also think it's very personal what every escort feels most comfortable wearing. I can't run in mega heels so I only wear them in the bedroom, and only if requested. But if you're the opposite, you might feel more comfy in mad heels than not!
If I'm really really nervous should I tell them it's my first time? I know some men might get off on this but others might be annoyed that they've paid so much for someone who has no idea what they're doing!! I'm not even that sexually experienced, I've had a lot of sex but with long term boyfriends and even though I've always had positive feedback I'm worried I won't stack up until I'm a bit more experienced.
If you're offering a GFE, clients are looking for genuine friendliness, acceptance and warmth, not "how many fingers(/fists!) can I stick in your xyz" or "how many consecutive minutes can you deepthroat my willy" etc. A GFE-seeking client will just want you to make him feel good about being with you, so whatever you're used to doing for boyfriends can be really enjoyable for clients, too. You might want to slightly adapt things, of course, if there's stuff you want to keep for a boyfriend, but that's more than fine. You already know how to do all the things that will make clients feel special so best to actually focus on relaxing
yourself and gaining confidence so you can deliver the most affectionate performance possible.
How do you keep an eye on the time without looking like you're clock watching? The agency have told me I'll probably be back to back with bookings the first few weeks because I'm new so I'm conscious of only having 15min breaks in between each client, which isn't long to clean up and make myself/the flat look like no-one has been there!
I've no idea how on earth they expect you to be alone in the flat (I'm assuming) doing all the cleaning and tidying, AND washing yourself properly, all in FIFTEEN minutes between clients.
Sorry, that one's beyond me! (Except maybe the suggestion to 'clean as you go' and, for example, pick up used towels as soon as they're finished with so they go straight in the wash, and put all used condoms and tissues and wipes straight into a nappy sack so that can go in the bin right after the booking - and maybe ask them if they have multiple bedcovers so you just quickly switch them between jobs? That way you get to spend at least 11 minutes showering and redoing hair/makeup, hopefully?)
I've got to ask, too: does anyone who is
not making money out of you know where you're going to be and what you're going to be doing, just in case (God forbid) you need to make a desperate phone call for rescue?
