Hi, I'm Alison (not real name) 22 from Colchester Essex i'm new here but have been reading this forum for quite a while now.

I have finally decided to take the plunge and start out escorting. Its something ive been thinking about for a long time but i think now is the time.

I dont know any girls who do this as a living so reading these forums has been a massive help to me, so thanks everyone!

I have a place that i can work from, ive also brought the things i think i need eg. 2nd phone for work,condoms lube,tissues etc, even some new sexy lingerie and sexy clothes.

The thing that is on my mind though is how to attract customers. I know all about Adult Work and have had a good look on there but not sure i want to advertise on there just yet until im more established and used to this work. Maybe im wrong? I dont know.

I am thinking about writing a little ad to put in a couple of shop windows (I have seen ads like this around town)
I plan to do this tomorrow.

Im nervous as hell tbh, but excitited at the same time if that makes sense!
If anyone has any advice then that would be welcoming.

Well thats about it, I just thought id come here and write my first post.

 I think personally if your putting the adds in shop windows you may get a lot of local idiots calling you
Plus the shop owners will know exactly what you do ( you may not mind this ) depends on if it’s your local shop that you use

I don’t think you would generate much business working this way as most guys like the convenience and discretion of using their phones .
I can’t remember the last time I ever looked in my local shop window for anything - anything I want I can get on line on my phone in minutes

Ads in shop windows sounds absolutely the wrong way to do things in my view and if you have been reading this site for a long time I would imagine you will know the most advisable things to do. Not sure if you are serious about cards in windows to be honest.

Starting off on AW with a basic profile would be a good idea and no need for any men to think you are new to this.  I made it clear when I set my profile up on there that my advert was new but I had a wealth of experience in sex work.  Less likely to get all the idiots thinking you are green as grass etc.

You don't say if escorting would be a part time only job or if you want to take it up full on as your only income. Going full time requires plenty of planning and thought and as much knowledge as possible, all of which can be found right here on Saafe.

Thanks ladies for you helpful replies.

Maybe a card in the shop window isn't a good idea, I only suggested it because a shop in our high street has a few cards offering massage.

I will look into AW (do you pay to advertise on there?)

May I also ask how you were all feeling leading up to your first client? I only ask because I'm looking forward to it (when it happens) with sort of excitement but also a nervous feeling. Excitement because of earning some cash but nervous undressing and being naked with someone who isn't a boyfriend or partner. Perhaps I'm looking into it too deeply?
Thanks again for your comments x

Have a walk round Asda’s or Tesco’s. Look at every bloke that’s there
If you will be comfortable with having sex with pretty much any of them then your  good to
Always but always get the money first and don’t be scared to count it in front of them .
AW isn’t really free it’s £1.20 to show your number
£ 1.20 -£1.80  to put yourself in the local escort search and / regional search
£6 to use availible today 
So roughly £9 a day

With AW you can have a profile and do fine without shelling out a penny. I do. Low volume means I can manage quite well without displaying my number or being available today etc etc but others will rely on those paid options. I actually make a nice little profit from that site by having a private gallery.

The Asda and Tesco (or Pound shop if you choose!) is a great suggestion to see if you can be intimate with that old fella in a shabby overcoat or the man who eats a thousand pies.

Hello OP, I’m quite new and only started last July after a massive amount of hesitation!

I read this forum until it hurt my eyes. It was worth it as I found out everything I needed to know in order to feel as safe as possible. The search button was my friend and anything I needed an update on or couldn’t find I just asked.

It is amazing how the whole process of working as safely as possible quickly became like second nature to me. I enjoy the job on so many levels.

Good luck with it.

Stick with saafe and you’ll be fine.

And yes I agree about looking at guys you see. Not just the good looking ones. Don't get me wrong there are some really good looking guys who book us, but a lot are old, balding and with beer bellies.

Yes I realise there will be a variety of men of different ages, shape etc.
Can I ask... when you are with a really old or really fat bald guy for example, how do you keep up the pretence of 'enjoying' yourself and making out you are turned on?

You don't have to pretend to be turned on or do the OTT fake porn moaning etc. but you can if you choose to of course! Men are not stupid though and will likely know if you are doing a whole fake show.  The most important thing is to make HIM feel good and hopefully turn him on.

If he has turned up/paid up/is clean and has decent manners without overstepping boundaries then that is enough to make you happy enough to give a good booking. That is how I see it anyway.
