New to this wanting some advise!
« on: 29 December 2010, 11:25:37 am »
Hiya,

I'm seriously considering doing the escorting, but to be honest i don't really know anything about it appart from the obvious!
Does any one know any good escort agency's in Leeds?
And any advise would be really welcome!!

Thanks Natasha xxx

Have you read the main site (http://www.saafe.info) ?

You won't find people posting recommendations of agencies here (although you might get someone sending a private message). What is it you think an agency would offer you?

Id just like to add, have you thought of becoming independent? when i first thought of doing this i was like AHH INDEPENDEDNT NO WAY  :-X but i am so glad i went down that road as i have alot more freedom and can chose if i want to see a certain client on the feeling i get off him, Also you don't have to have any quotas and minimum hours you can be available. Just a wee bit of food for thought.



P.S  im not saying dont go with an agency :) just wondering if you have thought threw all the options.

oh and read the main site about a million times im still rereading it now :)

Yes Ive just started reading the main site so definatly going to crack on with that!!

I fort maybe working for a agency would be safer and some were to start tbh!! I fort maybe an agency would give me some kind of experience, then i could move on from there!! As i cant do in calls otherwise and it would half to be outcalls only!

So do you think its best to do it independently??

There are so many diffrent people with so many diffrent views,

I don't know whether it is the same in your case, but if i were new to escorting, i would probably think an agency was the way to go, to 'learn the ropes' as it were, especially if you were really green about the business, and knew no one who was involved in this industry. And it probably wouldn't even cross my mind that people did it independently!
The reason i think, why you will probably get no recommendations for agencies on the forum is because most of the ladies (and gentlemen) here may have at one time worked in an agency and and found independent work to be better. Though, im sure this is not the main or only reason for this!, someone may be along later to add to or rectify my reason!

The pros for an agency is that they do (or should) do the safety checks for you, advertise on your behalf ,answer the phonecall queries and take the bookings.
The cons are that they take a percentage of your money, you may feel that to keep your job you have to see all the drugged up, smelly, dirty  clients., ( some are smelly and dirty, but there are some where you just can't handle it!!).
Some agencies are scams.
 
The pros of independent work is  you keep your money, and you can pick and choose your clients.
Doing safety checks, you know that if you do them yourself, you are as confident as you can be in seeing the client.
The cons are paying for acommodation (unless you work from home), advertising, drivers if needed.

You may need to have some pics done and set up a website.

 Im sure that there are more pros and cons for both agency and independent work, but can't think of anymore at the mo!

You may get alot more replies to this post where you can see other peoples opinions on this.
Also, as has already been said, do read the main site as it is a wealth of information. Also do a 'search' for anything you can't find on the main site as it may have already been discussed by the informative and experienced members here.

It is a case of swings and roundabouts: agencies do some things you would have to do for yourself but there is a cost and they tend not to have your best interests to heart.

So yes, they should have a good security system in place, but in practice they can often send people off to anyone who will pay.

If you do decide to try an agency, always remember that it is you doing them a favour (letting them profit from you having sex with someone) rather than the other way around. Agencies need escorts a lot more than escorts need agencies...

i started off straight away independantly and have had no probs with it initially i did both incalls and outcalls but for the last 6 months have done outcalls only then 2 days a month incalls at a hotel well advertised before hand


you just have to be confident and comfortable with what your doing and make it work for you if its what you really want to do

good luck with whatever you decide

The quickest and easiest way to advertise in the best spots is to google your local area, so look up "Escorts, Leeds", "Outcalls Leeds" etc and see what ranks on page 1 or 2 of google as this will drive most of the traffic to your own site, is that's what's you've decided to do.

After that, pick an advertising budget per month and try and stick to it - there are a lot of free listings available where the only requirement is to have the banner for the advertising site showing on your own. The whole process of going through the sites and uploading your details is time consuming and a pain in the butt but worth it in the long run.

Once you're up and running, get yourself set up with google analytics, which will show you where most of your hits are coming from and from there you can make the decision to pull some of your paid advertising or carry on, depending on whether it's working for you.  :)
