Prices for Outcalls
« on: 23 June 2014, 09:09:34 pm »
Hi,

I know this is very personal, but a guy contacted me and told me I was charging too much for outcalls in my area!

I have bookings but not a lot of bookings. Advice please.

Check what other girls who are offering the same services as you do are charging in your area and adjust accordingly.

I looked at what other women were charging and what I'd be willing to be paid for the services we provide. Mine is also a bit pricey but its what im comfortable with and im not reliant on the work for my day-to-day bills so would rather have 1 good payer than 3 or 4 where I felt I was under selling myself IMO.

You will often encounter guys that have the audacity to tell you what you "should" be charging. You will notice that (by huge coincidence) it is the exact amount they have in their pocket / have decided they wish to pay you.

If you have done your research properly, and are happy with the amount you are charging, then take no notice of these idiots. We all get these, and I'm sure you would continue to get them occasionally even if you charged ?10 an hour. It's just a reverse attempt at discount hunting xx

Exactly that.

I've had quite a few emails on Adultwork telling me that my price is too high, but i get even more clients who are happy to pay the asking price. I don't think my prices are high and i think it's rude when somebody has the cheek to email it out of the blue. In fact, i'd prefer if they were brazen and simply said "I don't have enough money please can i have a discount" lol, they'd still receive a big fat no but i wouldn't be as offended.

If you're happy with what your charging then balls to them  ;D

 As has been said have a look at what others in your area that offer similar services are offering, remember though this is just a guideline if you feel you are worth more then charge that.

If you are getting the work you need then obviously there are plenty who will pay your fee, if you don't get the work then maybe have a look at your advertising (are you advertising in the right sites for your area? Is your ad being seen?) only after you have checked all this should you contemplate lowering your rates.

Also take into account how long travel takes you, I could charge ?20 less but I don't drive and even my nearest town is 1hr bus ride away. So that can be at least a 2hr round trip for a 30 min appointment, so I charge that extra bit because of that.
