First week in January was super-busy. Last week was a complete bust so I packed up and went home.
I usually find the 2nd week in Jan busy but it had a dead feeling to it before I even set off on tour so I wasn't surprised.
I'm confident the next two weeks will be better (although I don't usually tour last week in Jan but I do think it will be good this year).
I work first 3 weeks of Feb too.
Hopefully we'll all tick along nicely.

Slow day, Timewasters and 3 people cancelled...One woke up with a cold, Another had to travel for work and another got called into work. No shows, So annoying. I'm thinking of only taking advanced bookings with deposits. I Don't think these guys realise some of us have to plan ahead, Pay for accommodation and then sit around. I'd pack it in today but I do have a regular booking this evening thankfully. Always worst with TW if I go Available today. Not had a day this bad in ages.

On another note, There's been talk of doing websites. How easy is it to set up and do you need to use a company Web designers?

Easy, and no, no you don't need company web designers. That said, Ian/xw5 designs websites.
Use the search bar (and look in the IT section), you will find loads of threads about websites

It's been quiet for me as well, I've paid for AT and only got 2x 0.5h with people that I've seen before.  And one message demanding my postcode and house number :)))

As miffy recommended and replied you don’t need Web designer companies. I am in the process of having my website being put together. Elrond whose name is Steve was recommended by ladies on this forum who have had their website done by him. I am very happy with him, his professionalism, respect and taking into account how I wanted the site to look.

I did think about it for a few months whilst I was waiting for adultwork to verify my profile so if it is a consideration have a good think about how you would like your site to look. All the best x

Thank you for the advice on websites xx  This months been one of those months, I miss 2019 lol But I'm trying to think positive that we are over the worst and come April things will be a bit more predictable.

What's the opinion on asking for deposits with ore-bookings? I would love to have some control of planning my days when I book apartments to work. Today I've just felt so fed up, I did use the twiddling thumbs time to take some new pics contorting myself into poses made me realise I might benefit from yoga classes lol

Deposits are mandatory for all (my) pre-booked outcalls. I think you might struggle with securing deposits for incall bookings, irregardless of whether they're advance bookings or on the day. Others might be able to advise differently. Again, use the search box as I know there are numerous threads about this topic.

Very quiet for me this week. Only regulars so far and no genuine nice sounding new clients. Hoping the announcement of the covid restrictions lifting will bring some of the client back out

All my i calls pay deposits unless they are regulars. I find most of my clients pay by transfer non stop and I love it i don’t have to go to the bank or hold cash in the room.

Just to chime in, if it helps anyone feel more confident with asking for a deposit.. I also ask for deposits for all meetings, incalls and outcalls alike, - bar maybe 2 incredibly reliable clients who’ve never cancelled, gone quiet or even rescheduled come to think of it, but even those the minute they let me down they’d be paying a deposit for the next time.
//
Messages/calls wise it’s slowly picking up for me lately, I’ve been moving my locations around about once a week or so, and using a few diff sites, as I had been beforehand but now in regularly updating those as well as AW, - outcalls have been popular the last couple weeks which is just such a relief 😮‍💨

For me it's been a joke this week. I might leave it for January and start fresh in feb. I am paying for AT everyday and I get only idiots that can't read my profile and very few bookings.. I don't have the energy to do this. 
Hope for you ladies is different  x

Totally the same for me this week, I really can't remember one as bad as this.
One 30 min this morning and he was the first I've seen since last Friday!
Plenty of idiots and timewasters about, just my opinion denise96 but I wouldn't waste credits on AT, it always just seems to attract idiots when I've used it.
Fingers crossed for some improvement soon.

Dead. Nothing but first timer inquiries and persistent types already in my blocklist. Most of my regulars and passing traffic used to be from out of town or married so during the pandemic may be working remotely or not have a good enough excuse to dodge their wife.

There's often a drought as January's a long month for people who got paid just b4 Xmas .
Hopefully it picks up early Feb for you .
Wish time wasters got charged a penalty for not turning up !
