I also had only two this month. Half an hour apart ::) I just don't understand this work...I got a booking for today too so if he isn't a TW it will be three :D Update: he wasn't a timewaster, so it's three ;DWhat is happening? Two years ago when I was here I was so busy! I hope next week will be better for all of us!

Hi everyone!  I'm new to the forum but have been reading posts for awhile! Yeah completely agree with u all, i'm in the north and its just as dead up here. I thought feb was suppose to be a tough month, but march is even worse.

I've thought about reducing rates until it picks up but my rates are reasonable as it is!!

Hoping next week it a better one for us all  :)

I found February was fine but I have to say March so far has been rather shaky to say the least.  Only had 2 bookings this week and both of them were far from ideal clients. I've also noticed I'm getting Lot's of annoying calls this week, a much higher proportion then normal and also more than an average amount of dodgy emails. I had one yesterday from a 14 year old boy (or at least someone pretending to be one :o) Disturbing to say the least.
Hopefully next week they oddballs will vanish back into their dark cellars and the decent clients will come out to play.

At the moment I am getting hardly any new enquiries but nicely ticking over with some great regs. Thank the Lord for them!

I've found it quiet but I changed a lot about how I work recently (I'm doing a quickies only service and I'm available during strict 'opening hours' two days a week) so at least part if it is down to that. Most of my enquiries are guys whining about how they want to see me but only if they can have an hour. Which is funny because when I did do long appointments almost all my bookings were quickies and half hours :P Camming is really busy though, I've done really well this week, so if any of you were considering getting into that now might be the time haha.

I've also been very quiet recently and most of the clients I have booked in for the next few weeks are either regulars or have been booked in with me for a while. I wonder if the internet is magically not working every time I'm not looking, and only comes back in to being when I turn on my mac. If only.

I thought it was just me, I had one rebook this week and (hopefully) got a booking for tonight although he hasn't got back as he sent an email at half 5 in the morning, who checks their emails at that time?!

That sounds dire :( Sorry you guys are finding things so bad!

I have found it to be a bit funny still, days where the phone is dead but then it picks back up the next day.

Normally if I'm quiet I spend the time I would shagging doing the admin, updating my blog, looking around on the forums, updating my site and aw, googling and looking at different directories, maybe take a couple of new photos and put them up etc.

I hadn't had a booking since the beginning of February, so I decided last week to join an agency for a while. I must say, I've never been so busy before. It's less money per client, but everyone is so lovely and I'm making more money than before. I really hope things pick up for everyone else, it's been a tough one so far this year.

Well done Coty, glad youve got some work in.  Fingers crossed they arent timewasters.
Beauty is nothing to do with having a pretty face.
It is about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart,
And most importantly a beautiful soul.

I think the weather has a large bearing on work.  As we know it's been horrible weather since Christmas and for sure once the sun comes out and the temperature picks up, then the guys get phoning more. 

Also, the current economic climate doesn't help and we are still hearing sad stories of redundancies, job losses etc. 

Fortunately, if you have regulars, these can keep things ticking over.

It's also worth blogging, updating website/aw content, photos and perhaps even offer some temporary special offer to entice more work. 

Good luck. 

Love
Jen

Well done Coty, glad youve got some work in.  Fingers crossed they arent timewasters.

One was...and I expected he would be! Got this text today.

"Bad news. I just got back into the country and had my money to last me the month stolen from my hand luggage:-( So I only have ?90 to last me but I am MORe than HAPPY to spend that on you:-) bit I doubt you would do 2 hours for that:-(

I replied that I didn't believe him as if that was all he had left to last him the month he wouldn't be spending it on a prossie but I said I'm willing to do an hour for that! He said an hour wasn't enough for all he wanted to do so could I be flexible. I said NO.
So he agreed to it, then text again asking me to come at 9.30am when he knows I don't take bookings till 3pm!
Told him to stop wasting my time!

Good news is I have a better booking come through now:-))
