I guess everyone is different. I am hardly making any profit at the moment with my prices but I trying to get reviews up and pay my bills and debts at the same time which I am very slowly doing.

I am going to start with my in-calls even at my lower price but I already have a few people wanting to see me.

If I got 100 genuine callers a day (minus the time wasters) wanting me at my current prices I would put them up, seeing as I am just about getting a client a day I will happily keep them as they are so I can pay off any debts and bills I need to clear but it is tough going this month and I hope for a better month next month as I plan to get professional photos and start doing in-calls. I hope this speeds things up a bit for me!!

Hi girls
I working in Central London at the moment close to Aldgate east station and I recognise I have so quiet days every month between 20-22 of every month. For example last week was busy for me and this week is just nightmare! I did not have any bookings this Tuesday, yesterday and even now is so quiet on my phone. I used to working on the canary wharf and it was exactly the same. When it was like a 20-21 September was quiet and every months like that. Of course I got some calls but is really late then like between 1am and 5am.
Also I posted many adds and I have around 13 adverts right now so anyone has an idea what is wrong with me???

Hmmmm.... maybe it's the perfect storm of bills being do and not yet being payday?

This is intriguing. I'm keeping track of income on a calendar and I'll be interested to see if these dates are similar for me.

Still trying to work out what people mean by SLOW....

I set off to work on Monday without a booking, I have read reports of others that have cancelled tours on the basis that the phone has not rang before leaving home. I arrived and had a busy couple of hours before it went quiet, but it then picked up.

The Tuesday started really slow and I had no bookings before lunch, I had a regular booked in for 2pm and then did a few more after. To me the amount of money I took home, after expenses was more than reasonable and i know people that do not take home twice that amount for a month working a 40 hr week.

Was it slow? Yes, not taking a booking till 2pm on the Tuesday I felt I could have earned far more than I did, I also had a couple of hours or so spare on the Monday. But I was more than happy with what I took home. So what is SLOW? Yes it is boring sat on your own in a hotel room waiting for clients and I had my fair share of idiots that did not turn up, although only 1 was not expected to arrive. the others I had marked as time-wasters.

Having earned a reasonable amount on the Monday and covered my expenses everything I took on Tuesday was pure profit.

I agree. My idea of slow ( if touring) is often different to others
There is no set thing for slow

I look at what I have made at the end week /tour because that's what counts for me

Slow is when people expect to only pay 1/4 of you rate, and anything more is too much.

Slow is when your last appointment was 2 days ago, and the one before that was 2 days ago, and at the end of the week it's not enough to make ends meet.

Slow is when your phone and ads go an entire day with no response.

Slow is when your phone and ads only collect timewasters.

Slow is in your definition of what slow is.

Slow is not making ends meet.

Slow is being behind on bills.

Slow is escorts dropping their ads in the local area, because it's slow.

What sort of special offers are you doing?

I have decided to try 15-minute quickies. I've had a couple as well as some calls about them. I can't tell if they're attracting people who wouldn't otherwise see me or if those who would are going for the cheapest option. I do have to explain that it's not a full-on session, but rather just oral sex. Some people are perfectly happy with this, so that's cool I guess.

There is a market for it, most definitely. Some men become addicted to quickies. I've got lots of regulars that do it, and some of them are super quick. There are many also that are going for the cheapest option, but they are the ones who are going to overrun and mess about and it's quite easy to find them out. Keep them away and don't always believe a guy who says he's quick because they often aren't. I don't normally accept a quickie booking unless I've already seen him for a half hour and know for sure he's quick. I also mainly do full sex quickies, and the occasional hand job, because oral invariably takes longer and is harder work. YMMV

I had a quickie last night who literally came in his fifteenth minute. I realised that I don't really have the balls to tell someone "your time is up!" I would have gone quite a bit over before doing so.


I also won't really schedule them far in advance. Well, I tell them that if I get a call for a longer booking I will bump them.

I really don't think that I have the right disposition for these. I hate to say "no" or otherwise say anything negative. I like to be the sweet, giving, accommodating female. (I have absolutely no problem saying "no" when there's a problem. I mean that I hate creating situations where that may be necessary.)

This week was dreadful... One day was almost nothing and one day was absolutely nothing (a no-show and the guy I refused to temporarily marry.)

But you know what? Somehow I made my minimum weekly goal! Yesterday was OK and today has been great and it somehow worked out OK. Would have been much better if I'd made money on the one blank day but you do have to look at it as an average over time. It can be so frustrating when the phone isn't ringing. You start to wonder if that's the way it's always going to be. But it won't. The phone will ring and you'll make your money.

Sure it's pretty dead in January but I'm still making my money and I know it's going to pick up soon!

I have a hard time doing this! I'd hate to have to stop someone in the middle of the act. When there's not long left I have to do it in stages, like 'We need to finish soon...', wait 5min... 'Sorry but we really need to finish up now...' That usually helps them finish quick, and if they don't I'll have a bit less of a guilt trip since I did warn them!

I've thought about special offers... it's been really quiet for me since before Christmas. But it's also unpredictable, dead all week and then a comparatively 'busy' day to make up for some of it.

Slow... to me, that means making noticeably less money then what I'm used to. Which is the case lately!
