I rarely work Saturdays. This morning, starting at 9am, my phone started ringing.

One booking who very politely cancelled well ahead of time because his train was going to be late. Another inquiry had been for the same time and he'd booked elsewhere by the time I said "I've had a cancellation if you'd like to try for 10." Another guy realised that my location wasn't at all doable for him today. Then a guy no-showed after I said that I was sorry but I couldn't start off a half-hour booking in the shower as I'd literally just dried and styled my hair (I even said, if this is a deal-breaker for you, I understand. Please let me know. Couldn't be bothered to say that he wasn't going to show.) Two time-wasters.

So, I've made sweet fuck-all today in spite of a busy phone.

This is definitely the quietest I've ever been.. On the plus-side, seems even the TW's can't be bothered lol,
so the few calls I do get tend to be genuine.
And thankgod for my regulars!
I don't do out-calls, I'd probably be busier if I did, I'm sure guys would pay the extra money for having someone
come to them instead of having to go out in the cold..
I don't have to be perfect, but I'm perfect at being me!

Yeah, I agree with this but I could never muster whatever it took to do the outcalls.
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.

No neither can I Lady_Lust... Maybe if I get really desperate I might consider it..
But as long as things are ticking over they'll just have to keep coming to me  ;)

I have literally had the worst week ever! Had to send my kids away for the weekend just because I'm so broke! 
Don't know what I am doing wrong,  business was fine until this week? Yesterday I had 6 guys either cancel at short notice, or just not turn up!  Just done my first client in 4 days,  and it was only a half hour booking!

I've just started offering incall days and now outcalls seem like soo much effort in comparison! I love being able to lie around between bookings watching TV and eating biscuits and not having to rush off to get on public transport (it takes me at least an hour to get anywhere in London, it's just stupidly busy)

Haha I love incalls for this exact reason. I chill in my pyjamas and everything until I get a booking.

I know, I have this same! It takes ages to get somwhere and I'm missing my trains all the time! Can't wait until I'll start doing incalls.

I'm back today after a week off. I always find Monday's the worst for the weirdoes. I've started calling it Mad Monday. No bookings, just a few phone calls. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I think I'll take some new pics and write a blog :)
We're women, it's what we do. I just get paid for it.

This week is the strangest I have ever come across. Only getting requests for tantric massages the last 2 days, guys calling and saying they will call back, had 2 x 30 minute bookings from AW (which is rare) and just general enquiries with no intention of booking. Don't know what's going on?

I have NEVER EVER been this quiet... It can't be my profile, or me, (well it could be lol), but it's always served me well and I
update it regularly with the odd new pic and a blog..
If it wasn't for my regulars I don't think I'd have any business at the moment, and even they're not coming as often as usual..  :(

I'm not really finding it quiet, just unprofitable. Phone is ringing enough times. The time wasters seem to be able to find my number. Particularly the cross dressers needing to witter on interminably about make up colours, wigs, scenarios etc. Every self obsessed w****r is out there, but real clients are a bit sparse for some reason

I'm thinking I should probably invest in advertising in more places instead of relying on AW.. (I know, good thinking
batman ::))
It's just that I've never had to change strategies before, things have always been ticking over quite nicely even in
quiet times, maybe I'm getting old, aaarrrghh! :o

I'm a bit like Sourgrapes - lots of enquiries, but they're usually from timewasters or the type of client I don't see. Oh, and the cretinous Brummie who has phoned me twice within the last week and asked me to stay on the phone while he "finishes off"...

I've gone on Vivastreet with a 30-day free trial, but am not impressed - only one firm booking from it, and it's frustrating not being able to be very descriptive in your profile or list prices etc. (I tried, but they kept refusing it.) I don't intend to keep paying for it.

I pay to display my number on AW as and when I have the credits, but haven't found 'Available today' made any difference, though that's possibly as I'm a niche taste.
