Paris, I didn't see a specific feature for posting on the right - hand side, but I did the one with a thumbnail thingy. And then I opted as well for reposting every other day. I'm giving it a 12-week trial.

I have a second phone that I never use so I'm going to use it for BP. I have yet another spare phone and could get a PAYG sim for that and use it for PTMY and Vivastreet. Should help me to keep track of which ones are working for me. So this weekend I will get a SIM for the third phone and after Christmas I'll put Pleasure To Meet You and take out an add on Viva Street.

The two spare phones will be left at my work flat so that they're not bugging me when I'm home. With AW at least you can indicate "Available Today" or not.

Today's been my worst day yet, so far, but I've got a lot of inquiries for next week (Monday specifically), that must
be when people finish up work?
Anyone else noticed an increase in inquiries for bookings for next week??
Oh phone just rang and got a booking, yaay , 1st one for today..  ::)
Here's hoping he'll turn up.. Hope everyone else is doing ok or at least surviving..!  :)

I was all set to be busy today - had an hour at 11, another hour at 12:30, and then a 2-hour at 2... but the two-hour booking cancelled. I have accepted a booking for 4 (a half hour) and will go home when that is done.)

Where I am - a busy city centre - a lot of guys will call wanting someone IMMEDIATELY. I've had to turn a couple of them away because I couldn't be available at the exact time they wanted at short notice.

Viva st is def worth putting on a seperate phone as it's normally pretty busy you just have to weed out the tw

It's been maybe ten minutes since I posted my ad to BP and I have already gotten a call.

This afternoon's booking for me is in jeopardy due to the traffic on the M25 - London Christmas exodus!  :(

I had a two-hour booking cancel last-minute this afternoon. (I have a new policy of saving such people in my phone as cancellers and they will be double-booked in the future if they are ever booked again). Managed to get a half hour, though. Had another half hour for 7 tonight but I am just too damn tired because the last client was very energetic. It's been a long week. Roll on weekend!

That's awesome! I only ever got one enquiry from there when I had a free trial.

In theory this is a good idea but in practice not so. 

You can always turn off or on to silent.

You may take unwell or half a dozen other things could go wrong and you may miss calls for future bookings.  If youve not got your phone then you may miss out.

Also, someone may call/text to cancel a booking and being able to take the call or text could save you running about like a heidless chicken.

Just a thought.

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 mean you can easiley be paying ?200 a month for ads which if you've not made much seems hard to part with in slow times, is it THAT worth it, surley if it's a slow month like jan or feb, men don't want to book anyways?

Yes its a lot of money but it only  takes a couple of bookings within that  month to make it up and all the rest is profit.

It is all up to the individual though to decide if they think it is worth it.

I had two bookings today and I had to turn rest down, as they all want this same time!
Maybe my lovely regular will come to see me tonight as well <3 but I don't hold my breath.
Now I'm preparing myself mentally to Friday Night Drunk Brigade calling their asses off.

Inc  viva st  AW featuring local search and available today and other stuff I probably spend around ?130 per week on advertising but it pays off overall
It sounds a lot but  it's 1 booking a week

When put as only one booking a week it really makes sense and a good pay off  :)

It's all relative f you only work 3 days a week or outcalls only then it's prob not
Worth it
If you work 5 days like I do plus the option to work weekends if I want to then it's defiantly worth it
