When it is slow that is the time to increase the advertising/promoting to get it busy again. It was really strange but then realised an option expired on my advertising. So renewed and back to good times. Blogging also keep things fresh and exciting for clients.

This has been the quietest month for me in over a year. I've noticed that I am now one of the most expensive escorts in my area (?150 per hour), in a busy Central London area. A few months ago many escorts were advertising the same rates as me, I'm considering reducing my rates but it's almost a matter of pride not to! However there have been a few days this week where I haven't even had one client, which is rare for me. I've had calls, but most of them have been timewasters. I guess I am going to have to bite the bullet an reduce my rates a little bit, bit even if I reduce by ?10 I'll still be one of the most expensive escorts in my area. It's really frustrating, but I suppose it's essential.

I'm really sick of guys booking, so it looks like I'm gonna have a really busy day, but then they cancel, change their mind,
or when I check (which I sometimes do for longer bookings) if they're still coming, they're "not sure, I'll let you know"

Yeah right, I'll just sit and wait and knock back other potential bookings

Either book and stick to it or don't bother!

This is why some girls double book! I know it's evil and horrible to do to punters but this is why girls do it.

Once a guy indicates in ANY way that he's not rock-solid, I consider him merely pencilled in and will take another booking. I will generally try to let him know before he'll be actually travelling to me. But I'm sick of being fucked about by these wankers and I'm starting to get a bit ruthless.

No wonder I have 800 phone numbers blocked on my 2 sims . Probably some of them are genuine but their behaviour/way of texting and talking made me consider them future no shows and I wont risk waiting for nothing or losing other genuine bookings for them.

I have zero tolerance for time wasters.

Ugh! Phone just blew up.... I hate when I get a flurry of phone calls within 20 minutes all wanting about the same time, all adamant that they have zero flexibility. I say yes to everyone, have a careful think, feel them out, and then pick one - cancel the others.

I try to remember that we are here to be fanny-on-tap and they're not interested in scheduling around us. Yes, they will pay a lot of money for it but they will not wait for it!

Yep that pretty much described my day yesterday! Why do they bother booking when they have no intention of showing?

been a week of 80% tws until today... booked myself 8 bookings thinking today would follow this week's standard and I'd only actually see a few of them, but they all turned up! And for the first time ever i got two tips in a day!!!! I hardly ever get tips! I'm bloody shattered now with another on route, but so relieved to have people actually show!

Hang in there guys, after a slow few days it always picks up! I think a looming pay day and slightly better weather is helping! Never rains punters it just occasionally pours the buggers!

I had a couple of no-shows yesterday but it was OK because I was exhausted still from Thursday. Felt more rested today which was good because I had an insanely busy day of 7 clients.

I am knackered but have had my best week ever in spite of the snow storm up North pretty much killing Tues and Weds for me.

Yes get what you mean I don't take bookings seriously until they get here. The ones I think will not show are asked to text an hour before to confirm. It isn't nice loosing bookings for a no show. But those who have seen me before can be a no show. So it depends. One last night booked for today then less than 2 hours later cancelled. Today has been good.

I have found that its either ridiculously busy or absolutely quiet and yo yoing between the two on any given day this last week.

Yes! That was my experience this week.

Hopefully things will level out after payday - well, until they spend their entire wage on credit card bills!

I've been off with a cold for almost a week which has driven me mad!! Needs must though, it has not been pretty. I couldn't bear to think of spreading my germs and then there's the issue of having looked like a corpse all week...

Oh god don't get me started with the colds. I've barely been able to work the past month cause of it. Been ill 3 times now in the past month

Actually getting me down now cause I was spose to be working today and yesterday and it seemed like such a promising weekend. I didn't feel well yesterday but thought I'd power through. Never again! If i'm ill i'm ill, this isn't the kind of job where you can just get through it plus it's not fair on the clients. So did a booking yesterday and by the end of it felt absolutely dreadful. Had to go home and now have a full on cold. Beyond pissed off cause I had a guy who I saw on Thursday want to see me again and a lot of other genuine enquiries and I really need the money but no way could I carry on. Thank god for savings!

Sorry to hear that sweetcheeks! Yes it's really annoying, particularly as sods law states that everyone will contact you when you can't see them!!

Hope you're better soon. Mine is at the tail end now but still not pleasant - and even if I feel I'm no longer contagious, it doesn't remove the fact that I'm still shuffling around in my dressing gown with a horrible crusty nose!! (sorry)

Yes I do understand about colds.

I have taken so many days off this month over feeling iffy and then the symptoms finally descended into a nasty 'flu.

Hoping to work from Wed again.

Think we lose lots of revenue this way oh well!

I won't be in a hurry to offer French kissing, which I do 'at discretion', for a week or two either.
