Actually this thread was started in 2008 and has consisted of pretty much the same posts with minor variations for the last sixteen years. The rest of the above is so preposterous I'll leave you to your tinfoil hat.

Fucking terrible, still making targets but have to scrape for it, entertain people I normally wouldn’t (crap comms), and had 2 deliberate no shows . And I’m normally busy.

Wtf.

The price of hotels is fucking up my profit royally I honestly don't know why it's still like this it's been like this for two years also why don't there seem to be any reports of this in the news I can't understand how anyone can afford to stay at a hotel anymore. Even the shitty budget option hotels in London can be charging £150-£200 on a weekday for a room now it's absolutely ridiculous. I cant understand whose actually paying these prices I've seen shitty easyhotel rooms with no windows going for up to £200 a night like whose paying that much for those crappy options those rooms used to be like £26-£36.

I might need to look at getting a flat soon I can't afford to be staying at hotels anymore it's far too expensive.

Today is slow, Never bothering with viva St again just TW. Had a guy sending me his face pics snd asking for me to send him one, So I'm not bothering to see him. Yesterday some TW pretending that he was messaging me on AW so I could see His feedback, He was not just absolute TW. Lots of people I've seen asking when I'm available but not getting back to me. I've made some profit so not out of pocket but definitely not worth 5 days of sitting about and having so many TW to go through.

A client today did say that his mates in the building trade are quiet, I guess money is being held on to more.

All new ads attract timewasters - it takes time to block them all (like everybody else on the site has already) and settle into the genuine punters. Vivastreet is like the newspaper ads used to be, in my experience at least (so lots of daft calls/texts to plough through but the actual punters are lovely).

Well that's why I got my flat just over four years ago, and here I am

It would need to be the slowest news day ever for 'hotels in London are expensive' to make any sort of headline, to be fair.

Was thinking I'd try the weekend after having a very slow week and now just seen that there is Rugby and football on all weekend so maybe not 

Unfornately I just think so many ladies are now doing this job. And not just escorting, webcamming, onlyfans etc.

So clients money is being spent on webcamming and Onlyfans etc (when they can't afford as many physical bookings).

And as so much choice your getting clients book you, then choose another escort coz they are cheaper or whatever reason and don't bother letting you know and don't show up.

You also have the addition of the cost of living, a recession so less money around and on top of that expensive hotels and travelling costs. And more laides coming into profession due to cost of living crises.

I'm still earning my money, have quiet days here and there but also finding more no shows, less reliable regs. I used to be solid booked up front on tours now I maybe get 1 or 2 regs all tour and all rest new ones. And my quality of service hasn't gone down. I think regs got so much choice now of new touring escorts in the area.

But you really have to invest time and money constantly into your brand.

For example I regularly do new professional pics every few months, offer a range of services from gfe, fetish and roleplay, blog frequently and use all the featured advertising on escort directories and platforms to stay above competition and have a website. It's alot of work!

It used to be so easy before, just create your profile, throw a few pics up and you were busy all the time. And I used to get my pictures done once a year.

Now ladies have to do combinational of onlyfans, webcamming and escorting. I know some ladies work indie and agency as well and other ladies now have a regular job just to cover bills and escort on the side.

If you're slow all the time , you really need to analyse your advertising, get new photos, see what your rates are against competition or if touring seek areas with less competition.

It's alot of work to make decent money nowadays.

One nervous student and a load of calls from time wasters ..
