Having lived through a few decades - ok a lot of decades - I have a feeling that this recession is going to get a lot lot worse before it gets better (if it gets better at all) and I really cant see work picking up that much - not even in a few years - not to the way it used to be before so many started flooding the market.  :(

I couldnt agree more i would hate to be new starting out in this business as i think that a lot of new girls struggle and struggle badly to see even a few clients a week
thankfully it the one thing that being older and having been around for a long time works in my favour and probably a few of the other laidies in that because we are well established most of have regulars and are reasonably well known in the punting /escort industry which can sometime be our saving grace

every week i see more new girls appear in my area
charging such stupid amounts

my prices are the same as when i started 8 yrs ago
last week was my deadest week ever,i did one appt all week!

and saturdays for me are not worth turning your phone on years ago saturdays and sundays were the best days

things have certainly changed from a few years back everyone is being carefull most of my regulars im seeing every month instead of every week

every week for me is different up and down like my knickers  :P
im me take it or leave it

I find the phone is still ringing and I?m still able to meet weekly targets but to say it?s a struggle would be an understatement. I?m finding I?m having to work longer hours. I?m also finding that the calibre of clients seeming to be going down too. The good guys are harder and harder to come by...

Tonight is so slow I'm thinking of giving up and just ordering a chinese!!!!  I did have an overnighter booked for tonight, but he's turned out to be a TW (either that or he's been abducted by aliens!!)  :FF

This has to be my slowest week since February - I'm soooo bored I'm doing my washing up when theres only 2 cups to be done!

Zero phone calls all day, so I started firstly trying to sign up with some free directories, after 40 minutes the first one would not let me complete (twice)  :FF.  So then I started doing some camming the first camming I've done in ages.......

Are all the married dudes taking Jubilee week off?  :(

It's the end of the month, and now that everyone has got over the novelty of the sun and the heat, the last thing they probably want to do is expel any extra energy having sex!

The last couple of weeks have been awful. I haven't seen it so quiet. My phone literally hasn't rang once since friday. I did 2 hours last week and I'm off to South Mimms tomorrow. I hope to god I make some money as I'm breaking into the rent to pay the hotel.  :FF :FF :FF :FF

The week before last week (before the hot weather) and the week before that were the first weeks that I have ever struggled with bookings in my time of being an escort. I think I only did 3 jobs the first week and 2 the second. I was getting a little concerned. But as always it's picked up again and I'm getting at least the two bookings I want each day again. I think it's just a quiet time but I do believe it always seems to pick up with this job.


I find that good regular clients and overnight bookings seem to get me through the quieter times.

That's the dilemma I face.

Overnights and long appts have gotten more difficult for me (spending all that time with someone and usually trying with all your might). But at the same time, it pulls me out the ruts! I mean, when you go 2 weeks with little to no bookings, an overnight on the horizon can easily turn things around in an instant.

This month was like that. One 4 hour evening followed by an overnight later in the week. It's money. But then, I didn't have another client in nearly 2 weeks after that and I spent like CRAZY. And since those 2 weeks ago, I've only pulled in a little less than $500. Not to mention spending on ads and travel always takes out $100-200 a month on it's on. Seems like a lot of money but then I wonder, where did it all go?

Bookings are quite slow at the mo for me too. Odd one here and there, or wanting times when I'm not available. So I've fallen back on camming and my god is it busy! Seems they're all online to get more wank for their buck lol
