Working at high end agency
« on: 14 December 2024, 02:07:08 pm »
Hi everyone

Not sure if anyone has experience with this one. I'm applying to work for a very high end agency in London but have never worked for an agency before. Does anyone know what it's like, how many bookings you can expect and how you are treated by staff? I probably won't be accepted lol but just want to be prepared in case,

Thanks x

The high priced agencies don't normally get you more than a couple of bookings a week. Maybe more to begin with. Most high end escorts need to be signed up to lots of different agencies. How they treat their staff(not really staff cos you are still self employed) depends on the agencies. You will probably need a nice flat in central which you work alone from.  And do outcalls too. You will also need very good professional pictures.
You will need to invest alot of money into your presentation. Expensive clothes, hair, nails etc. You might have to offer clients drinks like champagne. Some agencies allow and encourage cocaine use.

I would apply for every agency possible. If they don't treat you well just dump them. There are so many London. 

You can do well as a high end escort but lots just end up going back to working for average rates since the high end money is inconsistent.

You don't work for them, they work for you and a pimp is a pimp no matter how shiny their website or how airbrushed their photos. It's important because you still have to sort your own tax/NI, and you won't get sick pay, holiday pay or maternity rights :)

Judging by previous threads here, the punters tend to be more entitled, demanding and unplessant too, although that'll depend on the marketing (certainly not on the screening, since there probably won't be any).

When I first started out I joined one..the lady would call me and say I had a incall at x time do you want to take it? I didn't have a flat and I didn't live in Central London .. so was a bit of pain finding somewhere last minute every time. Some of the guys were really easy bookings I remember a 1.5hour outcall was only a bj and I left. Others was a whole drama and making me work non stop the whole time..
A lucky outcall overnight which only lasted 2 hours as he got paranoid and had to leave for work for some reason but that was 1.6k for barely any work.

It was a few bookings a week for 2 weeks and then it went dead so might be something to do for quick cash. But for me working independently gave me more freedom and sustainable income.

My experience with agencies seems to tally with this; starts off OK busy wise, but peters out. I find the quality of clients not great, either a lot of drug dealers/addicts or pedantic, picky, demanding men who like having a theoretical 'boss' they can whinge to if you didn't do quite enough back flips for them . Sometimes I feel like when you are new they give you the most difficult guys that other workers have stopped wanting to see. As someone else said, I think agencies might be OK if you are just trying to get some money together quickly... but I've seldom come across any long term positive experiences of agencies, expensive ones or otherwise.

Is there some particular reason you want to do agency work rather than indie? If you want to have a 'charge high/low volume' model, I think you'd get a nicer client base if you were indie and had a good marketing strategy.

Thanks for all your advice. I want to apply because it might get me a bit of extra work that's all as being indie is really slow for me at the minute. I've got an incall in zone 1 and providing champagne ect isn't a problem. The rates will be £600 ph+  so I'm guessing if I get an addict it'll be a cokehead lol I'll give it a go and see what happens.

I understand about demanding clients which is really off putting. I'm hoping to just get foreign business travelllers really,  English guys are usually the worst x

£600ph? Will you get 1 client a month haha 😄 I think the one I joined was close to £300 ph and that went dead after a few weeks. If your indie prices are over 300ph it may be slow due to this

If I was not busy I would consider reducing my prices. Very few people are going to want to pay 600ph regardless of how you look. I mean I guess there is no harm in trying but I would think you would be better off working for agencies that charge around 200-350ph. And even then you probably will need to join quite a few.
Can't you just drop you independent rates to be more competitive?

I'm on £200 an hour as an indie and with the cost of my incall I can't afford to lower my rates. I would if I could x

If you are already working as an indie at a lower rate, it might work to just get a few scatters of bookings with an expensive agency, 'every little helps'. Another alternative if to maybe expand your marketing and a bit of extra paid marketing (do you have a website?) and maybe tie that with putting your price up. Thats more of a long term solution though and agency work as a bit of stop gap?

I worked at a high end agency for years, and there is no difference, except for the clients being more entitled and arrogant. They also had a habit of being rougher and pushing boundaries, but obviously, there are exceptions to the rules. I had fewer bookings too because it was more expensive. I was also made to have sex with the agency owner to prove that I knew what I was doing, and because I was young, I did  ::) ::) ::)

Aaaargggh!!  I sometimes wonder if this still happens with new and inexperienced sps. I suspect it might. 🙁

I see makes sense, maybe you could do short bookings for half the price or blow and go for £60/70 two of these will be £120/£140 for 30 mins of work which isn't much effort. Maybe could add this in as an offer on slow days for quick/easy cash?

I have worked for loads of agencies. They get really shitty if you say you’re doing certain hours and then get tired and ask to stop early. So only give the hours that you can definitely take bookings.

Sometimes they fine you if you don’t do this or someone complains.

They also know they have a point of reference back to the agency so sometimes clients will use this to their advantage.

A lot of them don’t like you having adultwork and no matter how much you try to hide your adultwork review sights will link the profiles.

One agency which is well known for London wouldn’t even let the girls working speak to each other if we saw each other for a cigarette outside the hotel. He would lurk around the hotel and come to the room and see if any of us were hanging out together.

By all means try it. But it always ends in tears and you get fed up with them controlling you.

When I went independent I had hundreds of agency clients saying they called to book me and were always told I was fully booked. He was giving my work to other people.

Cannot agree with you more. Even if you put the same prices on aw or the ones after comission they still got shitty with you.
Not so many bookings from them anyway. As someone mentioned they have their favourites and to be honest with you even if you price yourself +600 ph on adult work you’d probably get more work anyway and clients are happier to pay you that price coz they know you’ll get all that money by yourself. None of them like the idea that you paying comission to someone who advertises you.
