Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
Hi, so I'm in the midwest looking for a REPUTABLE booking agent. I've only been escorting for about a year and I have a good client base of regulars, but I haven't been getting many new clients. Mostly because I haven't had much time to advertise, screen, etc as I am a full time college student in addition to escorting.
If there are any booking agents with legitimate connections and knowledge, please get in contact with me. I would love to work with you. Prefer high end bookers!
Thank you!
EDIT: I have discovered this website if anyone knows the legitimacy of this person, let me know!

There's another thread about this - search and you'll find I posted a long list of verified booking agents/assistants.

blackashconsulting.com - Erin is wonderful, does web design but also does booker / assistant services. And she is affordable!
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
Well, I'm at a stand still again & considering going to a dif booker. Here's the backstory..
This is the second booker I've been through through an agency that I started w/ & while I finally really like working w/ this one, he's takin on regular work to obviously supplement his income like most of us do. And dude that's fine, I understand the struggle -I work a vanilla hotel job myself in the evenings; however, I went from becoming super busy when I switched got switched to him to now being dead & not even getting posted on ad sites or anything in a slow time (holidays, bizarre weather, u know). This is not good -if anything when its slow, we should be upping our hustle not stopping completely. He'll completely disappear on me when I'm supposed to be wide open taking appointments -I can text him & wait or text him repeatedly & then get a severely delayed response or no response at all because he's at work or picked up a double. I even set up a new website on companionfiles that I wanted to try instead of the basic wixsite site (looks more sleek & has bonus features) however; even asking repeatedly he still has used it or even attempted to switch or advertise w/ it -he sticks to the one he set up. I hate being forced to be a nag; its a pet peeve. I want to wait it out because I really like working w/ this guy but thats not smart business. I can't leave my bills in the negative or at a standstill because he is struggling as well.
I have contacted yourgfeassitant in the past when I was stuck w/ an Extremely unprofessional female through the agency that I started w/ but then didn't follow through after the agency switched me to current guy & things improved. Now I'm back a point 1 w/ my metaphorical dick in hand because he doesn't have time now.
I'm really interested in yourgfeassistant, but then also noticed blackashconsulting on this thread (I see she's a fellow Chicagoan, so I like that). I can't afford to pay a flat fee right now obviously, though. I'm used to paying 33% of my appointments to booker at the end of the week at the moment. Does anyone have experience with these two dif assistants? I'm a person that typically hates to leave something I'm comfortable w/ unless I have to -whats their rates or percentages typically; how has your success been long term w/ them; how easy are they to contact while working with (like if you need to take a sick day; cancel; or need to rearrange to squeeze another client in)? I would love some input from ladies w/ personal experience as to avoid wasting these assistants time if I wind up not using their services.
Any help ASAP would be awesome as it's been about a week & a half w/ no appointments and this isn't the first dead week or so in the last two. We're going into festival season so things should be picking up soon
Thank you, ladies!

Toni is yourgfeassistant and she is amazing from what I hear. She has years of experience and knows a ton about advertising. However, I believe she does charge a high percentage per appointment.
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
I do not know your rates but... 33% would be a lot of money over the course of a week if your taking more than a couple of appointments.. If your assistant is not working out fire him, period.. Change all your site and email account PW first in case he is salty.. if it’s slow season take a break from having someone assist you.. Take a few appointments without having to pay someone and than invest that money back into a new assistant who is truly there to help you do better!
I use a lady named Storm.. She has been in this industry for awhile and she screens very hard!
https://www.takenbystorm.biz
I tried to use another booker who wanted $550/week and I just could not commit! Storm is $200/week.. very reasonable and she is easy to get along with.. absolutely zero drama! She does ask gentlemen to screen 24 hours in advance but that was my policy beforehand.. I do not like last minute bookings as they tend to be the worst ones!
I answer all my repeat clients still, but I like that communication..
Everyone is looking for their assistant to do something different.. so ask questions.. I had interviewed 3 assistants before I hired Storm.. you want to know the person you are trusting with your information and your clients is good company..
Stay safe!
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
I commend Storm because that's a ton of work to do for only $200/week
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
Maritheassistant.com is used by a friend, poshladyassistant.com is also good to work with, good luck!
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
Her rates go by packages, some ladies pay more than others.. For a part time assistant for a part time escort, the arrangement is perfect..
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
I have decided to go with Toni. She seems really nice, has great reviews & like I can learn alot from her. I never had access to the email or control of anything before with the old booker & agency no matter how many times I asked or tried to make improvements or suggestions on what they were doing. In the end my old person was literally only posting me in backpage's massage section & still getting 33%. Plus he would randomly ask me to wire the deposit to him early rather than the end of the week -even though multiple wires cost me multiple fees. Im not an ATM, right, ladies?! Right. So I gave them a weekend notice letting them know I was going independent. I didn't expect to get the password the email to be honest. But it was worth a try, I've now been in contact with TER, Eccie & Erotic Monkey trying to change my email & webiste info. The booker was even being nice enough to send me an email that I can forward to TER stating that I do not have access to that email that was being used. Forward 20 mins later & he asks if I'm keeping the same name.... I'm like, yes, of course. Those reviews & photos are mine. If i did not keep the name then I woulsd have to scrap everything & start all over. He says I cannot keep the name as their business recycles the names & personas. Like wtf, a name is not that important to them & they can always think of a new one. I realize that this is his boss feeding this into his ear -but still, its just taking it petty now. I haven't been able to work, post, or book anything while trying to get started with Toni because we're waiting to get everything tied together neatly w/ TER & the reviews. The reviews have my personal pictures, descriptions & I earned the reviews. Yes it's only like 3 or 4 across the sites -but still, starting over with nothing would make it harder I feel. It's just horseshit that this agency/business is being so petty that they want to hang on to a name that serves no real purpose for them so that they can try to recycle it.
I've already sent TER & Eccie the email from the old booker showing that they won't relinquish the email. ANd I've screenshot all the texts. The old booker/agency said that even if I keep my name that there will just keep reusing my name at some point & that its only business & that all girls that go independant need to start from scratch. it's horseshit. I've been trying to get some of my regulars that usually come around try to book -but they are all occupied. it's amazing -they are not as territorial over the clients phone numbers that they all forwarded to me, but lord forbid that I want to keep the name that has all the reviews attached to me...wtf

Toni is amazing so I’m sure you’ll be fine with her assisting you

I agree & I look forward to it. I'm just pissed at what the old booker/business is trying to do. I'm just really hoping that I won't have to start a new identity or that they try to attempt anything malicious or further petty, you know. Its just ridiculous. Kinda put a damper on my excitement to get away & work with someone that will be more fair such as herself. Is it really hard to start over with a new identity that has no reviews? I'm trying to stay optimistic in keeping my name & reviews.
Re: Looking for a booking agent-I'm an indy escort
I just set up a verifyhim account & hoping to get verified soon -it mentioned if someone could send me a verifyhim.com invitation would help with the process? Anyone can help with that or explain that further to me.
I'm also seeing how insanely cheap backpage ads are now & getting even more pissed off that this former agency was charging me 33% & doing only the bare minimum work & treating me like an ATM. Oh well. I guess, chalk it up to a learning lesson. At least I know that I'll have shared access to everything & learn more with this new person! The learning lessons of a being a newb in the other work industry! Lol
