    Default Starting an Escort Agency?

    Hello lovely ladies of SW, how are you? I have a concept that I am puzzling over. I am considering starting an escort agency in my city. My city isn't super big but I think that I want to do very high class ladies. Most of the girls here are... questionable. Out calls only. Maybe two or three girls to start. It would also be straight cash first. I know some do credit cards but that just won't work for me straight off.

    What do you think, good idea? Bad idea? Does anyone here have any experience with this. Not just going solo but actual agency management? Oh, I am in Canada by the way, (in case anyone cares).

    I would love every little bit of imput from everyone. Bring on the ideas! Thanks girls, love you all!

    depends on where you are in Canada. Good luck finding decent girls. Been there done that, money isn't what it used to be.

    I am in Canada as well, Toronto actually 2 agencies just started, do you have money to start up advertising to hire girls, drivers, where will you be advertising. and what city are you in.

    also are you hiring a photographer, what about a website. some cities do better then others.

    I'm in British Columbia, and not even in Vancouver, like I said my city is on the smaller side, not TINY but smaller. So far I can cover advertising and a photographer if needed (my photographer is kick ass) but right now I'm not even thinking about a website. Like I said at the moment I am thinking of starting off REALLY small, maybe 2-3 girls. Everything is still in the planning stages. I'm still trying to see if it would even actually be worth it.

    Well there is alot to consider if your starting out an agency or being indie.

    2 to 3 girls would be a nice start, but what will keep everyone happy is the type of clients your getting which means the way you advertise.

    where you advertise pretty much determines your client list and also your screening proccess.

    you could make a website with all the girls listed on one site or make a website where each girl has thier own page.

    either using escortsite.com or hiring a web designer.

    ^^ This is coming from my completely escort-inexperienced mind, but I would think maybe a website would be one of the first things to set up, particularly if you're looking towards high-end clients such traveling businessmen?

    Alot of escorts do well with just making sure they have thier ads posted on a regular basis a website does help weed out clients and make sure that you get more serious clients, but if you starting on low over head making sure you have the right type of ads is the key.

    My advice: STAY AWAY FROM CRAIGSLIST. Backpage is fine .. It's not about where you advertise but HOW you advertise. Keep it classy and you'll get classy clients.

    Canada Craiglist listings are alot different then american craiglist listings since outcalls in Canada is legal.

    but Canada most of the bigger cities have over populated with agencies and some indies. so sometimes it can be fustrasting working here.

    Uggg yeah. Seeing as how my city is so small I really wouldn't be able to get it to the height and caliber of agency that I am wanting. And honestly, I would rather be an escort than have to manage them ,*eyeroll*, dra-ma! I would really love to move back to London (England) and work either independantly, or for one of the really high class agencies there. So much more opportunity. And I really miss England. I think that would be the best. Top end escort in London. Ahhhh I can see it now...lol

    Aria, I used to run my own escort service. I only had 3 girls, and this was many years ago, everything is different now. Plus, I'm not familiar with Canadian law. If you need some insight though, feel free to PM me. My biggest fear was getting busted. It's one thing if I did something stupid, but to risk having my face plastered all over the news because of what somebody else did...that's a different story. I made money, but it was soo nerve-wracking, I can't honestly say it was worth it.

    Also, I found this thread because I did a search on traveling escorts. I am free to travel, and was searching to see if I could find the names of some agencies that would take me on. If you have any clients that may be interested in seeing me...maybe we could work something out. Just an idea...!

    Any news on the agency, are you working independently in your city (Canada), for me Toronto is over populated with agencies they aren't really independent friendly these agencies but since I am no longer with agencies it is much easier for me to control my business.

    I'm working independently now myself...it's kind of slow for me, only getting like 2 calls per week. I just started back in the game though...and everything has changed so much! I have ALOT to learn, as far as promoting myself and getting my name out there. The only thing I've done so far is post on backpage. I've got to create a website and advertise on eros, and other places I've read about on here. I am free to travel, so I thought that would be cool, just for a change. At home I will stay indie.

    I am in desperate need of a photographer. I have answered about 3 ads from amatuer photographers on craigslist, looking to build their portfolio and willing to trade pics for time. Everybody always flakes out on me though. I don't have the cash to pay anybody right now, but damn...you'd think I was an ax murderer the way these guys stand me up, or don't get back to me! Why do they even bother posting ads to begin with? Crazy!

    I ran my own booking service for a short while it was MAD fun and easy money I quickly realized how annoying girls really are. I could NOT take it. The bickering, the wining and being blamed when the girl didn't get any business. I worked with 6 girls but it then got down to 4 girls then I hired 2 more. Let's just say I didn't take stealing lightly. MY fee was a very flat rate of $75 an hour. I throughly screened the gents. The girls would tell you that they never had a date "go wrong". I built the website using escort site.com and then I move it to the blogger platform ($10 a year) I didn't spend money advertising at first but I did post on TER and BD to get clients with MY personal reputation (very reputable provider) and to get the name out there and THEN I started placing ads. It is hard work yes. I once booked a girl a 2800 overnight and she was so excited, she has fun but then when she did not get a call the next day I was the big bad wolf....Yeah I rather take my own calls than deal with that shit.

    Malaya, again...I did all of mine BEFORE internet! LoL! I miss those days...it was CRAZY busy...mad, mad money back then. Everything has changed so much, even the clientele is so different. Unless it's because I'm older, it's the clientele I'm attracting now perhaps. These days everybody wants that gf experience, everybody wants to kiss and cuddle...it's so weird. Well, just different.

    I read a thread on here about coke heads and the money they spent on the cam girls. When I was escorting before EVERYONE was a cokehead...doctors, lawyers, even cops. I don't party anymore, and even back then just a little. But I made tons and tons of money, just doing a line or two...and running around somebody's house for hours in my bra, thong or panties and heels, just chatting up a storm! People on coke don't have a sex drive either, so they never pestered me for sex, or trying to get me to do anything that was illegal! They just wanted a hot chick to party with, lol!

    Ahhh, the good old days, how I miss them!

    Yes I understand you worked before the internet Garbrielle. I listed those sites for those wanting to start their own agency now.
    -----

    I have never experienced with coke or any other drug for that matter and I also don't drink. I like being aware of my surroundings way too much to get "loose" with a client. I would have made NO money back then being that I don't "party". My clients now (as an independent) are Lawyers, Doctors.. I recently had a wall street fat cat fly down from NY to see me. My CPA is a regular. If any of them did coke/drugs in front of me I'd ask them to leave IMMEDIATELY! Drugs scare the living shit outta me. I couldn't imagine NOT being in control.

    Gabrielle, When I FIRST started escorting I worked for an agency. She did not do a good job screening. Yes all my clients were VIP clientele but they weren't all sober. I DID have one guy try to get me to sniff coke and I told him "I couldn't do it for medical reasons" LOL! Even if he was willing to pay me extra I wouldn't do it.. It just goes against what I believe in. When I have to alter my mind to have fun/to make money then I know it is time to stop doing what I'm doing. I couldn't imagine getting high and fucking up my persona or even spending my money on drugs when i can be paying bills and traveling. NOW that I am independent it clearly state on my website that I do not condone doing drugs of any kind and if they do it around me I will leave.

    Escorting is a very fun job when you're not compromising your boundaries I feel.

    I guess all the cokeheads are busy calling up other girls. I have never had someone asked me if I partied or if I would party since becoming independent. I am guessing the reason is that my rates are way higher than most in my area and they're not willing to pay them anyway so why ask ya know? I'm glad that things have changed. I feel very safe since going indy.

    P.s you know they say coke brought the price of p**sy down because women were willing to do anything for it. Eh well my rates are high now but I plan to raise them even higher after my new pics are up.

    Yes, I'm the same way. I have to be in control as well, and almost never drink when on a call. I will have an occasional glass of wine but that's it. Actually, I've had one drink with a customer, and it was my 2nd time seeing him. I need to be aware of my surroundings too, you have to be. I would never put myself in a dangerous situation. You can't put a price on safety, that's for sure.

    I worked for an agency at the time as well. It was outcall, but I had to sit in the office from 6pm-6am five nights a week. It was huge, there were anywhere from 5-10 girls working on any given night. We had it set up like a house, and we were sooo busy, I was anyway, me and one other girl...she was the popular blonde, I was the popular brunette! There really wasn't a lot of down time for the two of us at all. Plus the partiers, they would call several times a week. We knew them all, very well. Sometimes they would be ordering another girl up as the first one was walking out the door, lol! We had a driver, too...who sat and waited for us outside. I was young also, so to do a line a sit and chat for a few hours, was a fun way to make money...and I had security right out front. Oh and when I did that line, I didn't drink. Most people who do coke NEED that drink to take the edge off, I never did. Lots of water, tho!

    I would never do ANYTHING like that today, esp being indie. LMAO at you can't do it for medical reasons, that's too cute!

    I haven't come across anybody doing drugs or being high (that I can tell) so far (since I've been back) I'm glad I haven't because I think it would be a little ackward, to say the least. But those coke guys, they used to rip through their cash, that's for sure!

    I am a high-end ebony provider. High-end according to the guys here in the carolinas but I consider my rates mid range (around $475) There are not a lot of good looking Quality black providers here at all so I take full advantage of it

    Yes Safety first! I have walked into a sting before (working for the agency) and the guy pretty much let me go because I didn't incriminate myself (playing dumb) He was trying to get me to admit that I was there to have sex for money and I wouldn't. After that experience I made sure when I went indy that If I were to do an outcall to a hotel I'd call the front desk to confirm that the name the client gave me is the name on the room. (This guy didn't want to show me his ID)

    When I worked for the agency I didn't have to sit in the office. I cammed at home while waiting to be called for work. when I had a date i'd drive to the appointment without security. OOh I always felt safe UNTIL I got the cokehead LOL!

    I was also sent to a 4-5 star hotels/neighborhoods for outcall. I swear If not for the VIP escort agency I worked for I probably would have been one of those girls selling myself short online.

    And you GO girl for having somebody fly down to see you! Mad respect! My rates are higher than everybody elses in my area too...but not as high as I know I can go...or what I deserve. I love what I do, when I said it was different, I didn't mean that in a negative way. I couldn't run around crazy like I used to, I'm too old for that now, haha!

    Everybody else's rates run about $100-$150 in my area. Yes, they are that low. I have mine set at $275. I want to raise mine, and I'm sure I can and get the money that I would ask for. I'm very out-going, genuinely nice, can hold an intelligent conversation, always dressed to the nines...and everybody tells me how I have exceeded they're expectaions. I just need new pictures, it is really holding me back, not being able to find a photographer.

    I apologize Aria if what I did was hi-jack your thread. Madame Aria that is

    Join model mayhem and get free pics like I did. Post some pictures of yourself and you will get bombarded by photogs wanting to shoot you. Put on your profile that you are seeking TFCD arrangements. Craigslist is great for this type of stuff too BUT you will get a lot of people just wanting free pictures.

    Damnnn @ 100/150 an hour... different strokes for different strokes I guess. You know what? It also depends on OUR cost of living. Where I live costs me around 1200 a month there is no way I can be going on $100 dates.. Ya know? $275 is more than what I made working with the agency it is still VERY good money. My dear don't be afraid to raise your rates. I was once at 300 an hour and raised them to $475 an hour. You should most definetly raise your rates as you see fit. Even if you wanted to charge $500 you will get less but longer appointments and most of all, will be catering to a more elite group of men.
