    Default few escorting questions

    id like to start off saying that i am very thankful for all of the information you guys have provided to help me and others out.

    I was wondering about posing ads and the amount you can charge. Is it possible to post an ad were you dont show your face and still charge a high amount?

    what percentage of your customers are regulars vs. first timers

    also is it too much to be working in another state to work where you think you might have better customers? (nyc?? or some other state ....) and travel back home. do you think a big city will have wealthier customers? have you ever traveled and escorted?

    do you think using wigs, fake tattoos and some photoshop might make your ad look different enough so that no one will find out?

    You might want to add kaylam on yahoo and talk to her about this but here is my take on things... and I have alot of experience in this business. I have been lurking for two months stalking her posts and everything she has posted on this board on escorting is spot on.

    1.) Yes you can not show your face and command a high rate. I have seen ladies command up to 1k not showing their face. So it is possible. Guys Do love mystery!

    2.) What percentage of MY customers are regulars? 90%! I do not see new clients and If I do he must be willing to pay me a crazy insane amount of money.

    3.) Yes I have traveled and escorting and guess what? You will not always hit big in the big cities. For example, I went to NY and made 1k which was lousy. I was expecting at least 7k that week. I have made more outside of NY and hoackey towns! It is unbelievable the amount of money I've made in Augusta, GA (for example).. Not everyone can make money there. What works for one won't always work for you.

    4.) Heh suck it up and just post the pics and BLUR your face. If you do NOT want anyone to recognize you think crop and blur... crop and blur..

    Good luck!

    - lots of women wear wigs
    - 75% block out/blur the face
    - many established escorts travel

    Don't charge less than $400 an hour. Anything less than $400 or ..even $300 an hour is pointless.

    Screen (MalayaTaylor has a great screening article on this site.. you should study it)

    If you're one of those people that know how to read people. If your instincts never fail you ... then escorting could be something for you. I say this because your instincts will save your life/keep you from getting busted!

    If you want to do this for the glitz and glamour.. do not charge less than $400. I have heard "it's not as glamourous as people think it is".. Those people have never been escort. Escort is very glamourous only if you love what you do. I can't imagine anyone loving what they do if they were seeing guys at 200 an hour (I'm talking U.S dollars)

    Good luck and Go for it! Anyone with street/book smarts can bank escorting! if you love sex .. go for it! If you just want to manipulate men , use and abuse them then find something else.

    i guess its just personal preference and wht you can handle with how many clients you meet every day.
    i would only do this if i was able to make considerably more than dancing. and it is a big decision, for me anyway. id want to charge between 600- 800 and hopefully keep those clients. other escorts in my area are charging 300 or around that =(

    yes, getting in trouble is a big reason.Another one for me is my significant other. I know he will be "ok" if i wanted to do it.. its just that i know that he wont just be "ok" even if he says so

    I suggest if you are starting as an independent.. no agency.
    Start at the going rate for your area or slightly higher (by 20,40, or 50$)..
    Noone knows you, who you are or how good your services are.
    I say this because you have to establish reviews and word of mouth first among johns(hobbiests)...That you are safe, worth your rate and there is no bait and switch or scam etc.

    If it was so easy to simply charge double or triple amount (right off the bat) of the general going rate in any area.. wouldn't there be many more women doing so?

    edit; I had to read this post over again to understand what you meant. You said she should raise it higer than the average in her city not work for $20, 40.. which is what I thought you meant at first. When I first started escorting I was charging $300 with NO reviews now Im charging $400.
    Why is everyone not escorting? Because they think we get beaten and raped on a daily basis and totally ignorant about the whole thing. Yes there are ladies that start off charging $1000 an hour. They also have a side business and get lots of request for their escort services. There are ladies that have a no review policy. There are ladies that are UTR and stay busy all year. You do not need reviews to make it in this business. It depends on the girl and how she chooses to work!

    It is not even considered a side business to me at this point. It is something I do whenever I feel like it. I do not rely on it for income.

    I agree.

    You can always raise your rates. If you are looking to be lower volume you can go ahead and charge what you'd like ~ but in all honesty you may not get the response you want. The escort business is effected by the economy just like anything else. If you want to work, keep your rates competitive.
