    Default Escorting in Virginia-Update!

    I've searched for escort agencies in VA and I haven't been able to find any. I'm a little nervous going indy without any experience, but I will do it if necessary. Is VA a profitable area? I can't do travelling yet because I don't have anyone to watch my child for extended periods of time.

    Have you actually called them and asked them how they screen and what their policies are?
    Do you know how much they charge and where they advertise? Have you done your leg work?

    Nope. I'll give them a call and some of the other agencies I've found. After I fill out an application, is it bad etiquette for me to call the agencies and ask if they got my application? Will I be able to choose when I work? I have a some what limited schedule because of my child, and I hope this won't hold me back.

    Don't see going with an agency as an "easy" option - it takes just as much research initially as going indy. You need to know what to look for, what to ask, what they should and shouldn't do, before you make a choice. You're putting your safety and your business in their hands, so you have to be sure they're the right match. Not feeling experienced enough to start off indy is fine, but usually that's because girls don't know how to screen properly. If you jump in with a shady agency that isn't screening much either, you'll be just as likely to come across a creeper/LE as if you would if you were indy.

    What should I look for to know if an agency is a bad agency?

    Well, in Virginia (I'm talking here about the Hampton Roads area) most escort agencies disguise themselves as private parties strippers agencies. Some agencies require you to have a business license. They take about 50% of the hourly rate (most agencies have a $100 per hour rate), but you get to keep all the tips. They request a security deposit (usually 200 bucks). Most agencies are the same, so your best bet is going indie. Also, due to the low income strippers in the area, most escorts are actually strippers from the clubs (clubs in that area are bikini only, stage only; no nudity, no lap dances). I danced in clubs and did some minor escort work in that area a while ago. The owner of the agency the OP is mentioning, has a few other "agencies"; different websites with different names with different girls.

    This is so spot on. I'll also add that most agencies are bait and switch/upsel agencies. If you notice, there are not any well reviewed agencies in Virginia - just check TER.

    Oh wow, that's what I was afraid of, only being advertised at $100/hour and getting 50%. I'd definitely be better off going indie.

    I found an agency in Richmond in the phone book. They don't have a website, which I was hoping they would. Hopefully that isn't a red flag. The woman told me that they advertise as a legal strip agency. I sent her a scanned copy of my ID and 2 pictures, and she said I was gorgeous and she looks forward to meeting with me on Saturday. What questions should I ask when I meet with her?

    WTF What the hell are you doing sending some random agency a scanned copy of your id????????????
    Dude you just sent a phone book agency with NO website your id - you need to stop and think about what it is you are doing.
    You say you are meeting her on Saturday - why couldn't you just show her your id in person. Makes no sense.

    Ugh, FML. I thought she was asking for it to make sure I wasn't LE.

    Hopefully nothing major comes out of it. I mean they are a phone book agency with no solid reputation but I can bet you money that they have at least 4 different names - Phone book agencies do that. I mean c'mon you sent your ID to a stranger. That's odd. I have showed my ID to an escort agency before but they were very reputable and I flashed it to them in PERON. Hopefully nothing comes out of it but next time just meet them in person and do what you need to do that way. This is a very shady business. People can fuck with you for no reason at all!

    Unless you're doing escorting in the DC area, the rest of Virginia sucks for escorting. Ah, I forgot to mention that in the area most sells tend to be on credit and you won't see your money until a few days later. The best thing to do is just being a "stripper" (who just wear a bikini and does nothing but stage dancing) and get your customers at the clubs. That's what most girls do anyways who are serious about making some money.

    I have to disagree with this. I was in Richmond VA two weeks ago and I made a killing in just two days. I drove an hour to VA beach and it royally SUCKED . Richmond VA is a gold mine especially for attractive ebony women because theyre used to overweight ones...

    @Lovelyme-where did you advertise? It looks like a lot of women advertise on Backpage but I would think that the clients would be of low quality. I hope that I have luck going indy because I need money and a new place bad

    I did not advertise on backpage. I'm going to send you a pm for your eyes only. It's a very reputable virginia board and it's far from sleazy unlike most escort boards.

    The other board you need to sign up for is a vouch only board. You will not get access to it until you have a few good reviews. It's called Preferredd411. It's GREAT for Richmond, va

    I think NOVA can still be profitable. I tried it one time and made $400 in an hour. I was young, dumb and curious. I went to the guys' place (who I met off of CL) and he wanted a GFE. Did the deed and never tried it again though he tried contacting me. I also made good money doing body rubs out of my place for $150 a "pop" for 30-60 min that I shared with my bestie through CL. I dressed in sexy lingerie and rubbed them down right on my made up bed. Played some Sade and lit some aroma therapy candles. Man, I was soooo stupid and this was back in 08'-09'! Gosh, I'm thinking of all the dumb shit I used to do back then and how easily I could've been caught. I remember selling panties to a guy in person, posing in lingerie for a guy with my face not in the pics, body rubs, caming and a sugar daddy. I made bank but it saddens mee to realize how stupid and fearless I was. Just be safe, I can obviously say the only screening I did was ask if the guy was a cop or not! Yikes!

    Have you ever thought about perhaps advertising to military or government guys? I mean, this area is chock full of them and a lot of them are lonely and willing to shell out as long as they know you're clean. I could be wrong as I know nothing about escorting except for the one time I did it.

    No prob. Could you tell me how it's changed? I'm curious. I do know that anything adult on CL is out of the question.

    NOVA is good, but Virginia Beach sucks. The military guys over there are cheap, and would expect things from free and will try to hustle you in order to lower your price. Trust me on that one.
