Not all clients need me to finish, and when I don’t have to do this for every client, I can see more of them. I’m shooting with a musket here, it takes a while to reload. 

In my experience Mintboys and Jock2go yielded nothing but scammers. I stick to rentmen, rentmasseur, and a4a.

When I advertised on Mintboys all I got was scammers pretending to be sugar daddies.

The way RM presents safe sex options is misleading. “Anything goes” seems to imply no questions asked or “raw is law”. I always put Ask Me so at least the client might think to provide THEIR sexual health info before asking me to have unprotected sex. Of course, this never happens, but it’s a nice thought.
They also reduce photo quality for “better user experience” which means they don’t want high-res photos and videos bogging down their servers. Many clients seem to assume if a photo is blurry it must be older, which is not always true.

You don’t know what I am 😆

As a customer, you’re entitled to be a little bit demanding. We live in a society where “the customer is always right”. Plus as a provider I don’t want you to feel like I’m boxing you in. Your appointment should happen at a time that is most convenient *for you*. The provider is getting paid, part of the business means being “on call” to some extent.
I think you mentioned earlier you try to provide options or at least a ballpark idea of availability… which helps a lot. As a provider sometimes it feels like I have to tweeze out what the client wants and when they want it, while others are extremely effective at communicating their desires, needs, expectations, availability, etc. 

I am a masseur and just trying to figure out why clients constantly attempt to defer to my schedule or availability?
Example: client inquires about rates, I provide rates, I ask when the client is looking for a session, client says something vague like “I’m flexible”.
But I’M supposed to be the flexible one, as the person providing the service am I not meant to be available when needed? Is it not professional for me to adapt my schedule to my clients, and not the other way around? Please help me understand why clients can’t tell me what/when they want service, or assume that being paid to see them is such a hassle or burden. 

Congratulations on your “real job” 🙄 providers are not mind readers, if you can’t be bothered to provide your availability, you can’t resent us for not knowing. 

FWIW I have several family members and friends who are retired from regular jobs yet still try to call me while I’m at work.  It’s like they magically forgot that people generally can’t have full phone conversations while they’re at work… or maybe their work environments allowed for that.

That’s like telling every bathhouse, hookup app and RM site to only allow SINGLES to meet and mingle. It would be a project 2025 for real, for real 🤣 

This seems universal everywhere I go. I assume some of these are other providers looking to undercut my rates (extremely common in my home market). I’m not good enough to get a consulting fee, but I definitely understand why you charge one.

It comes across as flaky most of the time. If you know you want to see me, you also know your schedule and the times that work best for you. Please provide those and allow the provider to choose the one that’s best for them.

This is (part of) why I have been charging deposit and consultation. If someone just wants to “inquire”, I have a $20 (is that a bargain or what?) consultation that is needed to discuss. However, if someone just sends the deposit, that’ll leave the option open to book me whenever they figure it out.
However, I don’t have time to do this; like one escort described:

Now, if RentMen ever decided to start paying us $20 an hour to reply to messages…like a call center does, maybe people wouldn’t mind as much. Until then, who has the patience for that nonsense 🤷🏾‍♂️ 

I'm a client and I think it's bad practice in general without letting the provider know when I have the availability to reduce any back and forth. When I try to schedule with a provider, I give a general timeframe of when I'm looking to book. If the provider is available, great. If not, not a problem.
If there is a need for further discussion with flexibility, that should be discussed later after the initial timeframe doesn't work.

I don’t think requesting availability for a specific day and time comes off as demanding, but to each their own. In my experience, giving people too many options often leads to endless back-and-forth rather than a quick resolution. This gets even more frustrating with some providers who have the attention span of a chipmunk and take hours to respond to each message.

I don’t get it. When I hire someone, my process is straightforward: after agreeing on the services and rate, I ask, "Are you available [day] at [time] for [length of service]?" If the answer is yes, we have a deal. If not, I work with them to find a date and time that suits us both. Am I the only one who handles it this way?

the issue is that I asked an open-ended question on purpose and they deflected. it’s THEIR appointment, that THEY should set according to THEIR preference. 
Would you call up a restaurant looking for a reservation “anytime” or do you throw out some options since you’re the customer?

I think we’re talking to the same clients 🤣
