Question... After the initial contact... If a client decides to not hire you, would you prefer to know the reason, or just say "no thanks", or prefer they just drop the conversation?

ROFLMAO! No, of course not, but would did the goat think?

Have you considered bypassing the restraining order and switching to sheep or horse, instead? Maybe even a threesome with both?

LOL Do you regret that it was a misunderstanding or that it was unfortunate?

Just go over with him what you are looking for... For Example: "The idea sounds appealing as long as you're both into me. I wasn't looking for a voyeur show and like to participate and even be the meat in a sandwich. And definitely into 3way kissing. How does that sound?"

He's now in my neck of the woods... any more recent info?

Sensual Massage is focused on the actual touch of the skin. Stimulating the skin and the senses. It may be very soft, or firm. It may excite and even turn you on and it may include a happy ending. But its goal is to stimulate and soothe. Therapeutic Massage is focused on the muscle and tissues underneath the skin. It includes many portions of the sensual massage, but it is focused on moving the muscles, breaking down adhesions, stretch, increase the range of movement and enhancing the body fluid movement. It may turn you on and it may or may not include a happy ending. But its goal is to relax. Erotic Massage is focused on erogenous zones and turning you on. It is meant to stimulate your awareness, instead of your skin. Your skin may be stimulated, but the focus is on increasing your awareness and sexual presence. It may include stroking your cock or edging you. It may include your nipples, nape of your neck, hands, feet, ass, taint, cock, or anything else that may turn you on and heighten your senses. It is usual to expect a happy ending, or use it as a prelude to something more sexual. A happy ending is not unusual. But the goal is to turn you on. It more blunt terms... sensual is rubbing; therapeutic is massaging; and erotic is foreplay. Just my tuppence.

That depends on what you mean by stable. Everyone will always lose clients/customers, over time. They will move away, die, find other things to be interested in, be lost to competitors, their lives change and move on, blah, blah, blah... If by stable you mean that you have a consistent influx of 'replacements' to offset your lost clients through 'attrition', then stable is fine. If by stable you mean that you have all the clients you want and aren't thinking about what happens next, or what happens if you lose a client, then stable is really stagnant.

Back to the same point. I agree that a face pic missing alone may not be a deal breaker. However, an escort's profile, ad text, reviews, etc... may never get looked at. A "walk away free" policy is a great idea, but if the client never gets to the policy, then it doesn't compensate. May absolutely be true. Other escorts may be trying to keep some measure of confidentiality. Those providers probably don't need to build or replace their client base through a site like RM. Nothing wrong with that. Old expression I was taught... a business can go up, or, a business can go down. But if a business is stagnant, then the business failed.

As I've said before, the more obstacles you put in the way, the more difficult it is for a potential client to be drawn into that initial contact. As a salesperson for yourself, you want to be able to draw clients in. It is part of the sales process. So, without a face pic, the rest of your ad has to draw me in. If you throw onto that "Ask Me" for things, or poor ad text, or limited ways to contact you, or come across as limited, or etc... then I'm not going to bother contacting.

Thanks for adding your perspective Parker. I wonder if you could let us know how you perceive the deposit has helped and hurt? Just curious how you see it from a marketing perspective.

This is probably never going to happen. Especially for the short duration meetings. You'd have to meet to arrange a deposit, or there are methods for credit card payments, but they have other issues, such as merchant fees, chargebacks, and lack of complete discretion.

Bump. Any info?

As long as we're discussing morality like this, what difference would it make if they had a criminal record? A criminal record doesn't give you an understanding. Turning someone away because of the existence of a criminal record is just fear mongering. If you're looking for a reason not to hire someone, great, don't hire them. But, once a person has been convicted and done their time, shouldn't we be giving the person a chance? I don't carry all my extra cash, or all of my valuable, or everything I have, to an encounter. Anymore than I carry them to the doctor's office or the gym. I'm not inviting someone to my home and into my office or safe. And I'm not hiring for an overnight with someone I haven't met. So, if they have a criminal record, so what? If they can do the job I hire them to do, and I take the same standard precautions, then, ok by me.

He's back in FTL, any info?

I've not seen him before, but based on his style of ad, I wouldn't consider him. His pricing for a massage is way over the top. And his comment that he was voted the best masseur in the universe would probably be issued be "The MassageBiMike Universe Committee". I am always thrown into skepticism when someone makes an outrageous claim. But, I haven't tried him, so I'm only giving my impressions of his ad.

He's had a lot of "good reviews" on RM after this, but I wonder...
