Mitch

Last 2 appointments I have made, with 2 different well reviewed escorts, both cancelled. One was day of, one was a couple of days notice. I appreciated them telling me instead of just not showing up, but it sure makes me question why I even bother with this hobby anymore.

Neither paid me a cancellation fee or offered to make it up to me .

These situations don't quite apply to the question I posted, but absolutely, if you're pissed about the cancellations, you might as well look elsewhere. Otherwise, that resentment might spoil what should be a good time. Regarding the last line of your reply, I think you're drawing a false equivalency between a client canceling and a provider canceling. Neither situation is ideal, but the stakes are slightly different. Unless you were just being cheeky, in which case, .

(clearly, I've got a type.)

I don't know, this might not need to be said but I'll say it at the risk of offending others. Please know it's not stated in the spirit of offensiveness...

 

Maybe I'm going out on a limb but an unswered request might—just might—be unanswered due to the tone of the request. Like a first impression. It matters and a rewind and do-over is almost never going to happen. In this age of digital connect and personal disconnect, in an initial meeting the care in which conversation begins and the thoughtfulness, respectfulness and politeness used can set the tone for everything that follows. In the case of Mitch, one already senses a cautious hesitation to put himself "out there" fully until trust of some sort is established. It might be mentioning something you see stated in his profile that you like or that you thought was funny or creative. His face pics are private and establishing some trust first will show him that you're serious and you've read and considered everything about his profile other than..."Hey, hot body and profile! Can you unlock your private pics for me? Serious here."

 

When reaching out to an advertiser—especially for the first time—I always remind myself of the risk they take putting themselves online in that way but also, that this guy is a person. He is someone's son, someone's brother, uncle, friend, etc. I'm selling myself to him. It's a dance.

 

Kindness goes a very, very long way these days and toss in a little light humor and the world pays attention. Now, I'm NOT accusing anyone of not being that who didn't get those pics unlocked. Mitch could have a million reasons for doing what he does. But, those are his and he's allowed them. Even though it's a business, ALL good business relationships are just that...relationsips between people who usually connect on a personal level as much as a business level.

 

I apologize if I get too wordy from time to time here.

I just got chills reading this. Thank you, this is a bullseye.

I had a very similar experience -- or deficit of experience I guess -- with Mitch about a year ago. Mitch, you've explained here how you do you, and I understand. But factor in the fact that when Hare, I or others hit non-responsiveness we don't chase. If I get silence, I take that as an answer and move on.

Fair enough!

There’s a difference between a cancellation and a short-notice or no show. Some may suggest to placate and be “unwaveringly understanding”, but if that escort had made ample concessions to see the client, I’m sure they wouldn’t be so lax about it. I’ve heard stories of escorts driving 3 hours, getting a hotel, and the client cancelling.

 

I have a message I send out with my rates, that includes my cancellation policy. Not that I’m unwaveringly about enforcing it, but that they ARE EDUCATED that I set boundaries in my business, and treat it seriously.

 

The only time I can be understanding of a client flaking, is understanding that they didn’t know how inconvenient it is to cancel or no show a session at the last minute. Once they saw the light, they changed the error of their ways.

 

Remember, in the grand scheme of things: most guys outside the sex biz, view sex as merely a “thought”. It’s up to you to make them see it as important as a dentist appointment, doctor visit or Airline ticket.

 

And if air traffic delays due to weather or unforeseen circumstances causes the escort to need to accommodate the client at a different time, clients can’t use that as a free pass to cancel. They still have to wait for the flight (escort) they booked.

You made an important distinction at the start of your reply, edited the thread title! Also, a form message is a great practice, I dig it.

Thank you for posting and welcome to the Forum.If I still lived in San Diego I'd make plans to see you this weekend (LA is only a couple of hours away.) However, I live in Phoenix and don't have the time to make the trip this weekend.

Thanks!

How do you deal with clients who cancel on short notice or no-show for appointments? Do you institute a cancellation fee (or kill fee) when they attempt to book with you again? Do you simply refuse to see them?

Does anyone have his face pics? It’s so difficult to get hold of him - to even unlock his private gallery! Please DM me ..

Never heard back from him from the couple times I tried reaching out. Not into elusive game...

He responded pretty quickly to my note and request for unlocking pics. I think he cares for the way you ask for it. Since he's particular about discretion, I won't be able to share his face pics over DM but can vouch for the fact that he has a mischevious smile and is handsome. He is Monkey cute haha.

I might get run out of town on a rail for this-- I don't know if responding to this thread constitutes breaking protocol-- but HI!

I'm Mitch. Thanks to the users who have left positive feedback on this thread and elsewhere on the site. To the rest-- and to anyone else who might come across this thread with a similar gripe about radio silence from me-- my apologies for the lack of responsiveness. As some of the users have pointed out on this thread and elsewhere, the work advertised accounts for a small fraction of my time. When I'm in my home city, I'm often attending to business that pulls me away from the work advertised in my profile. So if your message has gone unanswered, I'm sorry! Unanswered messages usually mean I'm unavailable or otherwise engaged. I'll do better about that for the rest of the time my profile remains up on the site.

Now... About my private album... 99% of the private album requests that aren't accompanied by a message are ignored-- this is especially true for requests from out-of-town profiles. If you want to meet me, your chances will be a lot higher if you simply respond to the questions in the body of my ad. If you're just "browsing" with no intention of meeting, well... I'm not a pornstar (despite being labeled as such on the site) and I'm not as comfortable as other are with having images of my face floating around the internet. I know, I know, some of you could be sharing my private photos without me ever knowing (@Bullakaun, I appreciate your discretion) but if I can help it, I try to reserve revealing my face for clients with serious inquiries.

The vast majority of the experiences I've had with clients have been awesome. The few instances when I've been blackmailed, stood-up, ripped off or assaulted have led me to move through this pocket of the world with as much caution as possible. So... there you have it.

See you soon, maybe?
