sorry can't help you. I posted on this. As big a city as ATL is there are some just lame ads and profiles here Also without knowing anything about you or what style etc you like, its hard to make any recommendations I would suggest looking at MF and RM finding some you are interested in and posting a "411" request including link to their ad and let folks reply (here or PM).

I have heard this OVER and OVER again from masseurs visiting Atlanta that clients are very flakey. Not sure why this is. Some of the factors I take into consideration: 1) Price: I look at ads that say they offer this/do that - but that is when they are at their home studio. When they travel obviously they can't offer all that, but yet charge the same price. Perfect example is a bed. I very much prefer a table, but a bed is OK. But don't uncharge the customer to be done on a bed. There is no cost to pass on (ie traveling with it). For me anything over $140 I will seriously question. 2) Location: I'm specifically talking about my area Atlanta. I almost will not go downtown. 1) difficult and $$ to park 2) transit system is difficult and time consuming (I only do weekend massages that is when train schedule is slow plus Atl transit is crowded dirty and just gross). So if I call someone and they say downtown, I usually will not take it further. Know your market and where your clients are. I have asked many why they pick downtown - and the response is typically "because its easier or convenient for me". It should be more about clients than you - sorry if that hurts. 3) "Interview": Personally I like to talk to someone on the phone and ask some questions to make sure it is a good match. There are many ads that say text only or no phone calls. I will generally avoid those. If I call someone and leave VM and then immediately get a text and no phone call, another red flag for me. I seek mostly theraputic (I said mostly not entirely). So when I ask someone what style of massage they do and the first thing they say is erotic, then bye. 4) Reviews: If available I read them. I seriously wonder if many are fake. But I do read them. on RM if all the reviews say erotic or sensual I may steer clear I have had my share of masseurs. Many are good. But the bad ones are HORRIBLE and perhaps that is why people are shy or reserved about it. I would say be honest when talking to potential clients. Its bad when you get there and have a totally opposite experience based on what was discussed. Most look like their ad pics, but some weren't even close. Sure masseurs have been burnt before but so have clients. I have many where I paid for an hour and barely got 30 mins. Two very recent experiences of why I talked to someone but didn't follow through: 1) masseur advertised one price but on the phone quoted me $50 more stating that he can ONLY do outcalls and that is his outcall rate. So he was forcing the client to spend more and have someone come to him. If he offered both in and out and I chose in - that is on me. But to advertise both but say out only No way. Plus $50 to travel few miles tops was ridiculous. 2) was ready to book, but the masseur changed hotel without telling me. It was further away and not easy for me to get to Ok enough said. Just trying to answer the poster's question from a client perspective and view.

There are some. few and far between

If you find any please do share!!! I mean seriously, scan MF and RM. Pathetic sad ads pics and whats up with the rates. How do guys justify high rates and on a bed. Their ad avertises all these luxeries etc but that is at their place. On the road there are no luxuries but their rate doesn't reflect that I could go on but you get the point

I want in on this too

Within Pro there is a pulldown to select the specific service - scroll down and there is one for masseurs IMHO (at least in my area) they are all horrible, bad experiences etc etc etc But hopefully that helps answer your question

I spoke to him on the phone. He seemed VERY friendly outgoing etc etc. Everything seemed cool Then he said he was staying downtown. For those in ATL: 1) parking downtown is expensive 2) Taking transit SUCKS (crowded smelly hot AND on a weekend they only run every 20 mins so your total time just increased. Plus its a given no table Then he hit me up with his pricing schedule. Therapeutic is $100 has NO sensual components but does allow some light touch (body only) - NO more. His sensual package is $150 includes him being nude very interactive and release. I told asked him if I could do the theraputic with "SELF" release only. He said NO stating "im am strict that way so no disappointments" So $50 to jack myself off - NO thank you. Plus getting downtown (either pay $20-40 for parking) or take crappy marta which will take considerably longer on weekends schedule. HMMMMM let me think about that one... .NOT!!!!!!!! I'm sure he is nice and all and for those who want the sensual aspect go for it. Just not for me - IMHO

Just wondering if anyone has tried this place out I Know it is 10000% therapeutic (but that is normally what I want). I know it is done by students (though for slightly more $$ you can have teacher do it). The prices are VERY low and reasonable. Just for the heck of I tried to book an appt. Granted I can only do Saturdays (which I know book up fast). However, mid to end Aug is the first appt I see online. The other issue, you cannot pick who you want. You can't even pick gender (kinda sucks IMHO). Anyways, just curious if anyone has tried this place and if so thoughts? You can PM me. Thanks

His reviews all say sensual. Is he sensual or therapeutic based?

I missed that reply. My apologies

So are you going to keep us in suspense... is he the guy from the pics on rent masseur?

Yes

Thanks but does the pics he posted here match him - that was the question

WOW I had the total opposite experience. I felt they were in perfect sync with each other The massage was great They are very friendly, communicate well. I have seen them a few times (been a while) but any time they are back in my area, I will again

Alex/Alexi is back https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/5122/ I didn't waste any time booking. He is here till Tues eve I believe He is likely to book up soon

I wouldn't expect anything else - at a professional studio. Thanks for sharing. I do seek (most of the time) truly therapeutic massages to work out the soreness of my workouts. I will give that some consideration.

Hey thanks.. confirms what I thought. Thanks for validating

I get if they don't want to take public transport. But hello UBER... Anyways.. he is but a few miles away. NO way its $50 The bigger issue is that because of his "filming" he can't host. So I the customer am FORCED to host and pay for it. No thanks

WTF... Thats like going to a restaurant KNOWING you don't have money but sit down order and eat Unless he was hoping he could "work it off another way" Wink Win

I wasn't going to post this but... (for the benefit of others) I saw this ad: https://rentmasseur.com/ScottMuscle I thought to myself HOT guy and since he does training this could be a good massage too (since he is familiar with the male body working out etc). $150 price tag wasn't too unreasonable given his body and the fact he is a trainer. I called, no answer. He immediately texted back. He stated he was in town "filming" which I interpreted as a porn video shoot - NO biggie... To each their own. No judgement. He said he HAS to do outcalls. I said no biggie I can host (obviously bed which again is ok with me). He then stated (here is why i'm posting): $200 cash. I replied stating that his ad says $150. His response was that $150 is his in call rate and $200 is outcall. I stated the fact that you CANT do in calls isn't fair to the customer. Plus we are both in midtown - no way it cost $50 to go a few miles. No response. I told him I would see what I can do. But realistically doubtful. I can't swing $200. Plus I suspect it will be more of a rub-n-Tug Now if anyone has experience to contradict me please PM me. Thanks

$180 for him... WOW!!! To each their own

I "suspect" his pics aren't current. Some of them appear outdated. Also for $100 I wouldn't expect too much on the sensual/erotic side. IMHO I very well could be wrong. If you book with him, let us (me) know.

Thanks, I did NOT book with them.

Great Info!!!!!! This is what i needed to hear. Much appreciated. To be that horrible and demand 2 hour minimum sucks

Thanks !!!!
