sadly I ended up cutting my CLT trip short. Hotels in decent areas (clients are particular which area you book) are surprisingly expensive and everyone wants half of my normal rate. Decided to leave it for the local escorts.

I hate RM messenger. The influx of messages from people from around the world that are never going to book and send nonsense messages has more than tripled. Just text or call my cell if you want to meet up. RM messenger is a disaster.

hotels are surprisingly expensive and the aren't enough potential clients. Even Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill can barely maintain their escort supply.
 
At least you're paying a lower mortgage/rent but there are consequences to moving out of NYC.

Thanks guys for all the input and PMs. Very helpful. I need to do better with picking out the weeds.
 
Philly is kicking my ass (and not in a good way) today lol:
 
5 min before appt after texting all day: "Kinda busy now. Canceling. Sorry."
 
1 hour before appt after reconfirming twice today: "Shit change of plans I am gonna need to cancel all together. Family issues. Sorry man."
 
Tonight: "Hey another guy on the site said he could do 100 less and bare. If you match I will keep our appointment."

Hooker intuition, it’ll come with time.
 
I have tried, in the past, to identify behaviors that I thought were not conducive to a legitimate booking but it’s pointless. I have had “the new profile” provide me with some of my highest transactions to date and I have had “the loyal reviewer” flake and inconvenience me innumerable times. This business has little trajectory and lacks consistency, but you learn to identity what works best for your individual business. You learn to take every transaction that did not come into fruition with stride. I listen to how my escort colleagues run their business and I find their practices to be so, well, impractical, but it works for them.

Please don't let that bother you. I'm a relative newbie too. Have only hired six providers, for a total of 14 meetings since 2015. Never had a RM account until just a couple of months ago, and have not populated it with any info/reviews. However, have submitted three reviews to Daddys, but first two were before I joined forums, so they all have different handle than my forum name. I continued to use the original handle for the third review after joining the forums.

You should read this thread - gives you a view from the other side... https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/dos-and-donts.150718/
 

You are the secret sauce - you will develop a ‘gut feel’ for guys. The tone of the message will tell you a lot. Also how they respond when you try to iron out the necessary details (time, date, location and how they desire to spend the time). I would (and do) walk away if the provider is not responsive - on the other hand I tend to be rather ‘business like’ when I text and won’t waste a provider’s time.
 

 
In this day and age I find it surprising that a client is not willing to share a number; the ability to coordinate basic logistics via text is a must. Did you lose out? Maybe. More likely you dodged a bullet. If the guy is high maintenance... I dont have a Rentmen profile - but I will tell you when I found your profile on RM.
 

 
Not an escort, but a quick and polite discourse is needed before I agree to meet. Networking with other escorts can be dicey. The may be helpful (like @VictorPowers) or not. Most guys value their privacy and wont like the idea that you are ‘gossiping’ about them behind their back. Tread careful, most guys will consider it unprofessional to talk about your clients.
 

 
For me a polite and timely response via text message is necessary. Never show frustration or anger - even if you have a bad day with a lot of cancellations. Decline politely if you don’t have time or it doesn’t feel right. If you want to build a book of business (repeat clients) after care is important. You may want to talk about some of this offline with a pro that has been in the game for a while. ?

As a client, I can't imagine ever setting up a meeting with an escort over rentmen alone. I understand clients not wanting to use their real numbers but there are lot of burner phone apps on the app store/ google play. There've been many times where I or the escort was a few minutes late and texted just to confirm that the meeting was still on. I guess you could do that on rentmen mobile but it's just a lot more tedious.
 
OP is right to be cautious of clients who don't give a phone number.

I know this can be a minefield & with someone new you don't really know what they're like until you meet them.
It may sound naive but to me honesty is the best policy. As a provider it's always best to set your stall out clearly so as to attract the kind of client with whom a meet is likely to be a success & may lead to repeat bookings.
From a client point of view, he needs to respect the provider & to withhold contact info is a red flag-burner phones & other methods of discreet contact are always available.
As a client I want to have a great time with someone I'm attracted to so so I always give a phone no. a physical description & state what I'm looking for, which should coincide with what's on the guy's profile.
I'm sure you'll develop an instinct for enquirers who are genuine, if you haven't already done so. You're a hot guy so you're sure to get many enquires-if it feels good do it, if not don't! ?

Quick side comment: you'll probably interact with entirely honest potential clients who are new to the game and very, very nervous. They are scared of stings, scared of being scared, and/or scared of getting ripped off. They may ask a bunch of questions, some inappropriate, and not know how the deal works. I was extremely nervous before and during my first couple meets and the providers were nearly ready to cancel.

Just a viewpoint -it may be difficult to get confirmation from another escort-if it was a one time thing or long ago, would the escort remember me? What if the escort is busy and doesn't want to respond to your request for info? Or take my case. I haven't hired in forever and most likely won't. But say I win the lottery and decide to hire. Most of the guys I've seen in the past have retired. I'm sure there could be other scenarios where you can't confirm with another escort.

Any client that’s not willing to give you basic contact info and agree to basic terms is a waste of your time. When I hire I always unblock my number and give my preferred name. If asked I don’t mind disclosing other providers I’ve been with unless they have specifically asked me not to. That really only happens if they are retired but have agreed to keep seeing me.
 
I like setting a time and place and then confirming 24-48hrs out.

As you gain more experience, you will also find female escort world does not fully equal male escort world.
While it is common for high end female escorts to request references/reviews on past escorts, the same does not translate to the male escort world. He still may have been a flake/fake but who knows.
There are plenty escorts that have met clients solely from RM email myself included. You are right still to see it as skeptical, especially with a new profile, when they don't want to switch to a phone/text. I like to try and arrange all the details and set the appointment and then ask if they are comfortable switching to text to make communication easier.

Welcome Jack! Thanks for the Daddy Love :D
