I think you have hit on an important point there, and not just overseas. If a client is travelling a significant distance they will want to lock in a time in advance. I have done so, sometimes for a particular time, but also for a window of a few days with a specific time agreed closer to the day.

I kinda like same day appointments more than planning, because planning gives the client a chance to search more or change his mind I've had clients wanting to book a session 2-3 months in advance which I don't know what I would be doing in 2-3 months. Granted there are some clients from overseas that wants to plan ahead and I can work with that,but if you're living a few miles from me and you want to plan a session 2-3 months come on really?.
That's why some ads say "call/text when you are ready", but same days can get overwhelming because a few times two clients wanted to come at the same time frame . Also same day appointments can burn you out too , but I learned how to adapt and adjust through all of it . 

My favorite client is one who 'if they can't make a session due to anything and they reimburse you for your time' , because I don't ask for a deposit for any of my sessions . But mostly all bottoms are my favorites , I just don't like it when you first see me you treat me like a buffet ...whoa slow down Mister 😊...but then again lol 😈

If someone's only going to be with you for an hour or two, taking it slowly might not be the best use of their time :-)

Yes take it slow. All the goods are available but just not all at once. My favourite clients are those who kiss. And bottoms of course, especially those who respond well to rimming. Hey, I like all my clients…I always think I’ve an awesome job. Meeting people, having fun with them, leaving them happy and satisfied. 

All good points. Idk how I feel these days. Some days (or even hour by hour) I’m riding high and confident, other times…I’m just so over people’s (clients) fucking bullshit. 
 
Like, I try to understand and be flexible. It’s a daunting task for guys to see a provider. Or sometimes people get busy or whatever the case may be. But goddamn, some clients can be such BAD COMMUNICATORS. Even previously met, actually good natured clients can do things that annoy me to an extent where I’m just like, I’m going to block you. I have 3 people right now on “block row” who I’m just debating if I could just go ahead and do it. But I try not to be a prick or burn bridges because I’ve done that too much lately.
Like just tonight, someone pissed me off. I told him earlier: I arrived to town, but I’m currently at a event, what time are you looking to arrange tonight? He says no rush and he’s open for rest of night. I text him later that I’m headed to the hotel now and if he can meet me in an hour: he says he can’t meet because of early meetings tomorrow.
 
I said, I asked you earlier what time you can meet, and you never specified you needed to meet by a certain time. If time was constrained, he should have said something either at that moment, or followed back up with me to mention it was getting late and he needed to meet by a certain time. Why do I have to fucking think for these guys and ask: IS THERE ANYTHING GOING ON TODAY OR TOMORROW THAT I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT???
 
So as I started to check into my hotel tonight for my 1st night on travel tour, I started to say to myself: I quit. I’m done. Knowing I can’t do that now, but I’m just so over it. And then in my local market, had 2 prospective clients reach out: neither followed thru. Some clients expect us to always be available the same day they contact us. Sometimes I am, but most of the times: Don’t expect it.
 
Then, it gets to a point where I feel I can never say no to a booking because if I try to schedule it for the next day, they’ll say yes: and then have some excuse as to why they can’t make it…which again: I understand things come up. It does on both sides. But I feel more like it’s a sign of just them not taking the interaction with much value, just if they are in the mood that moment, but no regard to the fact that we may actually have a life away from RentMen and RentMasseur sometimes. 
 
It’s like being forced to take a booking the day and moment it comes in, because if I don’t…it may not happen.

Well as for me I really stop getting up in arms about cancellations or flakes I don't expect much unless they are actually on the road or have given me some legit confirmation. And besides that I know certain keywords that send red flags to me that signals flaking or bsing so really they aren't waisting my time only theirs sometimes I play the game with them sometimes I don't and just happily block . Luckily it's good to save money just in case you get some low days and have plenty of things to do outside of the game . The main thing I learned is don't count on clients 

No doubt, but it's not something they offer to general escorts that they can buy into.
The highest level of paid marketing on RM allows escorts to buy monthly banners.

I think it's more of a marketing thing than anything else.

Thank you for clarifying that for me 😘

It's arbitrary and something that the owners of RM do for 'friends of' the site.
It would be nice if they'd at least demand updated photos from their 'exclusives,' considering many are several years old.

Blocking is a hard boundary that means “you may not engage with me anymore in any way”.  You’re really asking why RM allows escorts, whose work is criminalized and highly stigmatized, to create this hard boundary?  Negative reviews are often used as a weapon by clients against escorts.  If someone had such a bad time on their overnight with you that they needed to leave early AND block you, and you’re still insistent that you should be allowed to engage with this escort digitally, then you probably have bigger issues than not being allowed to leave a review.  When an escort blocks you or declines to see you, simply move on.  Even if someone left your session early, that’s not a rip off.  Escorts have no obligation to complete a session if we aren’t being treated well.  Being treated well is subjective, but you’re obviously finding ways to be accidentally rude that you’re unaware of, considering you don’t understand how questioning an escort’s required screening procedure led to you getting blocked.  Learn from your mistakes and move on rather than questioning why escorts are allowed to create hard boundaries with clients who they don’t want to engage with in the future.  You’re not entitled to remain qualified to book and or review escorts simply because you’re a client.  Being allowed to engage with us in any form is a privilege.  If you lose that privilege with one escort then simply move on to someone else, and try not to repeat whatever behaviors led to you getting blocked if it bothers you so much.

Well I try to carry a positive optimistic friendly cautious attitude when I'm going on outcalls, but mostly I carry condoms,lube,smell goods,phone charger,mints,sometimes massage oils 

One request I had to decline was a kidnapping scenario in public . I mean this was some movie type of scenario too. He could have been kidding but one never knows

I was meaning to ask someone on this site about starting a website. Any suggestions on getting the website setup and website companies? 

RM and FB seem the most popular!

Mines varies from Friendboy,to Rm, to Rent masseur I use to post on megapersonals but to me it’s pretty trash a lot of scoundrels posting because it’s free I’d rather pay for my Ads . 

I use Wordpress. It’s easy to set up and manage. I also blog so Wordpress is good for that. 

I know I've seen some Wix & Squarespace sites, not sure what their official stance is on this industry as a whole but it has been done.  Wordpress seems to be the go-to however.  I use SS for my mainstream business and it's always been easy to create/maintain.

Well it’s also weird to me , because when I switch to not available I tend to get more calls (rentmen) than if I switch to available. But I also have a cut off point to me accepting clients at a certain time (mainly late at night). I had my ad not available for 3 days ( just to get my focus back etc) and one client told me that I always have mine unavailable so I think some clients do look for your availability I also sometimes turn my massage ad off sometimes to give my wrists a break I sometimes go by this “absence makes the heart grow fonder “

100% your call. I don't know anything about you but if you are in this business for a short period just to make some money for a project, or this is just a side gig to complement your main source of income, i.e. a job where you just started and you would be negatively impacted if this activity is discovered, then you have all the rights to protect your privacy. That's why there is something called "Right to Privacy".
With that being said, you should accept that some clients will lose interest after hearing about your privacy policy. I personally don't look for Ken dolls because what I look for is even more scarce: Tops. So in most cases I will leave good looks in the background (not that I'm going to hire a monster) as long as the provider is a well-reputed hung top.
As an anecdote, some of the most reviewed providers in my city don't show face, one is one of my regulars. I suppose it comes down to how you market yourself and the service you provide. If you make clients happy rest assured that they will leave good reviews and give you a good reputation. If you are getting the amount of business you want and you are happy with it, don't let anyone tell you how to conduct your own business.

I just have this thing that I don’t send face pix out if a client request them . Im definitely not unattractive but as far as my face pix it’s just for my privacy. In the beginning I would do that , But I started to think some are just collecting to make their own personal portfolio. Some would say they don’t want to travel (incall) X-amount of miles without seeing a face pic but others have no problem doing this .Which I can see that’s valid because I would feel the same way. Sometimes I think it’s hurting my business but most times I just chalk it up . But my face pic is something I just want to hold onto for myself, family and friends. I’ve seen tons of ads where they don’t show their face just their body maybe they have the same problems with face pic request that I do maybe not .  It’s just that I feel if you want a face pic it’s really dipping into my personal life . It’s already enough that I’m naked/ half naked on these Ads also some request more and more pix (right there I know it’s Bs) . Also whenever I switch my Ad to Not available I seem to get more calls/views but when I’m available it’s  so minimal it’s kinda backwards with that. 

20 and even 10 years ago many escorts didn't post nor send face pics by request. Now things have changed and most ads openly display a face pic.
Offer them to meet downstairs in the lobby so the can see your pics are legitimate. Stick to your policy of NOT showing your face it will pay off in the future when you retire and nobody will gossip about you. 
Btw we had a regular poster from Belgium who never posted his face in his ads... now he's allegedly married to nobleman. That wasn't a joke, that was talked about on here.
