e-mail reply with content?

[Guest Gard]

When I plan my trips to the major cities like NY, London and other with ample supply of boys I send five to seven e-mails to interesting (for me) young males. I give fairly specific and comprehensive information about myself and my interests and requirements (nothing unususal).

Normally I get one answer within 24 hours, an other two within 48 hours and maybe one or two more within a week, One or two mails are dead.

One answer may reply to most of my questions, one or two to some, like terms and conditions/restrictions, but a couple will just say "call my phone on arrival".

Is this the normal pattern?

Well from my experience its not abnormal, though I confess from my own experience that I get more of the non-answered e-mails than the 'phone on arrival' ones.

 

Of course a lot depends on how you pre-screen your escorts too. A lot of the escorts that have been in the business a while or have lots of good reviews on this site know the value of that first e-mail contact. They respond faster and with more information. Also I've found that escorts with a website generally respond well to e-mail. The worst (again in my experience) are the part-time (often students) escorts who throw an add in one of the online directories. I suppose, to be fair, that they have a varied schedule but even a 'Sorry, but I'll be unavailable that week' reply would be nice...

In my experience, yes.

 

The "call me when you arrive" response is common - some escorts don't really like to take advance bookings, particularly from first time clients that they don't know.

I recently had an escort tell me that 5pm was too early for 10 THAT NIGHT, and asked me to call back later !?! ( I did and I had a wonderful time. )

How weird. I prefer it as far in advance as possible (but I am totally open to taking a job spontaneously, too...I do that all the time, if I'm free when they call). I like to know how to plan my schedule, since I do a lot more than escort (you know, I shop, I go to the gym...I do a lot of stuff you wouldn't expect from an escort).

I've sent out 2 e-mails for a trip that I'll be taking to NYC in October. Have one of them bothered to return my e-mails over the last week??? Zero.

Guess you should have sent to Rick he would have answered right away

I thought the same thing but I wasn't gonna say it.

Hi Gard

 

This is Tommy from Austin, As a "full-time escort" I need to say, a good escort will not send you any e-mail reply and just say "call me when you arrive!" it just hustling not escorting. If an escort don't reply within 48 hours, I sure they must be busy and I will forget about him, on another hand I don't like "Right Now-Call" form a comstomer also, as for me if I didn't talk to you for few e-mails or phone calls and try to understand you before we meet, it just as same as hustler... something you can pick up form a local pub.

I've had similiar results when trying to arrange an appt. ahead of time for an upcoming trip. My intuition tells me that these boys get an awful lot of "browsers",

guys who just want to flirt a little on line. I think this might be the reason so many reply curtly, or not at all... they're not in business to chat endlessly with countless anonymous men via e-mail.

On the other hand, I think a gracious escort should reply in good faith to the initial e-mail. An escort is selling a comodity, after all, and should treat the potential customer with some amout of respect. Or, as my dear granny used to put it: You're gonna have to chat up a lot o' folk to sell a car that's got so much mileage on it!

[Matt_Vancouver]

I can only speak for myself, though I pretend to know everything: )

Sometimes when I'm travelling(which is all the time) it's difficult to respond to emails in a timely manner, I do my best, but if I'm away with someone for a few days... well let's put it this way... would you want me answering my email on your time? So sometimes it may take a few days to hear back. But with me... all emails get answered, yes even the ones that are obviously just looking for pictures to wank too. So if you email me, you will hear back...

In my experience different cities get different responces from escorts... I know some great escorts in London that are the 'call when you arrive' type, I think it has something to do with volume... and well some guys are just really bad at organisation skills: ) hey even the best of us sometimes have scheduling mishaps... it happens.

My advice, attempt to make contact as far in advance as possible. Some guys travel alot, and last minute means chances are they are already booked.

One more point, be specific in your emails... not too much superfulous info... realize your escort gets ALOT of email... and would like to get out of the house and away from the computer on his downtime... or you could be like me... and spend 2-3 hours a day when not travelling , or at minimum a full day after travelling, simply just replying to messages... that's not including the time made arranging travel itineries, working on a swindling social life, trying to sleep, masturbating... you know the usual....I need an assistant... takers?

When I've traveled to USA, I emailed before several escorts in order to know about their stas, rates and limits, and of course my expectations.

Most of them do not respond anything. But there is a small group of selected guys that gave me a lot of information that they have confirmed at the appointments that finnallly we had.

I remember, all over them, Shamus as the best informer, courteous and friendly guy on the net. He gave me a lot of information about my first appointment with an escort in NYC. When I met him I was astonished with his look and performance. He was out of this world.

 

I also have to mention Matt Anderson in Chicago: very friendly and warm: in emails and in person.

Ridge in Chicago is not very expressive by mail, but any way call him. You will not regret. He is closest to perfection.

If the escort of your "dreams" do not answer you fast, look to another one.He is not a proffesional: When you look for an escort you are looking for a fantasy and he must know how to give it to you. It's not a favor is a dream.

That strikes me as highly unprofessional from the simple standpoint that if a client calls and wants to schedule something in the future, in fear that a particular escort may not be available, that an escort would simply tell him to 'wait it out.'

 

IMO, it's bad form, bad business and doesn't say much about the escort himself~ remember, it's not about what the client can do for you... it's what you can do for your client. If you can't be 100%flexible for a client, than why even bother escorting...

 

 

Warmest Regards,

From reading many posts in the past on this very topic I've come to the conclusion that many people have different opinions as to how and when to contact escorts, set up appointments, follow-ups, etc.

Therefore, I follow my own set of rules and navigate thru them whenever I want to hire an escort in a city that I will be visiting. I always like to plan way ahead of time as to who I will see and whether they will meet my minimum standards. I check out "Meet Local Men", "Rentboy" or the reviews section here.. I pick out those I think I like, then check reviews. I then will e-mail the prospective escort within a 2 to 4 week time frame and ask the usual pertinent questions. Usually, half will not respond or if they do they just tell me to call when I am in town. Many don't even write complete sentences. That eliminates them. I assume that anyone who cannot answer simple questions is not interested in a professional meeting. Of those that do respond and answer my questions, I decide which one I want and then get back to them requesting an appointment at a specific day and time. I also tell them that I am willing to call them so we can talk and get a feel of each other. When they agree, I call and if all is ok, we make the appointment defenite. I then inform them that as soon as I check into hotel, I will call them to give them room no. From initial contact to meeting can be from 2 to 4 weeks. Probably two or three emails to sort out preliminaries then one tel call to just talk and finally final tel call to give hotel room.

Some escorts probably find this too complicated but it works for me and if it works for them, We're on.

I think that you have to decide for yourself what works for you and then, if your prospective escort is in synch with you...great. Remember, you pay alot of money to spend an hour, whatever, with someone and if they don't fit your expectations before you meet, it's chancy that they will later.

I generally follow Kenny's modus operandi except initial contact is made 2 weeks before the desired appt. I am also specific, but try to be brief in describing my wants. For my trip to London this spring I sent my original inquiry to an escort who I had seen on the last trip. He unfortunately was out of town that weekend so I had to start shopping. Of the next three, one replied within 24hours, one within 2 days, and one I never heard from. Even the guy that I got together with, seemed hesitant to make a firm commitment until I was actually in town. I realize these days travel plans can change quickly. I really don't cut things that close so that even if my flights delayed I'm going to be in danger of missing the appt. I make that clear to them in subsequent contacts, but there definitely does seem to be a fear of commitment out there.

[Guest canada77]

I too can only speak for myself - I always reply to emails I receive, but for most that I receive - the "hey, send pics/rates" kind, I have a "standard" response. It may seem rude, but it's quick, informative, and gives potential clients the info they need.

 

Now, if their email is detailed, or unusual, or sparks my interest ... I tend to reply with a personalised reply

Reading the views on this issue, I tested the matter in preparation for my next London visit. I spent some time exploring the net and selected 15 guys I felt I could seriously consider from both social and sexual point of view.

I sent all of them a mail, basically the same to each of them, with clear information about what I wanted and of myself.

The answers started to come in after 12 hours and most had arrived after 48. After 36 all had replied.

Most answers were comprehensive and clear, several had face photos or other private pictures attached. Nost suggested a phone contact prior to meeting and only one was uninformative and limited to "call on arrival".

Was I lucky or is competition hard in London or are the brits picking up the service skills of americans?

OK, now I'm really confused! 'Most responses had arrived after 48 hours but all had arrived after 36...' Is this a brain-teaser or have I walked into a temporal paradox here?;-)

Actually, it's very simple. Matt_Vancouver has just arrived in London for his annual 'visit'. This has no doubt scared the 'local boys' into sharpening up their act... (it takes a Canadian! }> )

[Guest jwraustin]

I always try to answer my e mails as soon as I pick them up. I travel a lot, but I always manage to have my lap top with me.

 

I really like the e mails from clients who give a little personal imformation about them selves, and what they are looking for. It doesnt have to be much, but just a little more than "rates, pic??"

 

I really appreciate guys who book in advance. I dont have much time for immediate calls, and usually turn them down.

 

But I think a warm, friendly e mail to a prospective escort will always work much better than a curt, short e mail. There is a real human being on the receiving end of the e mail that is going to read and respond to your mail.

Ok, I'm very new at this since it has been a long time being with anyone. But for a trip I am taking this week, I started e-mails three weeks ago. I too searched the various web sites including this one for reviews and listings and picked out the men I was interested in. Since it's my first real attempt, I wanted it to be special, so I checked carefully for preferences, stats, etc. I narrowed it down to 12. Several were in the direct area I am visiting. 3 were a little farther away and would require travel I assume. Of the 12, three mails came back with bad adresses. Of the several who were in the area, one replied immediately. We have since had a number of e-mails and I feel very comfortable with him and have booked him. Two others responded a day later along with an agency who represents a third guy I had mailed. The agency response answered no questions (there weren't that many but they were important) so that guy is off the list. Of the other two, one responded very interestingly. We also have had several e-mails and I am very comfortable with him as well and have booked him for another night. The remaining guy responded that it would be "kool to get together " and "call me when you get in". He's off the list. I may not be a pro at this and although my e-mails are simple, they contain bits of me and my attempt to reach out. I am impressed when someone in a service related business, picks up on that and responds accordingly. While I was initially disappointed in the number of responses, the two good ones that I did get impressed me so much, I booked both. Can't wait for Mr. Friday and MR. Saturday.

I plan to submit reviews since the area is not well represented on this site.

Finally someone else said it....thank you

I will still answer the rates n pix emails... but they will definatly be down the list of priorities.

A good email is one that is short to the point, with all the required information....IE. date of interest, what type of service you're looking for, duration of appointment, and any questions you might have.... rates, pix, etc.

A bit about yourself is a nice addition, not a requirement, but it does give some insight into 'who' I'm speaking too.

*********************************************************************

Let the tirade begin

*********************************************************************I find the rates n pix emails come from .....aol users typically. I'm not bashing people who use aol, it's a simple, uncomplicated internet access for technophobes... but that damn "you've got mail" thing they've created... has caused a major breakdown in communication via email. NOT EVERYONE GETS A CUTESY MESSAGE NOTIFYING THEM THAT SOME MAIL HAS ARRIVED.... So most of us read it later... sometimes hours later... thereby forgeting the original message you are responding too.

So a message like "sounds good" or "I disagree", will typically mean nothing when read hours later.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE attach the original message in your responces.... it makes life so much easier for the intended reader.

thank you.

Matt(really really really loves aol)
