Wondering How Does One Start Escorting...

[Guest CollegeToronto]

I'm an attractive Toronto boy working his way through school and was thinking about escorting as a way to earn some extra money. I was wondering how does one go about starting up as an escort. I'm 22 6'1 165lbs, gwm, dark blonde hair, toned mostly smooth body, I guess about 7 uc, and have mostly been a bottom in the past. I'm intelligent, and am a good conversationalist. I think I have the makings of a good escort just unsure how to begin. Anybody help me out?

 

Cheers

One easy thing to do that many other escorts have not done but three of the best I know have and that is read Aaron Lawerences Book go to his web site and see how to get it and all that. HUGS Chuck

CollegeToronto it isn't very hard to begin, the hard part is being good at it . Aaron's book is a decent start as was mentioned.

 

Before you actually start determine what you are comfortable doing and the type of people you feel comfortable working with. Remember each time you limit yourself you potentially lose business. Decide what your fee will be (check escort fees in your area on this site for some ideas) and be prepared for the hard work it will take to build a client base. You will not get rich quick. Look at escorting as being self employed and have the discipline to be successful.

 

A shortcut to get some business is to get some pics together, put up a web page, you can use one of the free host sites. I would also suggest that you run an ad on AmericanMale. And, in Toronto run an ad in XTRA.

 

Good Luck

Hey I don't have much to do so. If you want to have your own web site like lots of the big guys do I can make you one. Just check my web for some examples. :7

Check out hookonline.org for all kinds of great resources and articles. Put together a simple web site and put an ad in the local gay paper, and some escort web sites. Then get to work! But most important is to be good to the guys you meet -- don't try to take advantage of them, or else you're doing this for the wrong reason. It's OK to let them know you're new to the biz, too. You'll find you'll have repeat and referral business before you know it. Also trust you intuition; if you're talking to someone on the phone or e-mailing and something doesn't seem right, best to just say no (but don't no-show). Have fun with it... you'll be amazed how much you'll end up learning about all kinds of things.

Do call around the other escorts in your area to check out their prices. Don't just assume that the normal looking prices in the reviews on this site are the same fees you will be able to charge. It does vary some from city to city. And while you're checking out the competition, it's a good idea to hire someone so that you can see what it feels like to be a client.

You've received some very good advise here and all should be considered. The most important one is to decide what you can and cannot do and make it clear to the potential client. Also, your safety is very important and, as has been mentioned, if you don't feel comfortable about someone or suspect that something is wrong DO NOT ACCEPT THE JOB. You may want to stay away from drunks or guys high on drugs. Try to get some pictures taken (if you have a good friend who is good at photography, this could save you some money). Then, try the local gay paper that accepts escort ads. Some of the websites mentioned will get you alot of publicity for "out of town" clients. Decide on hours you will work, what kind of clients you will accept and what you are comfortable doing. Then, GO TO IT. Good Luck. If you get a client who you feel really liked you, try to get him to write a review here. This is good publicity for you BUT DO NOT WRITE A FAKE REVIEW OF YOURSELF. Someone will catch it and once it's discovered, this could be very negative for you. See the "Jason Tyler" debacle here. I strongly suspect that Jason did himself in.

Joey and Carlo have a lot of info too. I think they used to have a class but I can't find it on their web site now.

thanks

the comments were very much appreciated

i do have some questions though (sorry if they sound stupid) but how does one get paid, like what's the protocol there, and if i'm only comfortable with safe sex (condom for oral and anal) how do i get that across, also are guys looking for mostly tops, bottoms, versatiles, etc.

 

thanks

I am not an escort but some suggestions here. Tell them what you feel comfortable with. Top,bottom or vers. It's a matter of what you are into or able to perform at. Most get paid at the end. Most guys get upset about upfront payment (That doesn't mean you can't do it but just warning you) It's a matter of trust. You get burned then maybe you change policy. Once again these are the things you put on your page or talk to guys over the phone/email about. Likes/dislikes be honest, be yourself, be ready for anything if your not then maybe you should look for a different profession or be very specific. The more do's and dont's you have the more people will agonize over you. In honesty if your not into big guys or older guys or bald guys or whatever then don't say you are and then freak out. Try to find out something about the person and what they expect of you and be specific of your expectations of them. Almost every sane person is into safe sex at least anally, most don't use condoms for oral but that is a personal decision and that is up to you. HUGS Hope this helps Chuck

 

 

GO to Aaron Lawrence website and get some of his info he is the teacher of most high quality escorts or at least the standard that most follow

Actually - if the escort is intelligent (and presumably a guy in university is no dummy) he could probably write his own review and nobody would be any the wiser. All he would have to do is to not be too "glowing" and even add a slight negative. If the review leaned more towards the neutral (say a 7 on a scale of 1-10) and stayed away from the gushing, I bet he could pull it off - no pun intended.

 

And to answer you question re protocol, a condom is a must for anal, but if you insist you wear one to let a client blow you, you will probably lose a lot of business - I know I wouldn't hire you. But you have to do what you're comfortable with. Good luck!

Be up front and firm about your rate so there's no misunderstanding. You can put it in your web site and some ads (I wouldn't put it in a newspaper ad, though), and be clear it's for time, not services. I think it's best and more respectful to take payment at the end -- usually the guy will leave it out for you to see, or hand it to you. I've never had someone not pay after an appointment.

 

As for safe sex, it's surprisingly easy to discuss. Definitely put it in your advertising profile so that people know where you're coming from, and bring condoms and lube to all your appointments. When the time comes, just bring them out and take the initiative. The great thing with escorting is you can me more direct about these kinds of things than you would on a traditional date.

 

While you're at it, I'd agree with the post to avoid clients that are using drugs -- put that in your profile as well and you'll avoid a lot of bullshit. Lots of guys like poppers, which is fine, but anything else can make things complicated and flakey for you.

 

Hope that helps -- good luck!

well you got a lot of advice... but do you have the ""mentality"" to sell your body to a total stranger who is probably as old as your daddy and probably not atractive?? if you can do that good luck to you and all the best.
