Questions

Hi. 

So is it unreasonable to expect questions to be answered when I contact a masseur? 

So most people I find on rentmasseur do not have other details. 

I contact and ask a set of questions. 

Can you tell me about your massage? 

Table or bed? Lotion or oil? 

Are you ok with heavy guys and I list my height and weight. 

I usually get responses that will not answer anything and just send me their rate and time period and answer maybe 1 question. 

 

I get that providers are busy and maybe can't answer now that is fine. But just have a comment that says with a client touch base later or anything. 

I am not sure why people will not answer basic questions if you fail to provide any form of info on your ad. Like I am not even asking grey area questions just basic info.

They’re probably getting enough business by just being available. No need to do much in the way of customer service. You can assume that if that’s their attitude to the enquiry process their attitude to the massage will be equally diffident. If that’s the case you saved yourself some money and time. Hire guys who answer your questions and who have a professional advert that provides the necessary information.

Its not unreasonable from customer's perspective but also cant fault those providers. If their standard of customer service does not match your expectation, then move on.

This is a reasonable and practical take. Many providers told me they would more often than not take this approach as they have sufficient existing loyal customers basis and do not mind the posibbility of losing new businesses due to lack of engagement on their end. On that note, i found that they are actually not arrogant and are nice guys irl, their reason to not engage simply driven by business reasonings - they do not care for new clients, whilst they treat their existing clients well.

Either they have a large clientele, enough to afford the luxury of not replying or takling new clients, they might not know how to answer the questions, they are not interested in accommodating for specific requests, or they are full of it and have no clue/interest about giving massages (hint: some are not certified and also have a profile in the escorting website, probalbly emphasizing other services).

There might be other reasons, but those are the most common that I have found. Since there is a growing pool of masseurs to choose from, I'd just move on to the next, especially since I'm the paying customer.

I have found some who actually schedule a call before booking, where they aske similar questions. Some provide choices during the appointment. But you're not doing anything wrong with asking. Not only you are the client and entitled to have a clear idea of what service you will receive, but also seems like that questions that you are asking are not about unreasonable things.

I think a consultation is appropriate,  even if it is something as simple as an exchange of messages.    I realize some clients may want to discuss by phone,  text or even in person.    I've had several face to face discussions with potential clients in person (one via zoom) about my work as a provider.   I should not have any objection and take the time to make sure the client is comfortable and all reasonable questions are addressed.

You may get a better response rate if you change the phrasing of your questions.  For example:

"Hello, I am looking for a massage on a table with massage lotion (not oil).  I am a big guy at over 6ft tall and 300 pounds.  Do you have the table and lotion to accommodate a man of my size?"

See what I did?  It's just one question he can answer "yes" to without back and forth.
