I've read the whole thread, and for the record, I missed whatever pissed others off. It seemed to me that you were just trying to get some feedback on the issue of various rates, and trying to figure out how to get two different groups of clients. I think others gave you some good ideas to think over.

LOL, OMG seriously, I jsut thought of what the WHOLE entire discussion was about i just wanted feedback some HELP on what i should do but infact i have had nothing but rude comments and smug remarks to my efforts to self improve my escorting career. thank you for bringing that to my attention.. kinda lost track when everyone was attacking me.. xoxo

Do they make porn now, too? Gee, everybody's in on the act.

 

(No, I meant like Titan and Falcon.)

For almost two years, I have engaged the services of escorts, CA, NYC, Chicago, and LA. All of the men have had fixed rates. I've been with top versatiles, tops, few bottoms, and versatiles if I have to apply these horrendous labels. No, they will NOT advance the charge based on services rendered. They have to interact based on these superficial labels, or I will not hire. Usually I tip, but the performance and my being pleased must be exemplary. We have to be into each other (wow--the unintended pun) and seemingly enjoy the encounter, or I don't tippppppppp. At those hourly rates....!

It's amazing how some good looking people lose appeal the more they talk. I guess there's some truth to that old adage - children should be seen and not heard.

I'd say that Mr Huey is quite astute and wise in most of his advice.

I agree,

High marks for nerve, marketing savvy, thick skin and persistence.

But when I "buy" companionship, I want more than a "body" with a marketing plan, I want a human being who is at least as interested in my needs as he is in whether he is charging top dollar and getting what he is worth. I will, in the final analysis, decide whether he is is worth what he charges. Much good luck to you

Actually, non sexual LMT's are charging around $95 now in NYC (plus sales tax in a salon). Ive noticed the upper bodyworkers starting to charge anywhere from $130 (Lawrence in NY) to $150 (David in Seattle).

 

I would expect prices to start climbing this New Year for bodyworkers.
