Online Scheduling Site

[FrancisCA]

Does anyone use an online scheduling website other than the normal call or text? Do you think you would use it if an escort had one available? Someone forwarded me to this one thats why https://acuityscheduling.com/

 

I would think the high selling point in this is you would be able to see the escorts full schedule in the upcoming days.

I thought about trying that for a hot minute and came up with several reasons it’s a poor choice, at least for me.

 

The biggest reason I would not choose that method is that I want to individualize my time, approach, and services to the person. Simply having an appointment for Jim at 5 on Thursday tells me nothing actually useful for doing my job, particularly if this is someone I’ve never spent time with before.

 

It also doesn’t allow you to screen clients. It doesn’t allow you to negotiate times and dates. I also really don’t care to share my full schedule openly with anyone passing through my site.

 

I think it’s really important - particularly now - for us providers to not turn to automation or less personal experiences. We’re called on to be with people for some very intimate and vulnerable times and we ask for a considerable fee for our time. Part of what a client is paying for is to feel taken care of and provided with the special attention they deserve. I can understand the temptation to look at something like automatic scheduling that ostensibly appear to make life easier, but if I were a client and felt my escort was removed from the experience of interacting with me by some software, I’d move on.

Eric - you are very smart. There are still certain things in life that require a personal touch for a worthwhile experience. Also, should a potential customer know your schedule to see just how busy (or not) you are? This poses problems for both parties. There are certain things that should be kept private.

WOW you have a good point! Never thought about that THANKS!

I use online scheduling for doctors, car service, etc.

 

I agree with @Eric Hassan 's comments regarding personal approach. I'll add a different, even sour, perspective for potential escort scheduling.

 

Dont do it. The internet is a great development. But one of the side effects is a "little thought, no consequences" attitude to online activities. Escorts who open themselves for online scheduling are going to have as many fake appointments as they get worthless inquiries. Itll be even easier for nervous clients to just no-show. Etc etc.... think of all the wasted time with inquiries/contacts.

 

The only way I see online scheduling not being a total waste of rentguys' time is with a financial obligation to book, much like airlines. And that ain't happening.

There are a couple of reasons a public schedule could be unwanted. Where many clients are aware that a provider could have seen a few other men that day (especially if travelling), they may not want to think about it. The online schedule shows that the last guy was there an hour ago. Some "there was another guy" often comes out with traveler (more so than locals in my experience), it's not as 'comprehensive' as seeing there have already been 6 visitors to the man you are going to see. It doesn't bother me personally. I know and don't have a problem with it, but for some clients I can see that it would break some of the mystique.

 

There is the opposite of that as well. If the calendar shows appointments, and there aren't many, the client could wonder why. Especially for a traveler. Provider shows up tomorrow for the weekend, and has 2 appointments. Blatantly says he's not busy, subtly makes a client wonder why. Bad service perhaps? And some clients might try to talk the provider down in cost because demand doesn't seem to be there.

 

Another is if you have a proposed repeat customer that you know isn't a good match and have decided that you will pass on any proposed visits, he can see that you are free.

 

I do have one provider who has a website that allows you to book time, but as far as I can see, it just allows you to select a time an hour or so in the future and does not display if he actually has an engagement. His available times (which are like 18 hours a day) are all open, even if he's in a session over part of that. So it does allow some scheduling without revealing if he has another client. I don't actually like that a whole lot. Mostly because we still have to connect to schedule a time, so I've bypassed it and just contacted him directly.

We know it's business but the trick for a good escorts is to make it feel NOT like a business.

For my legitimate massage, absolutely essential and puts it almost on autopilot so I can put my time and energy into fancier massage types and escorting.

 

For the special massages and escorting though, noooooo, that gives you the bad kind of visibility and it does put emphasis on the transaction aspect. I schedule those personally through text or call.
