I'm a terrible fun time negotiator.
[QUOTE=DutchMann;6464705]Looking for a bit of guidance / advice when asking for rates / pricing with an individual (private) provider who doesn't openly post rates or list it on their ad.
1. How do you ask for the rate. What terminology / language do you use?
2. Do you ask for a "tip inclusive" price or negotiate that when you get there?
3. If you ask for a rate and they quote it, say $150/ hr how do you assume that includes tip or do you qualify it?
Thanks in advance and feel free to message me if you have any other suggestions as I navigate this new hobby.
DM.[/QUOTE]I'll at least get the conversation going. First of all, you should know I'm a terrible negotiator when it comes to bargaining for physical and emotional connection (pleasure and release). I tend to be drawn to the more articulate providers, ones who satisfy my prurient needs as well as my intellectual ones. And those providers typically are higher cost because they know their worth and usually don't do drugs, at least nothing more than weed. They fascinate me as well as pleasure me, and I am willing to pay more for that duality.
Benz is probably the best negotiator for bottom line prices. But his preferences and mine do not intersect much on the Venn Diagram of the overlap of our desired ladies. Neither of us are wrong in preferences, just an example of varied markets we shop. He can give better advice on how to drive a hard bargain than I can. I simply pay. And smile. And repeat.
And of course, we can't forget the most astute negotiator on these boards ever, DJBiker. His ability to use the glib nature of his razor sharp mind has most women reeling. They simply are putty in his hands when it comes to providing top notch service at bargain basement prices. Hopefully, he will bless us with a small glimpse inside that shrewd negotiating brain of his and lay down some keen observation skills.
Others can likely weigh in on their observations. Of course, timing is key. Rent is due this week, so pricing might be more negotiable than last week.
Market.
