Rants, Raves and Opinions AKA "The Octagon"

[QUOTE=DrDave39;3883982]Just had a national touring provider cancel with me. She was very apologetic, but told me that I would have been her only appointment, and that she is not coming back to Cincinnati due to multiple cancels and no-shows I've also seen a dropoff both from sthe companies that tour nationally (I. E. XO Companions who have new girls in Columbus pretty much every week but no longer come here) and independent tourers. Flawless was about the only company that still came here and they are apparently now shut down. I am on p411 and Columbus has a range of providers coming through constantly, but less and less here.

This is what I missed out on.

What are we doing wrong?

The good dr.[/QUOTE]I think we have several good providors locally, unlike Columbus and other places. We have several with EE and 6-12 other ATFs that are reasonably priced or the market. Simple economics of supply and demand. High supply, lower prices. Low supply? Higher prices and traveling escorts.

Golfguy, playing through.

[QUOTE=Jeh123;3884006]So she didn't have enough business, but canceled what little she had. That's not how I run mine. I'll do whatever I can to generate rev if things are slow. The travelers are scary, just like most any 1st meet w / o references.[/QUOTE]

The good dr.[/QUOTE]I'm sure there must be some sort of break-even analysis the traveling chicks do when lining up a city to visit. Bearing the travel cost, room, etc for a single appointment probably isn't going to cut it.

I'm actually surprised that Columbus gets so much more attention. I guess there's a good market for them up there.

In any case, as I tried to point out in my post, its not just her.

Tgd.

Sucks.

Sucks.[/QUOTE]Ok, now I get it. She was never here, but is complaining of no shows?

[QUOTE=RogerOver;3884109]I'm actually surprised that Columbus gets so much more attention. I guess there's a good market for them up there.[/QUOTE]Columbus is a big city. 15th largest in the country last I checked, so not sure it's too surprising their are more / better options.

[QUOTE=ClassyDD;3881701]Wondering if anyone is or knows of a professional adult themed photographer?[/QUOTE]Thanks so much for all of the valuable information. I really appreciate you all!

[QUOTE=Jeh123;3884152]Ok, now I get it. She was never here, but is complaining of no shows?[/QUOTE]She cancelled her visit because no one booked, whereas she's as busy as she wants to be for 2 days in Cleveland.

[QUOTE=DrDave39;3884974]She cancelled her visit because no one booked, whereas she's as busy as she wants to be for 2 days in Cleveland.[/QUOTE]As was mentioned, it's all supply and demand. Cleveland and Columbus are shit for the Escort scene. Even the STG scene isn't that great for such large cities. Cincy on the other hand has a lot of good options, thus no one cares to see these high end ladies when there are plenty of equally good looking girls available for half the cost. Sure maybe these STG and Ero-Monkey girls are a little harder to deal with, but some are real gems.

[QUOTE=Neostud;3886086]As was mentioned, it's all supply and demand. Cleveland and Columbus are shit for the Escort scene.[/QUOTE]I can easily vouch for that. Cleveland and Columbus used to be happening hotspots between 2009 to 2011 when Backpage was at it's peak. I sampled about a couple dozen BP girls in each city during that time period and it was fun times all around and pretty much anything goes when it came to the menu. More druggies in Columbus, and sadly that is even more evident lately since the last chickie I got there in 2015 was literally covered in meth sores like she had chicken pox.

NEVER take for granted what you got, Cincy. It really is an embarrassment of riches for this area to be blessed with so many providers.

For the size of the city and the number of quality providers at the price point around here has is no equal. Maybe Dallas or Houston. Those places are EPIC. But Cincy is def a gem! Unfortunately, When a traveling lady comes into town, her doubled (or tripled) price point is a tough sell even tho the service is much better due to the customer service intangibles!!

I used to use 'bitches of backpage' which grouped pictures by phone number. Alas, they are no more.

Anyone know a good site that does something similar?

Certain mongers think that they can start talking smack and not know the whole situation. I don't need your help or anything else! So zip it pal! MTD1.
