Rants, Raves and Opinions AKA "The Octagon"

[QUOTE=DNut;4730100]I was chatting with a provider who asked an interesting question. Acknowledging that times are hard and a lot of people don't have the disposable income they once did, how can she entice clients without herself losing out by lowering prices. She does have a point. Just like everyone, she also has bills that need to be paid.

I suggested that instead of taking less money, to ADD time. Instead of (for example only) charging $200 for an hour, still charge $200 but for 75 minutes or 90 minutes. She is asking about getting more clients so I believe I can safely assume that she doesn't have the current client base to schedule back-to-back-to-back clients; she has downtime. Not many of us can still go longer than an hour, have multiple pops within that hour, get to position 85 of the Kama Sutra without doing physical therapy afterwards, etc. , but offering some extra time to catch one's breath between pops could provide some incentive in these challenging times. (I am only stating my suggestion, but I'm sure someone will take this as a challenge to a debate over the merits of this idea. It's not open for debate.).

The point of this post is to ask, does anyone have any other ideas on how to entice clients these days, other than lower rates, that I could pass along?[/QUOTE]When you contact them at 2 and hour after you talk to them will give you and extra 1/2 hour gratis and hope you appreciate it enough to come back. Some ladies do the same also at 150 and give and extra half. The ladies who are business savy know the competition is out there and know that a lot of guys have had cut hours so try to give incentives to get steady business. It is what it is. Mack.

One less condescending person around here would be nice though.[/QUOTE]LSM certainly had no problem moving to FL. One of the best we had here and doing very well there. Try not to run another good one off. If you don't want to pay her freight then don't.

What the hell? Alot of you have said that a provider charges what she wants to and that the prices are not too high! A piece of ass is a piece of ass.

Period, Some are better than others I agree. Its all in preformance and attitude. 350 a hour miss golden pussy doubt that. I warned all of you that walkers were getting smart charging 150 and up when they sold it tricking for 20 to 40 on the street. I know of alot of them doing that. And your buying it. Feed the kids hell feed the needle and their BF, 98% are that way. One monger said on here he never paid for a street walker bullshit. He may have not known about it at the time but he did! The thought that I pay more money I get a cleaner pussy really? Doubt that too. ***** ***** *****. For 200 give them more time really it takes the average male 2. 5 min to get off. So give them more time don't reduce your fucking rates Hell no!! I've got a girl that charged me 45 in a threesome with her friend, she will charge you 200 to 250. ***** ***** *****.

[QUOTE=Ryann222;4964115]Condescending, that's a new one. I guess I can call you presumptuous for assuming you know anything about my life and how easy for me relocating would be.[/QUOTE]Nothing presumptouos about the condescending remark, maybe the moving remark was. I know nothing about your life and that is fine.

[QUOTE=Bullet454;4964484]Nothing presumptouos about the condescending remark, maybe the moving remark was. I know nothing about your life and that is fine.[/QUOTE]Talk down to people? He talked down to me. A post that only has my name and he doesn't know what's up with these girls and I must have fallen and bumped my head? You sound like the kind of guy that believes women belong in the kitchen. I'm allowed to speak when something pertains to me.

I'm risking getting COVID everyday. I stayed home for months. Not collecting unemployment, never having any kind of gov assistance, and not hitting one of you up EVER for a handout. I can charge whatever I want to. I'm not a junkie, I pay my taxes, and I'm reliable. HighLifeMan can defend himself you both are old enough to be my father. I already regret responding to this but I will never feel bad for cutting hhr during a pandemic and raising my price since becoming independent.

If I had the time to enjoy 60 min or so of quality fun with a quality woman without stupid drama or wait and play game. Or rush you in and out bs. I would have no issue dropping $$ to $$$ Lady J, torii in dayton when she was on her game, sincy cinnamon and jaxx are the top 4 I have ran across in the 6 to 7 years I've been in the hobby. There probably are several more and I haven't had the personal time to spend with them. My travel to and from time affects my play time so there are several I can't see. I'd love to see Ryann or even Molly Daniels but nky is a no go zone for me. I wish the ladies would traverse the 275 loop and possibly give us all a chance to see them. But I understand why they don't. This hobby is fun as hell but its a shit ton of work for guys with limited play time and area to cover. Keep reporting and keep us all safe providers too.

Ryann if you can move to something better and can do so by all means pack up the bags and move on down the road. JMO and not something to be concerned enough to comment on in any case.

However, the tone and remark about leaving because someone complained about 250 was what got me. It's this forums purpose to express opinions on performance, price, ect. If you can get 350 an hour I am happy for you. You are welcome to do as you please in regards to how you conduct business. I usually don't even read this section because if I wanted drama I would get a girlfriend. I stumbled in here by accident. Also, I may be numerically able to be your father I do not possess the will or desire to have children. So anyway have a good day.

Look little girl throw your temper tantrum some place else. Don't tell me you pay taxes WE ALL PAY TAXES, Who the hell you trying to bullshit, OLD ENOUGH TO BE YOUR FATHER! The older men have more money don't they. That's what your after more money, Then get out of the business. And COV19 so you didn't put ads up who cares. Why don't you put it up no men over 30 why not you don't like older men but its all money' Or do this Upgrade your clients to 20 to 25 year olds. There's more chance of getting COV19 now than before One thing for sure your the Queen of horseshit. Hey I'm 68 Too fucking old for you. LOL Lenny6746.

I may decide tomorrow I don't want to do this anymore and I may not come back".

Meaning one day, I'll disappear. I don't believe in drawing a bunch of attention to myself by announcing a "retirement" I think it's tacky and I don't really care for goodbyes.

Happy Labor Day.

Yep took my afternoon nap filling up a 25 yr old sorry I read this late I had to take her home. LOL.

[QUOTE=HighLifeMan;4962321]Hello everyone D Nut I am with you on this I am not paying that much they must fallen & bumped thier head. I know what's crazy like a month ago I contacted Ryyann that used to be with Steve of EE I seen her several times she told me You've seen me before so it's 250 all new people are 350 an hour I said no way When she was with Steve it was 150 hhr I mean she a nice girl a nice looking girl but no way am I paying that sorry. Thats ok I have a utr I see I just figured something different. I don't know what's up with these chick's Now a day's. Plus I think we really need some new material it's really became slim Pickens around here. Well everyone take care have a good one.[/QUOTE]I agree that a lot of the pricing seems to be crazy out of line. However, I don't think that's the case for the one lady you mentioned. I'm not really interested in the lowest price tag I can find. It's the old quality vs quantity argument. I would rather have 1 hour of great fun with a lovely young lady, who has a really good personality in a very nice hotel than 5 or 6 BJ's from street walkers in my car. She answers when you contact, whether she's available or not, keeps appointments, is clean and ready on time. That's what I'm looking for. Everyone has different tastes and I think her request is reasonable for what is offered. Now the new people popping up on Eros for 4, 5, or 6 are not going to ever hear from me.

Happy Labor Day.[/QUOTE]Whether you do away with half hour or not idc. As far s your pricing don't care get what you can when you can. The talking point I found off putting was about leaving because someone questioned 250 an hour. People are always going to question the worth of a commodity, especially one as subjective as looks, or sexual performance.
