Booking 101
In my short time advertising, it’s become abundantly clear that a lot of people are truly clueless about booking. I don’t have to share the terrors that lurk in my email inbox, all you need do is to glance at industry twitter accounts and you’ll find plenty of people griping about email mistakes and screw-ups. Believe me, we aren’t trying to be difficult and we want to meet you too! So I’ve decided to share a few tips for booking.
DO YOUR RESEARCH
When you find a companion you are interested in, do your research. READ their ads, chances are the answers to whatever questions you have may be in there or a link to their website and social media presence may be included. I know not all advertising websites allow for the companion to link to their website but we live in a blessed age, we have access to so much knowledge and we have so many tools to sift through this information. As patronizing as it sounds, Google is your friend. Researching the object of your desire can help you quell any skepticism regarding whether or not they are an actual person, it can give you clues and insights to the companion”s personalities and interests, or it can help you to discern just how accurate those pictures in the ad are. Many of us use our web presence as daily journals, some even have blogs (no shocker if you are reading this), there’s a wealth of information out there which can help you decide who to spend your time and money with. I even research people who men give to me as references! I also want to know if the people I am dealing with are reputable.
You may even find reviews, however, I would be cautious to these as some sites allow anyone to create an account and post a review, some even offer incentives for people to write reviews which may lead to some fake ones here or there. There are also many sexy companions who are amazing dates who have no reviews online because their suitors value discretion, which emphasizes once more why research is so important. You have so many options out there, why run into trouble when you could be enjoying the time of your life?
BE CONCISE.
While folks in the industry are amazing and often awe-inspiring I have a secret to tell you: We are not psychic. Most of the emails we receive have no information toward actually booking a rendezvous which only delays the goal of both parties. When contacting a companion include the following points:
Location.
Many of us advertise in multiple cities because we need to plan our tours in advance, it doesn’t help to get a message from somebody who is asking if they can see me tonight if I’m in Boston and they are in San Francisco.
Incall/Outcall.
This should be obvious, but for those who are absolute beginners or clueless, this is essential for planning. Calculating travels to outcalls or in calls is a factor (believe me, I wish I could teleport) and some of us share locations which means they may not always be available.
Date and time of appointment.
Give times and dates and the length of the appointment you desire. This will cut down on emails and get you closer to that meet up FASTER than emailing an endless chain. Telling a companion that you can meet up whenever they are free can raise a red flag to many companions, it reads time waster-y and wishy washy. It also assumes that what time we have free now will remain that way and no one is going to save that chunk of time without deposits and confirmations. We want concrete details. This will diminish the back and forth and have you on the fast track to bliss in no time. If you really want to have somebody excited about meeting you plan ahead, who doesn’t like a well thought out schedule?
BE POLITE.
This one is probably the most obvious but it still needs to be said. We respond much better to people who aren’t entitled or creepy in messages. It’s generally best to stick to just the facts and then maybe throw in one point of conversation or observation that you may have made while researching your new friend. Please stick to lines of conversation that you would discuss only in polite company as overtly sexual messages in our inbox are usually a one-way ticket to the spam box. Also, when a companion requests verification, please do not be a dick about it or try to talk your way out of it. As a general rule if you have something rude or impolite to say it doesn’t need an email and it will end up deleted, in spam, and possibly screen-capped and posted on social media.
There are of course many more things to consider when making a booking but I personally believe that these are the fundamentals to getting you and your new friend to exactly where you want to be. 😈
