I have one suggestion. I would start an email newsletter list. You can use mail chimp, it is free. You set up one newsletter email per month with a small discount from your higher rate to those on your mailing list. This gives posters like above me, to not miss the chance to see you at a little lower rate and maybe they won't wait so long because that special is only offered for that month. I do do this as Durham is a lower price point in the market then our neighbours in Toronto but my rates are more akin to those TO rates. I believe mine are the highest in the region. This helps bring some clients who would not normally be able to see me. This is way you are not offering public discounts that can bite you in the ass and you can work on building clientele in your new price market. Remember, your type of client is going to change based on the rate. You have now jumped into a different market and they may need something else to help book. Maybe it is pro pics, maybe a different style in website, maybe they want more pics or more thought provoking writing on your ads and site. You may just need a little tweak. Also your advertising venues may not support your new rate. If you jump from a $80 LL girl to a $250/hr lady, then maybe LL is not the place to put all your ad money. I hope some some of that makes sense. I'm slightly rushed but wanted to get some of this down for you. Please feel free to PM me and we can chat more about it if you like.

Standard VIP routine, however, subpar performance. I would rate 5 / 10. Was receptive to DATY and heavy on the BLS. I would say early 30’s and could speak a little english.

As a provider charge what you feel you are comfortable with...if they want to see you they will pay it I offer three different rates and still get those who try to negotiate Go figure lol

As with anything, it's all about supply and demand. If you want less business, increase your rates, more business, lower them. I'm sure there are SPs here who find themselves working more than they want to (maybe they've got other full time jobs, or only want weekend work), so rather than turn people away, the best way to solve that problem is increase the price a bit. I've also seen SPs lower their prices, and I would assume that is to try to bring in more clients if things are slower than they'd like. To answer your question about whether or not it was a smart move, only you can decide on that. If you were hoping for a decrease in business, and you're happy to have achieved that, then that's a positive thing, if you were just hoping for an increase in income, while seeing the same amount of people, but that hasn't happened, then maybe it isn't a smart move. If you're hoping to maintain the same level of clients, and increasing the price has had a negative effect on that, you could consider some other options to try to bring in more business. Your availability doesn't really work at all for anyone who works a Monday to Friday day time job, as likely a lot here do, if you can change that, you can probably bring in more business. Any boundaries you set, only serve to potentially decrease business. By limiting your schedule to those days, stating that you prefer 24 hours notice, but maybe can work with 3 maybe, asking people not to text after 10, etc, you have a lot of people possibly ruled out from sending you a message. Also I can see people interested in kink sessions being turned off by a 2 hour minimum. Often times boundaries/safewords, etc are discussed prior via email, quickly firmed up upon meeting, and isn't considered billable time at the full rate for the session. You could consider a 1 hour minimum for kink sessions, but a slightly higher rate than non kink sessions to make up for a 10 to 15 minute discussion at the start on what's going to take place. Anyway, I hope you don't take this the wrong way. I'm not suggesting that your rates are too high, or that any of your stipulations are unreasonable, but regardless rate increases, and boundaries will still have the same effect of potentially limiting your business, so if you want more business, you've gotta figure out which of those things you can adjust, or other ways to add value, or just deal with the level of business you have as a result. Most of the time when I meet up with an SP it's a last minute decision, and I send a text, then within an hour or 2 meet up with them. I've planned out things a day ahead and half the time it doesn't work out because they cancel, forget, don't text back till it's too late, or very occasionally something could come up with me. Some people have families or whatever and don't know 24 hours prior if they're going to be able to get away, etc.

I'll reply to this one first, just so others know too.. by responding to these points, may answer other below questions. My half hour rates were raised by $100 to stop fuck and dumps. I was having an internal battle on whether or not I wanted to offer half hours at all anymore, due to the the sexting and no actual booked time, no shows, or even 2am wake up calls. I dont cater to drunk men (I don't believe consent can be given while drunk). I require a 24 hour heads up, majority of the time, because I do this out of my one bedroom home, while also having a full time girlfriend who has serious health issues. I book my time around her. Most of my clients have been before 10am or after 12. I rarely have my clients ask for evening times. Solely because that's not the clientelle I cater to. The hobbiests who text and arrive, are the ones I dont make time for. I'm sorry. But I can only do so much with the space I have. I had someone inbox me and tell me DFK and BBBJ were mandatory parts of GFE, so I should take down my 'safe play' statement. I for one completely disagree. I do not offer bb of any kind, and kissing is the lease likely way to contract anything other than mono(kissing sickness). Heres a break down of my rates and how the jumped: $80/HH is now $180 - for the reasons above. $150/H is now $260 - now in the middle range of rates. $300/2H is now $500 - same rate as most SPs who offer the same services as I do. Kink sessions have been changed from 1 hour minimum, to 2 hour, because 99% of the messages I receive from kinksters is all sexting about what they want me to do to them and then never book my time. This way, if someone is genuine and I build a bond, after our first meeting, our actual play time will greatly increase. I refuse to play with a bottom, if I cant get to know them as much as I can within our session. Kink isnt just about sex (as most of my kink session dont actually include penetrative sex) it's about control and that person giving it with full trust. That takes time. Someone also mentioned pictures.... Some of you may not know this, but I'm a cam girl and model on the side. I'm an amateur adult film producer. My professional photos and videos are not something I lack in, they are just for sale, not for free eyes. Huge thank you to everyone who commented. I appreciate the support so much. I hope I can figure things out so everyone is happier. --- Jessica, if you dont mind, I'll send you a message soon.

Just throwing this in the discussion for now, since this thread is recent and being that we are at the beginning of spring time maybe some guys are busy going to the cottage, getting the boat ready for fishing, saving up for a new car, etc... All I'm saying is that it's possible that many of us have priority once the snow is gone. Just saying...

SarahAlexx, your new rates are not too high. You provide an excellent, professional experience, a decent location and you’re gorgeous. You’re prior rated we’re too low. You’re worth every penny of you’re new rates.

Well in her case it appears to be that simple.. Her rates increased, and her business went down. "change/lack of clientele due to rates? I just feel like I've lost many people due to the fact that I've changed them." It's simple economics. Yeah of course there's always more to it as with anything, but in general the idea applies. I've got a couple of regular SPs that I see, and I've been to a couple new ones lately. The new ones that I saw, I enjoyed my time with, but less than I do with one in particular, and the one I enjoy my time most with costs less than either of the other two I tried out recently. After I visited her once or twice, she offered me a new rate, and I keep returning. I do visit others to see if I'd enjoy their time even more, and if I did then perhaps it would be worth their increased cost. But as it is, I can pay $200 per hour for the one I have enjoyed the most, or $320 to $360 per hour for ones I enjoyed, but to a lesser extent. So I wouldn't bother returning to see those SPs, partially due to the rate, but also due to enjoying my time more with others.

Those are all valid reasons to me, and you don't even have to justify that to any of us anyway, it's your call to make. But it's also you who lives with whatever good or bad consequences come from that I suppose. If your objective in raises your prices was to get rid of losers doing that sort of stuff, you could consider offering a discount to return clients who you trust aren't going to do that, and who you enjoy working with. When I'm browsing ads, I like seeing that I may be offered a better rate if I'm to become a regular. One of the SPs I visit a bunch, I visit significantly more often due to the cheaper rate she offered me, than I would be able to/ want to otherwise. Hopefully that would get you the best of both worlds in terms of fixing the issues with idiots, and also keeping your good clients returning lots. To me, your old rates seem like they were quite low, so I'd imagine you had a lot of time wasters and idiots messaging you trying to take advantage of that. I don't think I ever noticed your rates prior to this thread. I certainly hadn't noticed they were that low.

If you really want to build a more profitable customer base going forward, then re-read PeterConrad's postings to you - again and again. He makes some excellent suggestions. Price and service level are always reasons why customers choose and become regulars. You have cultivated your existing base by these very two elements. Now you have change one - price. Some leave you due to limited capacity to pay, others to a sense they are being overcharged for something they used to get cheaper and others thing "if I have to pay this much I may as well try some variety". It will take time to cultivate a new customer base. Can you afford the loss in revenue? You know, you could offer existing customers only a small increase for the next year and new customers the full new price. This would soften the transition to new pricing. As would many of Peter's suggestions.

I agree with Greenteal above. Your rates did jump significantly, but from what I’ve seen and read about you, you were asking well below “market value”. You are definitely asking above average now, but if you offer an incredible experience then it’s likely justified, and those that think so will keep coming back. Personally, I am definitely hoping to be booking a date with you soon, regardless! (Maybe you should have a Lyla member special rate... lol 😉)

Agreed on all the comments above and never to forget it is a luxury service we as hobbyist cherish. Prices are going up with everything, cost of living and so on. As a provider you are setting your own price according to your own costs and service you provide. Just like with anything we like to "purchase", there is always some shopping going on. We all do it on a daily basis. Like a cost to benefit kind of thing, to put it a blunt way. As a hobbyist and in my humble opinion, providers are in a service industry and depending on the service, there is a cost to it. If a provider increases her rates slightly and nothing has changed in the service provided, location and surroundings, then it may be due to the cost of living. That is understandable. Anything above and beyond, I would not be surprised if you see some changes in your customer base. Hope everything works out for you ....

I admit, if a provider that I'm a regular with raises her rates, I'd at least be prompted to go looking. Doesn't mean I won't continue seeing her, but yes price is a factor in seeing a provider. Especially for people who don't have a big budget and especially since paying for services is not a necessity but a luxury. Sexual services are also touchy and can trigger an emotional response, if the client feels they have a connection with you, a price increase can feel like a form of rejection even if it's not. I have no idea your rates but lets just say you raised it just $20. If I was an existing client and a regular I'd be thinking well can I find the same or better value with another provider? With that $20 I could get some weed, I could get some cigarettes, I could get some beer, I could get some groceries so do I want to skip spending that money on those things or do I want to continue seeing that specific provider.

I have had a vitamix for 3 years now and I love it, from smoothies to soup a perfect kitchen appliance.

Today was a couple of highlights. Did my grocery shopping and going through the check out earned enough Air Miles Points to get a $10.00 gift card at the grocery store. And when I got home sitting waiting for me was my Vitamix blender that I ordered last week. It's already had it's first blend (ok it was the washing blend but a blend is a blend LOL)… Right now its in the dishrack drying (may even be dry by now). Tonight I'm going to be bad and have a milkshake...no not a smoothie, but an ice cream milkshake...tomorrow the Vitamix will be used for goodness, not evil LOL A Rambling RG

So I think it was greenteal that linked me this topic after I asked if anyone has fallen in love with an sp in a separate topic. Anyway I think I’ve read this topic three times in the past couple weeks and just wasn’t sure if I had anything to contribute. However I do have some knowledge in this area. While it is true that most sp/client relationships should stay that way, we are all adults here and as long as it’s mutual there is nothing wrong with going beyond that. But it has to be mutual.. Take myself for example, I’ve never shared this however since there a certain anonymity here it’s not like you all know me. Back in the early 2000’s I met an sp as a client, spent only an hour and a half with her, it was a good experience, and I figured we’d go our separate ways and that would be the end of it. Anyway low and behold the next day I got a message from her asking if i wanted to hang out. I advised her I didn’t have any money that night (I was spending my osap money) so I would be unable to visit with her and I figured she was just trying to maybe hit me up for another evening and when I declined I thought that’s where it would have ended. However she said it was no charge just come over. So me being young and dumb sure I went over. We spent the whole night together, I figured she was lonely, so it was an odd experience for me to say the least as I had read threads on terb at the time that the client/sp boundary is sacred and never to be crossed. Anyway we continued to see eachother for about a week while she continued to work as an sp. (I got an interesting inside look into it then too) At this point we had started to really develop feelings for eachother and decided to change the relationship and started dating. She decided at that point to quit being an sp. We were married 6 weeks later and have been married for nearly 20 years now.. So my point is, while there is an established boundary with a client/sp, there is no carved in stone rule and nothing wrong with two consenting adults wishing to take the relationship somewhere different.

I think most would agree you should charge more than what you were charging. The sticking point is probably how much the increase is (more than doubled). However depending on what you're looking to accomplish it may be the right move. Personally i will see you again but probably less often and it will likely cause ppl to look around.

Have seen Miss Alexxx now three times and my experience was unreal all 3 times. So much fun to spend time with her. Can’t say more than what has already been said except it’s actually better than what’s been said when you get to live it. ML

Had the pleasure of seeing Bianca yesterday, and wow, this lady really knows how to treat a man! From the moment I arrived she put me at ease, and then proceeded to make sure I enjoyed every second of our rendezvous. She is a mature beauty with a very youthful rocking hot body. I am looking forward to seeing her again the next time she is in town.

I finally met with the wonderful Vivian, the one that everyone is talking about and I must admit that what they are saying is true, she is a gem. Booking with her was easy and she responded quickly to my text. Plenty of free parking in her area and she lives in a clean apartment building in a nice part of town. When I entered the room she was hiding behind the door and I had to adjust my eyes the dim lights but as soon as I did I could see how gorgeous Vivian was. I asked to take a shower although I was clean I wanted to be fresh, she then told me to lay on the massage table set up in a room. The massage table is quite low, I don't think I ever been that close to the ground for a massage before, keep in mind that Vivian is short lady. She entered the room and finished drying my back we had small talk and then proceeded to rubbing my back with oil, her massage are awesome(she had training) knowing exactly where to rub and removing knots in my back. It felt really good having someone giving a good massage like she did. Having learned massage skills in my younger days I offered to give her one and she accepted so it was her turn to lay down and getting a massage in return. Vivian enjoyed it very much and it doesn't take long to massage her back side, she is so tiny that my big hands covered the entire back(ok not that small but you get the picture) and her legs and her neck. I finally gave her my specialty called the "sleep wave" which usually puts a person to sleep. Not quite with her, she told me afterward that I should have rocked her harder to accomplish the mission. It was back to Vivian to complete giving me the massage I came in for, she did and it was wonderful. I agree with what Luckyme said, after seeing Vivian once you will want to see her again and again and again. Vivian get a Top Notch seal of approval from me. Thanks again Vivian

Look a unicorn....those are hard to find !

Met with Miss Alexx last Saturday, and from the first text to the booking of the appointment was easy. I was still a little nervous meeting her but when she opened the......wow! Those eyes drew me right in. She put me at total ease and made me feel comfortable. It felt like we could talk for hours and just about anything. She is a true gfe in every aspect. I will definitely be repeating and hoping to see her regularly. Make sure if you have a chance to see Miss Alexx....you do!!!

Miss Alexxx is taking appointments for the week of April 16th - 20th. When booking a session, please keep in mind that your service is being provided in a home. Pre-booked sessions are a requirement, as I have a girlfriend who is also taken into account. Please respect that. Rates and Services: $300/2hrs $150/hr* $80/hh GFE/PSE/FS/DATY/COB/MSOG/KINK/FETISH *All kink sessions must be a minimum of 1 hour. No exceptions.

I had spent a wonderful time with Vivian one afternoon. She is an independent MA and her location is quite discreet at Centertown. Her place is in a low-rise apartment, it is not really on the main busy street and there are not many shops around. This place seems to be even more quiet especially during the winter. As I stepped inside her apt, I could feel an immediate warm and coziness. It was clean and a dimmed lighting was nicely adjusted, which gave a unique mysterious ambience. Her spacious massage room itself took the largest space in her apt with a very mystical red floor lamp and very soft music was played. Her amazing physical stats and lovely appearance had been precisely complimented by many gentlemen in the previous posts which I will not repeat here. I really enjoyed her massage- the first trip was a strong and firm, second was the fingertip touch and the final was the most sensual part, sometimes with unexpected combinations that deliver an ecstatic pleasure. We tried several sexy positions but the one I prefer the most involves lots of mutual and intimate touching, while both of us making the eye contact most of the time. Besides being very safe and hygienic, Vivian offers her very own 'genre' of sensual massage which set a perfect synergy between a firm massage and ero*** strokes that you couldn't possibly find elsewhere. All you need to do is to synchronize with her and she would be able to create a hell of a lot of fun moments with you. The sexual chemistry with mutual exploration and teasing that you craft with her could be truly stimulating. I truly recommend any gentleman out there to see Vivian, a sexy Asian goddess who provides an exceptional blend of both therapeutic and sensual massage, one of the best in Ottawa. She will return you with her best service if you respect all her personal boundaries and be the greatest gentleman. The same golden rules apply when you meet any fine lady out there.
