I would say that most ladies either post their info in their ads and if not they include links to their websites. Some of us utilize the "about me" tab to explain as much as we can.

 

Don't be lazy...get your ducks in a row and everyone will have a much more satisfying time!

[SexxxyRebecca 57989]

I agree Meg.... or please take a look at our pictures before.. dont ask questions like ''What you look like....?'' I just had somebody who asked me if Im white or black.... ??? Its insulting when people contact us dont even bother to read our ads or look the pictures...

[KaceyKatzegeist 152]

Clearly, you ladies expect high things of men thinking with their penises. ;) I kid, I kid.

 

I do however agree that if you're going to book someone, do your research a bit first. It won't kill you.

And about ducks.... as open minded as many providers are, ducks are rather off putting for nearly all of them. Believe me. It pretty much applies to all water fowl. Don't think it would be cute to bring a duck, a goose, a gull, a tern or a sand piper.

 

Sea creatures in general -like seals, walrussesesessessses, mollusks, narwhals, octopi, squid and eels - keep them in the safety of your own bedroom.

 

Just helping out... carry on.

i have to admit... i lol'd

 

but yeah for those of you who dont pay enough attention and ask questions that are already answered in ads or websites, you need to have your head read. why do you think the women have ads or websites or even pictures... if they didnt want to disclose the info they put in the ads or websites, they would just post phone numbers and thats it

[Annessa 22743]

To add to what meg has already said, I have had a strange experience with clients who have already booked and aside from asking 'the important questions" after the fact of booking also ask "oh and by the way, I'm considering a duo, do you have any girlfriends you could bring along with you"....this would be fine if it wasn't asked THE DAY OF THE SCHEDULED BOOKING! It takes time to move around my own schedule...much less try and factor in another lady's. Either way most that have asked end up falling into the WOT category.....figure out what you want before you commit to the encounter and confirm, guys. its not much to ask....and anything less will make you look as though you're not exactly sure what you want....bit of a red flag for us.

I have to say that whenever someone contacts me about my ad to ask for "more info" (usually all answered on my site) or to ask questions which have already been answered on my site or ad, it is a HUGEEEEE turn off! I try to remain positive as much as I can but it really irks me.

 

Thank you to those who don't do this though, it makes me really happy and it automatically makes me feel that more comfortable with you if we're meeting for the first time!

When I contact a lady, it's to introduce myself, what sort of encounter I like (example I prefer gfe to pse) and even though not all ladies care, I give them personal details (age, body type, I'm bald etc) about myself.

If required, I provide verification information too.

When it comes to reading the website for compensation I do agree with the ladies 100%, with one caveat. I once had an encounter (turned out to be the encounter from hell...but I digress), planned a few months in advance. At the time of scheduling the rate was set at a certain price for three hours. But from the time of original scheduling to the time of the encounter her rates had changed. I contacted her to confirm whether original rate or new rate.

But it wasn't to haggle over her price, or ask, just there was a change in rate, and wanted to know the rate

A quick rambling

Speaking of strange experiences, I had one lady (and she's a great lady btw, this is kinda posted in the lighter vein, for a laugh) send me a text message a month before our encounter, asking if we were still on for tomorrow...well RG's stomach went into knots (not a pretty sight), heart pumping into overdrive, I'm thinking who have I forgotten???

And I didn't know who it was right away, since I didn't have her name in my address book (at that point in time after every encounter I deleted all names/numbers off my phone...now I don't). Found out who it was, a lady I was going to be spending my one year anniversary of seeing SP's with, but the encounter was a month away, not the next day

But it's one of those life happens experiences, and you can share a laugh over it

Oh, and when that month came up, she and I had a great three hours together.

Back before I discovered CERB I did encounter a few ladies that won't, simply won't see a new client without a one hour, in person introductory luncheon at a suitable public restaurant first (and for a fee of course to cover their time). I mention this because you never see it here (well I did just once). Quite frankly I was kind of surprised when I discovered CERB and found that most ladies were willing to book a 4 or 5 hour private time appointment without ever having met me before.

 

I thought this was an excellent way to make sure you are both compatible so I've kind of adopted it also (with some exceptions). So now if I'm considering seeing a lady I haven't before I might invite her to a nice lunch first. Note this isn't a "job interview" in any way, it's more a way to get to know the person and that there is some compatibility, synergy even energy and if you do then book a longer appointment you have a way better sense of who you will be seeing and spending some time with having already met them. It always worked very well in the past for me and for the lady also.

 

If I'm going to invest in 4 or 5 hours of a ladies time, I think we all know most of it won't involve those private moments in time so she needs to be someone I'd really like to hang out with for a while. Works better for me than flying blind or on instruments alone (IFR versus VFR).

 

Perhaps some ladies will consider offering this (most all do if you ask) but it could be at a slightly reduced rate for those on a budget and the lady gets a free meal (and they say there is no free lunch).

 

Of course the meal never involved ducks :)

[SamanthaEvans 166767]

I do offer social meetings at a lower rate than for a private engagement. I agree that this is a very good way to connect with someone and see how the chemistry is before committing to a longer meeting. I'm also willing to exchange e-mail and have a phone conversation or two before meeting if that helps to set a prospective visitor's mind at ease. Ensuring that we're both comfortable with each other is one of my highest priorities.

Haha lol I have to laugh because sometimes I think reading is just like a long lost piece of ancient mystical art for some...

 

My ad will say I am visiting from xday to xday, will ask to be contacted via email only and will say to visit my website

for more information about me and/or my donation. What do you think happens?

 

"Hey there,

I just saw your ad saying you will be visiting from the 15th-17th. Can I see you on the 19th? What about your rates?

Do you offer half hours? How tall are you? Please get back to me."

 

How ironic when it is also sent via PM lol

What is it with the "Hey there"? Is that an English thing or a common saying instead of using someone's name?

I hear you, Gabriella. The funniest ones I get are (considering my handle is Angela of Ottawa): Are you in Ottawa?

 

At least "Hey there" is politer than the texts or emails that start with "Yo, escort lady" or "Waddup" or "Wassup" which don't get answered.

[Gabriella Laurence 301887]

Sure, I'll stick around for an extra couple of days for a half hour appointment but know that this half hour

is going to be damn expensive lol

My comment was a sarcastic one and a joke... I do not offer 30 minute encounters.

[Secrets of Victoria 7208]

I really liked this reply!

It does irk me when someone asks me for more info, where I am located, what I look like ...... read the profiles! lol

I think it bothers me because we have all our info on websites and ads here, but the guys have nothing! (well not all of them, but a lot of them!)

 

We have no idea on what a guy looks like most of the time, where they are located, or even what they want in booking.

I do not like the pm's that just state, 'how much baby' wtf?

 

If I have an ad, please look at it, it lists what I do, what I offer, donations and general location.

It's not rocket science!

I am on the calender, I have posts, I have ads and specials, all of us as sp's do.

 

I do offer a meet and greet with someone that is new to me, that is at a reduced rate (after all, I am getting fed here! lol) and I find it ia a great way to find out more about what the client wants and needs are.

there are quite a few of us that offer that.

 

I, personally, would not want to book someone new for 4-5 hours without either a recommendation from another lady, or meeting them first.

 

I am enjoying this thread and some of the reactions to it.

Thanks Victoria! I have taken a little flack in other threads against some of my more progressive policies (100% reimbursement if I have to cancel less than 72 hours before -- but if you could afford to visit the lady then you can afford to do this when YOU are the one that has to cancel, etc.). I so hate to put it this way (as there is so much more to it) but the development of good "supplier relationships" can't be under stated in general business. In this business in particular, the development of trusted "professional" friendships is critical.

 

We have no idea on what a guy looks like most of the time, where they are located, or even what they want in booking.

 

Yes and the last two ladies I have met would be able to attest that I sent them a very clear photo portrait such that they could recognize me at a great distance before meeting. I can only imagine that it must be hard for the lady starting around T minus 5 or 10 minutes before a meeting and not knowing who is going to show up or having any idea what they even look like. Other more progressive attitudes are producing my driver's license or passport for her inspection at the very start of any private meeting - the more relaxed and comfortable she is around me the better the experience for both of us.

 

So ladies, always guarantee the utmost discretion and privacy in your ad and also offer introductory luncheon dates, works so much better than a blind date.

[Guest LittleWingnut]

I very much enjoy doing my homework as I'm fully informed and enjoy the anticipation of the encounter. Be real and be honest.
