slurp 7020 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 I just posted something in a reco for a first time visitor to Ottawa. This has been an issue as long as I have lived here and has cost us the company of many outstanding women. Here is the post: "Ok, I've gotten several PMs telling me how wonderful XXXX is and thanking me for the reco. Wondering why they aren't adding to this? I'm asking for purely selfish reasons, I want to be sure she is here so I can see her again! Here's what one PM said about her: "Thanks for your XXXX review. I met her tonight and she was a gem. Like, you she managed to slip on a hat without my realizing. I was totally stunned when I found that it was already on. She's remarkable!" This applies to anyone, not just Yoko. If you like a girl be sure to tell everyone. Some of them will leave town early if they are not busy, others will not return. It's crazy not to share info about a good provider, even if it makes her harder to see. At least she will be here to see eventually!" Come on guys, this helps everyone. It's a no brainer! Please???? 17 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cleo Catra 178382 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 GOod post! :) I've heard some gentlemen say they don't write a reco so they can try and 'keep a lady for himself'. But not letting others know how great your SP/MA is will NOT keep her all for you, it will put her out of business! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 Recommendations are good for both ladies and gentlemen. Provides the ladies with feedback, and endorsements so to speak, and for the gentlemen, names of ladies they might like to see in the future...really a win-win. Encouraging gentlemen to write recommendations should be done...but keep in mind some guys are uncomfortable writing. I know when I first embarked on this lifestyle I was uncomfortable writing about what was (and is) a private intimate encounter. But I learned that recommendations were an accepted part of this lifestyle, and I've become more comfortable about it One other thing, some ladies don't like recommendations being written, and that should be kept in mind But yes, encouraging the writing of recommendations should be done. And I'll take it one step further, IMHO there is nothing wrong with a lady asking/saying to a client, words to the effect "if you had a good time, I would appreciate if you could write a recommendation" Just a quick rambling RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emma Alexandra 123368 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 The thing about recos is that you don't have to write a story....a few words can go along way. All you have to say is something like: I highly recommend this lady. Yes it's that easy. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightyMouse 839 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 It nevers hurts to write a reco even if it's a little late. These ladies go out of their way here in Ottawa and should always be given a well deserved recommendation I say. I understand that YMMV and both the client and SP or MA may not click at the best of times. If I'm happy with my experience, I will always make sure she knows about it!!!

Studio 110 by Sophia 150333 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 Yes it is always nice to see a reco on your services. It allows you to know what it is that people are enjoying about your services. I am always seeing in discussion threads, " can any one recommend someone from....." And I always wonder why they are not looking in the actual reco threads? Also some people I know may be shy, but if you had taken the time to read a reco, then from reading that you decide to book that SP, why not add a few comments to support the reco? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ou**or**n Report post Posted January 24, 2012 I can't afford to be a sugar daddy and keep some girl all to myself. So I'm happy to share my experiences so other guys will pitch in and keep her in this business. That way she is there next time I want to see her. I'm with Slurp, a big +1 for more guys pitching in. We've had a few members that were big on writing recos either leave or go radio silent so we need others to jump in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted January 24, 2012 1. Be honest. If you exaggerate your sexual prowess, you diminish the power of the recommendation. No one will believe that you came 14 times in a 1 hour booking and that the power of your splooge knocked a hole in the wall. Stick to the credible events. 2. Concentrate on HER. The thought of your large hairy white ass shaking the bed while you attempt to reach climax does nothing to titillate me. It gives me penis deflatus. On the other hand, her acumen, her abilities, her look, her style does titillate me. It gives me penis inflatus. 3. Don't write up your FIRST experience until after your second experience. Let's face it. Your first time, your very first time with an SP is amazing. She did things to you that you only imagined in the wateriest of your wet dreams. You won't know how amazing she was until you have something to measure it against... and your right hand doesn't count. 4. Don't be afraid to say "it was incredible." As Emma has said, it is possible to achieve your goal of expressing delight in a very few words. 5. If it was bad, keep it to yourself. CERB is a recommendation board. Personal tastes vary. I FUCKING LOVE brussel sprouts. My kid FUCKING HATES brussel sprouts. See what I mean? Just because you didn't click doesn't mean she was bad, it may just mean that you and she aren't compatible. Nobody else needs to know. Plus it's a rule. An important rule. MOD made that rule. MOD is omnipotent. He has the power to kill you with a single glance. Okay, maybe not the single glance thing. 6. If you are going to write an erotic novel in the reco thread, get it pre-approved. Not everyone is comfortable with graphic accounts of your sexual odyssey. You may think you have written an amazing tale, but if she says she isn't comfortable with what you have written, see rule # 4. If she likes what you have written, fill your boots... publish. 7. Some things are better left unsaid. If you were pleasantly surprised by something that just "happened" don't brag. You may have received a bonus, but no one else needs to know. Nudge nudge, wink wink, SAY NO MORE. 8. Rebooking is the best recommendation. Let's face the facts. A recommendation is fantastic but it doesn't pay the bills. If you had the bestest wobbly at the knees tingling at your toes head in the clouds experience, the best way to show your gratitude is a series of return engagements. Write a reco by all means, but back it up with greenbacks. 9. TOFTT The concept of "taking one for the team" doesn't really make sense. You booked, you paid, you came, you went home. I didn't even feel a tingle. The addition of these letters doesn't do anyone justice. Leave it out of recos. 10. Make all your recommendations sound like they were being narrated by Morgan Freeman. I'm just fucking with ya. Morgan Freeman played God. He shouldn't be reciting erotic stuff. Try Samuel L Jackson. 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And when you get new guys contributing to the recommendations, it validates the recommendations already posted by the usual recommendation writers. New writers equal new blood so to speak.

But not letting others know how great your SP/MA is will NOT keep her all for you, it will put her out of business! Apparently this is something of an issue, I'm told, around Montreal? Agree with slurp and Gabriella obviously. I can say that I have always left a recommendation with every lady that I .... uh .... feel comfortable writing one about, but that's almost always. I can also say that I have always written a follow up recommendation whenever I see a lady again. Its a big help to the ladies because of how fast recommendations move out of the most recent list, and some guys just browse around and see the most recently reviewed ladies first. BTW, that's arguably a problem with the recos, but that's a separate issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted January 24, 2012 I can also say that I have always written a follow up recommendation whenever I see a lady again. I always struggle with that one. I'm never really sure what will come across as enthusiasm and what will come across as shilling... and if people get the idea that someone's shilling for a lady that probably won't help her. One thing that's very noticeable is that ladies tend to get a lot of reviews early on, as people see them for the first time... and then fewer and fewer, which is presumably just because people aren't writing recos for subsequent visits.

BTW, that's arguably a problem with the recos, but that's a separate issue. That's not a problem with recos (provided it's because of newer genuine recos being written for other ladies, rather than threads being bumped); it's a problem with people who can't be bothered to do their research. There's limits to how much we can spoon-feed people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not dead people i'm still ALIVE...lmao What you just post Emma got me to thinking, and I hope I'm getting this right. Some ladies who tour, they go to what I'll call, non mainstream cities (smaller populations and off the beaten path so to speak) If no recommendations come from that particular city after the lady tours, well the next time the lady chooses to tour there, she may get less bookings. And why, few if any recommendations for the touring lady from a non mainstream city may lead guys to seek other ladies. Soon, it isn't worth her while to go to the non mainstream cities, and just stick with bigger cities where the expenses associated with her touring she gets back in enough bookings So if you want one way to ensure touring ladies to keep coming back to your city, or put your city on her touring list, follow up the encounter with a recommendation A quick rambling RG 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many ladies including myself visit there..But we hardly ever see new people. I love my regs in Ottawa if it wasn't for them i wouldn't be going there at all. They however don't do recos. So one can get lost in the shuffle ...i would say that most visiting ladies after a time will stop going..for this very reason..if the guys want us to keep going then recos should be done...if not then we will slowly but surely fade into the other cities. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's limits to how much we can spoon-feed people. You're right, but I think the ladies still like to spend a little time at the top of the recommendation list. For me, it can simply be a few lines confirming impressions made at an prior meeting and that my feelings haven't changed. Also, as to the reco. threads, I think it would be possible to fit more in by shrinking the size of each one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The best way to keep the girl stay in town is make them busy. Lots of customer ask me about why we only keep girls for 2 weeks or less. We are not kick the girl out,it is all because the girl do not have enough income to support them for stay. If the SP made you happy, please share something on the board. In that way we can make them stay in town for longer time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JodyWild 4740 Report post Posted January 24, 2012 I Agree, It Is Kind Of A Good Thing On Both Sides When It Comes To Recos. Like I Do Understand Some Men Are Shy & Are Iffy On Writing Recos...But It Does Help Both The Men & Women On Here. For Instance Some Ladies Like To Hear Good Feedback Sometimes,& Can Give Some Ladies A Boost.& For The Men It Helps Them With The Choice. I Have Had Men Come To Me Plenty Of Times Asking For Recos But I Don't Have Many:( Due To The Lack Of Recos.....But In Chat I'm Always Hearing Oh I Asksed This Person & They Recommended You. Like You Couldn't Have Taken The Time To Leave A Reco.Even A Simple I Really Enjoyed My Time With This Lady, Or I Highly Recommend This Lady. You Don't Have To Go Into Full Blown Out Detail In Your Reco. Bottom Line I Agree It Helps Both The Ladies & Gents On The Site Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrgreen760 37785 Report post Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) I've only ever written one or two recommendations, I've added afirmative comments to a recos thread a couple of times as well. It sort of equals the number that I'd ever repeat with, personally I don't think it's appropriate for me to write one if I have no plan to repeat.

promdi 381 Report post Posted January 28, 2012 I have been a member of CERB for a while now and relied on recommendations here to find SPs. However, I never write any recos and I realized lately it will be problem if it (the recos) dry up. I decided to start contributing and I will write my first reco soon. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sexy skyy 1077 Report post Posted February 1, 2012 In reading the opinions expressed I have to agree that requesting a recommendation is "tacky". I see that most gentlemen do ask other gentlemen for advice in whom to see and usually responses are made by private message and can become a reveiw. A recommendation is always welcome as it assists the ladies, let's face it this is our main source of income for most, and a good word in any business goes a long way. I have never asked or requested a recommendation, but would hope that if a gentleman I see who would not be "willing" (not saying he has to but would normally)to post one he would let me know because this means something about our time together made him unhappy and he may not return. As with some of the other ladies I would be happy to receive kind words that tell others my pictures are real, I am a pleasure to spend time with and that return visits will be forthcoming. I prefer returning gentlemen to having a revolving door with a view to see how busy I can be The ultimate compliment is seeing you again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
