I have alot of regulars actually , most of them visit with me once a week , or every other week , there are a few only once a month though , a good provider knows how to adapt to her clients needs , and pamper them , so that every next visit leaves them waiting for just that , to have they're individual needs pampered to.
What percentage of your clients have seen you 4 or more times ?

I find that percentage hard to believe. My experience with my atfs led me to believe that at least half, if not most of their business were with new clients. Certainly the reviews are mostly by one timers and they are always wanting new reviews to ramp up business. And I've always felt that my atfs were fairly low volume. Hmm...this gives me food for thought and makes me rethink some of my assumptions about my specialness to my atfs. Conversely, it always seemed to me that most hobbyists didn't revisit providers that often.
I do have LOTS of repeated clients and I would say it represents 50% of my business. Also, it depends on which incall location I am.
I do incalls in couple places where I get 80% of repeated clients. When I go there, sometimes I don't need post online or in my calendar because I'm booked up.

Seems to be about 50% of the time as there are variables on that number itself, but I can lie if you want me too!..lol
So again. as FOR ME. 80%ish. There arent many providers in Buffalo...not to mention, the whole THREE other providers here, offer incall,cept in a hotel. Which most locals from Buffalo frown on.. Again. that is how it is in MY city. Doesnt necessarily mean every city. So due to that.. there are LOTS of regular locals.. and due to THAT, There are lots of return out of towners..
.. and never regain the strength to return! LOL!
I see only a handful of guys and most of them are regulars. I prefer getting to know the men I see really well on an intellectural and emotional as well as physical level.
...I'm curious as to what your definiton of "a regular" is? Do most of you have a "magic number" before you consider someone a regular? For instance, I've repeated with a handfull of providers. Seen a couple of those 4 times. I'm wondering if I'm likely to be considered a "regular". FYI- I saw the first of my ATF's 1x month for 3 months, then saw her again after a 6-month hiatus (in which I saw other providers). The second of my ATF's, I've seen 1x month for approx. the past 4 months. However due to some low finances and her rather steep price, it will likely take me several months to build up my "stash" for her. BTW, that's the way I hobby. As a married man whose wife balances the checkbook and pays at least half the bills, I have to squirell away spare cash into two envelopes that I have designated for my ATF's (no, I'm not stupid enough to label them with their names. in fact, in the very unlikely event that my wife ever did happen to discover the envelopes, I have a ready made excuse already prepared that she would believe). When I have enough cash squirelled away in a particular girl's envelope, I contact her. Neither of them know about my methods, (unless they're reading this now and remembered my TER handle) and I've never felt that there was a tactful way to bring it up. However, all providers may want to remember that you're in competition with each other. I have often shifted money from one envelope to another due to services received.
Depends.. sometimes we use the term loosely.. someone I have already seen, to my driver when i do outcall,or to a safe call, id say " Hes a regular, ive seen him before "
Ordinarily, Someone who frequents us 3 or more times. A weekly visitor, a monthly visitor..
Hey honey, what TF is this envelop under the carpet in the closet labeled CieraHasFun?
I know, you said you did not label them, but still.
You'd have to gulp real quick and tell her, "Oh that's 4 visits to my ATF... stumble...., stumble, shit, WTF...."

Its why I have everyone label them Heart foundation... Same as CiaraHasFun. Ciara has fun taking your heart away 
Ok.. that was lame. No applause please lmao
When I saw a new provider the other day, I was seriously tempted to label the envelope "Save Oregon's Beavers Fund", but thought better of it at the last minute and left it blank incase she might not find the humor in it.. Anyone else ever write amusing things on the envelopes? Any providers out there ever get annoyed when customers do silly things like that? 
I am still stumped as to why..
And I just hate when they write CIARA on the envelope. Or give me cute cards with Ciara written on them..
Why would you not like cute cards or when they write Ciara on the envelope? This is kind of interesting, since it usually the instructions always give. Other questions below. With a regular, I suppose it is "Show me the money" at some point.
Which begs to question (OT), why do providers actually direct using an "unsealed envelope".
Why envelope at all, why NOT a cute card?
Where's the best place to make the drop? Bathroom, bedroom, front door?
Do you count it in front of client, or after he leaves (too late).
Not looking for ways to rip, just inquiring mind, ya know.
I have to say that over time you forget who you saw one or two times before they faded away, but I have not had that experience often. To base it on percentage is very difficult. I have a handful of regulars that I see weekly, bi weekly, monthly or whenever the come to town they look me up. So If I go on my current client base well that 100%. I dont consider men I have seen 1 or 2 times "clients". But let's I count them all, well it's still over 90% because I am picky. I can tell if a cleint is going to be a regular the first time I meet him. I dont like to take on guys that I will only see 1 time unless we have discussed it before hand. Once and a while depending on the circumstance I will therefore my 10% lag. I only take on new clients if I feel I can devote the time to new ones. The men that come to me are looking for that GFE, want some real attention, email me back and forth kind of girl. I like it that way.
Your statements kind of infers indirectly that if I was only a one time visit, by your gut feeling, I would get less than the true GFE as you say others will get.
This would of course all be unknown to me. Interesting.
I have been doing this for a 18 months and I have 6 guys who have seen me once a month or every other month since I started
I have several others who wait 6 months to call back but that number will increase as I stay in the business
as they try to figure out what you're talking about. Have the other 6 guys who have seen you every month also seen you every other month? WOW! That's quite a record!
You must be one of those who flunked all the verbal math questions in grammar school. Amazing.. how some of you guys can even make a living, let alone afford this hobby.

IT WAS A JOKE! Wannariders post made no sense and my post was a spoof on hers. Sorry you didn't get it. By the way, do you always use an alias when being sarcastic?
I have several guys who started seeing me when I first started 18 months ago and they see me every other month
I have several guys who started seeing me when I first started 18 months ago and they see me every month but they skip xmas and maybe one other month
I have several guys who started seeing me when I first started 18 months ago and they waited 6 months to see me again and they have seen me 3 or 4 x in 18 months.
I also have guys who tell me they come to charleston only around thanksgiving or xmas and they have seen me and they are emailing me to see me again.
I don't like writing extensive posts as I do have to free my time up but wanted to add my two cents
now see if you can find all my spelling and spacing errors
FB is joking,
He alwayz picks on mei two wen eye due knot speel vary weel.
He meens know harm.
she might pass that GED exam yet!
"Tellin em" what ? That he's a pompous ass ? Or that he just made a fool of himself and that being a joke was the only lame exuse he could come up with ?

not an alias as you choose to continue to hide behind. Wannarideher's original post made absolutely no sense and if it did to you, you've found a good match for yourself. Maybe someday you'll grow up, become a man and stop hiding in the wilderness (or was that Appalachia?)
LOL!!
Thank you so much. I look forward to the day when I "grow up and become a real man" just like you... an arrogant pompous little man who needs to put down women on an escort board to boast his pathetic ego. And of course I'm sure freebird49 is your real name. No reviews and newbie who has been posting for less than year. Yep, you're a real upstanding credible fellow, you should be proud of yourself
