Too risky, especially in the US, to start as an indie with zero experience/reviews/screening knowledge. It takes street smartness, strength of character, business acumen, flexibility, determination, sense of humour etc etc on top of brains and looks to last in this industry. Many start and then disappear within weeks.
An agency gives a girl chance, in a safe environment, to see if she's got what it takes.

I have a friend that might be interested in becoming a provider, she is oddly pretty, tall and busty. I would like to let her know what kind of options she might have out there, but I am most concerned about her safety as she is a friend. So if any providers might be able to help me let her know, please pm me

Have her do some research before getting into this industry.Make sure she learns how to screen.Screening is a necessity if she wants to stay safe.Make sure this is something she really wants to do.Have her take some nice photos.Post an ad,and phone will start ringing in no time.Goodluck

I think many of us started that way including myself.  Secretly yours is a great one and they take less then the normal 50/50.  Would give her access to a whole established clientele with the agency(agency guys tend to love the new girls), as well that agency would handle all of her screening and advertising till she could figure out how to, give her a chance to get a few reviews before she goes indie.  IMO, starting as an indie right now without an actual provider mentor is dangerous and would most likely lead to a bust because of improper screening.  I used to mentor but not anymore(I don't have the patience or time) so I can't be of more help.  Wishing you and her the best.

I hope she can handle it.  Make sure she knows that it is mentally very stressing if you are not already kinda slutty.  Trying to break down that good girl image that most are brow beaten into since we were little girls can be tough and as I said very mentally taxing.  If she has boundaries, like she only wants to do massage make sure she is always very clear and know that there will always be boundary pushers so don't take it personally.
