I hope to see one of your posts one day about last minute tickets to an event. I'd LOVE to go to a few.

I really appreciate you trying this "experiment" and sharing your experience with us.  Kudos for being inventive and different.  
   
 I also appreciate the comments from the girls about how they feel on the matter.  I'm always interested in what ladies have to say about us gents' tact.  Or lack of it.  Lol.  
   
 I understand the different philosophies and personal views on the matter...  From a guy/client/customer perspective I've been able to get plane, theater, hotel, and cruise tickets economically and at the last minute when and if they are underbooked - so why not a more personal commodity?  Versus the girls' natural behavior of wanting to be pursued for their individual charms and beauty.  Or at the very least not wanting to feel like they are being plucked out of the bargain bin.  :-)  
   
 This hobby is an interesting intersection of pleasure meets business isn't it?  
   
 For me, I have a favorite or two that are highly reliable (part of the reason they are "favorites") that I usually schedule well in advance with.  I have never had much luck with day of cancellations/reschedules from an indy perspective, so my backup plan is to have an agency number handy.  To me they excel in handling last minute requests.  I think that is where they shine (and are always good for contingencies).  It sounds like you found that out from your original post (and reading your review).    
   
 Best of luck to you in the future.  You often don't know whether something will work or not until you try it, so good on you for trying it out.

So, with all the attention about the ladies saying, "Oh yes, I would love to know if a guy is available, etc etc etc....well here is the result! :

Three ladies reached out. That's it.  

I appreciate the three that did and I'll be in touch with them soon about making a date, but overall, highly disappointed in the lack of responses.  

Not mad at anybody, but really did think a higher response would have been given. Btw, all the responses were the first day...none on the second.  

So guys, guess you are going to have to put yourselves out there if you want to spend some time with some ladies.

Oh, and shout out to Gold Club. Wait till you read the review of the new girl :)

1. Why were you expecting a higher response rate?
2. What do you think went wrong to cause the disappointing response rate?

(3 doesn't sound too bad to me - how many were you expecting?)

That's fair...higher response rate based on the number of ladies who commented on Matt F's post and said how great of an idea that he made.
I think b/c women ultimately want to be chased and not put themselves out there and then get rejected...or feel like they aren't good enough and so "nobody" responds b/c they feel they are all already being outdone by one another.  
I would say at least 5-10 min

I think 3 is a great result. Also not trying to be a smart ass or a dickhead but isn't the whole hobby geared to work the way it has been for centuries?  The girls advertise, the guys search and find and everyone is happy.  

To have THREE girls reach out to you, I'd be ecstatic. They have DOZENS of guys EVERYDAY bombard them with texts, emails, calls, and such. They're literally spend My hours respOn ding to all or most requests. Of those, only a few appts ever work out.  Plus, they have to spend the necessary time (hours) getting themselves ready to present the best 'product' for their appts.  

I would consider my my lucky stars that THREE did reach out to you. I hope you saw at least one of them.

I can see it that as well. Good perspective on that.

Did you read my last sentence and what I said about the three ladies as well?

You do know that what you did was new and people aren't really looking for this yet. The fact that you got 3... maybe you weren't their type. How many ads do you scroll past on a daily... come on dude. sounds like you wanted to post a male ad and be bombarded with women wanting to come see you... Stop it!

This isn't really anything new, I mean, isn't this just another name for an ISO post? Sometimes they work, sometimes, not so much. One reason being, most ladies aren't too fond of the "pick me!" approach. We feel special when you contact us directly. I know this is P4P, but it's human nature for men to pursue and women to be pursued. Just my two cents.

But when I was thinking last minute, and I made that post with those ideas in mind............the idea of a "guy ad" type post was interesting to me because it might lead to some responses from women you werent familiar with or had never thought of, and it could lead to a chance and fun encounter.  

I've had some of those on the TER board, and I can't wait till I have my next one (yes, inspired from that post!)

I think 3 responses is pretty good, and I don't think it puts a woman out there that much to say "hi i'm available" and begin a dialogue.

Happy Hobbying everyone
