I mean additional discounts, extra things you don't do for regular customers.

And when I say regular I mean someone who comes regular for about a year or more.  

Use an alias..... but please respond.

If the "regular" has been regular for a year or more, there's more than likely a mutual exchange of "specials" that mocks any kind of accounting.  If I give her jewelry for her birthday, help her with $ during a slow time, and write a letter to her landlord to quiet down the college guys upstairs, and then she comes on a business trip with me and doesn't watch the clock, who's to say which one of us has given the other "specials"?  Put another way, if the lady matters enough to see her for that length of time, then something's amiss if the hobbyist is counting beans.  This is not to say that either side abandons the basic monetary transaction -- they don't.  But it can get fuzzed up.

Well I know someone ou see once or twice doesn't rate for it, but someone who has visited close to 10 times in a year would normally get something extra Joe average didn't is what I mean.

Sort of a good customer incentive.  Particularly if you have a close relationship with them.

I know what some providers have done for others, I know what some have done for me.  I know what one had offered me if I made her my regular. (best offer of them all).

Thats why I said Aliases were fine, So you could be frank with the answers. For those afraid to say such with their identity known.


My ATF was upset I saw other providers, yet she has offered me nothing extra for all the visits I have made. Still love her, think she is great but so many have offered me extras it makes me feel slighted she never offered to do the same.  Remember this is about 10 visits in last year. Not 2 or 3.

My rates are already discounted, but for those wanting to visit for only one hour, the first time is full fare and then after it is discounted.

I find it hard to believe that you are not VERY flexible in the sack.

I have bought jazz CDs for long-term clients of mine, candy, sports magazines, Beanie bears, wine, champagne and other items (especially during their birthday or Christmas). I don't like making it a habit on a daily business. That would get costly. However, those clients/friends that I have become close to and spend a lot of time with me find that I am very generous and, to show it, I often bring them tokens of my appreciation. I've even given a few one-hour sessions for free for birthdays.

You can be certain he gets treated differently than someone I have just met.  I always make sure I have his favorite scotch and mixer ready and waiting and I am inclined to go over 2 hours and sometimes 3  for the price of 1 but when you look at the consistancy of this person I would be a fool to treat him any other way. If you then take into consideration that I adore his company it is a total win win.

On the return trip from a Hawaii vacation that I had taken her on.  It was a very sweet gesture on her part.  She was able to use FF miles to upgrade her own ticket back, and popped for something like $400 in cash to upgrade MY ticket as well.  Of course, I had just spent several thousand dollars on her for the trip to Maui we went on, and this was less than 10% of the cash I had just given her for joining me on my vacation.  It was also somewhat less than I normally spent on a single dinner date with her, but I was truly touched by the thoughtfulness that she showed in doing it.  I can also assure you that she made it back several times over in future meetings with me, so it was as smart as it was nice on her part.
