I am appalled at the behavior of some providers.
When you receive those emails remind them that your advertisements aren't for them- your advertisements are for consumers.

If you want to include Greek or any other "premium" service in an inclusive rate, that is your choice and you shouldn't second guess yourself.

Your rates and services do not affect other providers in any capacity, contrary to what some would tell you.

Best,
Ally

What is right for you, do not worry about others.

Just so you know ...I'm BEHIND you on this.



Thank you

I think it should always be all inclusive.  Nothing kills the mood more than negotiating ad ons.  Either offer everything for one price, or drop the extra services all together.

I LOVE greek, but I like it when it flows naturally during a session.  I hate trying to go there only to be told to cough up more dough.

I think that you can go either way as long as all is known upfront before the appointment is made.  A local agency does this routinely for those that offer Greek -- seems to work fine.

While I don't really consider charging extra for Greek as an up-sell I would certainly say that you have the right to charge whatever you like for the services that you offer.

No provider has the right to tell you what you should be doing with your time and your body any more than any client does.

I agree with Ally,i myself as a contractor do not call another contractor and complain about about his or my rates.Its a competitive bussiness in all industries.

You should include what you want to include in your services.  I recall a conversation I had with another lady who used to upcharge for greek, and she stopped doing that.  When I asked why, she simply said she really enjoyed it, and no one was doing it because it was extra.

So again, include what you want to include, and do what you enjoy.

Cheers

I'd say don't sweat what other providers tell you.  If you want to and enjoy offering Greek, then by all means include it in your rate.  You also have every right to ask for compensation for providing a service such as greek. I think people that are really into it wouldn't mind paying and extra $30-$40 for that option.  Either way, it's completely up to you.

Your approach is the gracious one, although I'd like to think that some of your fellas are gracious also.  By that, I mean tipping.

Re: Do you prefer rates to be all inclusive? My schedule

If you provide greek you should let us guys know.  I have no problem with a provider quoting a higher price for greek services.  You see it all the time. On the other hand there are several girls that offer greek for the single price that they quote.  They don't advertise their rate as "greek included".  That would look stupid and a provider always has to have the discretion of turning down a guy with a horse dick.  Many providers will tell you that they love greek.  It is no bull, I can name several.  If they are faking they sure have been fooling me.  A TER review usually tells you a lot about whether greek was offered and if any extra fee was required.
