So you know how we get emails from cities we rarely if ever visit:

My few years in the business has shown me that Chicago is more short-notice and last minute with regard to this business.  Don't take this the wrong way  as some guys do Pre-book but most tend to feel the mood strike and start dialing or reaching out to their Fav's. Most Chicago-ans are time poor and super busy.  I always hear, I had some time open up for me are you available in an hour?

Life is a risk baby

Look, I've been doing this a fair while. I live in Australia and I tour all around there, sometimes to new cities. I've also nearly completed a three month tour to the USA, a country I've never worked in before and which took some serious effort to research, get signed up and verified on your numerous sites, find out where to spend advertising monies, book flights, decide where to go etc etc. I don't want a badge for this I'm just making the point that this is not a book months in advance industry, we're not accountants!!
I took a punt on just about everywhere I went here. Some didn't pay off (LA and New York) and they were the most expensive hotels and advertising but some places have more than paid off and Chicago is one of them. I didn't have a single prebooking  here the first time I came in April, but I got good bookings from sites I can't name P.... And not E...
I'm glad I came. Book a cheap hotel on Priceline.com and just come.
Fortune favours the bold!!

Well that's your loss ladies - I had $2000 worth of last minute bookings yesterday because IM HERE.  
Guys can't always plan ahead for horny get over it.  
If you come to Australia to work EVERY booking is on the day and you get lots so maybe you need to be more flexible. I thought that's why women worked in this business?

If you are able to book day of without worry, than you should.
In the days when agencies ruled Chicago, it was a must to be ready and willing every moment.
But then again, those were regulars...
Now with the independent structure, I'm afraid that due diligence is a modern must.

I travel often and sometimes post an ad for the fuck of it
But, if visiting Chicago is not on your "to-do" list and you haven't other reasons to come...then you probably are right to cancel.
The trouble is a lot of tours have cancelled lately which makes gentlemen nervous about pre-booking visitors.
We've always been known for having a healthy hobby here...that also means that more women have moved and travel here often.
What is it called?  Entry and exit economics?  How fitting

I am planning on visiting soon and plan to pre-book in advance and hopefully it all goes well during my visit.  

I still verify clients so the personal risks are minimal - that wasn't the kind of risk I was talking about Tiffany - I've been in this industry for 13 years since I was 22 so I'm not green or naive  - I meant the risk of trying new places and launching yourself somewhere with no prebookings. It's relatively pain free and in my experience clients I've seen here are 5 times more polite, respectful and great to deal with than most Aussie guys
 

Let me just say that I would love to accommodate touring ladies and pre-book.  Unfortunately, I have no idea what I will be doing a week or two from now.  I have to make plans just a day ahead because long-term it doesn't work out.

Some people ask for advice and then have a hard time taking it?
I'm not one of those people. Thank you to each lady that took time to answer, all of it is appreciated and noted.

This is mostly from my own observations and deduction, but A lot of women will post an ad saying they're coming, then decide whether or not to actually come based on the response they get from their ads. If they don't get enough of a response to make it worthwhile, they just follow up the ad saying their trip is canceled. Some guys complain about that but I don't have any problem with it.

Thinking though a bit ahead of the game...I'm never really available on a dime.
My thoughts are that anyone thinking with their better head would be wondering why I'm available now and if whether I'm therefore relaxed in my screening...??
At least, that's what I wonder.
Some wonder afterwards why and I try not to do that.  Ever.

No wonder you're doing so well here! You have a great attitude and look pretty damn good too. "Hell, I'll just show up and they'll cum"... and apparently we are

It's freaked me out in the past. I swear, from the second you start advertising your visit until you've already checked into your incall, it'll be total crickets. Then out of nowhere, they come out of the woodwork and you'll be struggling just to keep up with the emails. It's nerve-wracking for sure (especially for those of us who are based in cities where pre-booking WAY in advance is the norm), but after a couple of visits you'll get into the groove. Chicago guys may be last minute bookers, but they kick incomprehensible amounts of ass as clients. Give it another shot sometime. It just takes a little leap of faith and some frugal planning.  

Chicago has major traffic issues (thanks Josephine for understanding this). So we book based on which of the sub-cities you're staying in. Downtown is incomprehensible for suburbanites and pretty much vice versa for the city dwellers. So if you're not clear exactly what part of this huge metro area you're staying or if you're not visiting multiple sub-cities, it can be difficult for us to book. Many of us are unwilling to drive for hours in traffic jams so if you stay in only one location, you're limiting yourself considerably.

Completely agree with this!!! I am a city dweller and even the most beautiful lady providing incall in the west or northwest burbs ain't gonna get me heading out there. Round trip could take me four+ hours!  

I appreciate that feedback. While I don't like to limit myself, I like suburban tours even less.  

I'm one of those carless city dwellers, so it's Mag Mile or Gold Coast only for me.  If I don't know for certain that a lady is hosting in downtown or reasonably close, I can't book.  And yes, of course, I can email and ask.

Does Corrine require a deposit prior to visiting?

I respond that I am available to visit for overnight meetings with a deposit to cover my airfare and hotel while I am there, and I have never heard back from anyone.    
   
 But the rest of the east coast has no issue with this...I plan to visit NYC next weekend and have enjoyed other visits from Florida up to DC thus far.  Forget the last-minute stuff...some of us have lives to live.    
   
 

True, but the deep fried town namesake is to die for....  ;-P

He's a smart dude, and recently corrected me for not thinking about the entire metro area

This is the third time I've visited. Typically, I only visit when I have someone reach out to me and ask for an appointment or they visit me in Detroit and convince me to come. I almost exclusively pre-book, sometimes up to a month in advance in my home state. So coming to Chicago is always a tense endeavor.

Thinking with their better head I like it

It's a fair comment Tiffany. It's easy with some guys to do screening relatively quickly thanks to memberships on certain unnameable sites but if I can't verify quickly I definitely don't see.

Hahaha thanks for the kind comments. I was born in England originally but the Aussie feistiness has definitely rubbed off
I look forward to making your acquaintance sometime Mr Pirate!!

I've never heard of you before this post. I didn't happen to see your announcement that you were touring, but holy crap...If YOU can't garner interest, with those photos, hell is getting chilly. Put me on your list when you do visit - I'd be happy to welcome you. Crickets? Seriously? how?

It takes time to build-up a solid clientele in any city. Some cities you'll find suit you better than others on a variety of fronts for a variety of reasons. If you have a couple of out-of-town clients from the same city, one method is to reach out to those clients from that city along with advertising in advance in that city. You'll have a chance of having both new and old friends, some security along with room to grow. There is always risk, and sometimes it might take 3 trips before knowing whether a city suits you or doesn't. Every city has it's own character and way of doing things. Best of luck to you. Flexibility and ability to travel are definitely some of the perks...
