Because of personal/family related issues (nothing to do with LE or anything like that). How is the best way to go about it? Thought about picking a new stage name, butthen what becomes of my old reviews? Thought about just caterng to a certain number of regulars/interested parties via email...and thus going really UTR, as I doubt I would advertiseat all I I wen that route. What are your opinions-what should I do? I guess one woul call this semi-retirement, as I'm going back to school to pursue other interests...but, welllllll,l...I'm still "interested" in the biz, meaning that I'm not ready to give it up yet. Suggestions? Thoughts? If I wasn't specific eenough feel free to ask questions. I really value you guys' opinions. Thanks!
My suggestion would be to just start with your regulars and make sure they know you want it to be strictly UTR. No reviews, no dates in public, strictly outcall. Also, you may want to have TER take down your reviews, profile, etc.

If you change your stage name, you only have to contact TER and they will change your review profile to reflect the new name, so that shouldn't be an issue. If you choose to go the UTR route, contact your regulars, let them know you will be UTR and provide them contact info. Hopefully you have established enough of a clientele to be able to sustain an UTR business. Good luck to you in whatever you choose to do.
through TER or if they gave you e-mail. Let them know you won't post and are part time but want to still meet. They most likely will like the exclusiveness of it.
Okay I know a lady that has done just that. She made her a website and had vip section and she only advertises to her vips and when she goes out she advertises on a board she uses faithfully with her reviews up. only once does she run an ad then she emails all others but make sure before you do this that you work faithfully for about mth...and note in your ad this is semi-retirement tour after this you will not be out regularly and then have them sign up for your vip newletter to learn more. Hope this helps.
I am 90% retired and LOVING IT!...........I rarely post anymore......I stay clear of drama....and I am still well connected in the hobby community. Being UTR was by far the best decision I have ever made. It gave me time to settle back into civilian life. While working as a provider I almost lost touch with the fact that I really am able to function in the "real world". As a provider I grew professionally....I am much more open minded. I really embraced accepting and loving other people. Funny thing is, I had to wrap my head around the fact that I cannot work for anyone else ever in my life. I have settled into my hobby related business and girl I LOVE IT!
I can tell you a few things about life as UTR:
Ground 0. Go get a civvie job.....do not quit your civvie job under any circumstances. (this is not just for UTR girls...its for anyone in the adult entertainment industry)...why? bc we make a lot of money..and most of us carelessly blow every dime we make ON STUPID SHIT!! shoes, purses and clothes have no appreciative value......somehow ladies seem to think we can be providers until we draw our last breath. I am 44 years old and, I am still working...BUT in reality we cannot do this forever and we will need to establish a retirement fund. Go get yourself a regular job.
1. Count on TER not removing your reviews unless you are not advertising anywhere on the net.
2. If you don't have to, don't change your name....keep it.....you have worked hard to maintain a great rep (I hope) and it is easier for guys to respect a girl going UTR than it is for us to "retire" every 3 months...then surface again as someone else.
3. Go to meet and greets when/if you can...it will keep your name out there to a limited amount of people, but UTR means you will see clients when you want and see who you want to see.
4. Make sure you have very strong ethical relationships with your provider friends who are not UTR....I would estimate almost half of my clients come from other girls sending me clients and when I can I always return the favor.
5. Lock up your site....you would be shocked by how many potential clients are intrigued by the mystique of UTR girls.
6. UTR means you will attract a different type of client, it may be a guy who has 300 reviews under his belt, but it is a different chemistry. I find my clients want a connection versus just an appointment.
7. Your business may drop for a while, but remember your advertisement is mainly word of mouth....nothing can replace a solid reputation that is so well earned PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU.
8. Tour....touring is a weird beast when you are UTR....if you don't put ads up.....you will end up broke or worse...if you put ads up...your profile here will go back up....again it is that word of mouth advertising and your reputation...HAS TO BE SOLID.
9. If you are solid in your business...you will get a VERY loyal client base........since you will have a civvie job to take care of your basic needs....you can change the way you charge.....instead of blowing the money you may make via an overnight....take that fee to the bank and fund a Roth IRA.
10. Do not announce a retirement....SKIP IT...it's tacky.........just don't do it. In almost every announcement of a girl retiring she comes back.....either as herself or under a new name. Men are not stupid...they know its the same girl...and being wishy washy will effect your bottom line.
11. Please do not go on a "GoodBye Tour" you and I are not Janet Jackson....or some other Hollywood celebrity.....SERIOUSLY a Good Bye Tour?...again ITS EXTREMELY TACKY...and most of the time ladies go on a "GoodBye Tour" and never quite GO AWAY.
12. If you make the decision to semi- retire or retire, it is a process...just like establishing yourself was a process....stepping away is a process. If you do it too fast you will be right back here.
Good Luck and if you need to talk about it more feel free to contact me.
I'm glad I read A's post before trying to come up with some advice of my own. She seems to have nailed it IMHO.
Best wishes on your new path.

If your reason is personal/family then you need to change your name just to make sure they dont find out if your reviews are back online..hard for a very well known provider to go UTR I am sure you will have 100+ Reviews and you must have worked very hard like a construction worker to get to that stage..
Remember UTR ladies dont get any reviews so you just need to spread the word that you are back and I am sure your follower will find you. Ask TER to get rid of your old reviews just in case one of your Loyal follower act like an A**H*** and submit a review for you or even threaten you that he will write a review if you dont do what he wants you to do...and that will put you in a very ugly situation..
So first thing ask TER to get rid of your reviews and then go UTR and see who you want to see and I am sure your next of kins will never know...
I love UTR ladies since no way to prove anything...I hope I am one of your Regular since we lost many great providers in last 12 months...
