So, every front desk clerk of every hotel is going to be informed of Eros and trained on how to recognize the girls who advertise there. It'll probably lead to an increase in your business from hotel clerks! I can just imagine it now, hotel employees at work searching Eros, then TER, explaining to the boss "hey, I was just doing research, seeing if any of these girls have checked in lately." But secretly they'll hoping you did check in so they can do a session with you right when they get off work before going home. If another employee sees them going into/out of your room, they can always say they were just checking to see if you had enough towels.
My suggestion, keep showing your face, practice responsilbe screening, and you'll be O.K.
So all of these escorts have been ruining my little gold mine in the beautiful surburb of King of Prussia PA where the average per capita income is 154% of the national average. It is all abouut the white picket fence and the private schools. I have been going there since '99, but in the past few years, the place has been over-run with traveling girls right now there are only 44, but there have been over 100 and there are only 80 total hotels in the area. They have brought the rates down and LE out.
The fact: They arrested at least 4 girls.
The rumors: They are using local business to pass screening. (Yeah, heard that before. Can work around it.)
They have several established escorts that are giving out references for whatever reason. (OK, so I'll just shorten my trip and only see regulars.)
They alerted the management of all the hotels in the area about Eros (mentioned in the newspaper article) and they are instructed to watch for us and call if we show up. (Ok, that could be a probblem. Brining back memories of NY Feb 2000 with LE banging on my door repeatedly claiming to be maintenance wanting to fix various things that weren't broken. I knew for sure that it was LE when my travel partner, Chrissy Tyler was arrested.)
The rumors could be true, they could be started by other girls/acencies to scare girls away or the ould be started by LE to scare girls away. Who knows!
So.....since the whole 'alert the hotel' thing seems to be becoming more of a problem all over the country, I have had several people telling me to remove my face from the internet. At first I laughed at the idea of opening up Photoshop and whacking my head off. But now I am wondering if it wouldn't be best in the long run. I do like to tour.
My question is, what is your opinion about me removing my face after all of these years. Is it a stupid waste of time that will hurt my business? Or is it a smart move that will save me from problems down the road?
you could tour other parts of the country ---- like kansas city mo.
The position of Vegas Board Smart-ass is already filled.

If you want me to tour Kansas, I don't know......not a big fan of the mid-west......
nope---not a smart ass---just offering a suggestion for a new tour site----actually overland park ks is a very nice suburb of kansas city mo---i know that if you came into our area i would give you a call
Because I travel frequently with clients and have accompanied them to everything from a small corporate dinners to large family weddings maintaining a level of anonymity and discretion is essential. Just as most clients don’t disclose their occasional proclivity to hire a personal companion one has to assume that at least a few of their friends/coworkers/bosses have also come across Eros or TER so having my face out there is just not an option for me. The last thing I would want (or my client would want) is to be recognized in public as “that girl from the internet” and believe me it happens as I quite often pass local providers that I recognize from their websites walking through a casino.
Like you Miss Logan, my face is one of my best assets and I do think a client has a right to see what the provider looks like prior to booking; so I offer to send my pictures over email and clients are so surprised that I wouldn’t capitalize on my appearance more. Personally, I have never felt the lack of pictures on my site deters client bookings.
I think it is actually beneficial because in reviewing the web stats and “click tendencies” for my site and my girlfriend's sites we see that once they pass the welcome screen most clients click on the “Gallery” page when they first arrive at a provider’s website. Based on what they see they have an instantaneous reaction, they either close the website if he doesn’t like her appearance or if the pictures peak his interest he will continue on to the “About Me” or “Donation” pages.
On my site you’re somewhat forced to learn about me via the text there and then if they find my personality intriguing they will send an email request for pictures, or sometimes the personality is enough and they will request an appointment never having seen a picture.
So that’s my personal experience with not having photos, and it’s a personal choice that happens to work well here in Vegas. As far as how it would go over in other cities I can’t really predict but I think if things are really heating up with LE out there then maybe a trial month with your pics down will help you decide if it is a feasible long term solution.
Stay safe sweetie! We missed you last night at Go Karts!

I have sometimes wished that my face wasn't on the internet. I know that some other girls like Kit and Megan do very well with out showing their faces. I told Eros to blur out my face and I have booked a hotel outside of Montgomery County. I think that should be enough to make myself and my clients feel comfortable.

The hotel that I normally stay at is very small and only has 1 desk clerk at a time, and usually female, even in the middle of the night. They always seem to remember my name and room number. I know the maintenance guy remembers me. I used to be on a first name basis with the manager, but he transfered. Plus, it is one of the hotels where one of the girls got arrested so they are probably all into playing the 'spot the hooker' game right now. I wish that I knew which other hotels were involved. One of the problems is that not very many single females check in. It seems in the winter I am surrounded by men and in the summer I'm surrounded by families. The fact that they are looking for a single female with 40DDD boobs checking in can really narrow down their search quickly. LOL!
I'll probably try going back next year. Probably find a different hotel. I really do like that area. I feel very at home there. In '03 I spent an entire month there.
really at risk then chop chop ... I do feel it will hurt your business .... so with that in mind maybe do what many are doing and send out pics with heads after you verify ..... MHO
Thanks for the response.
Well it probably wouldn't hurt my business as much as getting a breast reduction! LOL!
I am going to take the easy way and just leave my web site. They will have to actually click through to my web site to see my face.
...we're not the ones putting ourselves at LE risk by being "out there" or making the living at it. Do what you think is best for you. Sure, cropping your face will no doubt hurt a little..so will being cited by LE. Also, the sure numbers you mentioned will cut in on business, so use your regulars more...see if you can get them to extend dates by an hour or two with a special. That way you pick up extra $time$ without all the screening and so forth that goes along with new clients. But with everything, do what is most comfortable with you...not us. ![]()
Well in all the years I had my face all over the net
I am out in public a lot with clients.
Only once in an airport in Florida did someone actually come up to me and ask if I was CindySpice or Sarah Jessica Parker......... and that was because he literally just got off the net, and still he wasn't sure.
Out in public I never felt someone looking and saying - oh there goes that hooker CindySpice.
Vice never pulled me aside and said- oh I have seen your face on Eros your under arrest.( they can't do that)
I am with InspectorMorse hotel staff is not going on Eros to check out and look out for ladies.
Even hotels that I am so called 86'd from can't keep track.........and I have a face to remember, ok maybe more hair and boobs to remember LOL LOL LOL
Yes some ladies don't show their faces, but do send private photos. I am sure if they didn't send those photos they wouldn't be as busy.
When I started I blocked my face,as soon as I didn't,I got much more business.
Of course YMMV ,different things work for different ladies.
and of course I can always say someone stole my photos........what ??? they are using my photos for an escort ad ?? I am outraged!!! get my lawyer on the phone. ![]()
ROFL, Cindy. There are enough stolen photos out there that people might believe you. ![]()
I'm convinced LE likes to bust providers because it's fun and safe. Dopers pull guns. Why not try NE Philly. There are hotels at the RTE 1 exit of the turnpike and nearby Bucks County has a high per capita income too. More than Montgomery county if you discount Levittown. Who knows, you might even get a visit from me, I hate KoP and Roxy and Megan did speak highly of you.
