What is the main thing you look for when doing your research on a provider, before you decide to book her?
Is it her pictures?
The wording on her ad?
Her Website?
Her reviews?
What is the #1 deciding factor?
Just curious....
Andrea
Sometimes you see a photo and look up the reviews. Sometimes you search performance criteria and check out the photos. Ads and websites mean nothing to me except as a forum for providing accurate photos and necessary information. Really couldn't care less if a girl likes Godiva chocolate, starry nights and John Mayer...and I consider mysef to be just about as romantic a putz as there is in this hobby ![]()
Well, like a book, picture first, (and hopefully they catch the real her, natural and not an studio/air brush job) all of us are attracted to a certain type, but that's just a small portion of it. Through reviews, her website, one tries to get a sense if she genuine, and not a rip-off, or an upselling jaded-pro. Is she GFE, or cold, and by-the-numbers.
Like the classic cliche, that johns just like to someone to talk to, the sex is half of it sometimes, actually I would like to enjoy the company and the conversation. If not, I'd beat off, and save myself 500.
Pictures are great for that first blush "Ooh!" but they mean nothing without reviews. I rarely take a chance on a provider that doesn't have reviews.
Also, I like to see the stats in the ad (age, height, etc.)
All the other stuff I usually just scan over.
Thanks!
Andrea,
The first thing I do is look at the pictures. If her face is showing in the pics and I find myself attracted to her face, then the next step is I check her TER profile. If her pictures are real as well has her breasts, I read a few reviews to see if her clients like her. If I don't find any deal-breakers in those reviews and her price isn't something out of Eliot Spitzer's black book, I call her and try to arrange a fun time.
Of course, when I think a provider isn't my type doesn't say anything negative about her. We don't get to choose what we like, to the contrary, we are slaves to it.
My instinct and how it crack up on my homework, which include, in scramble form:
Statistical analyis of her numbers based on the data I gather from her reviews;
A content analysis of her reviews - what she does, how she does, and the type of personality emerge from the review;
The feedback and exchange of idea with my TER buddy or close 'third party' that can give me the hint on something that can lead me to discover a side (good, bad, so so) about a certain provider;
The scrutiny of her gallery or pictures to see the "WOW" factor that drive my imagination;
The structure of her website to see what her style is, what persona lies behind the words, and which character it is submerged into it;
The way she communicate with me to see her professionalism, her overall attitude, her approach to her business and her relationship with her potential clientele.
The way my instinct shape my homework is the real deciding factor for me...its a dynamic process that lead me to decide for or against.
Nobel Prize 2002 in Economics Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky demonstrated that the people's ways of making decisions are full of idiosyncrasies. We are not completely rational when making decision, but 'quasi rational' and that our processes are full of bias, miscalculation, errors and mistake. We do not complete process all information, and we usually guess based on probabilistic judgements, with their weight of unavoidable doses of uncertainty. This is a field full of risk, so her make euristically-oriented type of decision, and and such there can't be a single deciding factor.
the reviews are what seal the deal. If it was just the pics. CL would serve just fine.
BTW, you have some very nice talent...
hopefully with face shots - but either way, then I proceed to their web site. In a perfect world, their web site clearly indicates they are TER reviewed (usually with a link or a tab) - and I check their reviews and services.
If the reviews indicate a girl I would click with and her services line up with what I want, that's usually enough to make the booking call.
Occasionally as others have mentioned, I will use back channel references if she only has a small number of reviews.
To some hobbiests the menu is equally important as the pictures, the reviews and the rating.
Some girls offer CBJ, some BBBJ. Some girls offer CIM, COF, greek, etc., some don't.
Generally, the wider the menu, the wider the hobbiest base that provider can get.
I can't speak for other hobbiests, but if there are some things that are not on the menu, regardless how attractive the girl is or if she has great reviews, I would simply look for another provider.
Ads are like a politician's teleprompter driven talk. They serve to narrow the field. Pictures are important . However, as others have noted, reviews are critical.
Not just any reviews but a good check is to see how the reviewer has reviewed other women who have received high and low ratings. Also, does the reviewer have any requirement that is not relevant to my interests.
Finally, I put a lot into the quality of the response on the phone or via email.
If I was the Emperor of TER I would provide for searches across multiple ethnic options.
Pictures and then reviews from reputable reviewers.
First, I check the pics. Pics have to grab my attention.
Second, I chec the website, for rates and info.
Third is reviews.
I tend to go on the pics, first impression, you see.
Good question.
For me, I guess there are a lot of contributing factors. Starts with the pic and then hopefully the ad was written by the lady in question and gives a little hint to her personality. Of course consistent good reviews are always a plus, and I always look to see if a girl provides multiple pops because that is usually an indication for me of getting my money's worth.
Pictures get my attention, reviews confirm she will live up to my expectations. I'm not so much concerned the pictures are of the lady - but they had better be a true representation.
My preference is full GFE, and that would come out in reviews, preferably multiple reviews with high marks.
1. What immediately attracts me is her pics.
2. Pricing
3. Availability (incall/outcall, timeframes)
4. Reviews (I try to contact the reviewers to get the real "review", LOL).
A good simple website that is well designed is always a plus.
Lastly, if I am meeting a lady that I have never seen, a quick phone conversation prior to the appt is a must with me. It isn't long, no longer than 10 minutes or so. Just gives me an idea about what to expect.
Bond
A quick phone is a must I AGREE 100 PERCENT ON THAT .Theres a girl Gracie id like to see but she wants your all your info and address where you live and she will not call you not even to tell you shes on her way .Do these girls understand that we would like to know how they talk as well as how they look .You can find a lot out on a few minute conversation .Sometimes i wonder if some of these girls think that we dont have a life ,
I am email only and I do not need address or your tips how should I conduct my biz
This is the negative corollary to your question with all of the above being given.
I don't like Web Sites that have Background Music, especially Rap, in which I have to search for the obscure little speaker icon to turn it off with.
I don't like Web Sites that look like they cost tens of thousands of dollars to produce (you know the kind) which is a dead give-away that 1) the Lady is Full of Herself and thinks more of Herself than I ever could or 2) That I'm not going to be able to afford her from the get-go. Elegant can be Simple and Inexpensive.
Don't make me sign in and give you my eMail address so you can Spam me in the future as some high priced, 'educated & exclusive' local talent does.
I don't like Web Sites wherein the Provider actually posts her 'Gift List' What a Crock. What a frikkin' sense of entitlement these broads have...
I don't like Provider Web Sites that charge to view Pictures...give me a break!
Don't show any pictures that are not 100% Accurate and Current and none of this 'approximates what I look like' crap, I'm just saying.
Finally, please keep it simple, direct and to the point. Please use Spell Check and review for Context and Grammar.
I'm using Camille of Boston as an example of what works for me. She markets herself with savvy and flair, and no, I'm not schilling for her unless it's Curt Schilling, given that they both hail(ed) from Bean Town at one time or another. If I have one complaint, it's that Camille's site may use Flash.
I rest my case.

I like to read all the reviews get a general idea of what to expect. Some reviewers seem to underate some providers and of course some overrate. The pictures are important to me if they turn me on I am more likely to make an appointment. I also prefer certain types so the pictures can be key. The Website can be useful the more informaton the better. The wording in ads are just that words to entice clients. I really don't give ads much consideration
As with anything, people look for different things mostly. There is no way to determine number 1 factor really.
Things that could be important to many:
Body Stats (breast size, weight, etc)
Appearance (hair, eyes, skin tone, etc)
Race/Ethnicity
Performance (gfe, pse, fbsm, etc)
Services provided (bbbj, cim, daty, dfk, etc)
Location
Reviews
Rates
Screening process
All these play a part and each guy IMO may look for different things and even change these choices on different days.
As far as marketing girls within a website goes (I have built an escort site before and I own a web development company) I personally suggest a good search system as most sites lack the necessary filters to do so. Being able to choose a range for height, age and other specs, allowing users to easily filter out girls that don't meet their criteria. Take a look at any matching site like okcupid.com, match.com or other sites that allow searching via filters and you will understand what I mean. Craigslist type search via drill-down is really old-school. Being able to see everything at a glance is important, and drilling down through pages of info should not be necessary.
Just my two cents.
I appreciate the feedback. The reason for this question, was to find out if there are better ways for us to advertise our girlfriends.
For the most part, the only thing we basically don't add to their ads is their stats. So we'll work on adding that this week. Although ALL of their stats are located on their profiles within our company website.
Thank you for all of the compliments. Our girlfriends are all wonderful, and yes very beautiful.
I believe there was only one negative comment from one gent. And in response to him...
The only comment you made that I really didn't agree with, was the wish list comment. Just because you don't think these wonderful, beautiful and intelligent woman don't deserve to be wined and dined, doesn't mean another gent does as well. Most gents, love to give little trinkets. Given, some of the wish list objects are a little crazy (cars, jewelry, etc)... simple things like flowers, candy and perfume turn a girls world upside down.
Most gentlemen seem to forget the wonderful butterflies a lady will get just simply from receiving flowers. Plus the astonished look on her face is always a priceless factor for any gent going into an appointment.
Though does count. ![]()
So you basically used this group as an uncompensated focus group as part of your marketing plan, I truly believe those who offered the most helpful consulting deserve some sort of an honorarium, such as "Buy One, Get One Free" (hours or provider).The Actual cost of two or three awards is markedly cheaper than what any marketing firm would have charged you. Until those honoraria are anounced, I suggest the members of the Forum withhold OUR dollars!

I think anyone reading LeVip's 1st question pretty much knew why they were asking in the 1st place and chose to participate willing to hopefully make ads more relevant for us.
For me,ultimately, it's the reviews. But, the first thing that catches my attention is the photos. That's a no brainer for most of us.
If she charges too much, that's going to be a deal breaker for me, even if she's attractive and has great reviews. What I'll do often is from her ad, I'll go to her website (if she has one) and click on rates first. If it's more than I want to donate, it's over for me.
I am probably very wrong in this regard, but I find it hard to donate higher fees to a provider who is not a porn star. I recently dropped $650 on a pornstar that I had wanted to see for years. They have a level of fame, that to me justifies a higher rate.
A courtesan may be absolutely incredible in every single way, but I can't bring myself to drop $500 or $1000 on someone who is not "famous". That's just me.
Pictures and reviews like everyone said. Those two together.
I would LOVE to always see one or two "candid" shots (cellphone etc) to go along with the carefully lit and photoshopped pro shots.
I also always love it when the accurate body stats are given (including whether or not the body parts are natural or post-surgical).
There are so many beautiful girls in the $3xx range, it doesn't make any sense to me to go much higher, so I just click away when I see anything north of 4xx.
Finally, if there's not a face shot, I'm way less likely to take a risk.
It's probably a bit different for each of us, but the one thing that seems to ring true in the reviews, and makes us tick faster, is when our "date" let's us know she is enjoying herself, during the event(s), whether true or not. We love to feel that the feeling and excitement is taking place for both You and I.
Thus, the big emphasis on GFE.... wonder how you and I would do together?
Picture first, then reviews.
Is it her pictures?
The wording on her ad?
Her Website?
Her reviews?
What is the #1 deciding factor?

I don't do references.
I'm not arguing about whether or not a provider asks for them. Any provider can require any type of screening she wants.
But I prefer not to do it. It's no one's business who else I've seen.
Furthermore, it seems to me that an unfair burden is placed on the providers who don't require references. They do the screening without it and take whatever risk comes with that.
So, for me, if someone requires references, I'm gone. To repeat, I'm not debating the value of references or whether or not someone has the right to ask for them. Anyone can ask for anything they want to ask for. But that's the first thing I look for because I'm not going to do it.
I guess with that rational we should do reviews because it's no ones bsiness who they have been with and we should just the risk that comes with no reviews, just like you think the ladies should. A guy may be too rough or any of many other things for some girls. By requiring references she can also see if you might be a good match for her thus making sure you're not disappointed.
pics, rates, reviews. Best combo of the above, I may put more emphasis on any of the three depending on my mood. Secondary is location, especially in LA. I do not want to travel 2+ hours. Must be incall. Degree of screening, I can provide some references, but if it is to much I will move on. I do not share my work phone. MSOG is important. Call me cheap, but specials catch my eye.
All of the above go into the positive category! But the one thing that will result in a no is an agency. Personally I do not have any "real" experience with an agency good or bad experiences. But the drawback is the verification process. I am an established hobbyist and have references but there is no way I am going to give out information that can link me to my employment or personal life. Not even to a provider. I seem to find plenty of nice ladies where this is not a problem. I post this because I want to give constructive feed back to you in hopes you can find a better way. With an agency personal info is even more of a concern since agencies often retain this info and are LE targets, so that info could easily fall into the wrong hands.
I hope everyone can play safe!
Her legs!

pic -- reviews then rate.... this is just me
I would say:
For me it's a combination of looks (photos) & reviews vs cost & ease of booking/screening.
I am hesitant to try a new girl with a premium donation who's reviews are just so-so. Or to book at a premium just to find the experience was just okay (even if she was super hot looking).
That's my 2 cents.
I take a quick look at the summary info on TER review; then check the provider pictures and most important is the reviews. They separate the many from the finest.
1. pictures I find attractive
2. reviews having them and be of trustworthy reviewers
3. services are in line with my wants
4. price is with-in my current finances
all of the above must be to my satisfaction before thinking of contact
As for any thing she says in her ad other than "see my reviews" means little or nothing to me. "I'm fun blah,blah, blah"... if she wasn't fun her reviews wouldn't be good. Her stats will be on her TER profile so the ad just has to grab my visual attention to get me to check the other criteria.
