I agree posting rates is the best option, but that's what's most comfortable for me. Having a live conversation with a potential client is a part of the screening process for many. It certainly is for me anyway. I can tell alot about a person just by hearing their voice, & I won't book w/o talking on the phone first. Perhaps what you are refering to is a method those that require you to call for rates are using to hear your voice. If you don't want to perform that type of legg-work, that is certainly your choice. There are plenty of ladies that do post rates that will tickle your fancy for sure. Safe wishes!
I was asking a question from my view point. I know a few ladies are wondering why they don't have more business, so I thought I'd add my 2 cents.
You post your rates yet you like to have the phone call to screen. I use P411, the White List and references for screening so I never thought of a phone call as a screening tool.
So do you screen based on questioned asked like "How much for an hour of your time?" vs. "How much for BBBJ, DATY and 3 pops with a flute up my ass?"?
OMG! LOL! Gotta love your sense of humor. Any-hoo, My website lists prices, & services. (going for cover with that statement) I don't answer those questions over the phone. I tell them to review my ad, &/or website for those answers, then get back to me if they are still interested. I let my "Gut instincts" be my guide. If in the course of conversation, my gut ties up in knots, I don't even ask why. I just pass. My instincts are my BFF. It's rather difficult to "tune-in" on an email. For me anyway. I have passed on P411 members, & Whitelisted gents as well when my tummy says something just isn't right. I have probably missed out on a few terriffic encounters that way, but heck. I'm safe, alive, &w/o an arrest record.
yep. tonite I saw a girl from out of town for the first time. we txted a few times, talked on the phone for the usuall 2 call. the subject of rates never came up. at all. thanks to her website I never had to ask. I liked that. I even thew in an extra .02 just for good measure. BTW good time too (come oooonnnn shill friday)

I've always gone by the idea that the less conversation there is about rates, at least until both parties know the other is legit, is safest.
This ad doesn't list rates but mentions"ABSOLUTELY NO QUESTIONS I WILL TERMINATE YOUR CALL" ummm, spose I'm just supposed to drive around aimlessly with a few grand in my pocket?
