Since you probably won't do that, I want to know how soon I can get one free?  

But I like the idea. I think it makes your regulars feel more appreciated.

... a discounted gift strikes me as hard to manage. After all, an incall situation involves fixed and unavoidable costs, so discounting the gift can really cut into your margin. The size of the discount could not be very much unless you see a significant increase in volume. Or at least, a goodly number of hours would have to accumulate before you could offer a discount. The farther off you push the reward, the less of an incentive it becomes.  

I like the idea of offering extra time. An extra 30 minutes added on to the basic hour would be very attractive, to me at least, yet would be unlikely to reduce revenue in a meaningful way so the reward might be available much sooner. Depending how you feel about your time, you might even offer an extra 30 for every third visit. Or you could ramp it up - an extra 15 on the third visit, 30 on the sixth, etc. The interval is up to you, of course, but in my experience a little relaxation on time happens naturally to some extent. No reason you couldn't formalize it. Something to consider, at least.  

In any case, though, be aware that once you offer any sort of discount it can be kind of difficult to discontinue the offer. Give that some thought, also.  

ps If you like my idea, feel free to reward me with extra time. ; )

I like minn idea.  

Or even like a every 10th or what ever is free type of thing. But the added time might be easier to keep track off and you still get a consistant income coming in.

You seem to want to build loyalty and repeat visits with clients you have already seen and screened etc.  If you are looking to keep business vs draw new business I think your initial cost of time and screening has already been spent so I would work with those clients you enjoy seeing and privately work out the arrangement you are looking for.  I wouldn't advertise some sort of benefit you don't think you could fulfill if your inbox gets overwhelmed with new clients because you advertised some discount program.  Just my thoughts for you to consider.

Hey guys!  
   
 I'm contemplating creating a rewards program in which I offer a discount/gift amount toward your next visit after X amount of hours spent with me. Relationship building is as important to me as the "freaky" *wink* side of the hobby and I want to give back to those whose company I value and who are helping put me through school.  
   
 I'm open to suggestions for a platform as I highly doubt you'd like to carry a Jennie punch card. haha There are online programs that track this or I could create my own or maybe there's another option I haven't thought of.  
   
 Is this something you would find valuable? How could I best serve you with a rewards program?  
   
 Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!  
   
 Jennie

+1 for Minn.  Just make the terms clear if you go the extra time route.  Extra time can get tricky and confusing for a client.  I know i've been confused a couple of times.

I thing you should keep whatever you offer off the record and just between you and the gentlemen you offer it to.  This would make the clients feel they are really getting a special deal just for them only, and would be more likely to increase your return business.

I agree it is powerful if a guy feels he is getting a special deal just for him because you like him. Certainly likely to bring him back again.  

On the flip side, though, and I speak from personal experience, if a guy gets something extra "because you like him" on one occasion, he is likely to feel that he will get the same extra the next time as well. Which can lead to hurt feelings, or at least require a careful explanation, when he doesn't. So if you go this route you should make it clear up front that it's not an every time thing.  

I remind myself frequently that no matter how much I like a provider, and no matter how sweet she is to me, it's still a business and boundaries have to be observed. A smart provider keeps her boundaries in mind and maintains them gently when pressed. If you let them slip, it can take a more forceful correction to get back on track. And again. that's personal experience talking.

without me knowing ahead of time, the lady put my donation back in my pocket and said thanks being a loyal customer.  

Another one bought me dinner afterwards.  I even had one buy me a gift, not sure if it was her norm, but it sure did surprise me and make me feel special.

The planned ones are nice and allow us to plan around our budgets, but being totally surprised was very rewarding!

Specials a great if the special brings the lady within your price rang when they are not.  

Loyalty programs are very nice too, but you hit the nail on the head with, how is the best way to keep track without paper trails.

Honestly, it is rewarding to know that even in a p4p arena that there is kindness and caring!

Helping someone that had a need out of their control and a community coming together to help out!

Sorry Jennie, my last two comments are not intended to take away from your original question, just to state the fact that you are looking to give back or do something rewarding!

I agree with the above posts about a formal program being hard to manage (and something online can be hacked into, btw), and once started difficult to take away.  So I like the idea of rewarding loyal customers with little "extras" now and then, such as a some extra time when it works for you (Jennie I mean) and the client, or an unexpected discount on a longer session.  I've experienced both of those random acts of kindness recently--totally unexpected and greatly appreciated.

...the better they treat you with repeat visits, the better you'll treat them with incentives like extended play, generous discounts for extended dates or overnites. If you give them a freebie after 3 visits, they may not see you for a 5th visit. I think I would have a difficult time with not paying a woman for the time she spent with me, even if she told me it's a freebie. As the old saying goes, "Gas, grass or ass...nobody rides for free!" I would at least give her a generous honorarium.

Ladies all run their businesses different.   They charge what they want, run the specials they want and decline clients when they want.  I think in that same token they should be able to reward their clients as they want.

I think for the most part, most ladies are pretty smart about their business.  Like any other business in America, there are those that will lose their butts and be out of business.  That said, if a lady decides to give a 4 for 3 deal and the guy does not come back for appointment 5 may very well not have went back for appointment 2 had she not offered the 4 for 3 deal.

I also  think for the most part a lady that puts money back in your pocket at the end of a date without running specials is doing it for a reason and will more than likely be offended if you throw it back in her face.  

My.02

Maybe the ladies would best be able to chime in on that kind of action.

and not every lady that does not shave the way you prefer them to be.  

I guess I should be happy you have whittled you trashing someone down to 1 huh.   Nobody is perfect! :-)

What ever makes you feel good at night.

Call me chintzy...call ladies that are natural smelly, whatever makes you feel good.  

Don't forget to got to twitter and facebook and call some people names there! :-)

You must have been the school bully or the guy that called all the less fortunate people names.  You haven't grown up much have you!?

Keep on putting on the facade...I am sure you have all the ladies convinced!

I'm all about a special.  The last several providers I have seen have all been offering a discounted 30, 45 or 60 min session.

I typically wait until I see a provider whom I fancy post up a special on the ad board, then I jump.  I hobby less with this strategy, but given the economy today, that's not such a bad thing.

they see who you are!  I made 2 statements... responding to your words and I quote "I won't even consider a woman who chooses the unnatural route of letting her pussy hair grow freely. I'd rather invest my money at the strip clubs on women who understand and appreciate what men like. No hair = no odors. "  Not my words or made up...YOU SIR wrote them!  And the second one I again quote "Nothing says chintzy more than encouraging women to " puts more money back in your pocket at the ... "  again not my words, they are in FACT words YOU wrote.  Nothing made up there!

Explain to everyone here how a lady being natural is unnatural?  And how Natural hair = odor!    I have to hear this!  

Speaking of weak arguments and made up crap.  And I quote you once again so I don't mess with your intent " You are a pimp. You are a low life, a scum bag, a scourge on our community. "  These again are YOUR words that YOU wrote.

Maybe you could explain to everyone what a pimp is and how you came to that conclusion by my response of a lady giving my donation back to me?  

And they are in fact words formed in a way of a bully if people do not conform to your way of thinking then you berate them.  Nice!

Because I won't bow down to you being a bully you call me a pimp?  Name calling another form of bullying!

You sir are what many people talk about as cyber bullying and in fact what many people deem to be VERY unsafe people!  I must say...I feel bad for you that you actually tried to call me something that YOUR words portray you to actually be.  Looking in the mirror each morning must be a very sad thing for you in the morning.  You should get help before you hurt yourself or worse yet someone here in the hobby!  There is a LOT of hate in your words!

Not sure where you are going with the Ol' Soul thing, but I do have manners!  In general I am a peaceful person, but I will stand up and debate with someone that is being a cyber bully!

That way the lady can also tailor the reward to the loyal client based on what they would like best.

I have between two & 3 people that currently see me once a week each of them get a great rate break & occasional extra time...though I admit life happens & I can't always guarantee the extra time so their discount is important.
     I also admit at times it's disheartening when they visit others & I know those other are enjoying the regular going rate from those few guys...but TOTALY my own issue I know.  
I always give discounts to anyone who visits me more than once in a 6 week period- but that's where it can get dicey....

someone visits during a deal or enjoys the benefits of a frequent visitor rate & then suddenly I don't see them for 3-5 months, well then I assume they would look at my website & or profile & adjust accordingly, but that's not always the case....so whatever you do -for each of your sake -have very clear outlines & expectations so as not to have hard feelings.

Every guy would love that and would want that but I am sure you would not want every guy you see to have this deal. Thats where the YMMV comes in. I know a few girls who would NEVER EVER EVER do this and have told me many times.
