On a daily basis, without fail, I get that infamous call looking to get together within an hour. If the caller is someone I have seen before, or has called in the past & already provided screening information, has several WL Referrals, or has a nice handful of Ok's on P411, this is not much of a problem. (If I am not already booked)

So the thought I am pondering is this. Most gents have a list of ladies in the back of their minds whom they have an interest in. I am wondering if pre-screening might be something to consider. I get that booking in advance can be difficult, & it has been my experience that when advance bookings (a week or more in advance) do occur, they are more likely to cancel. I completely understand that many gents have only a small window to work with & that often times, the opportunity has to be acted upon with some immediacy.

Would appreciate some thoughts.

Safe wishes!

I have offered what screening information I have, as far ahead as several months. My main concern is regarding how that information is kept for that long a time frame.

However, alot of the guys do not like to give screening info unless and until they have an appt. set.   Wish there was a middle ground but there really isn't.  It is very hard to accomodate last minute/same day appts when you know nothing about the gent and want to do screening.  Provider references do not always get back to you in a timely fashion because they have a life and are not available 24/7.

I think it's the only way to go, especially since it can take a days or sometimes weeks to complete.

P411, for example, even has a "Pre-Screening Only" contact option so a little back and forth can take place. You want to be sure of the gent, but the gent may also have special interests or concerns that are better addressed ahead of time instead of upon meeting.

..... My experience is more of the opposite....those who contact me to make appts and be screened the day before or the day of are more likely to cancel. Those who book a week or more ahead of time and we keep up with each other here and there till the appt are more likely to keep it even with people i've seen before lol dunno what's up with that.

I have found it works out well.  I am always up front with the lady and say I'm not sure when I'll have time to see you , but would like to get the screening out of the way.  She is usually happy to do this, then she is not pressured to hurry the screening process.  We then stay in contact and in a week or 2 I can find some free time and we can enjoy each others company.

I have pre screened many times with no problems.  It seems to work well, but I also do my homework on the lady before doing that.  I am also about 5 hours from the cities so if I have trouble with a NCNS I could easily be SOL.   bigdell

Same here . I'm pretty fast at screening and usually ones that contact me have it together so it runs smoothly . If I do take a last minute they either flake by not responding or flat out Ncns

Things like provider references or a P411 membership for example I don't think pose any risk.
