I understand not wanting this particular guy as a client . As I said if someone was threatening me I would not tolerate that .
I would not dream of telling anyone how to run their business. Please do not misunderstand me and my point .
Your question:
"what do you do when some loser text you asking for discounts
he claims that he had appointments and was stood up 3 times "
You asked what do we do which I answered what I would do if I were you You asked .
The reason for my answer??
Because your not the first agent ever to be here and the normal thing for the most popular and successful of agents historically speaking has been to offer for discounts for no shows which admittedly you had one .
At one point he was almost a client , as in he booked and she didn't show, This is a failure to some extent .
You state:
"the girls I work with are not professional escorts
sometimes they flake out
not often but once in a while
if one flakes out
or is late
or only stays 35 minutes
you dont get a discount!"
Well that is very nice but the guy at this point, even if he is a total loser , had the opportunity to book with you and was left disappointed. This is a service industry he is not left with a tangible item when the hour is over .
The road has been paved before you . What I mean by that is this is not a matter of suggestion so much as a matter of how things have been done , always .
If someone gets 35 minutes they should pay for 35 minutes . I am sure you would agree if you paid for a car you would want it to do all the things you expect a car to do , did you want right wheel rotation with that? left wheel rotation? Reverse? Oh you wanted it to go forward as well?? Yes , of course you do . An hour is an hour not 35 minutes not 90 minutes, an hour.
This is how the other agents survive these sorts of situations and deal with difficult clients and disappointments .
Your girls may not be professional but you are .
You getting angry and insulted at me or others on the board for answering a question you asked is a little ridiculous . Do not ask a question you do not want an answer to, your in NY . I think you might think more carefully about your questions perhaps , because really you did ask. You are only now changing it to a portion of the original post that you now want us to address. BTW Your welcome , Pollie Amorous.
