Hi everybody. Happy Hump Day!

I need to hear from you all (yes, AGAIN... and thanks for being so helpful).

My current main ad clearly says that I only do outcalls but everybody calling me as of late seems to want incalls. My home is not available. I live in a nice urban area but it is urban so I dont know about calls in my home. Plus I dont like that idea of using my home even if I lived elsewhere. My income level is not at the point yet where as I could rent another apartment right away. But my requests for outcalls are really low now so I need to revamp and restructure.

How are most girls doing incalls... hotels, motels? On one of the few posts I found after doing a search said that it can mess up an escort's future reputation to do incalls at a motel if she is planning to go upscale later. Do you all think that is true?



Also at point during the screening process does  he get the address?  (I tried going to meet a guy to go somewhere with him and he didnt show to the cafe and he was already screened.  I was in a spot that I would have easily seen him first.)

Guys what's the protocol according to you all? Im out to please and of course to earn a decent living but Im trying to stay safe as well.

Thanks,
Maddie

that a nice hotel is affordable, I would advise against trying to get set up in a motel. Personally, almost all of my dates are outcall. I only play when I'm travelling, and try to get a nice suite, because I do enjoy hosting. Nearly all of the ladies that I have seen on an incall basis, have had very nice rooms in upscale hotels. Of course, there were a couple of exceptions early on, but I've learned a few things since then. I have also seen a couple of ladies who rented a separate apartment for their incalls, and they were also upscale. And finally, I agree with you that doing business in your urban home is not a good idea. I think you'll just have to ride out the storm like the rest of us. When it becomes affordable, get yourself a nice hotel room, and start looking for an apartment. You might also try some touring, if that's possible for you. My house woud be a good place to start!!!

Incalls are the norm here in Chitown.  A nice/safe hotel is the way to go, nothing dumpy as that's a sure way to cause concern and anxiety on a guys initial impression.  Something along the lines of a Marriot...etc.

The 2/3 call system.  
Set-up appt  
Call the day/morning of to confirm and give name of hotel
Call when he's in the parking lot and you give the room number at that time.

Using nice hotels to start with will have no bearing on "going upscale later"??  Put a feeler out on the local MIA discussion board after you get a professional ad and web-sight up announcing pre-booking specials for a particular day for incall.  This will let you know if you truly have what guys are looking for and preventing you from paying for a hotel room and sitting there all day with no business.

Good Luck!!  

Maddie,

I can only speak for myself but I can only do incalls with my providers. Some of them have no incall locations so most of the ladies I see are low volume. So two of my favorites get the motel and I add it to the fee. One lady splits the cost of the room with me.

I tried at first to get the motel and let them come to me put the paper trail almost got me in major trouble. So now the provider has to furnish the location.

I do prefer mid to higer rated motels for her safety as well as min.

I agree that a nice hotel is the way to go.  The gentleman calls from the parking lot & you tell him how to get to you.  Sometimes my Fav has a room next to an outside door, othertimes it's through the lobby, turn left to elavator, Rm 203

It is much more risk to work from home, generally unacceptable.  Hotels, you can change rooms daily.  Change hotels even.  Provider rents the room...  it's her turf...  she controls the environment.

Outcall is more risk to the provider, you don't know what you're walking into.

Where I am (Las Vegas), outcall is the norm due to the tourism market.  As a local, that makes things difficult for me, so I understand guys desire for incall.  I've seen a handful of ladies that end up in an inexpensive hotel/motel, and most of them never seem to break into the higher tier.  I can't say that there's a correlation, but it's possible.

Providing incall in your residence is a bad idea in my opinion.  Even with the best of screening, you are leaving yourself exposed in a lot of ways.  I know some ladies that do this, but they also move a lot.

I think reasonably upscale hotels are going to help you succeed.  How you price the cost into the equation is another matter.

Good luck.

As little phil mentioned, it is hard to give specific advice without knowing your local market, but in most markets it is easy to get a reasonably priced 3-star or higher hotel room using Priceline or Hotwire, often the day before or the day of the appointment. (In the last week, I booked 3 star rooms in two different mid-western cities for $39 and $48 per night, although that is especially cheap because of the holiday weekend.)  I usually frequent agencies in Boston who have incall hotel rooms, and I am most comfortable in larger hotels (at least large enough to have banquet facilities), because there are always people coming and going. So people do not attract attention walking by the front desk, wondering which direction the elevator bank is.  

Because I live out in the boonies, when I book with an independent who does not have an incall location, I will book a room for myself, usually halfway between my location and the provider.

If you spend some time on the Better Bidding site linked below, they have lists of hotels in every state that frequently show up in Priceline and Hotwire bookings, so about 75% of the time, you will know the name of the hotel before bidding.

You guys are wonderful! All of you. Thanks so much.

Thanks for the steps, all the background info and all. I am going to reread it all and go to the better bidding site as well.

HUGS AND KISSES!

My thing is incall at my apartment. i seldom do outcall because i don't feel comfortable doing so, and i always add on a travel fee no matter where it is because thats the way I do things.
I like using my place, it's safe and i have to go down to let the gentlemen in, if i don't feel comfortable when seeing them, or if i get that funny feeling in the pit of my stomach that something isn't right, i just don't open the door! (that never happened thank God)
i perfer incall.

That way, I can get a location that I'm comfortable with. I book in advance and tell the provider when I set up the appointment where I'll be staying. If she has any adversion to the place, she can tell me then so I can change.

Try PriceLine for hotels. A lady I saw recently was in a Hyatt Regency that she booked for $50 per night. About the same price as a Motel 6. So on a good day you can have your cake and eat it too at those prices.

Good luck

I, for one, hesitate to see providers who do incall in their homes. It's too easy for nosy neighbors to notice the traffic and call in LE. That may not happen very often, but once is more than enough. It's a risk to both the provider and the client.

Maddie,

I would add three other resources to the list for a lady looking for a nice hotel:

1. biddingfortravel.com is another site that gives information on priceline. You can get some incredible deals sometimes, especially in cities with an excess of hotel rooms or lower-ranked motels in the country. However, Priceline and Hotwire take away some control over which hotel you get in return for good prices, sometimes (bids are sometimes as high or higher than from other sources)

2. Check sidestep.com , which gives you a very thorough list of what's available and the best prices offered on the net. You can often find an excellent deal and have full information on the hotel.

3. Before buying a room, check on the hotel through tripadvisor.com. Reviews are often painfully honest and will reveal any problems with the hotel, including recent issues like construction, etc.

Wow! Thanks, I'm going to check out the sites now.

Thanks again,
Maddie
