Used to work with an agency, but finally decided to go solo
Still learning all the ropes, but definitely looking forward to learning the ropes. And meeting some new people.  

You know a lot from the agency side but there is much to be gained from reading the Self-Help Center. All of it. Even the stuff for the hobbyists. Find out how to get the free limited provider VIP membership and lots more. FYI: the link to the Self-Help Center is upper right under the red and white life preserver it's on most discussion boards.

you consider getting better quality photos for your website and a few more of them.
Also, for "contact me" you have a screening form which is fine but the other option you have is to "text" you? I didn't see an email address for you on your website? Screening form and email are the two most common means for potential clients to contact you with their info. You would also need an email address for your TER profile which would be submitted by your first TER reviewer.

since you used to be with an agency, and they did the screening for you, you'll need to make sure you know how to screen really really well.  There is nothing more important than your safety.
If you have a friend who's been escorting for awhile ask her.  Try looking for blogs by escorts about screening.

 Any advice or tips for the newbie is greatly appreciated

Thank you for the advice I'm not to sure what you mean that im charging for incall?
Unfortuantley for me, I haven't worked with the agency in awhile and am just starting out again, so I cant get reviews until I see someone, but then again people dont want to see someone who has no reviews. I've signed up on a few different sites and have a few ads up, so hopefully someone is will to see me soon, who can leave a review

 Next, always go with your gut.  You know that little voice that tells you a potential new client gives you the creeps. Even though your young, that little voice has kept many escorts and hobbyists out of trouble.  
   
 Finally, about your rate. While you're in LA and your rate isn't all that high for LA, without any reviews, you may have some difficulty with getting reviews.  Also the fact incall is only available with the client paying  can be an issue. There are plenty of LA providers with lots of great reviews  with a similar donation as yours, that don't charge for incall.  Check the internet, you book hotel rooms at sharp rates on line, especially around at LAX, at the more upscale business hotels.

Thank you for the advice.  
I updated my site and included my email address.  

You can contact TER and have them connect this handle (baileybeautiful) to that profile. They will likely ask you to prove you are the same person but it should be doable.

just did a search and unfortunately I haven't had any sort of reviews
