Hi everyone I’m Egypt, a new provider based in San Diego. I offer massage and enjoy dinner dates and social companionship. I’m open to escorting/companionship where it’s legal and safe. I’m here to learn best practices for screening, pricing, profile writing, and safety. Any advice for someone just starting out would be greatly appreciated. I reviewed the newbie board but it’s a bit overwhelming.

You're posting an ad & it should be on the SD buzz board.

You may want to start with the TER guidelines.

Your post is interesting because you state:
I’m open to escorting/companionship where it’s legal and safe.

In SD unless you have an outcall nude entertainment permit escorting is illegal. If you are wanting legal escorting that's safe maybe look in to Las Vegas BunnyRanch legal brothels.Research the laws.

Getting a website, and professional pictures is great way to invest in yourself & your business.

Best of luck to you!

1. Search the San Diego reviews here on TER.  
2. Filter your search for incall, Independent Massage providers. You won't need VIP for this.
3. Check out the listings and their ad links.
You'll find most advertise on Rubrankings. This will give you a range of ad profile styles and prices.
4. Post an ad on Rubrankings.  

The trick will be to get your first review on TER so you can establish credibility.  

If you're mainly interested in offering massage,  I wouldn't waste my resources on a professional website, but if you want to provide escort/fs, a website will go  a long way.

Registering as a provider on TER will give you access to DMs and your own reviews.

If you're worried about safety/screening as a newbie, some girls use a booker and share a space. It cuts into your potential profit, but it's an easier intro to the business and you can eventually break off once you have an established client base.

Welcome,  and good luck.

i think you have to have a website or online ad if you are massage provider to get reviews…
