Truly, it may seem like a dumb question 'cause I'm thinking why hand a guy my card at the end of a date?  If I'm there, he obviously knows my number/name.

Here's my question/line of thinking and it's sparked from something Sins said below.  At the date's end you can subtly mention a review if the gentleman would like to do that.  My card has my TER ID on it and my Escorts ID as well.  I'm thinking if I had him a card with this info (as well as the other jargon) it'll maybe might make it easier for him to review me if he so chooses.

So the crux.  Do I look like an idiot handing him the card based on my original paragraph?  Do I look silly for doing this or what's the normal card protocol?

Meh, I over think things, don't I?  Heh, but I know you TER people, you'll tell me THAT too.

Thanks!!

I would wonder in terms of discretion if a card is risky or not? In his hands someone may come across it that he might not want to have find it, or it might fall into the wrong hands?

I am no expert! Just thinking out loud

A gal handed me one at a M&G.  I haven't seen her yet, but the card is tempting me to.

I think it's only a matter of time.

it could get the hobbyist in trouble by his SO.  Now, all he has to do is throw the card away before he gets home but some guys save the cards for future use.

Yes, it is a great tool to remind a guy about YOU.

One lady gave me a card and it had her web site and phone number along with some flowers as if she provided floral arrangements.

I like the card idea, and have been given several over the years...I give them one of mine as well.

As for a review, I don't think there's anything wrong with mentioning that a review would be nice if they are so inclined.

While it is a nice gesture and well meaning, if someone is going to review you chances are they already know how to find you on TER. Some may even take it the wrong way and feel pressured into writing that review.

See, that was what I was worried about.  I don't want to be pushy at all or pressure anyone.  I know if he wants to review me he will.

What I was thinking was with my TER info right on there he'd have less work to find me.  There's a lot of Saschas... maybe not my spelling, but the name is popular...

... but there's only one YOU -- and I bet most guys will remember card or not!

Still, I personally like the card idea.

Would I keep it laying around or in my wallet? No. But it would go in my rented gym locker.

The one you give to me is going to end up in the trash long before I leave the building.

I've written plenty of reviews, and remembering the lady has never been a problem.  I don't need evidence of my time coming home with me.

I used to hand out my cards at meet and greets,
now that everyone knows me, I have no need to hand them out.

you never know who he could give the card to or who could find it. so if he is single, the card could be a godsend for you, him passing it off to a friend. If he isn't, you never know who is going to find it.

you might be better off having them in a little business card thing by the door and say " if you enjoyed our time together today and are willing to help a girl with a review my card has my review info on it" and gesture towards it.

guys will almost feel obligated to review you at that point.

it is for the ladies.  It can be a part of the after discussion if the session went well.  Talk about the site you wish you had reviews on.  Tell him you would not mind White listing him if he writes an honest review.

One lady asked me if I would also post it on another website and I was happy to.  If she had not asked I never would have known that was important to her.

I used to ask for Whitelist referrals until I got a couple. I still may if I really connect. One of the ladies needed to be emailed how to do it.

As for cards and call backs I personally do not want a card.  This is something for my SO to catch me with.  I am more likely to see a woman again that emails me with kind words after I have seen her and makes me feel special.  A "thank you" or personal touch goes a long way.

Don't you like it when a client texts you a big thanks afterwards?  I like it too but my email is more descrete.

I also see a woman that has helped me mentally with my personal life.  In addition to her body and actions being hot, her mind is a turn on.  (Thanks Vivienne)

I just reviewed a lady with a very common name.
Once you put in the email address, the website, the ph #, I beleive the ter data base figures out who the escort is. If there is a problem once the review is published you can always do a problem report. I would probably refuse your business card. As LittlePhil said, save a tree.

There is no mystery why/how some providers get scores(if not hundreds)of reviews.

1. They offer excellent service.

2. They diplomatically request the favor of a review which serendipitously enlightens a possible 'Newb' to TER.

I think it's a bad idea.  
If he sticks it in his pocket & forgets it, he gets caught.
If he throws it in the trash, then there's X number of your id cards floating around waiting to be found.  
If you have contacted the gent by e-mail...  hope his is secure...  you could ask him if he would write a review.  If he says yes, ask if you can e-mail him a link to TER & anywhere else & include your id info.  He can refuse, but at least he'll not be surprised...  
What do others think?

I will say this has given me a lot to think about.  Mostly, I was concerned because of the gap of time between TER reviews... but the other site's reviews roll in... so I don't know.

I do like to be personal and I thought it might be a nice touch.  Kind of 1870's like calling cards used to be.  I remember reading a passage in Laura Ingalls Wilder (Yes, I read Little House, come on what girl didn't?) about her giving her name card to her future husband... and he still had it and showed it to her on their wedding day.  That stuck with me so I think the card thing holds a different context for me.  I think it's quaint.

...I'm not interested in giving a client anymore rope to hang himself with than me all over his email or phone records.

It's clever marketing/branding for parties but on a daily basis?  I think not.

I don't delete until after my date...  on the way home...  If I delete & we fail to connect, it's easier to redial.  Without fail I delete on the way home.
