I am a fbsm provider. I used to work for a great agency but they have disappeared. I have been independent but don't advertise that much because I'm so paranoid. I used to use cl (which is a DEFINITE no now).I'm using hx now but even that isn't going that well for me. I'm considering cv and ero. Questions:

1) Ladies how do you thoroughly and properly screen clients?

2)What if a client doesnt have references? Are there other ways you consider them?

3)What are your suggestions regarding safety and avoiding le predicaments?

4) CV and ero guide are they useful? And are the clients (compared to cl now) better? Where else can I advertise??

Your help is very much appreciated!

1.  That you get VIP status and then request providers to give you this information in PMs rather than on the board.  Specifics of how screening is done is not something that should be shared with the prying eyes of LE who monitor these boards.

2.  That you research the subject of screening on this board.  (Use the search feature and enter the word: screening.)  This is one of the most often discussed subjects on the board and you'll have no problem finding hours of reading on the subject.

is to call 1 or 2 providers in your area that have similar rates and are similar to you in age and services.  Ask if you can meet for lunch and discuss the hobby for your location (answers sometimes varry by local).

Darling, for your own safety, screen, screen, screen.

Thats the thing I'm not exactly sure how to properly screen. Or if I'm even doing it right
