Yes and I do know some of them have been naughty in a real nice way.


Ho Ho Ho

Now first im not talking about any one person. lets be absolutely uneviquically clear; no one particular individual. im merely replying to the question not maligning anyone.
(that paragraph long disclaimer i had to preface this post with, to reduce a 3/4 page pissing contest down to a 1/4 one should tell you a lot about the state of the hobby currently in phoenix)

theres a perception that the better known indies are hard to book with, you gotta screen, wait for references to come back, deal with two call bs and on and on ad'nauseum.

An agency has the perception of being easier to deal with on the spur of the moment. Now never haivng used an agency (the records they keep, and my natural dislike of middlemen have always kept me from calling.)

i cant even say if this perception is true or not. Since logic would dictate an agency needs to screen to stay viable.
It maybe they are faster about the decision making process or theres a variable im unaware of that speeds things up.

Also alot of the local ladies answer their own phones and there can be a delay in getting a return call. i know many guys who wont leave vm on general principles. there again an agency has the leg up since they have someone being paid to pick up the phone, even if just to say "sorry too busy call soso".

personally again i prefer to deal with the principal rather than a vice so i dont mind waiting.

its an apple, oranges comparison for the most part. i can see why some guys would rather deal with an agency over an indie however.
