12. Be consistent: For service, you will have your own limits and decide what level of service to provide.  My main point would be to be as consistent as possible in your service from client to client. (This fits in with 7. Have a routine.)  It is frustrating for a client to read a review that you do x, but then have a session and find that you won't.  I am aware that some clients may be so offensive (halitosis, BO, obesity etc.) that you just don't have the heart (or stomach) for it, but in general, the more consistent you can manage to be with service, the better.  Again, it's a matter of the client not wanting to be surprised negatively.   This is a touchy issue, I realize, and many providers don't like explicit reviews because they like to have the freedom to choose what to do and with whom.  They dislike having many expectations being set in that department.  I respect that need, but remember, there is also a strong need for clients to have reviews to understand what they are receiving for their hard-earned dollars, it's the only way we can avoid rip-offs, and improve our odds.  

13. Tips for Tips: Tips are at his discretion.  If you feel that you would like to have a "tiered" pricing approach, with different prices for different services, be clear about this upfront.  Clients will avoid you if they don't have a good sense of what you charge for various services, again, this goes hand in hand with 12. Be consistent in service and pricing.

14.  Respond to praise/criticism with class: You will meet many different men who have different tastes and desires.  You may develop a rapport with some, who may become regulars and true friends, but for others, the vibe may not be there.  Be kind and courteous to all, regardless of how they review you, and realize that a negative review is only one client's opinion of you.  Don't scramble to defend yourself, or try to put down the reviewer, this only reflects poorly on you, and certainly won't change his mind.  Remember that the more reviews you have, the more accurate a picture your clients will have of you, and the more satisified they will be with you as a provider.  If you are an excellent provider, the law of averages will work in your favor, and the review record will reflect it.  Even if a client doesn't consider you their favorite provider, they cannot help but be satisfied if your actual L/A/S matches your reviews. Remember there will always be those pricks who are never satisfied (me) as well as stalkers who profess their undying love to you and ask you to marry them daily.  Take both with a grain of salt.

15. Looks, age, smoking, tats, fitness: I consider these things to be fixed.  It takes a level of effort to change these that is extremely difficult for anyone to do, provider or not.  Unless you go under the knife, invent time travel, have extreme willpower, use laser removal, or become a Tai Bo maniac...  these are a part of who you are.   Don't sweat them.  Looks are only one factor in the equation.  Some providers are incredible looking, but are mechanical and uninspired from a service perspective.  Others are plain, yet know how to exquisitely tease and please a man until he is on his knees begging for her body.  Rarely do you see a direct correlation between model looks and success as a provider.   The others things, age, tats, smoking, are rarely show stoppers.  They are only show stoppers if he is expecting something else!!  Don't try to hide or obscure these traits.  Be upfront about who you are, even if you think some people may not become clients because of it.  Over the long run, this will pay dividends.

16. Use the entire session: He has paid for the full session time, and you should expect to spend the full time with him.  Again, if you have a routine, you'll be prepared with an alternative activity if he gets his rocks off in 4 minutes.  Suggest a backrub, or just caress him, or ask if he'd like hot bath or shower with you, again, be creative, and have a plan. Make it clear that you are there for him, don't jump up and get dressed, unless it's clear that he is ready to leave.  I understand that multiple pops are another touchy issue, and if you don't feel comfortable with more than one attempt, be open about it and tell him.  While he might not be overjoyed, he'll be glad to know how you feel, rather than waiting for something that is never going to come, so to speak.  

To conclude, in almost every case the underlying theme is that the client will respond positively if he feels you are responsive and making a good-faith effort in showing him an erotic, passionate, sensual time.  Of course, YMMV, and hobbiests will vary in whether or not any/all of these items are important to them.  But if you can do these right, you will already be ahead of 90% of the providers out there.

Have fun, stay safe, and leave the lights ON!!
