Good mornings ladies and gents, hope you're morning is starting off awesome.
I have a question, I noticed ladies change some of their rates when traveling. I am doing my first tour and I can tell you the cost is much more expensive then local. Flights, hotel cost are $300+ and that's if you get a good bargain, taxi/Uber rides, food and supplies for your company. Is this typical ? Or do you keep your same rate? How about the hobbist ? How do you feel when a visiting ladies rate is different ? Do you get upset or understand? Does it turn you away from a visit ? Curious Jessica Jordan
...and it wouldn't turn me away. Of all the ladies I've seen, most keep the same rate, but a couple charged less and one charged moren than their home rate. I assume the ones that charged less were incentivizing us to see them and the one that charged more, it wasn't that much more. I think it was $50, which if you add up over all the guys she saw, probably covered some of the additional expenses that touring ladies have.
I think the key to being successful in touring is to get enough advance bookings to make it worth your while. Even then, you have to worry about cancellations. I remember one gal, who when I showed up on time, thanked me for showing up. It seems her whole day fell apart until I got there. Needless to say, she rocked my world that day.
...and I saw that she was visiting in my area, then I would probably see her even with a reasonable increase in her rates. I do enough travel for work myself to appreciate the added costs involved in making a living and would never gainsay someone making their living when they are attempting to widen their area of influence just for me
the few times I do travel for a city for work I offer incall which I don't at home so I do raise my rates.
But if you are touring and the expenses vs your appts figures out to you not making a profit then I would raise rates.
Some cities rates are higher compared to others such as NYC I guess it all depends on where you are traveling to and what you rates currently are.Do what works best for you.
Depends where you tour and going rate and expenses. Obviously NYC is high than most cities, so likely a lesser rate in other areas.
I only go where my rates are higher, so yes my rates jump... depending where I go. Chicago and Nashville are 150-200 more. When I go to DC and Boston, it will be much higher. NC will be slightly more, as the same for Atlanta. Supply equals demand and most cities are higher than Milwaukee. Also the fact that you are only touring vs being there full time matters much. Catching guys who will pay for a one timer vs guys who want to be regulars every week/month are much different.
Much like gals come to my area and charge more than me. They get the guys but would never make it daily for regulars.

I have no prob with touring rates. Perfectly understandable that there are extra expenses related to travel and accommodations.
Matter of fact I'm OK with differing fees reflecting different markets. For example we all know hotel rates in NYC are a hell of a lot higher than Raleigh NC.

I know some Vegas providers who will charge $500 in Vegas and only $300/hour on the east coast, 2 hour rate $400. Strange because costs are cheaper in Vegas compared to the DC area.
I would fully expect an increase in your rate when you travel to cover the various expenses you have outlined !
After all-the purpose of your trip is to make money-net money-not just more revenue !
Keep your eye on all of your expenses-make adjustments when warranted !!!
In general, I do understand the costs of touring, and therefore the higher rate attendant to that.
However sometimes a gal will be traveling to a city to visit family, or perhaps they just want to vacation in that city, so they have already accepted those costs, and anything they get by way of seeing a client is gravy. I've been the recipient of that kind of bargain several times before.
Other gals get someone to pay for their extra expenses in return for extra time, and therefore they can see other clients for their usual rate.
Then there's a gal who comes to my area to see a doctor of hers, so again, she does not have any extra charges in the sense that most traveling gals have.
As I said, there are many differing circumstances.
When considering the United States, I keep my rates the same for Dallas, Chicago, and other major cities in the Midwest simply because they are comparable to one another. However, when traveling to the East Coast, I have increased my rate simply because the cost is much higher. In addition, when traveling internationally, I adjusted my rates to fit within the market for places like Montreal, Toronto, and London. I think adjusting your rate is fair considering the additional costs and I believe many would also agree that it is fair so long as the rate is not astronomically high.
In my experience ladies tend to offer a hometown dis count compared to when they tour, not all, but many seem to. More expenses when traveling and perhaps more risk of cancellations maybe???? To
Guys are always interested in seeing someone new for the first time too. Demand may go up. Just my 2 cents.
ladies in the area being visited. A NYC lady traveling to Miami will need to lower her rate in order to be competitive with ladies in Miami. If the same NYC lady travels to LV or LA, then her rate will be similar if not a bit higher than her NYC rate.
Just like in real estate, it is all about location, location, location.
I've noticed that on many provider's websites, they lay out the prices for incall, outcall, and touring. That makes it easy for potential clients in other cities to decide if they want to see you, and, as others have indicated, you can hold off on going to a particular city until your calendar is filled.
I no longer see anyone who charges more during a tour. That might be problematic is some areas, but it works out just fine in NYC because there are a TON of amazing local ladies.
Eat local. Drink local. Fuck local.
