Get yourself a hobbying phone.

Am I the only one who is having trouble getting providers to reply to phone calls or messages?  Are y'all that busy that you can ignore requests from potential clients?

In the last month I have attempted to connect with at least 6 providers, through texts, phone calls, emails, with only about a 10% response rate.  You will have to take my word for it that the messages I have sent or voice mails are polite, respectful, friendly, and follow the requests on the provider's website or in the ad.  Yet so few are returned.

What is going on?   Either everyone is so busy or I am doing something wrong.  But this seems to be a phenomenon of the last 6 months or so.  

And too lazy to respond. Try girls who are advertising on the Photo Page here.

Lots of us have been getting laid left and right.

Usually when I do it, I do it right down the middle. lol

 
But yes, I have had zero problems getting laid despite COVID and everything else going on. Pussy is a powerful magnet for guys, and money is an equally powerful magnet for the ladies. Besides healthy young women like the type I like to be with are among the lowest "at risk" groups for COVID, I live by myself so I have no worries about "killing grandma", so personally I haven't had any reason to slow down at all nor do I plan to unless given a LOT better reason to do so.

maybe its your breath .....  teasing ... yes its strange times indeed.   i too have been surprised by those who have and havent replied.   but there are plenty of ladies available for a verified gentleman.   just be respectful and show a concern for staying safe in your day to day life

I guess math isn't your strong suit. lol

 
But you aren't as dumb as the idiot who suggested you look on the photo board without checking out your reviews to have any idea where you are located, or more importantly the type of provider you are looking for. It's obvious that NONE of the ladies posting on the Photo Board are your "type" all of them being GG's at the present time. So I guess that is hardly an option for you right now.

 
All I can say is keep trying, I am sure right now there is a TS provider wondering why her inbox is empty waiting for someone like you to reach out to her. Keep in mind that there are a LOT of providers cutting back on sessions over fear of COVID, maybe with the vaccine/s becoming available that will become a trend of the past. We can only hope.

Was how did he get 6/10 of one provider to respond to his post? Pretty interesting feat.

FWIW I see as many GGs as TSS.  Last time I looked there were no local providers on this photo board.  

If COVID is a problem for a particular escort then why advertise?   Can’t work in this business without exposure.  

COVID may play a role in that it seems to me the number of listings seems to be way down.  So I would surmise those still in the business are busier than they used to be.

Where are you finding their ads?  

TER?
Eros?
P411?
Slixa?
Other?

A 10% response rate is very low.  Granted, your sample size is small.  Eros is the only one where my response rate is below 50%.  But it is only below 50% when I don't cross check with with other sites.

All of the above, although rarely Slixa.  Also skipthegames, and tsescorts, and tryst.   Some of them are cross posted, others are exclusive on one site.  But I do my homework before making contact.

when many providers take some time off for the holidays.  And some who don’t already live in a warm place are spending some time in such a place, for work or vacation.

 
That being said, I appreciate it when providers put an OOO message on their emails (my preferred channel) so I know not to expect a response from them for awhile.  

Understood.  Many are taking some time off.  Vacation time.  Family time.  COVID time.  But keep in mind I am answering local ads.  If the provider is not available for whatever reason, then I doubt they would be posting ads.

Kind of an important detail, yes?

 
Who knows, maybe you’re on some blacklist.  

If they don’t respond i feel like I dodge a bullet lol

topping more.  All of this sounds like hurt feelings to me, like a woman who just found out she was a one-night stand.  

I don't know who you give as a reference or what kinda information you supply but there are some providers who shy away from seeing guys who frequent TS's.  
I know a few ladies that, that for whatever reason won't see a guy who sees TS's. So it's something to consider.

I've had a few ladies tell me that, too.  They check the reviews on their customers and if they find crossover, they BL the guy.  I've been told by some of the San Diego ladies that they don't see guys who hobby in TJ, either.  It would be better for mongers to leave these two groups out of their reviews.    

both TJ and TS bring their own stigmas with them, but for the guys who like to write reviews without having adverse consequences for doing so, there is always the option to write those particular reviews under an alias.

I am not getting into a debate about whether those biases on the part of many providers actually have merit, only that they exist. There can be ZERO debate about whether or not at least "some" providers will refuse to see guys who see TS providers as there have been several threads on the subject where many providers have gone on record as doing so.

 
Now as for providers screening out mongers who frequent TJ, I can't supply proof of that, but would it REALLY surprise you if a bunch of HDH's would want to screen out guys who are used to paying $100 hr or less?

Ñah.... no shots fired here.  As far  as  TJ goes I wouldn't be surprised if the problem was less competition with cheap pussy than how they think that cheap pussy may be used, as uninformed and wrong as they may or may not be...... just sayin'

Suzee the slut

single instance of a SD girl getting  an STD from a guy who . . . . . . wait for it . . . . . saw TJ girls.  A lot of other local providers panicked and stopped seeing guys with TJ  reviews. It was a curable disease, but the girl still  lost about 14 days of work and was understandably pissed off.   Somebody tried to post about it but it came down because you're not allowed to name someone and claim they have, or gave you, an STD per TER rules. The elephant in the room is that if she didn't go BB with the guy, she probably would not have caught anything.    Play safe everyone.  

I am a firm be!iever that SOME ladies just talk way too much.  Also. that sounds suspiciously like you are advocating for less than full disclosure CDL..... hmmmmmm.

Suzee the slut

remedy would be to avoid posting reviews on TS or TJ providers if they want to avoid being blacklisted.  I'm not advocating anything.  There is discrimination in this biz.  That's a fact, and I'm against painting any generic group with a broad brush, based on race, country of origin, or sexual preferences,  To each his own.  However, it was only about ten years ago when I had some American independent providers refuse to see me because of my Kgirl reviews.  Their reason was because ALL Asian girls are dirty and disease-ridden because they are sex slaves and trafficked.  As the Kgirl busness model has become more visible most of the indies, except the complete morons, know that Asian girls who are trafficked are the outliers and NOT the mainstream Asian part of this biz. So yes, if full disclosure is going to bring out the worst in human nature, then I think there are times when a little LESS disclosure is appropriate.  I stand by what I said.  

I for one make it pretty much well known that Who you are is not nearly as important to me as How you are and from that I make my assessment of whether or not we spend time together.  You are correct in stating that this is an endeavour filled with discrimination plus judgemental thought, words and actions.... many are hurtful and it is no place for the thin-skinned of any sexual identification predeliction or proclivity.    The race and ethnicity topics are a Pandoras Box which most do not wish to engage in, neither do I my thoughts and actions on these topics are my own and they will stay that way other than what I said in my opening here.    But honestly I don't  see what one has to do with the other  when it comes to the sacrosanctity of reviews.....

You are an anti-Semite who stereotypes Jews and has painted them with a broad brush several times.

 
You stereotype Jews by saying they drive "late-model 2-door Cadillacs" which you refer to as a "Jew Canoe."

You paint Jews with a broad brush by saying they are "good at managing money"  and you don't know any Jews who are poor.

You stereotype generations of Jews as people who don't pay the asking price but instead negotiate or as you would say: "Jew them down."

Not only are you an anti-Semite, you are a racist against Black people as well.  You painted every member of Black Lives Matter with a broad brush by saying they all speak "ghetto" when you posted this:
"Libs in government . . . .just don't think things through before they open their mouves.  (Thought I would use the BLM plural for mouths, so I would look kind of hip . . . . . ghetto, yes, but still kind of hip.)"

would keep stalking when he knows he's on ignore.  What are you butt-hurt about this time?  Do you feel like a one-night stand, too?  Bwahahahahahaha

Let me try this a different way.  Here is a typical first message to a provider I would like to see (names have been changed to protect the guilty ;-)

"Hello Suzie -  I saw your listing on PlayBig.com and would be interested in meeting.  I am a XX year old white guy.  I'd like an hour of your time later today or tomorrow.  Please email or text......."

How do you successful mongers make your first contact to a provider who doesn't know you>

BTW, at this point the provider does not know if I have seen primarily GGs or TSs.  No identifying info has been sent.  I have no problem with screening but we are not up to that stage yet.  

Any suggestions?

Why not include your TER handle and a reference to your TER Whitelists and/or your oks on another site. I’ve done that for years to give the provider a sense of security, and I always get a response. Just my $0.02. Good luck to you.

....so I kind of plus 1 what the alias RiffRichards said.
You're not off to a horrible start but saying you're a 30-something white dude isn't telling her much of anything.
BUT she probably has about 10 other emails just like that on top of whatever else she has going on that day (other dates and life in general). Give as much as you can in the first email....don't be that guy where it takes 5-10 emails just start scratching the surface of getting the ball rolling to get her rolling your balls (gently).

As I am about to move on from what appears to be another impending trainwreck I would just like to inquire of you?  I am  giving you full credit for a  single response of six inquiries which may not be all that bad at this moment in time.  But I notice on another thread linked here that within the last 2 days you opined that you were double  (2X) scammed of deposit(s) in the last week.
  My question(s)  wow, just what are the chances of this happening......have you thought of changing hobbies,

Suzee the slut

A lot of providers ask for that kind of info (age, race) etc at first contact. A lot of providers explicitly state “no black men” or similar.  It’s a sad fact of life, not one I created.  Other ads say that any race or age accepted.  

I am older than most hobbyists. Some providers are not interested in anyone over a certain age. Others like older guys, presuming we are more mellow.  

and am usually successful.   I give my first name,  age, that I'm healthy and fit, race, and that I'm a business executive.  However, I also  give my two references, so she can check them BEFORE she responds.  If she clears me, which is usually the case, then I will ask which of my references she used so that I can later thank the lady who responded to her on my behalf.   I also suggest a specific date and time for meeting and whether I want one or two hours.  if she's busy at the time I requested, then we can negotiate an alternative.   I put all of this upfront in my first contact.  With agencies, I give a little bit less, but it still works.  For the agencies, its mainly about the references, but there still may be certain girls that work there that have qualifications regarding age, race, health, etc.  

It's unfortunate ... it's unfortunate that some ruined it for the many others by being jerks, violent, robbers, etc.  

sometimes guys are looking in weird sites, plenty of fake ads with scammers and ghosts. You need to look real professionals in serious websites with verified profiles. Run away from sites with many fake ads, you only will get nice scams.

and sometimes is the way that you do. Look the profile first, don't call if the lady wrote clearly she doesn't take calls, don't write a SMS if she doesn't accept it, try to be clear but educated. Sometimes I receive messages really rudes with no education or agressives, last minutes dates where the guy don't want to wait 30 minutes for me (maybe some people think that i can fly but no, i can't) or out of my working time (some people can't accept the fact i am a simple human).

And you will get better approach on this way.
