I am an ambassador from Planet Mangina on the subject of hobbling being a business for the girls. I mean, obviously it is - some enjoy it more than others, and that's great. Sometimes I love my job and sometimes I don't.  

But it's got to cut both ways. When I reach out to express interest in an appointment, and especially when I give out verification information up front, PLEASE respond in a timely manner. I don't mean within an hour, but I should hear back one way or the other within a day.  Given the nature of our business, and if you're serious, should be less than that.  

Set up an automated email response, if that works. Remember, if I contact you it means I've learned enough to be interested in spending money. In my line of work people who approach me in that mode get my attention.  

Obviously I am not talking about those who do, in fact, respond in a professional way. And I get it, if you haven't been reviewed in the last six months you may well be taking a break. But please remember most of us are NOT millionaires, $$$$ or $$$ is a lot of money. (And I'll also note that I haven't raised my own hourly rate in five years, there is still a major recession going in.).  

I'll admit that this is driving me nuts because I've been traveling lately.  Independents, you're losing my business to agencies (see the pattern of my reviews). Not crazy about agencies, really, but the good ones communicate effectively.

just suggested another guy choose an agency when he was having this same issue. I don't work a lot so when I get clients, they are responded to asap, but I am always on the net or my phone lol. People want to bitch about not making the money they used to, but they take 12 hours to respond. A Hard C*ck does not like to wait on anyone. I get this, and if I can't see a person I always refer 2 other ladies I know who can.

I want to play more, so I will jump up for a client who is easy to verify, but if I am not available I refer them to my twin, ory other provider friends.  I can understand your frustration.

If you really want to see an independent, in my experience you need to start out with the idea that it may take up to three attempts to get a reply. To a degree, it always feels to me like I am selling as much as buying through a lot of the process. I have not looked at the percentages, but I am pretty sure I get replies to less than 50% of my initial inquiries. The funny thing is that I only follow up with less than 1 in 3 of the ladies I initially contacted if I do not hear back. Turns out I was not that interested anyway.

Should it be that difficult to get a working provider to take your money? Ideally, no, but practically that is how it works, and there are good as well as bad reasons for that. I will let others talk about the management challenges and all the bullshit inquiries providers get.

I do tend to have less patience with expensive (400 and up) providers who do not reply than less expensive (300 or less) ones. I figure that the former are likely to be prima donnas, while the latter are more likely to be disorganized semi-pros. Fair? Probably not, but that is my reaction.

As has been discussed here before, the failure to reply causes us to do things that providers may not like, such as reaching out to multiple providers so as to be sure we secure a date, and then we end up wasting someone's time in addition to our own. My number one favorite, however, is when I send an email asking a lady if we can meet, and get no reply, then an ad goes up an hour later advertising her availability at exactly the time I wanted to meet. A close second is when I respond to an ad, asking to meet on a day she just posted, and the reply comes back that she is not available that day in that location. Shit happens, I guess.

Anyway, I used to get frustrated, but by now I am used to it. Very few of the ladies are good businesspeople, and I am not sure the overall experience would be better if that changed.

All very well said.

So your rant is that some hookers need to be better at customer service? Is that really the shit you're slinging here? What a fucking brilliant observation. What business or industry on this planet can THAT not be said about?

Some gals are awesome at it. Some good. Others average. Some suck at it. (Pun intended) Some REALLY suck at it. So?  

Many Fortune 500 companies botch customer service all day, every day. Ever call your mortgage company? Your insurance company? Cable company? How does that work out for ya? And those fuckers are all TRAINED in customer service. Not too many Hooker Customer Service Improvement seminars that I am aware of out there.  

Many of these girls only have a high school diploma and some not even that. None of them at 10 years old said they wanted to grow up to be a hooker. They did so for many, many different reasons. Some of those reasons are that they had no other alternative, or at least they felt that way. Some of these girls are alcoholics, some are addicted to drugs, some have been mentally or physically abused or raped. Some suffer from depression and other psychological disorders.

And then there are girls who just dont treat this like a business. Believe it or not, it's a "hobby" to them too. A paid hobby to be sure, but a hobby none the less. They do it part time, here and there, checking there email 1-2 times a week. Or they have young children or other obligations to cause them not to be responding to you at your heart's desrire.

In other words, there are tons of reasons why every hooker that you grace with your session request email in their inbox doesn't get back to you in a timely fashion.  

In my experiences, these girls, by and large, do a fucking fantastic job. Isnt that why we are all here? Best fucking hobby there is.  

So stop your bitchin', be appreciative that there are so many hot ass chicks out there to choose from, and when girl #1 doesnt get back to you in a timely manner, give some thought to my reasons above, and contact girl #2 on your list. Just that simple

LR,

You need to teach a Provider 101 course.  

It could go something like this.  Today's topic will be "Responding Time.  A Hard C*ck does not like to wait on anyone .................."

I always appreciate a quick response when I'm trying to make appointments.  However, I understand their personal life comes first and then emails.  I counter it by just emailing a bunch of providers and whoever responds first get's my business

END OF MESSAGE

Let me suck your pussy til you cream on my face.
