What are your tricks to do when business is slow to bring in more clients?
Do you offer a special discount ? Do you get new pictures done? I am looking to upgrade something ... Because it's really slow for me right now! Please share your inputcouldn't "slow" be relative? Have heard a lot on here about this being a slow season.
May sound counterintuitive, but one must ask; have you done a market analysis for your locale? Am betting you already have a business model in your head. Each provider's TER profile provides a first step in this process by illustrating the "services" she is willing to offer. While of course, this is always a personal decision, with more experience, am guessing that is an area subject to refinement from time to time. How do small businesses target their clientele? Some ladies may consider changing/expanding advertising media, or traveling options. Of course am betting you have already considered all of these but just in case you have not.-- Modified on 9/6/2016 10:49:07 AM
Maybe that is one of the reasons you are slow?

Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do, it's just a slow time of year. I find just after Xmas is generally quite dead so I save the good dollars from Autumn to have time off surfing after Xmas
she didn't as how to raise her scores; your derisive comment about them was unsolicited, not germane to the discussion and thus uncalled for.
and your posting under an alias was cowardly. if you're going to insult a lady, have the balls to do it under your ter handle so the women can know whom to avoiddefinitely agree...also, have a budget and 3-6 months of money put away for bills
Before you work yourself into another White Knight lather, why don't you look at what she actually said:
"I am looking to upgrade something ... Because it's really slow for me right now! Please share your input." She was asking for ways for her not to be slower in the future. One of those ways would be to improve herself (i.e. "upgrade something") and thus that improvement could come in the form of working on her looks (better make up, haircut, clothes, etc) and possibly improve her skill set/performance. That was honest and constructive advice. Imo, improved looks and performance would help her review scores and that should lead to more emails from interested gentleman for dates, thus making the slow times less slow. She is new and thus has room for improvement does she not? And she asked for opinions. I gave her mine. Ironically, the guy with the alias made an attempt to help the OP while Mr. "See, I use MY HANDLE" guy has done NOTHING to help her out. Don't be that guybe willing to come through for you when it is slow. You don't need to discount or run specials, but a "gift" to established customers of a little OTC time for dinner or drinks after a two-hour+ session is usually welcomed as a show of appreciation by those that like to spend time with you. It always works with me with the girls I have been seeing for years. If you just tell them "it is slow and if they'd like to book a couple of hours for some naughty fun, you would be willing to go out with them to dinner afterward because you won't be scheduling anyone after them. Its not something you can normally do, but this time you can." This way, there is no expectation that this would happen again, so if they want to take advantage of the opportunity to spend more time with you, they should jump on it.
I didn't see derision or insults in DG's comments at all. I will concede it wasn't politically correct but that's ok too. She asked for ways to help her stay out of prolonged slow times and his ideas were certainly logical. Her reviews are spotty. And who among us cant improve?
The escorts are running a small business here and she did ask for other peoples "input." So his post was "solicited" and it was "germane." No need to trash the alias either. That argument usually come from the losing side.When YOU put up YOUR real info then feel free to post your crap on any handle here.
How about it BigPeter...or don't YOU have the balls to post under YOUR real name/pic?and your posting under an alias was cowardly. if you're going to insult a lady, have the balls to do it under your ter handle so the women can know whom to avoid.
How can she SAVE money, if money is not coming in....rolling eyes...is she supposed to save the lint in her pockets..
Regulars, that is a nice thought...lol, really it is, regulars have other regular ladies they see. Regulars move on, blah blah blah. Reviews, again she look and suck better, however if gents DO NOT review her and her upgrade....what is she to do then...guys don't review all the time. 1. Fresh pics take some selfies2. Tour if you can
3. Continue to give good service
4. Lots of ladies Twitter now....
Meaning a scoundrel will wrap himself in the flag as a last resort. In the same way, someone with a losing argument will try to impeach a poster by saying his use of an alias makes him less than credible.
Well, like you, I call bullshit. In my case, for reasons of my own (to reveal them would "out" myself), I choose to only post under my alias. My handle will only review and never post. This obviously protects my handle from anyone who doesn't like my posts. But my alias IS ME. It's the only way I post. So what you see is what you get. In the past, with my old handle I posted EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. So my use of an alias for posting has nothing to do with what I say or how I say it.
Yet I guarantee that WK pussies like BPJ will keep rolling out that tired old line. Even if someone posts under both a handle and an alias it's a weak argument in most cases. As you said, a handle is really an alias too, and hides the "real" person from prying eyes.
... (well for the last 2 yrs) with a pretty good civvie job the 'escort' slow periods bother me even less.
Re-writing ads or new pics or both couldn't hurt you though....maybe a site re-vamp too.It says no black men. That is a big no no. It gives guys the impression that you are provider working for a pimp. Many hobbyists are boycotting providers with those types of exclusions.
mediocre by definition is average, and average on a scale of 10 is 5, not 7.
i've opined else where on these boards that 7 is a confusing score to give because many guys hand it out with the conclusion that they had a great time and will see the provider again. in fact, all 3 of kiki's reviewers state they will see her again. so she doesn't do what you want a girl to do, so what? she didn't ask for advice on getting higher scores, she asked (the women on this board, not the guys) for advice on what to do to pick up the slow times. obviously her self-limited menu won't allow for higher scores on the ter scale, and she's happy with that. telling someone her performance is mediocre and she needs to do things she's obviously not comfortable with does not help her. sure, it makes all the bros on this board feel good that once again the stupid whores aren't getting their way because reasons, but it doesn't really address the girl's question, and you bros can contort your logic all you want but the condescending nature (and the hiding behind aliases (i'm talking to you, doc) ) shows how little you actually want to help someone who was truly asking for help

It is widely know that providers who put such statements in there ads are of low quality. Do a google search for "black mens boycott prostitutes".
I find it interesting that you are focused on getting more clients instead of getting more business from existing clients.

The guy is counter-intuitive. If he says "left" you can be certain the answer is "right." Here's a shot of wrps doin' his thang.

And I'll probably catch alot of shit but fuck it and think outside the box.....here ya go, ready???......BACKPAGE....I don't know how Backpage plays in NY but it's worth a try....Your price point and what you offer reads Backpage, sorry to say.But don't fret, better have posted on BP before so forget the stigma for now and go for it...at least for now.
as much as you want. Some people rely on themselves and their experience. There is absolutely nothing criminal to have any policy she wishes.
We need some action here. We must educate him and endulge. xo
A few ideas, contact clients you've seen and had great sessions with that haven't reviewed you and ask them for a review.
Otherwise, trying a different platform to advertise can help. In my own experience I rarely advertise and am almost afraid to, because I don't have a ton of time to contact and see clients.
Honestly the BP idea isn't a bad one, just of course screen. It won't cost a lot to advertise there, and after one appointment it can perhaps pay to put an ad somewhere more established like EROS..
Join p411 if you're not on there.
I do not ever run specials as it sets up a bad cycle. Also people who look for the discount are not really the type that are good safe clients (while there are exceptions Im sure.) know you're worth but also be fair in your pricing, instead of discounting. Its good to set something that won't make you burn out..gents should also understand girls who price themselves on clearance have to see a lot more clients and tend to be jaded and out of the buisness much faster. Again there are always exceptions to this of course. You might be better off to raise your rates as with low rates people will percive there is something not good about you, if that makes sense.
Also, never hurts to have a civvie job. That way any escort money is just gravy. I don't know you and you may have a civvie job..but just tossing out ideas. Having a schedule helps too!!
When you rely on the government, whatever government it is, you are screwed. You can listen, agree or not agree but never rely. Oh babe, you are damn sexy. xo
....BP isn't just for the budget and mid-range girls. I know more than a handful of verified ladies who charge 500hr+ minimum who use it on at least a semi-regular basis (just throwing that out there).

How do they verify potential suitors via BP? (I post pics on BP to link to TER but am hesitant about meeting people who contact me from BP only)
-- Modified on 9/7/2016 7:52:35 PM
It is widely known and stated on those boards. You don't see it on TER because most TER providers don't have those restrictions on there ads or websites.
i'm on a whole different coast than the op. never even heard of her until this thread.
that doesn't preclude the preference for civility among strangers. if someone derided you when you asked a legitimate question sophia i would do the same.I did...and it came up as empty as your head.
My God....can you please post something, anything remotely positive for once. It must suck to be so NEGATIVE all the time.He's "that guy" who either has been there, seen it, done it, or knows someone who has.
All from the confines of public housing in West Baltimore.Dude you really are talking out of your ass. Ladies have every right to chose who they do and do not see.
You've been peddling that lame ass excuse for quite some time and it has never been proven. If you want to see low quality and have pimps....look at your list of reviews. It oozes LOW QUALITY and your score confirm it. http://www.theeroticreview.com/reviews/searchbyreviewerResults.asp?MemberName=wrps07Bullcrap. You've been spreading this rumor for months with absolutely ZERO proof. Or is this info on one of your many spread sheets you compiled?
WRPS07 has some conspiracy theory in his little pea sized brain. He's been on the kick of Providers who don't see AA men and he's worn it out like a pair of 8 year old shoes. Soon he will have the Black Lives Matter movement protesting outside TER's office.....and only he knows where the office is.
It does no such thing. A woman is free to see who she wants based solely on personal preference. She has her reasons and you should abide by them. There are NO hobbyists boycotting anything due to that issue.
It's a conspiracy theory inside your head and based solely on your reviews...you only see fat ugly back page ho's with a life expectancy of a fly in a honey factory anyway. Most women would not see you based solely on your need for the rate to be $40-$50 max. You admitted to me via PM that you are a bargain basement shopper and are out for quantity and no quality.
