What do you think of gals who tour a lot? Why do some girls tour a lot anyways?

Dear Madam Alexandra:
Perhaps the reason that women tour is because in major cities the men would make more money and have more disposable income. Also the reason that they could tour a lot is because maybe the unemployment rate could be higher where they live and the hobbyist there don't earn enough to see her on a regular basis to where it would be beneficial to her to reach her financial and economic goals. Although the reasons are vast and varied, I am almost willing to bet that those would be the top two for those who live in blue collar cities and states.

One of the three (soon to be four) providers I've seen tours constantly. She has about 200 excellent reviews here on TER.  

and said many great, reputable gals do do that...

One reason for what you do is creating happy men population ... I once lived in a small town in Midwest.  I found the number and choices of providers are very limited.  I can not remember the exact number, but there were less than 5 providers known to me in a town of about 100,000, and there was only one provider I wanted to see. I had some business travels and had to connect flights at major cities like Chicago and Minneapolis/St Paul.  I always created that layover opportunities for myself to see some big city providers.

I hate it when I can't see a local favorite because she's off touring somewhere.

A provider may tour to sight see, but it is primarily to make money. Not all providers can make an adequate living by staying at home. It also doesn't mean that they can't hold down local customers. There may not be enough locals for a small town provider to make a good living.

Then some providers are just more adventuresome  then others. Not everyone wants to stay home and be bored with the same old johns.

Yes, I do see touring providers on occasion.    

I enjoy seeing touring providers. As to why they tour, I was told by one touring provider ,that she had a large extended family where she lived, and also had a good job. . She felt more comfortable providing out of town.  

You can't have too much variety.

there are VERY few states and cities I have not toured, and I think that we are incredibly lucky to have the ability to travel and make money.  I just got back from a 4.5 month tour; I drove from NC (where I live) through the south, up the California coast all the way to Portland, OR and back.  I went to every National Park along the way, as well as a huge variety other cool places - Paramount Studios, Fisherman's Wharf, the Grand Ole Opry, Country Music Hall of Fame, the Alamo, etc. - and it was all paid for as I went.  It was an awesome time.  

I would bet is why. As hobbyists, we have become accustomed to variety that is available in this hobby like nowhere else. A highly rated touring lady can move instantly to the top of the list, knowing I can see locals whenever it is convenient.  
On her part, an adventurous lady can tour the US and have all costs covered by meeting new friends.

I used to tour for 4-5 days, then take 10 days off. Now, I just stay home and see less clients but it's more money. I had to change my rates every time I traveled, so this is easier now. I must admit though, I do miss hopping on a plane every other week to visit a new and exciting city, but it does not always work out that way. For instance, if you ONLY toured to visit the bucket list of destinations you would love to see, you might not make a profit. You have to go where the demand is there for what YOU provide, and for how you look, and that might be fkin North Dakota lol.  

That's awesome, Natasha!!! How exciting! I have been toying with the idea of touring a bit myself. I do have responsibilities that mean I could never be gone too long, but I could definitely swing a long weekend somewhere. Your post is inspiring.

No matter who they are.  The whole concept just feels to much like a high volume revolving door to me.

Those two things just don't connect for me.  There is no correlation I know of between touring and high volume.  In fact, in my experience, touring girls tend to be higher end and lower volume.

it's bad enough that the local ladies have to deal with competition among themselves, but add the touring providers that come through here.

For mos of us, that would never work. It takes me at least 2 months to plan a tour. Touring does not make one any more high volume, than they could be at home. In fact, just the opposite. Do you honestly think 20 guys are all going to have money the same 3-4 days a provider decides to visit x city? LMAO...nope. Most ladies RAISE their rates whilst touring, making it even harder to see MORE clients. I know women who can see 10 guys a week staying home, and might only see half that on a tour, because not all guys are booking those same days she is in town. Trust me...touring providers spend a lot of time in their hotel rooms alone, and seeing the town. They are not staring at the ceiling all day, at least that has always been my experience.  

I agree.

I agree with this 100 percent! I have ALWAYS done better in small towns with less competition. Guys are more willing to break that "nothing above 300 an hour" bs, when they have nothing to fk until the touring gals come through. I was charging over 400 in freaking Alabama!

I guess they do have a certain collectors value  

I stay with the local gal; however, when I travel I look up the local gal. So I guess I'm the one that likes to tour.

Touring was fun for me at one time, but then the novelty wore off and I started to dislike sleeping in hotel beds so much. There's no place like home (for me).

You just said the magic words.... "You Like to travel"  It's a beautiful choice to be able to make money and enjoy the world.. Before we get old and not able too. Or become ill. Enjoy today as if its yoru last... smile it's contagious.  

and many love me long time.

I like to take advantage of the fact that my profession doesn't require me to sit in the same room 40 hours a week. Sometimes I put up an ad when I'm on the road, sometimes I don't. It mostly depends on whether or not English is the main language spoken and if the average rate for girls is one I'm comfortable with. Also, NYC gets COLD during the winter- I'd much rather be in Hawaii!

one in the morning, one in the afternoon or evening. By driving (not flying) and staying in 3 star hotels I am easily able to stay low volume on tour.  Also, I often stay at extended stay hotels (Residence Inn, for example) where I can cook my own food and save the cost of eating out.  Really, it's not hard.  Your assumption that touring girls must be high volume is wrong.

I tour a month off a month on. I love the free time I have without  when I come home from tour. It's nice to be able to take a month off at a time.. I hit the whole Midwest including the Dakotas... Remember being on tour cost some major $$ so the holding down regulars thing isn't necessarily true.

He pay for three day lol.

Very well stated! The assumption that touring girls are high volume is a common misconception. I will not see more than three a day when on tour, but usually only 2 multi-hour. I don't fly and drive everywhere, so it keeps my costs down, and I can change cities if the one I am in slows down, or I just feel like stopping somewhere else on my way home.  

.... and at first I thought it might be a waste because it limits whether or not I could visit with her again if I enjoyed the sessions. But what I found out is that it sort of opened up another fun aspect of the hobby in that I'm now anticipating her next visit back. I can get an update via twitter or e-mail and then start planning to be available at that same time.

I have few options in my area, so touring providers are great! The only problem is I live a few hours away from NYC, which tends to result in NYC pricing. My area has a high cost of living because of NYC, but we're far enough from NYC that salaries don't really reflect it. Sucks, but I have few options. Oh well.

Touring can be a lot of fun. The trick is to start by doing it the way that you are doing it. Build up your clientele a little at a time so that when you visit a city you can count on a specific amount of income and then add other cities as you do.
