Is it her marketing of herself or her reviews?  Please take into account that she a good looking woman. Does she actually start high or increase as her REVIEWS starting spelling out that she truly is worth it.

if she is new she may want to start lower and raise her rates as stellar reviews come in. I've seen a lot and I've only done this under 2 years. That's why it's always fun to research and find a provider wuth great reviews but not a lot so she is stil fairly UTR. Also check the reviewers history so you can be satisfied they aren't fake reviews and as alway backchanel.

If she has a rate where she's too high, she'll have nobody booking. If she has one that's too low, she'll have everyone in the universe calling. The provider is going to find a happy medium in there that lets them book about the number of appointments they want per day.

Stuff like good reviews might give her a reason to up the rates, or terrible reviews might be an incentive to lower, since the reviews also affect the number of bookings she gets. The same goes for how good looking she is - more people will try to book with a 9 than a 2. Just about anything that affects her number of calls/bookings would affect her rate in the same way.

and then raised their prices.  Some of them are on your blog, including CSJ, Rasha and Destiny, among others.  As for the final price, it's not just what the market will bear.  It's also a marketing/volume decision.  Take Rasha, for example, who recently doubled her price to $1,000/hr. If she can gross the same amount and see half the number of guys, it's a good deal for her.  That's especially true if her volume is the same and her revenues double.  But that's all something she can manage.  
Where that rationale falls apart is if a girl mis-judges the market and does not generate enough business at the higher rate.  Having seen Rasha, I doubt that will happen to her.

It depends on local supply & her availability in particular.  A lot of part-time & low volume (might be in school or have a day job) have limited availability.  
A lot depends on her money needs.  This is HER business & HER business plan.  It's really none of our business.  
If she charges too much her volume might drop.  If she's making enough $$ maybe that's ok.  If she prices herself out of the market, she'll have to rework her plan.  
That she would be attractive is a given...  or she'd not likely meet success.  Stunning beauty can support higher rates...  if the service level is also high.  Often it does not, so it's a trade off between the attractiveness & say a CBJ instead of BBBJ (all other things being equal.)

It's better to start with a high price; you'll attract the right clients if you advertise correctly, have a great website and great photos.

There's more than one way to skin a cat, but that's how I see it.

rates always vary wildly..from the 200-300 backpage girls to the 1000 + porn star babes..once you find the rate you are booked solid at..you can always raise it to meet demand..if you are not getting booked..you will have to lower it..it is all trial and error..the supply will always be there..finding the right rate to meet demand is the tricky part..the girls are here to make money..not lose it..

Presentation and provider referrals.

Keep in mind that these providers don't pop up out of nowhere.
Most of them were "brought in" by another quality provider.
This provider can recommend her clients to see her, link to her website, and if they like what they see, they can book.

Like the previous thread below. Looks are NOT All. She can be a "10" in looks in anybody's book.  But as a "newbie" she IS competing against more experienced ladies in her market. She should look at her compeitors (very easy to do - look at websites, TER reviews). She should "price" herself just below these comparable ladies (This is "Marketing 101" - Duh!). Once she gets reviews, and gets more name recognition on TER and the Hobby world in general she can do a price increase. She can aways "grandfather" some good "regulars" for a limited time. So many ladies unfortunately start out too high as newbies. You need to establish your "product/service" in the marketplace first.

Whatever she thinks she is worth and can get.

Supply and demand is another economic myth that doesn’t quite apply to anything these days. Todays market is rigged like hell.

what I do, don't include half the perks I offer at a reasonable rate. Sex and looks only take you so far, and the same women claiming to be "Elite," can't even spring for a suite, cook a decent meal, or have at least 'one' private incall? Hmmm...

Women who have another income, can charge what they want...end of story. If they get one call a WEEK, they are happy with that. For others, might be 3 calls a week, and others 3 calls a day. It's called equilibrium.


I think it is the total package for some, and for others, guys with money will pay to fk someone hot even if she has no brain at all. I started at a much lower rate, offering no gfe, and not nearly the perks I do now. I moved up to the rate I charge today, but if you look at my area, that is like charging 1000 in NYC. Not many girls can make that on a consistent basis, and we all know my ass barely works bwahahahaha.

Yep...right on the money. I refer out my clients to many women only charging half of what they paid me, but they pay MY rate to the women I refer. Word of mouth goes a long way with a certain UTR group of guys.

Yep, and "commands" is not the same as "demands." If you are always bragging about how hot you are, how other providers are "beneath you" because they can't or don't charge as much, etc. guys can't stand that. You can be a total bitch and still be humble...meh.

It's actually the law of supply and demand.  Her rate should be high enough to provide the amount of income she needs while working the amount of dates she likes.  However she must develop her image and reputation in a manner that creates demand for her services in potential clients.

1. I saw a provider that was charging $$$$$ for an hour appointment.A year or so later, she was charging $$$.There was NO difference in the quality of the experience.

 
2. I saw another provider that was charging $$$.5 for an hour. Six months later, she was charging $$$$.5 per hr. Again, there was NO difference in quality.

 
I don't pay much attention to the marketing/advertising aspect of a provider because most of what is written does not match the experience. Reviews? I really ony use them to ensure it's not a B&S

The second example is odd. If you go up on your rates, your service should go up as well, and I am not talking just offering greek or cim for the extra money, but a better location, maybe more time, better choice of beverages and snacks, etc. I just can't see how one could justify a rate increase, when nothing but that increases.

The no condom girls can get more money and do.  Looks, services offered, and reviews all determine rates.  Age is not a huge factor unless a chick is really old.

I started on the high side for my area from day one.  I wanted a certain clientele and that is who I marketed to, from the very first day.  I figure it's a lot easier to lower rates than to raise them.  People fuss over a 50 cent increase in milk.  I'm sure a $50 increase here will hit many hard.  So I just didn't market to those gentlemen to begin with, if that makes sense.

I picked my rate by researching my direct competition: Women in my age bracket and body style.  That week there were 2 women with better bodies charging more and 1 woman charging less who I felt my body was much better than.  So, I only considered 3 women direct competition to begin with.  I just split it down the middle and placed my rates in between them.

Now, I am being told by 90% of my clientele I am not charging enough.  So I am considering raising my rates.  But, honestly, I'm nervous about doing so.

The only time I can justify this is volume control or expenses have gone up.  Gas prices rise, hotel costs rise, condoms go up, stockings have recently gotten more expensive.  Things you don't think about.   Then my rates have to increase also.  The same as any other product or service on the face of this earth.  Tell a plumber he can't charge more because the service hasn't changed.  He will laugh... all the way to the bank.  The difference is ultimately you can do without my services but if you need a plumber, you need a plumber.  But you get my point.   I am considering raising my rates for volume control.  I'm not 100% sure yet, though.

If your rates go up because of YOUR expenses, what incentive does he have for paying more and getting the very same thing? That is the point. I get that this is not a need, and yes they can see someone else...but, do you want them to? You have to have something that makes YOU more appealing than the next girl who is charging less, and often times it is not the sex, but all the other things men look for in more mature providers.

I picked the charge for the area.  I charge more in certain areas.  Like I said, I'm told I'm not charging enough.  I offer a premium service.  I do not feel that I offer anything less.  That is if you are into what I offer.  If not, that's a different story.

what I hear over and over is they "connect" with me better than other providers.  They can talk to me.  And the sex is good.  But the sex doesn't seem to be as important to them when it's all said and done.
