I saw a great provider, who has since retired, 4 times over roughly 6 years. She had raised her rate by 300, but never charged me more than the original amount from when we met. She wouldn't hear of it. To me that's just badass.

How many of you providers out there Grandfather in existing clients at your original price when you raise rates

Some grandfather their rates, some don't.
I've seen providers who grandfather their rates, but only for a certain amount of time.
For example, she'll let you see her at her old rate for up to a year or so. After that, you'll have to pay her new rate.

If you only saw her once, don't expect to get grandfathered.
It's typically for regular clients, or clients who have seen the provider recently and want to repeat.

I will grandfather when I am ahead and doing well. If I am tired and falling behind. And there sleety of new clients willing to pay my full rate I have to survive as much as I d love to be every ones fav n friend n cut deals for every one. At some point you may have to sometimes not answer the calls of the guys wantn deals and answer calls for guys that can pay the full rate. If your rent is over due and your broke n your dead set on being loyal and grand fathering. I grand father if I can. If I can't n a, workn toward a goal and the appts at new rate are Rollin in and no ones colainin or questioning it and hey to pay me what I want no I won't grandfather. If I am falling behind there's been times I be had to say no n take the calls at higher donations. I know I don't have un unlimited well of energy for sessions. This week I did two dates last weekend n haven't done more since......depends on how much energy you have to spare and what you need to survive. I have made mistake of lowering rates too much before too and got burnt out hurt and fell behind over it. Not fun.  
I think if u can grandfather n see the regulars great. If your in this to make as much as possible pay off student loans buy your fake tits n retire, and not doing it to make friends. You probly will not grandfather. Or flinch when u move on to clients now dropping double or triple and working less . If your in this to be every ones friend n make every one happy all the time. You just may get eatin alive .and come out with empty hands n nothin to show for all the sacrifices u made. Surely a lot of women forfeit personal relationships n things because this may interfere or just be too draining.

That's crap.  Time to move on when women get greedy and don't appreciate your past business.

I was meaning I am getting same price from a year ago. I'm what you would call great grandfathered. Lol

And I would like to add that many ladies adhere to this when a client who has been grandfathered in still asks for more time or less money for the same services. Some people are just so rude and greedy.

Like the guy who wanted to see me at the rate he paid me eight years ago the one time we met, and then wanted an OTC dinner afterwards so that we could "catch up"... or the fella that I see once every year for a 90-min who thinks he is a regular and should simply just pay his 2006 rate for an FBSM session even though he's constantly pushing for a companion session, and again, wants to stay long to catch up because we have such wonderful rapport... or my favorite, the guy who met me during a "new client special" and decided on his own that that would be his rate the next time he saw me...  

Sometimes refusing to grandfather is about gently firing clients.

Often ladies start with lower pricing to get their names out there.  As they learn the ropes, get good at what they do, improve their skill sets, get a reputation for reliability and quality service, their demand enables them to raise their rates... In most cases, overhead simply goes up over time, not down.  Everyone deserves a raise now and then.

I have used selective grandfathering to do just that.  My point being, those types of situations are not all that unusual, and deciding not to grandfather can have many reasons... A sense of entitlement from clients being one of them.

I might grandfather a client who has 1. been loyal, or 2. is a good client. Someone I won't grandfather is usually a guy who has become more demanding or who's tastes now do not reflect my own and it is a way to actually deter him from seeing me.

Who is grateful for her generosity and doesn't do what some do and spoil it for the rest. Good for you!

Don't give me too much credit. I think she was just a great girl

Is if I am super secure and content with my group of regulars. If I realize I am booking new clients weeks in advance. Only to miss a call comin in last min from a regular I really like. That's when I know I need to raise my rate and make sure I am available for the reliable regulars I am also having good time with. Then I will get bored again and change them again. I always do.

Since I have been around a long time lol  

I have only grandfathered clients who have repeated with me on a regular basis before the rate increase..  

for example if the guy has seen me every week, month etc... He will be grandfathered.  

But if I saw the guy one time over a year ago, and then he calls me after the rate increase, well that guy would not be grandfathered
