Plans and Booking!

I've had several people—including those I have seen before—reach out to make elaborate plans for multi-day bookings, only to never follow through. I refer to these individuals as "The Dreamers." The wasted time, mental energy, and emotional exchange involved in getting excited about a major booking that goes nowhere is no longer worth it for me. To protect my peace and my business, I have implemented a $200 Sincerity Fee to begin discussing or planning any future dates.

The Policy:

The fee is required upfront to start the coordination process.

The $200 is applied toward the booking total once confirmed.

The fee is forfeited if the client flakes or fails to commit.

I believe this filter is necessary to ensure that only serious clients are taking up space on my calendar. It’s a simple way to make sure that if my time is being used, it’s being respected.

I am wondering how others feel about this and what are your thoughts on it?

your policy doesn't seem unreasonable and might be workable for someone with the solid reputation you have. But I wouldn't do this with just anyone. They'd have to have the kind of history you've got.

I think this it is a nice idea in theory but I honestly don’t think many guys will go for it. I feel like 50% of the time it’s like pulling teeth to get deposits even. For some reason some guys think we are willing to risk our entire reputation over taking their $100. 😅 Some clients are amazing about it and much love to them. 🫶 I hope it works for you though 🩷 Maybe it’s just me 😭😂

It really depends what your end goal is. I would say that's a sure fire way to lose potential new clients. If I cannot even ask you questions without paying a fee, I'm out. I don't care how good your reputation is. Having some potential customers not follow through is a part of business. Imagine getting charged a fee because you had questions at a car dealership, clothing store, or a restaurant.

 
Perhaps your established clients or some who are dying to see you might roll over. But, if I had to guess, you run the risk of even losing some of them. But if your only goal is to not be bothered by flakes, or at least be compensated for your time, you will get your wish.

 
I would argue that you getting your hopes up is part of the problem. You're not being realistic. In fact, you're as much living a dream as they are if you get excited so quickly. You have been around long enough to know better. People flaking is not a new thing.

As you know, I don’t have any issues with deposits. However, what you’re asking for here feels more like a consultation fee rather than a good faith down payment on a date we have both already verbally agreed to. I understand your frustration, but I can’t imagine many men would be willing to pay that, though I could certainly be wrong.
.
What I would suggest instead is that once you reach the point where you feel someone is just becoming a time waster, that’s when you politely require a deposit before continuing with any further questions, ideas, or planning.
.
Just my perspective QB, but in any field, a client should be extended the basic courtesy of asking a question or two upfront. At that point, it’s on them to make a big boy decision and either commit to you or walk away.  
.
In your specific case, there is more than enough info about you online, and since it is stellar, the whole process with you should take even less time to see if he is a good match with you then he would wit most other women who may have much less info about themselves available to poetential clients. :)

It doesn't sound like it would apply to a simple email with some questions but maybe Bia can clarify that and let us know at what point would the "sincerity fee" apply.

 
She also mentioned that the fee would be applied to the cost of the session but would it count towards the deposit since it would be paid up front?

Yeah this is an easy no for me. And not just a no it's an out of the way recommendation for other mongers to never do this.

 
I mean what's next, a fee to reply to a providers post on here?

It's hard for me to relate this to other service providers.  The only thing I can compare would be like a plumber, electrician, or whatever, requesting a paid estimate.

For me, that's a hard pass.  I've had a lot of experiences with pro trades, and every one came on site and provided a free estimate.  If they didn't offer that, I moved onto the next one.

With this said, I am like QB, in that I'm honest and reliable.  If I start the process, then I will follow through and not jerk someone around. But, that means I've gotten the 'estimate' and signed the contract.  The time involved providing the free estimate, IMO, is part of doing business.

Look at you with the free idea for QB.

I love everything about this! It would be awesome if this became an industry standard. We've let time wasters get away with too much for too long. The bullshit ends now.

Deposits are only paid once the booking is confirmed. This sounds like a payment to even discuss a booking, particularly extended bookings that require more conversation. A lot of fantasy bookers and time wasters will spend several hours, days, or weeks conversing with you about a FMTY or multi-day type of session that they have zero intention of really planning.

I've had this happen to me a few times, but they weren't even about extended bookings. Time wasters will text me claiming that they're coming to DC a month+ out and ask me a bunch of questions, tell me a bunch of things about themselves, text me leading up to the date about how excited they are, make small talk with me, etc., and then cancel 2 or go ghost at the last minute.  

Some weirdos just get off on communicating with sex workers and wasting their time. Bia's idea is phenomenal. If a client is really serious about a multi-day booking (which is going to be very costly for a provider like Bia), he should have no problem paying a $200 sincerity fee. This should honestly be an industry standard.

Do you book FMTYs and multi-day dates? This is not something she plans to do for general 1 hour incalls and the like. Some men get off on communicating with a sex worker like they're friends and making up elaborate plans that they have no intention of ever bringing to fruition. We do not have time for the bullshit. If you're serious about a multi-day booking that will likely cost you five figures, you should have no problem putting down $200 to show that you're not playing games. This is gold, I don't care what anyone says.

Are you booking FMTYs and multi-day dates with high end providers? This is not something that the majority of clients who only book 1 hour incalls have to worry about. If a gentleman is truly serious about booking a session that will likely run him close to $10k if not more, he shouldn't have a problem paying a $200 sincerity fee. Providers simply don't have time for games and charging is the only way to stop that.

Selling or sales are are as old as business and a required part of commerce.  When times are good sales people get lazy and can just get by, When slow downs happens ( that always happen ) the lazy people suffer a lot while those who have followed good business practices and kept their customer close will thrive. Providers are sole proprietorships and will rise and fall by their actions and sales efforts. I have experienced this over many years of ups and downs in my own business. Don't be lazy and blow off new business, you never know what's coming. Take the time to pre Qualify any new prospect. This may take a bit of work or time. If they are for sure time wasters dump them. But treasure the many good ones you will find if you work a bit.

To be fair, she said the fee was for any future dates. If she said it was to discuss details of extended dates, what you say might play. But any implies that even a one hour romp would require this new fee.

I only make plans I intend to carry out…and I don’t believe in deposits. I do believe in fair payment for “work completed”, including tips for superior service! ‘Nuff said! I have cancelled one session in ten years due to an unavoidable emergency! One other time, an emergency came up, but I had time for a quick bbbj, before making full payment and scooting in 15 minutes. Sh@& happens!

I do basically agree with you whole paragraph but at the same time if contacting for an hour or two appointment a few days out ( do not feel this is what she is talking about) wouldn’t consider it at all -should it  not be necessary.

If trying to g to workout details of let us say a weekend tryst would understand her need and also a need for a booking fee to block the time.  
Would I do the second with a random phone number on Tryst- not only no but F—- no.

It is as much your fault the time wasters are getting away with things.  
When they start negotiating on first contact has it gotten better ???

No, I do not book fytm or multi hour sessions.

"This is not something she plans to do for general 1 hour incalls and the like"  

 
Where did you get this from? Projection?  

Let's quote the op

"have implemented a $200 Sincerity Fee to begin discussing or planning any future dates.

The Policy:
The fee is required upfront to start the coordination process.
The $200 is applied toward the booking total once confirmed.
The fee is forfeited if the client flakes or fails to commit."

 
Where does it say anything about multi hour or fytm?  

 
It clearly states, in English language, that ANY future dates will incur this fee.  

Yes it includes one hour appts because of how the word ANY works in English language.  

Either bia couldn't word her policy properly, or you are projecting here.

I assume she’s referring to more elaborate bookings because she referenced fantasy bookers contacting her about multi-day sessions at the beginning of this post. As a full service provider myself, I know how much lower the stakes are for a 1 hour booking and how time wasters love to overpromise and underdeliver.

It’s certainly your business, but Sincerity Fee seems like a pre-deposit. Why not just raise your deposit rate by $200?

I assume you don’t block anything on your calendar until you confirm a deposit, or plane tix, or a fancy hotel or spa resy?

I think you’re a deposit gal and incentivize gents for pre-pays, both of which I’m a repeated fan of.

Not sure how you enforce this? If it costs $200 just to submit a booking form on your website, yes I think you’ll quickly reduce time wasters, but you may also shrink repeat gents.

If you’re having tons of repeat clients who waste your time by text or email, I’d say there’s room for improvement in your pipeline.

There’s huge backlash over tipping culture now. Your plan has nothing to do with tipping, but ‘yet more fees’ is a real thing and getting worse, balance carefully.

"to make elaborate plans for multi-day bookings" was in the lead sentence.

 
While I agree it's a pretty ridiculous idea - I cannot think of any industry that requires a payment before even starting to talk I say let them post those requirements on their ad sites. Show what they think and how they will behave in my view. I suspect most here would just read that and decide it's not someone they want to see or do business with so will just move on.

It was in the lead sentence but the policy doesn't have anything about it. We are discussing the policy not the lead sentence.

Maybe but I think one can read both the post (to me she seemed to be suggesting the post was about the situation she specifically mentioned but other may see it different) and her site either way, thought the site is more clear -- seems to say if you're contacting her with an appointment time the suggested fee doesn't apply. Based on her posts I assume only her usual deposit applies but that does seem to be something different.

 
I'll let those who are interested in seeing her work out all the details and get clarification on their own. Maybe someone will come back to explain that they provided a day and time for their appointment and that was not available and further discussion required the sincerity fee but I'll let those fact speak if and when they become facts.
