If its more than an hour since you left your message, I won't call you back. I would prefer to wait for you to try calling again or email me, rather than call you in the middle of a staff meeting, or call you when you are on the way to a movie with your wife in the car.

Try sending an email first, or specifcally saying in your voicemail what time is best for her to return your call.

Certain provider cities have a high "flake factor".

More and more ladies no longer book appointments via phone.

Chances of getting reply from me after submitting reservation request from my website - 100

chances of getting call back after leaving me message - 0

I you have, then just keep trying.  You'll connect with someone eventually.

A common complaint of providers is that men do not read their sites and follow their specific instructions as to what informtation is required and how to go about contacting them.

I'm very curious.  Many times, I call a provider for the first time, and politely leave my first name, and a number.  I say I'm a new client, and ask for a call back to set up an appointment.  Sometimes I call back after a day or two, when I haven't heard anything.  

About 75% of the time, I never get a call back ever.  From the other 25%, I get a good response, so I don't think I am coming across like a psycho or stalker.  

This is a bit of an issue for me, as I like the experience of "new",  so I always keep shopping, and just mix my favorites in a bit as well.

So my question to the experienced here is basically "What's the deal?".

Maybe add in your message "I have references that I can provide for screening" I bet tons of flakes call these ladies but you do deserve a call back.

Truth is most ladies probley get a 1000 calls a day(which I why I only do e-mail) If their week or day is filled up she might not call you back(I like to network even if I can't see them that week/day because you never know who could be your next new favorite client!)Or maybe she is not sure she can call you back anytime on that phone. I never like to call any of my clients unless they directly say it is ok to do so.

Just some thoughts...but who knows why girls do somethings they do?

1, Name a day and time you would like to meet. Feel free to say you have some flexibility if that time does not work for her, so give me a call to discuss it.
2. Name a length of time you would like to meet.
3. Provide some basic screening information.

I usually do not do number three, but I know providers like it when you do. If I was a provider and I had 20 phone messages, I am going to prioritize.

My friends, people I have seen before go first. Since you do not want to be one of them, that is not going to happen.
Next come the guys who I know are serious about booking something soon. That is the best position you can put yourself in.
Then come the guys who seem serious, but no idea when.
Then come the guys on fishing expeditions - maybe they just want to talk to me, maybe they want to talk dirty to me, anyway, they just want to waste my time.

Sounds like your message gets you into group three 25% of the time, and group four the rest. Suggesting a time, date and length of meeting should get you into group two most of the time, and most likely you will not get a call back only if she is unavailable on the suggested day and forgets about your message.

And just because you suggested a day and time does not mean you have to meet, or meet on that day and time - there is a discussion and mutual screening going on, as you know, and either of you can change your minds, shit happens.

No guarantees, but I think this will improve your percentage.

...I never give very much but may mention I'm a Basic Plus 4 on p411 and on Date-Check.  That should be enough to let them know I'm for real, assuming they believe me.  But I won't give out the actual profile info unless they get back to me.

Many escorts won't return your call otherwise. Also, more and more younger girls are more geared to texting than voice calls.

if you are trying to hook up with ladies who advertise on the low rent sites and / or have a phone number only, a majority of the time you will not get a call back.  Usually they only answer the phone when they do not have a client in the room with them, and that is usually six or eight five or ten minute windows a day. Many of them will "invite" several callers and let the first one there in the room (unless she has a bad feeling about him), leaving the others to arrive and call for the room number only to be neglected.

The most reliable way to make appointments is to see ladies who have their own website and who book in advance via email (or contact page, but I don't usually submit contact pages)

What do the ladies have to go on? You call or email one, and she's all 'who?'

Fuck. mrfisher, scoed, OSP(RIP!), KJ5233, romeogolf, and many more of my boys could make a date just by them sending the ladies a PM, their referrences and the fact they have board presence.

Fuck! I've set up dates cuz I know the participants that well!

I have dates set for Vegas when I go. All I have to do is say when and see if they're not busy. It's that easy.

Why? Because they pre-screened me, before I even asked to be. I'm a loud-mouthed mother-fucker on the boards, and I am soooo very picky they know what they have to do to get the scores I give them in my reviews.

There are very few here that can take advantage of NOT posting reviews. But their board presence is enough to get them dates when they feel like it. Our mods and KJ come to mind.

So, to be legit, start racking up some reviews or at least play on the boards. Get some cred going and see what happens from there.

That's free advice, though, a bottle of Crown would be greatly appreciated!

First off, thanks to everyone for the great feedback.

Ali - you hit the nail on the head. In hindsight, I should have mentioned that it happens when I only have a phone number. I will take your advice, and stop shopping in the "slums".

Thanks!
