I suggest to keep it positive on the few advertising channels that you have left.  I opened Twitter this morning and read post after post of ladies complaining about a range of issues with clients (rate changes, insufficient support . . .  .  It's just not a flattering look.  The worst ones I blocked.

I know that many of the ladies are beyond frustrated but it is counterproductive to bitch openly about a handful of bonehead hobbyists and it does nothing to help you attract new clients.  The lectures will change no ones behavior except to push good hobbyists elsewhere.

Just my perspective and just saying.

All,

 
To both clients and providers. Take a moment, breath, and just stay a bit calm. A few things to consider.

 
All of this not the end of the world. Escorting been around long before internet and will be long after even these changes.

 
This business evolve over time just like any other business. The difference between now and 20 years ago is the internet and the speed or fast of how things evolve. What took a year to evolve before now takes a month since the everyone is globally connect.  

 
All while you see business adapt you will see new businesses created. My english not perfect but I will take time to try to explain.  

First you will see businesses feel they can adapt. TER is perfect example. They make changes that they feel keep their risk minimal. As they see risk change their model will change. and adapt again.  

 
Second you will see some of those those that try to adapt simply reach a limit. Their business model can no longer adapt, they think there is no way to continue and they will shut down. This is possible for the few that still remain. In fact IMO I think it very likely you will see all shut down under their current business model structure. We have already seen many simply close doors as they feel cannot adapt.  

 
Finally you will see birth or innovation of new sites and full adapt of any of the few that still remain. These sites will have  business model that insulate the risk. This takes time, cannot be done unless you are genius in a few days. You must give time to allow these structures to be built. What took months or even years in the past can take hours by the internet. Give them time. All of these adapting and new sites must have sound minimal risk business structure and plan. That is not as easy as said to do.

 
The greatest , largest, factor in this is the money. This business be it AD sites or Review Sites or both make a lots of money and someone somewhere wants that money. Already we see some innovation and changes. We will see lots more. This is not going change overnight. Each of us must learn to adapt as well. Take the emotions out of problem as difficult it is.  

 
This is so much important to providers. For you that clients, you can easily find to control your needs in a temporary manner. For so many providers this could make bad changes in their lives. So many providers live with little to no savings, and they have many significant personal life challenges. That be said, they will adapt just as clients adapt. I am not say this for you to pity providers, i am just saying this so to recognize that for some the emotions run strong.  

 
Many are scare. This is the negative reaction you are seeing. All are smart enough to make decision who is BSC comments and who is not. This may even help shape decisions of who clients will add to their see in future lists.  

 
Give this time. Changes are coming but allow them time. Over time everything changes. And over time everything adapts.  

 
Just my 02 cent

I understand people are upset at the changes ... best to be proactive than reactive

I'm rarely talking about what's been going on. It doesn't help. What helps me is doing what I am able about it.

Twitter tends to have girls who vent... even about the few bonehead guys who drive us nuts.

I see no purpose in tweeting about it. The guys I see aren't boneheads. They don't need to be taught how to act. All it does unintentionally is make it seem like the tweeter isn't happy... even if they are overall happy.  

Same can be said about joining in on trainwrecks on twitter. Fighting doesn't always look good. I speak up when I can't bite my tongue. Majority of time I try to ignore. At any given moment, it's easy as heck to stumble across arguments on there.  

I've been watching all the dividing going on.... it's pretty stupid if you ask me. Time to stick together. I guess some will figure that out once it's too late.

Separating the wheat from the chaffe.

I try to keep my twitter lighthearted and enticing. I want the gentleman  to stay there for awhiIe and hopefully enjoy his visit. I was tempted to post about my anger in this whole government take down but thought perhaps being negative on my part wasn't good. I do search twitter for all the info on other accounts to see what safety net ladies are talking about. I appreciate their help and info but gentlemen may not.

Around these days, it shall pass. Just wait to see how things adjust and we would adjust as well!
