This is just out of curiosity, but many ladies provide so much information, from rates to location, etc, on their website, only to be asked for it all by text or email? Wouldn't it be easier to check her site than waiting for a response to know whether you can afford her?  

I check her website, her P411, her TER profile and they have conflicting information. So I ask!

It's like working with the "general public'  in ... general. LOL At a flower shop, guy walks up to counter, "Hey, you guys got plants here?"
Some of it feels like that to me we all become zombies when we're buying stuff.  
I also think the last poster is right that they are fishing.  

. . . that can be found in a short, clear and concise *AD*. In my *AD*, a gentleman can find my rates, location and stats. If he wants to find anything else about me, then he can visit my website and/or do his research on TER.  

If they conflict then i understand asking and you should ask. I'm talking about when they don't and a client hasn't bothered to check.

when you've shown you've read and i don't need to tell you every little thing, you get the world from me. but if you're asking me stuff thats easily found on my site or ad, then you'll get a tepid version of me that doesn't care if you book or not.

From the point of view of the money invested, time, and risk if something goes wrong, I don't see how so many guys just decide to call a number or send an email before knowing what they are doing.

Most of your posts are anti-hobbyist. I am curious as to why that is? Have you had a lot of bad experiences Momma?

and thats fine, but i'm sure you've received questions  that can be easily answered by reading your ad thats what i'm talking about, the non readers.

I am frequently contacted by men who say they found me on TER, want to meet me, and then go on to make it very clear they haven't read Word One about me on either my site or in my ads.

How much research would you do before ordering a pizza from a new restaurant? Not the "maximum possible" I bet. Now researching a house to buy would be an entirely different matter.

I'm specifically posing this question to hobbyists so i can see if there is a more efficient way to dispense information if they don't like checking the website, and to find out why. how is that anti hobbyist?

I can't argue with that statement, and neither should you. It's an argument you won't win.

... scour thru a provider's site to see if I am a viable customer for her. More times than not I have to contact her anyways since her clientele preferences are often not mentioned.

to read a gal's website and a sampling at least of her reviews (Maybe 4-6), would only take half an hour.

People lack simple reading skills!!! It's very annoying to answer the same question that the answer/answers are in plan site!!!  

You said "maximum research" and for many of the guys here that means HOURS of research, poring over every review, advertisement and board post they can find.  

When they see our photos, the blood rushed down to their other head without the brain, that the one with the brain can't read nor comprehend.

who are just fucking dumb and the others who are just fucking lazy.

It is kind of a mirror image complaint that so many female SOs have about their male SOs. Complaints about them never listening, never paying attention, not following directions. "If only he would change and do it the way I want him to do it!"

I usually don't ask for anything beyond... are you available for a two hour [incall/outcall] on [day] at [time]? Everything I need to know is either on her p411 or TER profile. While I do check her website for pics, I tend to skim over the marketing copy most of the time.

reasonable, would be a more reasonable term.  

This brought to you by the GaGambler just got laid and is in a really good mood department.  

When sending email inquiries, I have the website right there, so no problem. But I almost never phone or text while in front of the computer. If I am interrupted while on the computer, I can shut it down and resume later with no rudeness to my Provider recipient. If I am on the phone, I can't just hang up if I get a real phone call or if someone needs to ask me some questions or get info.  To hang up in that situation WOULD be rude.
.
So I save a contact number or two but almost no notes and then call when I know I won't be interrupted. Unfortunately, I have forgotten almost everything from her website by then! I then use "dumb questions" just to break the ice and get myself reoriented and try to get to where we're going.  
.
I don't mean to be annoying. And I'm not a total idiot. A first phone call is just awkward.

I find it annoying when a guy asks what my rate would be. I have different rates for all different lengths of time. It's on the site for a reason or when I get emails when I'm out of town but my site has an availability schedule on it.

interesting, i hear that often  that guys just save numbers with no info. explains quite bit, thanks

yeah i thought it was mainly laziness. I was curious to see if there was an easier or more preferred way to dispense info to clients if not on the website, but it seems no matter the method, most don't read

..... with the sign that says to use the other door?

I think it was the late Joe Carbo (The Lazy Man's Way to Riches) -- the direct response marketing guru, who toiled energetically to pursue every response, every question, knowing it was a potential sale.  He said he spent a ton on marketing campaigns and therefore those fractional percent response rates were the veins of gold he was looking for.  He didn't complain that the potential customers didn't read the ad carefully, rather he realized that out of all the millions who saw his ad and  promptly ignored it, here was someone that demonstrate some sort interest in his product.  He doubled down on his efforts to sell to those prospects -- almost certain to have a higher return rate than the public at large.

However, I've personally learned which ones have NEVER wound up booking.  

Assuming men who want to verify the rate have not read the webpage, which could possibly be out of date.
