A couple of threads ago Gaga commented "Hookers have brow beaten the johns on TER into accepting their rules" which is eminently true. But it got me thinking, because I still am willing to negotiate with them if I think it's worth the trouble. Just yesterday I had an amazing date with a TER Top 100 rated escort. She used to be a favorite of mine before moving out of my area and raising her rates. She now charges $700/hr. But fuck that, I can get 3+ dates with my horny little SBs for that amount of money, plus they don't watch the clock. Anyway, the escort in question let me know she was in my area visiting and would like to see me. So I delicately negotiated a price down to $500. As it turned out, she was so freaking horny and insatiable we wound up having a two hour fuck fest until I could not continue any longer. So, not too bad on a $$ per hour basis, especially for a top rated pro. The girls who are offended by a simple request to negotiate are not worth visiting, imo. Reminds me of a little book I read many years ago about advice for men visiting a legal brothel in Nevada. This was back in pre interwebs days, when people read books. Anyway the author said that these prostitutes were all semi independent business women who would gladly talk to you and negotiate their fee. They expected it, and their first offer was not necessarily their final offer. Also, they understood that not every business conversation results in a sale. Negotiating is good, and worth trying. To be successful at it, you have to be willing to walk away if the deal does not suit you.
and female companionship is one of them. So much of the experience consist of the aura of suspended disbelief - much like when we are moved by a stunning performance on the stage (Which, the hobby is - with audience participation.)
Nevertheless, I think what you say here has some practical advice.
For what it's worth, here's the most important fact about selling that was imparted to me by a very good salesman, sales being an important aspect of my business:
A sale happens when the buyer is more motivated to buy than the seller is motivated to sell.
Something to ponder.
a POT SB after our meet and greet lunch (where she ordered 2 main courses and actually ate it all LOL) tried to up her price when I mentioned we should continue our date at my home. Told her I wasn't prepared to do that and walked away. As I'm walking away, she texts me trying to split the difference between what we had agreed to and the NEW asking price. I ignored it and just went to the car. Poor girl had to drive an hour each way in "change-out day" traffic for nothing but a nice lunch. She texted me later saying she only asked because she really needed that amount. Well, she was two-thirds the way there for only about an hour more of her time. SMH
If everyone would do the same as you, these girls wouldn't even try to pull this kind of thing.
It is amazing that a girl in such dire need of money would rather walk away with nothing than to get a least "most of the way" to her goal. Oh well, some of these girls are not the brightest creatures.
Quite agree. Good decision to think with the big organ (your wallet) rather than your little organ (just a metaphor, not a flame).
If she had possessed any sales skills should would have realized the way to up her monetization of you was to cross sell, rather than upsell. If she had offered an extra couple of hours, or a sleep over with morning BJ wake up, or anything of additional value to her that didn't significantly increase her COGS (that's Cost Of Goods Sold) she might have gotten that 50%-100% additional funds from you and you'd both be happy.
