I keep seeing ads where providers state that they strongly prefer longer sessions, and that all longer sessions will get priority over single hour arrangements. That makes sense. Less down-time and your  profit per trip goes up with a longer session.

What I don't get is why, if their preference strongly favors longer appointments; why don't their rates reflect that? It's easy to say "I prefer longer appointments" but until they back that up with physical evidence, i.e. an incentive to the consumer. It is merely an advertising blurb aimed not toward their preference in sessions and therefore our enjoyment of said session; but a statement aimed at their bottom-line.

Call a spade a spade!

If you are talking about an $80 back page encounter, then I would argue the opposite is likely true.  I would imagine 15 minutes is probably a better experience than a longer session.

Alternatively, there are at least four or five providers with whom I have had the pleasure of spending time with whom a longer session would have been "even better".  Not just sexually, but more so in terms of just being able to savor being naked with such a beautiful women.  If I had to break down my "average" hour-long session I am guessing that half the time is spent in foreplay (mostly, gently massaging her while again admiring how pretty), 20 minutes spent with actual extracurricular activities and then the ten minute wind-down, getting dressed and getting out.  This is very, very much by choice as that is how I WANT the hour to break down.

Add another hour to that time?  Would love to stay in bed afterwards and give her the same massage on the way out that I gave her on the way in.  And even at my age I am guessing a 2nd round of extracurricular would occur.  But even if not, enjoying touching (and being touched by) these beautiful women is the best part of this whole hobby to me.  More time - more intimate touching - even better experience.

If your objective is only to go through a check list of sexual acts and you can accomplish these acts in an hour, then of course more time is only more expense.  If you are after something more, then the additional time makes perfect sense .  

Different customers, different needs and different perspectives based upon those needs.

In my case all I need is 15 minutes.
7 minutes to look out the window after I arrive to make sure my wife or one of her nosy friends did not follow me
1 minute for the actual act
7 minutes to look out the window to make sure the coast is clear before I leave

That's really the only lesson people need to be concerned with.  

You can hypothesize all you want about what makes sense to *you*, and you can choose to spend your money anywhere and with anyone you see fit (assuming the feeling is mutual), but trying to tell ladies how to structure their rates so it reflects what you think it should be is pretty silly.  She either gets what she asks for or she doesn't.  What you think matters not one whit.  ;-) If she doesn't get what she asks for, she adjusts.  If she does... she does, so why change?

Many ladies do signal that preference through their rates. One very lovely provider who has visited us is Kayana Kaye. Both under her original "considerations" list and her current one, the average cost per hour and the marginal cost of additional time is lower the longer the date.

Current:  1.5 hours    $600     ($400/hour)
              2.0 hours    $700     ($350/hour and $200 per hour for the extra half hour)
              3.0 hours   $1000     ($333/hour and $300 per hour for the extra hour relative to 2 hours and $233 per hour relative to the 1.5 hour minimum)

I don't remember her original "considerations" list exactly when she was new and hadn't yet accumulated all of her great reviews, but I do remember that it provided a huge incentive for a three hour date. Being an economist, I responded to incentives, and I am glad that I did.

Also, I don't think that it is just a consideration of profit and less down time. Some very GFE ladies prefer the longer time to have a more relaxed experience. These also seem to be the more selective and higher rate ladies). Others may feel that it is better to have us on our way after an hour, and they may signal that in their rates as well.

of course they prefer longer appointments.Less "work" for more pay. I suppose there is some % that could possibly offer a "better" experience for the longer appointment but, to me, it's just sex. Sex doesn't necessarily get better because your session is 4 hours instead of 1. It's not like a real date anyway.

Also, I can go to dinner or have a good conversation with any woman. Don't need an escort for that.

The simple beauty of a competitive marketplace.

The other day I went to the store to purchase a gift for my nephew. An employee asked if I needed help and said someone would be there in a few minutes. I waited for 5,10, ... almost 20 minutes for them to get it. They never came. I finally left and drove to another store where it was on the shelf. I picked it up and purchased it in less than 5 minutes.

There was no reason to request to speak to the manager of the first store and ask for an explanation, discount blah, blah blah.

It's the part of the OP that I don't agree with i.e., she should not HAVE to adjust or discount for longer sessions. The ladies that charge $600-800 per hour have clients who pay that much. You just simply move on to the next option.

An older guy as noted ain't going to get three pops in an hour, for that matter in two hours.  This gives the provider less wear and tear so to speak during an extended session.  Yes more conversation and foreplay but she won't take a pounding for two hours.

What you experienced was simply poor customer service, not odd/unusual/nonsensical/not-for-you rates.

If you had been treated with respect, attended to promptly and felt appreciated then the chances are that you might have paid an extra $5 or $10+ bucks for that gift at the first store.  However, the disrespect and lack of appreciation/concern you experienced caused you to look elsewhere.  Perhaps the next store had the product for the same price as the first, perhaps it was lower or it might have even been higher but you experienced convenience (in and out in 5 min) at the second store that you did not at the first...so you bought it there.

Yes, its the competitive market place - but your experience involves much more than simple price.  There is an emotional satisfaction that comes from being attended to courteously and expeditiously.  Sometimes, that is worth a premium price.

Bringing it back to the purpose of these forums, I have dropped the ball with gents (prompt replies/follow up/etc) and lost what I would project to be appreciable business.  I'm fallible just like everyone else, and I'm sure they moved on to more responsive pastures.  In the end, though, I dropped those balls because I was fielding enough other offers (at my non-disocounted, "advertising blurb" rates per the OP) that I simply didn't have time to follow up and so whatever revenue was "lost" was simultaneously "replaced".  Hence the market bearing it...  ;-)

People often get confused by what competition means.  In a competitive market, each provider competes to earn as much profit as possible at the expense of the competition.  Also in a competitive market, consumers can scour the market for a provider that meets their value requirements at the lowest price.

This is not what happens in the hobby.  Providers have every incentive to collude on price.  Providing is a non-tradable good.  Clients have to pay what the local market will bear.  A DC hobbyist pretty much pays 350+/hr for service regardless of whether the same quality of service can be found in Des Moines, IA for 220/hr.  A particular market is healthier for providers if they charge the same rate and compete on other factors (local location, boob size, hair color, height, etc.) than if they compete on price in search of volume.  This is how an 8/8 GFE provider can price on par with a 10/10 GFE provider and still be successful.

Ms. Cole has successfully exploited the collusive environment to her benefit.  She has a more expansive menu, is in the top decile of physical attractiveness, is professional in her communication, and is someone you'd like to spend more than an hour with.  Compared to the ladies at 350 who offer varying levels of service quality, it's easy for her to justify her high rates.  Ladies like her are as close to a sure thing as you're going to get in the hobby.  People who have more money than time are naturally going to book her.
