What makes a provider a great provider?

[Energy]

Be sure to TCB (take care of business), meaning reply to inquiries as quickly as you can and, unless it's a life and death emergency, DO NOT NCNS. It pisses people off to no end and earns the provider a reputation that's difficult to shake. If you can't/don't want to set an appointment, politely say so. Don't just ignore a request. And if you can't make an arranged appointment, go ahead and let the other party know as soon as you can. It will be most appreciated, just as it would be in the outside business world. Welcome to the hobby, and best of luck to you.

Any provider who tells me she just wants me to fuck the shit out of her gets a gold star from me any day.

Agreed, your reputation is everything. So when a questionable comment or review is posted, there's no need for public debate. I feel the same way when a respected member is slammed or attacked on the board. This site is pretty well run which is a big plus too. Just my $.02

CIM and don't talk to much

[tagus69]

Don't be mechanical and don't just lay there. If we ask you what would do you like (during the session), don't say "Whatever you want baby." Believe it or not, some of us clients would like for you to enjoy the session as well and would put in the effort to ensure that you do. Many of us pay for your services, not because we can't get laid outside of hobbying, but we pay to avoid the drama associate with a relationship after the honeymoon phase ends (at least for me).

It's not about age or in many ways the body. Some of the most highly regarded escorts in Houston, back in the day, were older but they were warm, caring, nurturing women. When you were with them you felt as if you were the only person in their universe. When there was a party or social they always seem to have a kind word for everyone.

If you go to a restaurant and the food was great, but the service was horrible (they did not honor your reservation, wasted your time, made you wait when you had reservations, gave you bad directions to the restaurants, the waiter was rude and apparently doesn't like her job, rushes you through your meal, etc...) would you come back? Would you recommend the restaurant to your friends, or would you tell them to stay away?

Especially if there were other restaurants available...

I second that.
I will add that not everyone is the same so (as stated already) advertise yourself (what you do and dont do, pics, etc) If you try to advertise to get everyone and you get too many bad reviews because a hobbiest expected something else, then its bad for both parties. the reverse is true if you get good reviews (not everyone wants all activities)

All comments are good, but this one really rings true. Don’t try to be all things to all men. It’s a fantasy, and you can’t create the illusion if you are doing or being someone you aren’t.

All comments so far is good advice....

Market yourself for the type of clients you want to attract...... The closer you are to yourself the easier it will be to create the illusion that everyone is looking for.

Consistency is key here. Have good TCB combined with good BCD and you will do well. Communicating with your clients is very important. When everyone feels as if you care about their time as much as you do your's then it will go a long ways when you need people to be understanding when you have something going on.

So far with what I've seen I don't see you having any problems

ditto---you are a wise man!

Have my glass of champagne on the table when I arrive. Have this song playing on the radio, Lesbian porn on the TV with the sound off. Be wearing some boyshorts and nothing else. Have one candle lit on the nightstand and another 12 feet from the footboard. Spray some Lavender air freshener before I arrive to get the funk smell out of the air. Put deodorant on!

What was the question again???

[LittleSpike]

Two words, empathy and consistency !

just wanting to be a good provider already puts you in the top tier.
