I did not see any of them so there are no reviews. I always read available reviews, so some might say I had it coming because, in at least a couple of cases, the lady's "flakiness" was documented.

i understand that you wanted to rant.
and i understand your point of not wanting to identify the women who acted the way they did.
so i will rant back.
i differ w/ you in that i think [based on what you wrote] that what those women did was
*
unprofessional (canceling cos of where you are calling from?? get real!!)
*
less than organized (calling and asking the client to purchase/bring certain work related materials; calling for almost turn by turn instructions)
*
highly nit-picky (canceling cos you wanted to just get there)
in my book, all of those would be factored into whether or not i would even consider consulting w/ a woman who did that. [i have other criteria, but ease of appts is one of them]
you said ...
If you can't do the simple things, just get out of the business. I don't care how sexy you are or how good your reviews are. If you don't handle the basics, I don't want to see you! [emphasis added by pmd]
and asked ...
Is there any way to "ensure" a better chance of a successful hookup?
YES - let others know who these women are and what they did.
it's important cos it might save time, energy, and aggravation for any guy who is considering consulting wi her and who would want that info to help make a final decision.
if you had known before the appt what you knew after she blew you off or asked you to get the materials,
would you still have booked an appt and/or driven to her office??
if your answer is "yes",
then i suggest you share their names and what they did - either in public or in private.
to any provider who is reading this thread,
pls understand this:
if this is how you act towards a client [new or returning] who has BOOKED an appt with you and is on the way to see you, you will negatively affect your business.
Immediately cos the client wont be there to consult w/ you =
lost revenue.
And over time cos the client will probably share his experiences thru public posts, PMs, emails, or over a drink =
lost opportunities for revenue.
to the women who understand how to conduct their business in a professional, organized, and informed manner,
THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR SCHEDULING, ARRIVING, CONSULTING, AND AFTERGLOWING SO WONDERFUL!!!!!
