Now for my morning bowl of Asshole-io's.

I love it when you say "take it in the ass" in your sleepy voice!!!

Sorry... you're cute and all... I just like big tits...

Well well well, I leave for a while and return to this tasty threAD.

I shall chime in with hopefully a coherent statement. You are above your price point for whatever reason, plain and simple. Now the key is to find out why and how you are above your price point.

1. Lack of advertising, therefore limited exposure to your desired clientele.

2. Service level, is your service level on par with other $300 providers.

3. Client base, did you establish a client base before leaving p****** ?

4. Remember, many of the $300 girls didn't start there. They built up to that point and have many regulars.

On to another issue, going broke. Hmm I suggest that you learn to plan ahead and budget budget budget. Get a "real" job and use funds from providing as savings. This should add to and supplement your income, not be the sole source for various reasons.

"Control the hobby, don't let it control you".

You are running a business now, remember that..... let me know if you need a budget and financial plan I'm in a good mood and am giving back to the community..... NSA

oh shit! look who the hooker drug in!

Rhiannon begging for business publicly is never a good look. What you should have done is hit up your regulars and offer them special or just flat out ask for help. Most ladies that charge 300 or more have a fan base. If you don't then your really need to assess your rates and business tactics. If your able to get some appointments, you might consider hitting the tour circuit. Anways listen to fanci and you might want to befriend her ijs.

1. This shouldn't be your only source of income.
2. Don't treat each client as "use em, then get rid of em." Leave that to us guys.
3. Wow your clients. This will get them to repeat, and a few will eventually be your regulars.
4. Work something out with some of your regulars for a monthly plan for a constant income flow.

Anything over $200 is overrated. Good luck but eventually your high rates will catch up with you.
This is just a public example but I am sure the other "quiet" girls are hurting as well.
Is time to bring this shit down a notch. This $250-$300 trend is fucking ridiculous.

Thanks everyone for all the tips. And to "Thatdude" I am not begging for business, just trying to get some perspective on this slump my business has been in. In addition, the reason I do not call or text clients offering a special is because many of my clients have families and wives and I try to respect their privacy by not calling or texting unless they contact me first. This has been specifically requested several times. Finally, I will consider dropping my rates. Thanks everyone.

I wouldn't lower your rates. There are a lot of cheap bastards on here that love to bitch about anything over 200, don't listen to them. Fancy is right, if you lower your prices it may be more difficult for you to put them back up in the future. Sometimes there are just slow periods, the key is to keep plenty of money in the bank so that when you do go through slow periods, you don't get stressed or ever feel pressure to lower your prices.... Perhaps try advertising on more/different websites? Become more active on the boards and put yourself out there a bit more
