Short Notice or scheduled appointments in need of everyones feedback!!!

[Austins1hobby]

I maybe wrong here but I think I can safely assume that most of us hobbyist are the short notice type and considering some of you ladies busy personal life and hobby schedules you may all prefer scheduled.

I would like to know 1st what providers typically are very cool with short notice?

How many of you guys prefer scheduled appointments?

With my schedule, everyday is different and some days I find free time and some days its hard to get away therefore I prefer short notice and my definition of short notice is within maybe 1 or 2 hours of the initial call or PM.

I have found trying to schedule more than 4-5 hours out usually ends in a NCNS or rescheduled appointment. How does everyone else feel about this topic. I would love to hear from the Providers that can accommodate short notice and how short of notice needed.

Thanks

I'm all for short notice IF YOU ARE SCREENED. That's what it means to me. I've been around about a year so I have a few repeaters... but short notice only works for me if you've already been screened.

It truly depends on the day. If I'm available, then yes, short notice is great. But I hate turning away guys looking for short notice on the days/times when I'm not available. I hate saying no!

And what Tracy said - if you're already screened! Don't send me a PM without any information, just signed up last week, no refs, no P411, asking to see me in an hour. Ain't gonna happen.

That's very understandable. I just know me personally I get time throughout the day or I might have a wild hair that gives me the urge. But I have found that a couple of my scheduled appointments end up in not answering text or calls, something always coming up at the very last minute or something to that effect that's when I start to search for short notice.

I used to be short notice or same day ONLY, hated to schedule because of all the unknowns from my life let alone a Providers life.. Now I do not mind a day or two out, but that is about it, anything more than 3 days is just long..

I just giggle every time I see a Provider ad go up 3 weeks before she is in town. 3 weeks from now I could be dead or have won the lottery!!

We all know if anyone hit the lotto we would see and maybe have to start scheduling providers lol. I have seen some that say will be in town the week of Feb 17th-20th and its the freaking 3rd wow I would totally forget about that appointment. But I don't mind the 1 day or 2 day out but again my schedule changes in a seconds notice. Ex. I just picked up a conference call for 4pm today when this morning I was free all day.

Agree with the Ladies...
Most of my clients try to book up to 48 hours in advance, but not always. I have standing appointments, such as ever other Tuesday at 10am. I also receive requests for appointments, I go through screening, notify the fella, then don't hear from them for a month or two, or three, or four, then they contact me for a last minute appointment, at which time I have to go through the screening process again. No one likes to waste their time.

On the other hand, I'm a very lucky girl, in that I have many, many repeat clients that take very good care of me, and I hope they feel I take care of them too. I can't always accommodate them, but I will do my darnedest to accommodate a last minute request. I employ an online scheduling system for my clients who have already completed a successful first session. They have full access to my schedule, and can schedule their own appointments. They receive a confirmation, and tends to fulfill the needs of a last minute request.

same with me, I had a 12:30pm call scheduled and at 11:45 they canceled and moved it to 4pm. cutting into my 'Ellen' time that starts at 4pm! guess I will have to DVR it.. ( ;

Haha ralphey *does the bad ellen dancing*

I agree with what others have said please give me time to screen you.

[Austins1hobby]

All the providers are speaking of screening, so my next question would be if the hobbyist is already known and reviews and post on a regular would that count for your screening process? Ex. I have 22 reviews and do not post a review about every lady I see some I forget some I want to forget it ever happen and some are at the providers request but regardless does that come into play or apart of your screening process?

[NikkiWhite]

Yeah there are certain guys I know to be legitimate based on who they have reviewed for example say someone reviewed one of my friends well that's an easy yes I know that they will dispute a fake review if it good or bad.

Now if ur reviews are of bp girls, girls who arent around, girls who have high amounts of no recommendations, known drama starters, street walkers, or strip clubs then I need time to clear you.

All great info.

I even stopped seeing guys who frequented a certain idgas provider because all they did was come over and talk about her. Be careful who u use as a ref that can get a guy blacklisted.

"idgas" - is this a hobby acronym I don't know?


To the OP's question, I am one who tends to book in advance, sometimes as much as a couple of weeks in advance if it is a lady I've seen before, but more often a few days ahead. My schedule is difficult, so when I see an opening I try to fill it before it gets filled for me. That said, I also appreciate those who can accommodate last minute appointments - I recently had the experience of trying to book with someone 48 hours in advance - she didn't get back to me until about six hours after the requested appointment time, so at the last minute I turned to another provider who got back to me right away, fit me in, showed me an awesome time, and earned my repeat business. Whether booking in advance or last minute, I almost always book through P411 when booking with someone new, which really helps with the screening process.
