Hard times or not

[i'va biggen]

If a provider keeps lowering her rates,and adding to her menu.
#1times are hard and she needs to attract more clients.
#2 she is not what she seems,and is running out of clients.

Too high to start with?

Market adjustment. Let the free enterprise system work it's magic.

Or an extension of #2, she is on a slow, desperate slide to Independence Avenue

I believe its due to the economy myself. And as for adding things to the menu I would like to believe its to refine services and allowing themselves to be more..giving. Or at least thats what the optimistic side of me perfers to think however I must concede that through all of my trolling the various boards the extremely lowered donations seem to correlate with bad reviews.

then again my mother always used to say "if you spend your allowance at the dollar store all the time your toys are gonna break faster" - meaning if i used my allowance to buy more of the cheaper toys instead of saving it for a good toy I wouldnt have anything worth while in the end.

I suppose its all a matter of perspective and individual. One girls change may be desperation another girls change may be desire.

I've seen this happen with one particular provider in mind. She didn't do certain things; therefore, she wasn't busy, yet she was charging a higher rate. She started adding in the things men were looking for, and then she was busier. I would say that's a business thing.

There was one thing in particular I would never do, but finally started. It wasn't so bad, and now I love it.

But, some change rates and add services to the menu when they've run out of clients who'll see them or their attitude got the best of them.

There are a lot of different reasons we have our rates the way we do. Maybe we want to attract clients who normally can't afford us, maybe we want to open our minds to something more.

So many reasons...

Speaking of cheaper toys... I bought an Adam & Eve Magic Massager today instead of the Hitachi Magic Wand because it was $45 cheaper than the Hitachi. Adam & Eve is a good brand/company, so I think it will last, despite me paying only $45 for it. So just because your rates are less than another provider does not make you any less worthwhile.

You can still see someone great even if her rates are lower. Bad economy or not. See who you want to see. Save up if you have to.

Just my opinion...

Whow an informative thead with no bashing. I think I just learned a little. Should a guy expect the same service if he has to save up for that special treat as opposed to the guy with money to burn?

How can a good massager be $45 cheaper than the Hitachi Magic Wand when the magic wand is only $49.95? I bought one for a provider friend this year and she uses it all the time now.

Having said that, there are a lot of reasons ladies change their prices. I know a lady who is pretty far above the curve and refuses to lower her prices, even in this shitty economy. When I asked her why, she said it was because she knows what she has to offer and feels that what she brings to the table is greater than her peers. Also, she is looking for a very particular line of clients which appreciate what she brings to the table.

I know another provider who had a great standard menu which didn't change the entire time she was active as a provider. Also, her rates stayed the same that whole time, except she had a standing special during the sweet spot of her day for her preferred clients. She held high standards for client services and was never at a loss for business.

Most of the time, I would say that one bad review never sinks a line of stellar reviews, but I know with some providers it signifies the end of a good run which only will get worse. They lower their rates which increases business but also can cause a decrease in reputation depending on how high or low her rate was to begin with.

If a lady isn't open to expanding her menu due to personal or safety reasons, and doesn't want to lower her rates, my only suggestion to bring consistent return business is to step her game up. Meaning, she needs to have an increase in her soft skills... her client service level must be beyond reproach.

In some cases, I think guys who pay more, only think they're getting their money's worth. But, then again, only you know how much your money is worth to you. Some guys pay what they do for the experience... they see a certain lady as an experience they'd like to entertain and what they take away from that experience is worth what they're spending.

For me a date isn't worth more than around 200, 250 max. Girls are competing against the vast collection of porn I have and the fantasies I can make happen with those. :-)

Have I paid more? Yes. Will I again, maybe, but not probable.

By the way, my least favorite rate is 225. If you want 240 just post your rate as 240. lol ATMs don't give out 10s and 5s anymore and haven't for about 10 years.

[FireSerpent]

Royamcr... some credit union ATMs and UMB bank ATMs give out 5's or 10's (respectfully) depending on which you go to.

Some ATMs still do, but I had always made a point to stop at a gas station to pick up something to drink or maybe a breath mint to make change. If you post an odd amount, you are going to get it from me.

[royamcr]

Ya, I have done that too. I thought all ATMs were 20s only. My bank is, and others charge service fees so I avoid them if I can unless it is an emergency. And fucking isn't an emergency for me. :-)

FireSerpent, where I'm at, they cost $90 for the Hitachi Magic Wand. *sigh*
