For Providers Who Are Struggling - Developing "Real World" Job Skills

[Zabrina Sarafina]

From my observation of the market over the years, I have to say true hdhs (who charge in the thousands as in my story above) never last very long (unless they have another source of income). Maybe they vanish to only reappear in another different format, just give up or move on. A level below - high-end providers are continuously fighting to 'keep it going'. Then we have the middle ground and those are doing beautifully, achieving all their goals, living an easy-going life.. while still maintaining a healthy balance. not overworking or under-working - that perfect line, and still attracting a good quality of clientele

For those that are all about the bottom line, end of the year what matters is did you reach/exceed your goal, or did your marketing fail .. if so time to hit the drawing board and re-strategize, not mope around and sink in self-despair

As we all know, escorting is fairly easy money. There's people struggling out there just to earn 25/hour while being highly qualified.

Count your blessings, practice gratitude. Don't feel bewildered and blame it on the world if you can't even pay the rent striving to be "elite"

Come back down to earth, join practical reality, do some research in how a business actually runs.

I agree wholeheartedly with this entire post!

Being in a position to hire and fire people, I both understand and witness first hand how difficult it is to get and keep a job. So few people are grateful for the little things. But the normalcy of a real life job makes keeping this a delicious secret all the more fun. Plus you don't feel as isolated.

I have always been taught that pride comes before the fall. In this arena, ladies would soon create another persona than to lower rates.

But what gets me the most is when the questions arise about how to raise your rates or become an HDH. What a LOT of people don't know is that these HDH's have been ho'ing for YEARS, starting at normal rates. Honey, after 10+ years as a Companion, learning and living a fantastic life, changing your situation so that it is possible for you to be more exclusive, you deserve whatever you charge.

Unless a lady starts with an exclusive companion mindset, she'll probably have to let supply and demand dictate your fate.

This is so True. And yes about the delicious secret.. I admit I have had to learn to tone the sexiness/sexual energy down a bit when I'm out interacting in civvie life. It's a bit hard as I am accustomed to charming/seducing my way through life. Typical woman right

Yes, and growing up passing through my young and arrogant phase I have felt firsthand that painful downfall. Since then I have come to understand a few key points such as, it's not all about you, life rewards you when you remain extremely humble, and of course the law of reciprocity - Give, and it will be given to you ...how you wish to integrate that in your companionship business is up to you

I'm too lazy to create multiple personas lol plus I would strongly feel it is unethical... I just try to maintain being 'Me' and Zabrina

You got it
