Studios Slow

[Doug4343]

One of the ladies told me the Studios are slow. She thinks it's due to the immigration crackdown as she said she is not seeing a lot of Latin or Indian customers (her words not mine).

I'm wondering if that, along with the recent STD posts, is keeping folks away.

Or maybe it's just the price of eggs?

I’m sure a combo of all of it.. the studios are in a location that has high immigration area, the additional upcharges, along with people still recovering from the holidays as well (working to pay off debt). The STD have also made it much more worrisome, but I would point out a lot of the lineups have not seen an influx of new talent either.

I have thought about it a couple of times as well, when I have been.. if these girls are overstaying visas, what would happen to the dude?

Rate hike INC....

February is usually a pretty slow month for this industry. Most people are paying off debt from the holidays, it’s “winter” and many people are seeing new work/projects to start off the new year. February also has weird school holidays in the middle of the month with throws off this industry because it falls on a biweekly pay weekend that dads are often spending with their children instead of with whores…also end of the NFL season, Valentine’s Day, politics and currently the mass hysteria regarding immigration.

So, yes! There are some things causing less customers to go to studios/agencies right now.

Some of the Cali ladies are afraid to fly because of issues mentioned above.

I admire your response. A soju glass to you!

Winter months are usually slow for the industry. There are still a few girls that are booked solid.


There will definitely be a slowdown on new talent at the AMPs and I would anticipate that their price may increase as the price of admission goes up.


The kstudio girls should have no issues bc they can get a visa.

The bookers aren’t nearly as friendly as they used to be, the screening process they do now is too personal, the quality of ladies isn’t as great, the increase in rates and the upcharges, and yes a STD outbreak will cause a lot to not come back

Yeah I think it's just a combination of winter months being slow (for almost all businesses) and then there hasn't been an influx of new talent recently. There are also a lot of ladies working in the Dallas studios at the moment, so maybe the increased competition is making it slow for certain ladies? And then of course the higher rates and the guaranteed upcharges for just about every girl gives a lot of guys almost no desire / incentive to hit up the studios in general.

Such a great point right here. I really really hope the studio owners / bookers read these posts. I have mentioned this before, but if the studio bookers would inject just a little bit of a "customer-centric focus", I think they could drum up so much more business. Some examples -

1. text lineups to customers. I used to get frequents texts from bookers telling me lineups and I literally receive ZERO of these texts now. Who knows, some guys might not be thinking of going to a studio that day, but if they receive a text, they might all of a sudden get horny and want to go. The effort / risk is worth the reward.

2. give customers incentives for going to studio - offer small discounts on entire session, discounted or free upgrades, buy X number of sessions get 1 free, raffle for a free doubles session, etc. The possibilities are endless here. If a booker texted a customer and offered a $30 discount, they might consider going because of the money, but i think a lot of guys would consider going because they would feel valued as a customer.

3. ask guys who their favorite girls are and notify customers when those girls are coming back to town. Lovely Angels / GL booker used to do this all the time with me but no longer does it.

4. if a guy has a bad session, do something more than just telling us to see a different girl or even worse - being radio fucking silent!! How about offering a discounted session or a free upgrade if they come back tomorrow and see another girl? Do the right thing!!

I'm sure guys can think of more ideas, and might even need to start a new thread with all of our ideas.

GL will text me from time to time the lineup, but I think they do that when it's slow. And AS has been telling me when certain ladies are coming or supposed to come. Like AS said Lisa was coming but she didn't pushed it off to March. Even these small reach outs are nice and good customer service.

I felt special Saturday getting that lineup text from GL… should definitely happen more

I like the raffle for a free duos session

I’m not trying to push anyone to go to certain places but I’ll send you a DM about this topic.. hopefully if you have success like I have, then it can be publicly posted and maybe it will change how studios work

High interest rates are killing the real estate and construction businesses. The high cost of living today along with the higher rates charged by studios are being affected by disposable income. California rent is double Dallas prices. Why are fees at a California level?

I think that the bookers and studios are taking for granted good customer service and what the market wants.

I use to get text about a particular girl’s availability. Also I had a bad experience and basically the booker told me to go eff off, so I’ve been boycotting that studio.

Fortunately Dallas is a good size market and there’s plenty of options to choose from the studios to the hotel studios to the indys and then the AMPs. We need to make them compete to earn our business and loyalty.
