I'm curious if this would work. Imagine a girl has a special. And you really like the special. You prepay the special price for the next 2-3 visits. Since you bought it at that time you get the special price but you can use those sessions whenever. Has anyone tried that? Of course it would be with a provider that is well known and you also know her ect.

Another example. I'm currently doing a rent special and if I have people prepay for sessions at my special rate but they can use them at any time while I'm actively providing. Or is that a bad idea?

Thoughts?

It's a risk for client I think, the way providers like money upfront us clients like ass up front lol you seem to have a good rep here so I'm sure guys would be fine with that, but just leaves the door open to problems...in this world I think it's best everything is kept upfront.

Payment due when services rendered

rockerrick · 10-02-2012, 02:06 PM

Never pay in advance , I don't even repeat if I'm asked for cash before session . I'll pay it ( - tip ) , do session , and never return .

A fool and his money are soon parted

lol tried it... it worked as well as the titanic... a VERY well known provider pitched the idea to me, said she needed the money... paid for 4 sessions.... the first one went well because it was the day she collected..LOL then it was like pulling teeth to even get her to answer my calls... and when she eventually came by for the second it was all ATTITUDE and she even asked for a lil bit of money...LOL, she never came through with the last two appointments... fast forward about 8 months, she had a SD on the hook nice set up... did the exact same thing and got kick to the curb... i think if you want to try this...somehow the provider has to have some at risk which is equal to the value of the deal ... like if your willing to put up 3 hr session if you want all the money up front... (just thinking out loud)

I had a gentlemen once try to pre pay and I wouldn't let him. I was afraid our schedules wouldn't match up and then it would have been like I screwed him over. I think you can maybe promise the same special but they must use it within a week. Lol give a coupon. Hehe :-)

Ms. Milani · 10-02-2012, 02:21 PM

You all express valid concerns. I've done this once before but have always come through with my clients. It's really sad though that some providers screw the men over. They tend to forget that it's a business and it's about customer service and customer satisfaction. I always ensure everyone leaves happy with me and would hate to leave someone upset with me .

I've never seen anything good come out of this.

LV- That's messed up sorry it happen to you.

Secret Encounters · 10-02-2012, 03:26 PM

I have done this and it can be done but things can get messy Very quickly.

But it worked out OK.. but can get complicated especially if u run all these specials as u do and they may want to incorporate them in ur deal to. Stand ur ground on donation and figure out a plan.

Maybe get ur total fee agreement , then figure out how many hrs or visits u agree to.
then MAYBE collect half upfront and then spread out the cheap fee the rest of the visits. But it can get sticky bc u may wanna see other clients who pay for their sessions at reg rate bc U might need the money. Or pre paid may want session right when they want it bc they pre paid but u may have to cx another appt to at full rate bc he pre paid... +1 with VINNY very sticky ..

Luckily for me ive only done this a few times but I offered Monthly fees at low $$ bc i wanted less traffic and i can say all satisfied but still owe one a 1 hr session. He knows who he is and its not bc i avoided him just schedules have been different lately ..

Well good luck to u and Just make sure u keep ur word.

That is the scenario that I would most be interest in...let's say I pay for several sessions ahead of time and I get the urge at noon, make contact and you are available at the time I normally play...

A couple of hours later, a regular of yours that hasn't prepaid sessions wants to see you at the same time that I want to...what happens next...

If I were to get a call or text letting me know that something came up and you were not going to be able to see me, guess what I would think...someone who is paying just cut in front of me. It wouldn't matter what your explanation would be...that's what I would think.

I'd probably post something to make sure the other guys that prepaid are on alert of what may happen to them...I wouldn't care if I got blasted by others for prepaying or if you posted a reason on the board...cause that's the way it would look to me.

I think it's best to pay as you go...

In general, I don't think this is a good idea for all the reasons others have stated. However, I did this once with Likinikki. As you can predict, being the classy person she is, she honored the deal. In fact, she more than honored the deal. We had two outta sight sessions, both of which lasted longer than the agreed upon time. No money changed hands the second time. But, some bottles of good wine gave up the ghost.

Likinikki · 10-02-2012, 04:48 PM

Altbier, I think you gave up more than *the ghost* that night! (lol)

I've offered my regular Friends Packages for over 8yrs. You have to make sure the client knows there are some rules attached to the Special, and as long as they're good with those rules and everyone plays nice...all should go well.

I'm selective as to who I offer these packages...as they are GREAT DEALS, and both parties have to truly enjoy spending time together. Good-luck if you choose to go this route.

It's another one of those situations where the majority ruin it for the few.
