Should I start to make multiple appointments?

[Francesca76]

Well we, "independent escorts", are having serious problems regarding clients booking.
Me personally when a client ask to make a booking, I ask to him to send me a text cancelling". Do you know how many do that? None!!!!

Then at the same time you receive another call from a client "a genuine client" that really wants to come by but as you are already booked you say "sorry I am busy" and sometimes the client only can come by at that time. Conclusion the client that had made the booking doesn't show up... and you sad NO for the one that really wanted to come by.

The problem is that you guys call many girls and make the booking with all of them.
Probably some girls just got tired to be threated like that and started to take double or tripple bookings, and I don't blake then!!!

If you want respect... show respect!!!!

Then if you truly had a 100% success rate there then it points to a difference is culture (punting culture) ...

That is almost certainly the case. In Germany, industrial scale prostitution is legal and common. (Not for me.)

Independent escorts working from truly private apartments are much less common and they are not so easy to find whereas the in-your-face establishments are very obvious. I suspect that means that the escorts and clients who operate in the Indie/private niche are those who appreciate the style and both sides put in the effort.

Certainly, in my experience, the standard in the Indie/private sector in Germany is way above all but the very very best escorts in Dublin. (Prices are lower too.)

No bells ringing there. Also, if I have no time pressure and I just go to the centre and start calling escorts in the D1 area then everything works out fine. Under those circumstances, every single escort who has ever answered the phone to me has either offered me a time that day (usually in one or two hours) or asked me to call the next day and almost every short notice appointment that I have made has been kept. There are two exceptions to that, in one case, an escort sent me an SMS to say that she way really sorry but a regular had just extended and could I put the appointment back by a few hours and in the other case, an escort said that she got a call from somebody who was in her street a minute before me and thought that it was me (her booking) and so saw another client. She apologized and most certainly made it up to me later that day.

So, I really do not think that it is me. I think that the problem is that most escorts here do not see any reason to honour appointments that they make for "tomorrow".

you sure have been unfortunate i never had any problems like that since i joined EI but before i was a member i had your bad luck but the celtic tiger was booming then and most escorts weren't available the days i had off work

Francesca, if I ever had to cancel a booking that I made with you, I would do exactly what I have done on the handful of occasions on which I have had to cancel appointments with other escorts. I would not send you a text, I would phone you and tell you that I was very sorry - and I would be.

What do you do if you cannot see a client who has made a booking?

In my experience, only two escorts have actually said anything to me about appointments that they failed to honour and in both cases, it was when I contacted them after the time to ask what had happened.

i believe you francesca76 that clients don't bother sending a text to cancel an appointment there is so many time wasters out there that f**K thing up for genuine clients

I think that you can handle this situation very easily.

I call you on Tuesday and ask if I can make an appointment to see you at 6pm on Weds. I tell you maybe 30 mins or maybe an hour - I want to decide when I get there.

You have never heard of me before but you say yes and hope for the best.

Then on Weds morning, your favourite regular calls. He wants to see you. He can only come at 6pm and he knows that he wants an hour.

Well, you want to see your regular client but in truth, you also want to see me - I might become another regular after all and anyway, my money is just as good and your regular might make an extra visit next week if he cannot come today.

So, you tell your regular that you have already made a tentative booking at that time and ask him to hold on for a few minutes while you check back. He is your regular, he must be worth a couple of calls and he must also understand that you need to get things sorted.

Now you send me a text. "Hi sharkskin, it's Francesca here, we have an appointment at 6pm. I just need to confirm that you are still OK for that time or to ask if you can make it at 7:15pm instead."

Wait for half an hour. If I do not respond, then give up on me, make the appointment with your regular and send me another text saying that you are sorry but you cannot make the appointment and that if I want to rebook, you will give me an extra half hour for free. I cannot complain about that. I mean, if I make an appointment, I had better make sure that my "visiting escorts" mobile is with me and turned on until the time arrives.

If I do respond and say that I really do want to come and see you and that I can only come at 6pm then you have to make the hard choice but now you should be a lot more confident that I want to come and you can also try to pin me down for a decision as to 30 mins or the hour. If I am not willing to commit to the full hour then you can at least offer a 30 min slot to your regular.

That has got to be a better strategy.

Many decades ago, I learned through my business the importance of keeping the clients fully informed and of making sure that if there is bad news they hear about it quickly. It always works out best in the long run.

An appointment for tomorrow with an escort you don’t know or who doesn’t know you is possibly optimistic. I have visited a few girls by now and the most common gripe is the amount of time wasters they have to put up with. If a girl is to do, lets say, 5 visits in a day she may receive double that amount of calls (usually a lot more). A lot are prank calls, just to hear her voice. Some are guys making multiple appointments only to decide himself later who to visit. So let’s give the escort the benefit of the doubt here.

I have found there are ways of close to guaranteeing an appointment. If she knows you, ok that goes without saying. If this is my first time with this girl I would state that I am reliable and would expect her to be the same. I would make no qualms about ensuring her that I will arrive and am not a timewaster. If the appointment is the day before I would ring many hours before on the day to confirm the appointment, and even then an hour before to reconfirm. At this stage your number is more than likely registered on her phone and your chances are greater. I have rarely been let down.

You must appreciate that an escort receives many calls and probably has learnt who the timewasters are and who are not. It should not be like you should make an appointment with two or three dentists and deciding who you will visit 5 minutes before. If we all were more reliable then this stich wouldn’t exist.

From reading your post I wonder does your appointment practice give a girl sufficient confidence that you will actually turn up. I don’t know I’m just giving my tuppence worth..

Hun why have you not written reviews for these so called 80% that have messed you around???

If he do not see them he can not review them I think

If he do not see them he can not review them I think

There is an option "Made a booking, but did not meet escort"...................

Now you send me a text. "Hi sharkskin, it's Francesca here, we have an appointment at 6pm. I just need to confirm that you are still OK for that time or to ask if you can make it at 7:15pm instead."

An escort contacting a potential client has and always will be a big no-no. Rotten apples on both sides ruin it for everybody
