Price Issue
These days its not Dr's or Lawyers who are visiting SP's but those businessman who are in business making easy $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, for them to pay $250+ is a peanuts, but for those who earn their money the real hardway to pay $250+ is bit difficult, this hobby is a very expensive game, much costlier than even keeping a Yatch/boat + membership of a marina, if u feel like relaxing or taking your stress out every week with an SP/Fine Courtsan's

I have had a few SP's tell me they set their rate at what they feel they are worth and in the same frame of mind their regular clients return because they feel that the experience they've had is worth the price.athenian said:

I hear this from virtually all the ladies who set their price point at this level or higher, so I think it works provided the lady delivers the service, has a great attitude and is very attractive. Selina, do you qualify???
I bet you do.
I should have qualified my comment about price increases not being effective on weed control.
As Selina pointed out, if you go from $50 to $250 it's hard to argue against the effectiveness. However if you're already charging over $200 and increase your rate even by as little as $20, then you're immediately losing a segment of the market. You see can see a history of posts supporting that. Is that segment necessarily bad or risky? I don't think so.
A couple of years ago, when I had more disposable income, I wasn't too concerned about cost and routinely booked multiple hours. Nowadays I have set limits. Have I become an asshole in those two years because I can't afford some ladies?

You forgot to add drug dealer, criminals and politicians. After all money is money, no matter where it comes from
Obviously, but I think you may be ovlivious to the fact that there is a burgeoning class of new money that is unidentifiable by class such as dr, lawyer, etc. is. Entrepeneurship is the biggest wealth sector in the economy, walks around in jeans and drives motorcyles, may clad leather, so with all due respect your thinking is somewhat dated. Their roots may originate in the blue collar sector, they may drive infinite g35's, own their own airplanes, but that doesn't mean they pony up to the highestpriced call girls. I have my share of these clients and charge 200 incall, they just want to have a great time. They repeat, are loyal, have class, and are some of my faves. They arent impressed by champagne/ caviar/glitz and glamor. Also your comment that the repeat value of someone with money would be there is self evident, although I know of blue collare workers who spend every dime on the hobby and do repeat. Hope I haven't offended you.drlove said:
An aquaintance of mine is struggling to get a high priced agency off the ground. He charges $300/hr. and has some great girls. His experience is that he is getting a lot of water sport buffs who want golden showers and to lick a girl's stinky bum, who like getting punched and kicked and bossed around. Could this be an effect of high prices? Do the pervs go for the pricier girls? These are the important questions of our time!

Don't you?
Another important aspect to consider is how well do you treat the SP. Do you treat her as a piece of meet or with respect? I am sure most SPs want to be treated with respect and class, they are no different than you and me.
I'm a business man and business owner and I sure do. Why would an SP be any different?goalie000 said:

Interesting
Maybe because doctors and lawyers think they are above it all. That gets back to the respect aspect.
I have to agree, tipping is a good indicator of class. I aways tip when the service is good! I only never tipped once and that was because of bait and switch tatic with poor service.

or perhaps they think that tipping is not something generally done with professional service providers. I never tip plumbers, carpenters, or doctors or lawyers or sp's. I don't think respect is something that can be bought or paid for.longjohn50000 said:

I really have to seriously look at touring...I'm a big ol' chicken! I think I'll do it as a vacation kind of thing, so that no-shows won't bother me like they can when that's your sole purpose in being in another city.

Forget about escorting when you come to TO. We can plan a day of sightseeing. Start with the obligatory CN Tower, lunch in some pretentious Yorkville resto, then cool shopping on Queen West, over to Kensington Market for cheese tastings and finish it off with bar hopping on King West.Vancouver Femme Fatale said:

I'm not sure I totally agree with you on the Client thing here. I'm a small business owner and a client is a client, no matter how he or she is dressed, (Except of course if they are filthy and smell).longjohn50000 said:
I do agree that Treating the person with Dignity and Respect is a very important aspect of any transaction and is a major point in cultivating repeat business.
I heard that price with some SP's is also YMMV. In other words, the SP does not charge the same posted price to every client. Some clients get better than the posted price for the same service. True?
