do you think prices are to high?
I've seen all types in all price ranges, and I don't think you can beat the ones in the $175-225 price range. Those that are higher are ok, but generally not worth the price difference.
Considering my magic cock, I think it should all be free
This is a bear trap if I've ever seen one. The best way to figure out what market rates are is to read the market. Are you getting enough business at your current rate? If not, try lowering it. If you're slammed and have a waiting list, you may try raising it (but be careful, you go too high and you lose the customer base you've worked hard to build).
What a guy is willing to pay depends on the guy, his budget, his tastes, and a whole mess of factors. There is no standard answer.

Being in Advertising myself, sometimes it is good to "Test" the market...
Try a "SUPER low special" for a day or so, then go back to normal, do it again a week or two later at a different "Special" rate, and gauge the results.
This way you can see where the price points are at with the clients.
I always look at price 1st, then the provider, that way I don't get all worked up and found out she is $400 per hour later....
But thats me....
dang Sexy your hot, your prices seem like a bargain LOL

You a very nice girl and you offer a great session. You gave me two first the day I saw you. The 1st first was you got me to cum from a BJ which I haven't had happen in over 15 years. The second first was the first time to get Greek with a provider.
As far as your question I do shop the ads. I first look for girls thats looks are appealing to me. I then look up reviews and info in the ML about the providers I like the looks of. I then look at their prices compared to the services they offer for the price. If all the girls are offering the same services then most of the time I will see the girl with the lowest price. If I am in the mood for something different I might choose looks or special services (like Greek) over price.
Remember value is not just price. Its the total package. Price, services offered, and the other non-contact things like incall location & quality, easy of making appointments, etc. The price can set what market segment is willing to see you. Value is what sets you above the rest in your segment
Low rates motivate me to hobby more. In fact, I think providers should take a page out of the hotel chain playbook with regards to loyalty and repeat business. Give me points towards discounts or other perks with every booking I will see you more regularly. While we all have preferences when it comes to selecting a provider, customer service and price are the two most important factors to me.

Price is only an issue in the absence of value, so if you re good at what you do then no need to worry!
I have a personal price limit. I first look at the price, location, looks of the provider, services offered by her and then reviews good or bad...if bad scratch off the list and start the search over.
As for the all-inclusive rates - I think it is good for the GFE sessions but if it is a fetish involved then I dont have a problem with a small additional fee but it should not be a fee things like kissing, msog -
ex. if I find an all inclusive GFE rate for $150 / hr but I am in the mood for say greek and she wants a $25 fee for the service then I am good with it. When I hear all-inclusive my thought goes to a GFE session: kissing, cuddling, bbbj, CFS, MSOG (the stuff we got from our GFs before they became our wives.
Before I had a price limit, I had the more expensive sessions and I have had the less expensive sessions. 9 times out of 10 the less expensive providers were more fun than the higher rate providers.
the economy bites right now, So if your current rate isn't bringing enough business but you dont want to lower your rates premanently then do specials periodically but offer the same services at your regular rate.
This year I have switched from escort providers to massage therapist providers and I like the flexible price scale, flexible isnt really a good work but all I can think of at the moment. I like a real therapeutic massage with a nice finish and sometimes I am in the mood for L1, L2, L3...and with the rates set at say 80, 140, 200 for the different levels is cool with me, that way I dont have to pay 140 for L1.
I prefer all inclusive personally. I hate to be in the middle of a session, an idea comes up and we have to stop to discuss a rate change.
As stated above extra for "basics" is something I won't do. If I am really paying for your time then I am paying for your time. Asking for extra for MSOG, for example, has become a dealkiller for me. I don't fault a girl asking extra for a fetish, but I think that when the fetish is relatively common (like greek) having the add-on cost half the regular session cost, which has been pretty common, is a bit much. And despite the concept of supply and demand, the number of all inclusive girls around does mean there is a decent supply on that score.
As for whether rates are too high, I guess that depends on whether or not you are seeing as many guys as you'd like. If not maybe they are. If you are, the rate must be OK.
Thanks everyone for your input just something I had been wondering, like I said I seen some girls as low as 120/hr and I was thinking ...dam I might go see her lol.. but I'm glad all my friends I have seen know Im worth it plus I gladley would give them discounts to
see ya soon

$$/hr is the right one. Above $$/hr, personal I won't do it. Won't hurt to give special at 1.5~2$/hr sometime to get more traffic.
SexyJazzy IMHO you have always had the right mix of pricing. I wouldn't change a thing. You have a great personality and are a lot of fun. Do whatever works for you best though and I wish you the very best.
If I see a provider listed at FS for $125 I am automatically suspicious. Something is making her drop that low....looks, weight, cold as a fish, etc. If I see someone listed at $300 I am equally suspicious.....cocky, arrogant, my pussy is better than everyone elses. Somewhere as someone suggested, there is a price that works best for your VALUE you have to offer. $125 for the best looking girl in the world is overpriced if she is shitty to be with. $300 is under priced if she makes you feel as if you are the end all of studs. Few providers are one or the other, and figuring out where you fit is marketing 101. There is no right or wrong answer as long as you are working the schedule you want to work and are staying as busy as you want to be.
$200 is just right for many and too little/much for others.
I've bargin shopped more than i've done high end. i've found very few repeats on the low end and none on the high end (high end for me was 3 bills)
For me you are the complete package. You keep very fair pricing IMHO, you have looks, a great attitude, and the ever elusive IOP and have always provided me with top notch service.
Thats what keeps me coming back
