How many providers offer a discount for reviews?

i don't know what works better but i did one time make a deal to get a discount on a session in the future and then it seemed she was always busy or not able to meet me. i did this twice and it was not a big deal. both times it involved laptops that i had upgraded out of and felt it was mutually beneficial till i never got the discount. now i just sell them and get my sessions the old fashion way. i pay for them!

anyway remember ladies if you offer the discount on a later session when the guy calls back try not to put him on the back burner. if he did you a favor you might want to put him first.

I agree with Tom Cat.....
and,
Reveiws should not be allowed to be bought.

Once again I will sing the praises of Gina at Private Connections. I have been a client of hers FOREVER. As such I have a Frequent Reviews Discount availible. When I choose to use it, I ask for the $50 discount. Then once I review the lady and send her an email with the link, then it is reinstated.

If I take you up on a review offer, I will write you a review. I will be perfectly honest and let the gentlemen know what I find.

The reason I like the agency review system so much is that I am not locked into one provider for the discount. Now, I will not try to negotiate with a lady, if I can afford her rate I will pay it. If it takes a discount for it to come to what I believe a reasonable amount is, then I will wait for the discount.

Would the ladies ever offer a discount to someone who wrote a negative review about them? If so, then I don't see a problem with it.

Otherwise, like TomCat alluded to, it amounts to nothing more than Quid Pro Quo. As hobbyists, we depend on factual, honest reviews to determine how best to spend our time and money. I, and I'm sure others would agree, don't want the Reviews section turning into a collection of "paid advertisements" like those you see in magazines disguised as an article hawking some new product.

ETA: A better idea, ladies, would be to offer discounts to repeat clients in order to keep them coming back.

There are many times providers think they deserve a fantastic review just for showing up...

I also agree with pm, BTW, Sabrina, You do not have any bad reviews on this site. That being said, should you provide a "steller" experience for a hobbyist, in his opinion, for a discounted rate for promising to do a review, and he does not do it, then it was a waste for you and I would not see him again, on the other hand, you do that same stellar experience for him at your normal donation, offer a discount on the next session, if he puts up a review, and he will as he wants that discount because he definitely will see you again. Just my thoughts.

Is this like uuhhmm.....PAYING THE PIPER ?

No.....No.....not me !!!
Me no pay the piper....

It does take about 2 or 3 hours to write a great detailed long review with pics from her showcase and everything. I like to do it within 24-hours of the session so everything is still fresh in my mind. I have never wrote a Bad review. I guess i just been lucky that all my sessions been great. and of course i do alot of research. I would just ask one thing, if ya'll like the reviews, let us know and make a fuss over it. Guy's love attention just like ya'll do. IMHO, I would love the ladies input on how i did and hope i did good. I also saw something that i though was pretty cool. a lady has her reviews listed/Linked on her Ad & Website with the guy's Handle like this.

Example: Review #3 Copierguy0

Guy's see that list of buddy's that been hittin that and think, hey she must be good, let me get my name on that list. lol (Except SP Hunter, we don't want to know that he been there) lol
