This is a really good question. If I get ignored while trying to schedule it's rare that I ever try back. There's just too many to choose from to tolerate being ignored. But later, after going through a few appointments, maybe months later I'll see a great review for her and I'm back to wanting her. If I get ignored twice, fuck it. But professional booking skills, while great, won't necessarily kill the deal.

You need to give directions competently. You need to have moderate to decent command of the English language, spelling, and grammar. You need to do what you say you will and do it when you say you will do it.
If you can do that, and have even halfway decent BCD skills, you will standout in the business. For reasons that I'll never fathom, it seems like these vary basic skills that any employee of any type of business (from a sno-cone stand to Microsoft) should have evade a large majority of providers.
