I also hope she makes a shitload of money and personally contributed to the cause. Having seen her 24 hours ago, I wanted to provide some additional comments on some knocks that Gina received.
1.
REGRET - In hindsight, she acknowledged that her labeling Austin the City of Flakes was not in her best interests and regrets making such a derogatory generalization. She was understandably irritated by having 11 out of 12 pre-booked clients cancel with little notice or NCNS. She booked an extended trip and prepaid for a 4 star hotel based on the interest generated by her advanced ads and the pre-bookings. She admits she could have handled it better and softened her message and seduced and enticed us to see her versus.
2.
LACK OF CURRENT REVIEWS - Some of the posters pointed out that she only had a handful of reviews on Eccie and none of them were current. She is very active on another board with approximately 50 glowing reviews and quite a few in the past few months. I am a member of the other board (I don't think I am allowed to refer to it directly under Eccie guidelines so I will be vague).
3.
APPEARANCE - On her website and ads, Gina has blurred her face. She told me she does this to remain discreet. I can tell you that she is extremely cute and drop dead gorgeous.
4.
BODY BUILD - The pictures in her ad are very accurate. The ones with her huge breasts overflowing out of the low cut zebra top are only a couple of months old. She told me that she has lost 30 pounds from when some of the older photos on her website were taken.
5.
RATES - She was taken back by the reaction to her original ad rate of $300/hr. She is used to getting $400 in California and felt she had reduced the rate sufficiently for the Austin market. When she received the initial feedback from her City of Flakes posting, she reduced the rate to $230 on Friday and settled in at $250 today.
6.
LOCATION - She didn't have any local contacts and booked a room at a 4 star hotel that wasn't located downtown. That hotel website stated they were located at 290 and I-35 which we all associate with the Vagina Triangle and undesirable incall location. The hotel is located south of downtown at 290/71 and I-35 and if you don't mind the drive to South Austin is a great incall location.
7. AGE - It is what it is. She is over 45 and there are providers younger than 25. Each of us has different tastes. I personally enjoy both and occasionally having a wild time with an oversexed, experienced, self-confident, mature cougar rocks my boat. Some of us are willing to pay a premium for that experience, whereas others are willing to pay a premium for a tight athletic young spinner.
ECCIE COMMUNITY PROJECT (AUSTIN AMBASSADOR PROGRAM )- I am amazed how much attention this thread has received, but I think something positive could come out of this. To help out visiting providers, I think it would be great if there was a sticky thread that provided them the following information:
-- Prevailing rates for types of service (GFE, PSE, Greek), age, body build
-- Preferred locations / hotel recommendations
-- Advice on advertising review specials for the 1st 3 guys to post a review at the beginning of their tour.
-- Provide links to current reviews on other sites if they are not active on ECCIE (not sure this is allowed)
-- Advice on listing menu options on their ads
-- Provide photos including a couple that are very recent
-- Invite them to any upcoming socials. I know some visiting providers actually time their visit to coincide with a social event - great for generating business and getting the word out.
--
It just comes down to realistic pricing. She adjusted her rate as advised and mongers have started booking her. That is a good thing.
I'm sure she is top shelf as a mature providers. Now that she's adjusted to market rate she has the opportunity to show it which she is doing.
The attacks on her age etc.. by some mongers are merely knee jerk reactions to her slamming Austin.
The bottom line is being priced accordingly. She now is and all is well in the world.
I hope she makes a shitload of money as a result.
