Screening*

I am sure there is something along the lines of what I am going to ask somewhere here on the forum but I spent half hour looking and nothing

I am fairly new to all this I have a friend who is recommending her clients to me and while that has been helpful to me I want to branch off and do start on my own (own clients etc...)

I have noticed that in order to be safe when meeting with someone the client must have 2 references -

How do I go about screening my own clients? Is there a website I go too? This is the one part I have gotten stuck on plenty of times, and although my friend has been doing this for a very long time she never seems to want to give me helpful information.

Ladies, how do you do your screening?


Thank you in advanced for those who have read and replied.

If the guy contacts you through this site or escorts you can click on their profile to see if they've written reviews for any provider(s) that they have seen. You can then contact the providers to inquire about him. Or ask him for the name/e-mail/phone number of the provider(s) he has seen.

If he is new and hasn't seen anyone you can ask for him employment info and contact him at work (discreetly, of course) and search for his name, phone #, e-mail, address, etc. online.

Thanks again!!
There are a few avenues you can go through to screen.

1) Definitely ask for reference from a provider.

Cross check (google) all the info he gives you, even her email and make sure the email/phone number of the provider shows up on a site & her name is correct

2) If they haven't seen anyone I always request that they let me verify their work and if they are not ok with that then I also suggest seeing their I.D. and a paystub as proof of their employment...basically, this lets me know he's not L.E. I have lost appts. from men who can't provide me information but that's ok. Better to be safe than sorry.

3) The phone number they call you from can be googled as well. Some sites let you know if any complaints on that particular number, if the owner of that number's information is confidential, I don't see them. I have paid small fee of .90 to get their info. On one occasion the phone number came back from some srgt. at some precinct so it's worth checking.

4) If you receive an email then you can also google their email address, that should give you a little information.

The best and most reliable way to check someone out is with a reference from a provider that you can verify is a known provider.

I kind of went through what you are going through getting started in this business. Started with another provider who has been in the business a while but she just didn't know much so I started asking my clients where they find providers, that helped me find out places to post myself, etc. Your clients have good information to help guide you. Don't be afraid to ask them, that's the way I got most of my help.

Hope the information helps you.
GiGi, I will definitely be coming to NOLA soon to see you!
