Ladies, serious question.

I've had this question and a couple of new guys asked me this also, sometimes we see for example, a posted hourly rate, then there's a rate listed in a review, a rate listed on P411 and a rate listed on BP...and all 4 hourly rates are different. Now, I'm a salesman by trade so I have no problem with going with the lowest published rate, HOWEVER, I do NOT wish to insult any lady or cause friction as most don't either.

What would be the best way without compromising security to both parties, to confirm the rate? I do not want to short anyone but at the same time, I along with everyone else, have budget concerns. I have no problem with confirming the rate but tell us the best way to communicate this to you. This is a way for all of us to learn without trying to be a cheapskate.

Thanks!
For myself, my website. No matter where I advertise, I always guide an interested gentleman to my website.
I don't offer specials or discounts (unless the gentleman has seen me several times, pre-2014). I can understand how a guy can be confused by different rates here and there.

Guys always get confused when the little head does the thinking for the big head.. But it is a good question with a good answer.

Just my 2 cents worth: on occasion only an hourly rate is posted and without a personal website to go to what's the preferred method of asking for multi hour discounts other than just coming right out and asking.

Yeah RL has brought up a good topic . Sometimes you see an add here in provider listings. You look at the showcase and it might say $$$ hr . You look on P411 and it I have seen the same lady there as high as $$$$$ . Then you look at her reviews and see as low as $$ and so on . Now I'm really interested in the lady until I see the $$$$$ , not interested to much in the $$$ when I see $$ and $$.50 in her reviews . The problem is it's confusing and makes an approach awkward as hell . The ladies really need to think about consistency because there's no telling how much business they never even knew they missed because of the high ass price on p411 and even here . From what I've expereinced a very high % on p411 have a significantly higher price there so to me p411 is practically useless for booking .

P411 keeps jumping up in price in unreasonable increments , combined with the fact the ladies post higher prices there making it useless for booking has caused me to decide not to renew there when my membership expires . Who knows how many more guys feel the same way . The ladies are essentially reducing their own exposure because of this price structure and also crippling P411's booking ability . The more guys that catch on to this the more guys are going to give it up . I thought P411 was meant for safer booking , not price gouging . We have 4 providers listed on P411 for this market area and none even require p411 so what good is it for 150 bucks with all things above considered . I've never once been asked for any credential related to P411 and even when I tried to offer some to a lady she didn't want to see it LoL .
I have a rate on my eccie showcase but on the rest of my sites I donot have a price list I have the guy talk with me about that in private

Me personally my rates are based on what u want and where we meet.
Typically i may say $ hour but if we meet at the studio ...that rate would not include tip...and rate of tip depends on not only what u want but what u smell like or look like if u are well groomed and smell nice it may be cheaper if u stink and have musty balls a provider is EXPECTING that you will make it worth it...and thus need to pay more money...outcall rates would be more because its inconvenient at times especially if u have a incall location.
I cant speak for everyone but i will say another reason maybe the clientele on each site...if i post on bp ... I can expect to get less than 300 so i would post rate less than that amount
If i post on upscale gentlemen sites (really upscale rich gentlemen) i definitely post what i think im worth.
Im not greedy im always open to negotiations but ANYTHING LESS THAN $ doesnt work for me.
As far as a solution...
My advice...whatever the lowest amount u saw go with it!!!if she posted it...she is willing to do it for that amount no matter where you saw the rates if it was posted its acceptable.
Destiny, did you work for an agency at any point?
Many times when the bill was a reasonable
Amount you are asked to review with a higher
Rate. When people do this it prices many out of the market.
Their money is made on the repeats and referrals.
Hard to get new customers when you are scared to call the first time.
And the nature of the business is so personal and most providers and
Hobbyist are so kind that no one wants to hurt the others feelings.

For me, I try to be very consistent in making sure my rates are the same any where I've posted. In My opinion girls who don't keep up with things as much are usually the ones who work quit often, post on any site they can find and are more for quantity of clientele rather than quality. More professional providers will keep up with or direct you to the right place. So there's no quoting and no confusion. Quality over Quantity!!!!!. I try to keep everything up to parr. Although sometimes spell check doesn't work in my favor. Lol

I think a lot of times ladies don't update their information in the various places and I wanted to highlight that. I don't think any quality guy would ever want to short a woman for her time BUT no one wants to pay a dime more than they have to for anything, service or product, hobby world is not excluded.

There's a lot of good women here and I don't think any of the good guys would ever want to short them even a dollar, I know I wouldn't. But we do have to budget our funds so I will always go with the lowest rate I see, I have no problem with that. If there is a dispute though, I'd rather it be before the appointment time. Ladies, would it be considered rude to say and confirm the rate before the the appointment? This seems to be the reasonable response to make sure every one is on the same page and no one gets offended with the donation amount.

Can we agree on that point? If not, please point out what needs to be done.
I would want the man to go to my showcase or my website to see what my rates are. Not old ass reviews, as some will do.

Sometimes I will throw a special out, which does not happen very much. If I do such a thing, the dates of said special are on the ad. Some guys try to pull the wool after the date and still try to get away with a cheaper rate. That will chap my ass.

Riley, I am with you on quality over quantity all the way.

The fact that the hobby used to be an afforded luxury has been pissed into the wind.
Yes, there are cheaper rates, but the cheaper are ran through more frequently in my book
