The Time Has Come For The $150 Review Discount

There's a couple of pretty good box wines. And the container is biodegradable and the spout reusable. A huge plus in my book. Save Mother Earth!

On topic:
If it dies, it dies (in my Ivan Drago voice). This is the whiniest rant about reviews that I've seen in a long time.

GS.....remember, your ass is mine when you return to the states.

Just my .02. Reviews are for:

(Providers' side)
1) relevance.
Many times, hobbyists has LONG TDLs. A recent review "reminds" them of the provider and book her. Just like an ad. (Hopefully, bring more biz) New providers enter the game every day. So, providers need to be relevant to have more chances of building regulars. Sometimes with a review special, the provider can cut the line on the TDL.

2) Legitimizing new providers.
Just like BP risks but with higher rates. If there was a bad time with a lower rate BP provider, most of the time no buyer's remorse. (It is just $) But, a unknown provider with a higher rate, the buyer's remorse has a greater chance of happening. (It is $$$)

(Reviewer's Side)
1) Give back to the hobby community (Especially, the No reviews)
2) PA Access

My only tip on setting rates: if your phone is not ringing as often as you like, your rate is too high. If it is ringing off the hook, your rate is too low. Whatever works best for you, stick with it.

An example would be: Many of the Dallas girls coming to Houston for better business opportunities. Many have said that the going rate is lower in Dallas. So they come to Houston to get better rates for their time.

As for the hobbyists taking advantage of review specials without writing reviews. Shame on Ya'll

For providers, maybe only offer review specials to "established" reviewers with recent reviews or have a track record of writing "review special" reviews.

or provide the review special and if they write the review, offer them the same rate for the next session within a week or two. With this you provide an incentive for them to write a review and guarantee another session. (This may work better for newbies providers)

As for the discounts, it is up to the provider to decide the amount of the discount and the hobbyists to accept the amount discounted. This is how the free market works. The market will balance itself out, especially around the beginning of the month. Of course, there are the outliners hobbyists that would pay whatever for exclusivity.
