Lower Rates....One Year Ago... ?? So confused :(

WM,

"Glittered" was not literal, but more of a metaphorical phrase to imply a young, beautiful, educated provider in gorgeous attire in a 3-4 star hotel. I don't wear glitter, I wear Chanel and practically nothing else....maybe a sequin VS bikini...that's all that glitters.

I make an effort to bring my clients the best. Regarding the lowering of my rates, when I was advertising on, my volume of men wanting to see me on ASPD increased by 30-40% overnight and they flocked at me when I advertised around $240.00/hour GFE. Men don't like drama or mean girls. They like fresh girls with a good head on their shoulders.

Glad to see you back on the boards.

Best wishes to you!

Angelina

AA,
Regardless of what you set your rates at. Keep in mind. Men WILL go elsewhere.
You lowering your rates will not keep them from enjoying the company of other women. It's just how men are. (based on your response in your initail post).
Lastly, being a glittered provider is one of the worst ways you can look when your client shows up. (again based on your initial response).
No hobbyists needs to return to the office nor home with glitter on them.

Enjoy your stay in SA. Seems you will be a busy bee.
In which I can understand 100% where PreciousB is coming from regrding his statements.
I work with all budgets and I would be more than happy to bring smile to your face I am very positive and nurturing....definitely drama-free!

Thanks for your sweet words, Precious B!

I did not mean that as a spite in any way whatsoever.

I knew that there were going to be enough people beating on your door at that rate that it would be fruitless to even try to get a call in edgewise (and your " and was swampted to the "T"" comment proved me correct.)

I'm glad I was not one of the masses trying to contact you because I didn't want you to have to contact me and polite tell me your dance card was full.

By all mean, I'd LOVE to meet you. Your a very HOT commodity that alot of people are trying to get hold of. You're doing good girl. Originally Posted by Precious_b

It also depends on the hobbiest's budget and how often he wants to hobby. Use the same budget and hobby a little less or go with the lower prices and hobby more,

I was smart enough not to try to contact you (even though I REALLY wanted to) when I saw your rate. Originally Posted by Precious_b

AA, you know I was just kidding about the discount remark
You are correct. My heart bleeds for those trying to come up with money to play, but then again, there is a point where too low is low for me to hang up my SATX hobby hat and forget about bringing services at that rate. Austin is so different. Men in Austin pay $280-$400/hour, no problem. If the girls lower their rates, men expect it all of the time which is why I refuse to lower my rates. It sets me apart.

No worries, and I did not feel you labeled me as a commodity. In fairness, wouldn't the crowd hover over the women charging $150/hr? When I advertised for $300/90, I had "enough" to fill a full week of clientele being low-volume. On the flip note, I did not receive the "hundreds" of messages, texts, e-mails and calls a girl might get advertising at $150/hour. If I were a guy, seeing a girl at $100- 150/hour, it would be getting a basic massage and the quality of the girl/service wouldn't really matter at that point. When it's priced that low, men don't really seem to care. It would be a simple release. I am so astounded that what I value to be sacred and beautiful is being sold so low.....

I know the lower rates make some of you gentlemen happy, but for me it wasn't even worth it one year ago at $180/hr when I first came on the ASPD boards when no one knew who I was....and one year later....I say, "forget about it....I am keeping my rates the same and not budging"....

Some thoughts...

Respectfully,

Angelina

So if what you're doing is sacrificing or disposing of your woman-hood in the process then it's just a matter of making the most of it....

You don't mind the sacrifice if it's for as much as you can get rather than less so....

There's a term for that, and it's not prostitute; it's mercenary.

Keep on amusing us with these silly but revealing statements.

btw...you are cute even if you are silly.

AA might charge more for whatever reason she requires. As someone new to here, I've been regularly paying 400 to get the UTR upscale and gorgeous ladies that San Antonio has only in small numbers. San Antonio has always had hoards of young girls from the wrong side of town, but to get someone I'm satified with I pay what the market is anywhere. Good for you AA!
Gladius,

I adore Robert Redford and it warms my heart that you chose his image as your avatar photo (which is why I will refrain from a mean-spirited response).

I don't think you get what I'm trying to say. I maximize my value because I place a higher value on my "woman-hood" which is broken down into many things without having to get into details. Below, I'll do my best to explain:

I place a higher price when I advertise for reasons like having a solid reputation backed by stellar reviews. Rates, in my case are based on unique services, reviews, physique/appearance, atmosphere/incall, ability to converse intellectually and engage with each client, and lastly, "woman-hood". I am not sure why you would consider that a "joke"?!?! There is nothing wrong with me not wanting to "give the milk away for free" and charge what is reasonable in this market. Also, citing what I feel is sacred and what I choose to assess a higher value is valid and not silly by any means. You are the "silly" and "amusing" one You wanting to undermine me/my "woman-hood" as a person is offensive, so your response paints the type of person you are. I'm a strong girl, I'll stand my ground and respectfully disagree with you. The real joke would be on me if I let you get away with your amusing response to a thread I'd consider to be a rather intellectual and engaging debate of the subject of rates in SATX.

I don't think my assessment was silly or amusing at all, but rather a curiosity of rates in San Antonio relative to rates in Austin and other cities nation-wide. That's all. I am intrigued by your posting history. It explains a lot.

Sorry you didn't get it and I thank you for your compliment in calling me "cute".

Respectfully,

Angelina

Hi Brooke,

Good question. Concerning hotels, I have early check-in and late check-out privileges so my access to the room is almost a full day. I see just one client in the afternoon to early evening and then rest up/shower/sleep during the evening and will see a second client the next morning before I check out. It's very simple and not too complicated. Most sessions I have are 2-3 hour sessions, so I always see a profit regardless. It's totally worth it and I gain hotel VIP status.

I generally pay more than $150.00 for hotels... probably closer to $200 - $250.00. I have a successful career outside of the hobby, so any profit I make as Angelina is just a supplement to what I earn in my career outside of the hobby. I feel safer in nicer hotels and feel there is more security.

Hi AA, Welcome back to SA. I'm sure all the boys are excited to have you here. I was just thinking how do you do it? By that question I mean you provide a 4-5 star hotel which should cost you about 150 or so. Then you see only 1 client @ a rate of 300. Wouldn't that leave you only about 150 anyways? Just wondering what your secret is,lol. Originally Posted by seXXXy Brooke

I respect gentleman who hold "quality over quantity" with a very high regard and is willing to pay a little more for what you cite, "UTR upscale and gorgeous ladies".

So, I find your response refreshing in that it reaffirms that I was right all along to be charging what I feel is fair and not pressured lower my rates.
