I thought I might post this to help some of the newer members (and some veteran's) understand how to really stand out when contacting a provider for the first time.
1. Read her website and ad for preferences on method of first contact (phone, pm, email, website form, etc.) - Follow her request
2. Check her reviews and website for the services she provides, her rates, and general times available.
3. Send her a message that includes the info in the following sample message (all ficticious info).
"Hi my name is John. I saw your reviews on eccie and would like to make an appointment with you. The following providers have seen me recently and can be contacted as my references. Atxdream http://www.eccie.net/member.php?u=3859 and Naughty Jezabelle http://www.eccie.net/member.php?u=3716. They know me as John. I am a 47 year old white male with dark hair - 6'1", 205 lbs and a tribal tattoo on my arm. My phone # is 210-555-1234 and my email address is john@email.com. (All this info will help the screening process go seamless - or provide p411 code instead, also lets her know that you are serious about seeing her).
I particularly liked the activities listed in the review by hobbyisthandle (gives the girl a heads up on what you like & that you paid attention to the services she provides). I hope to see you on Wednesday around 3pm for 1 hour at your incall. If that doesn't work with your schedule, Thursday morning will also work for me. I look forward to your response.
~John"
Other ladies are welcome to chime in on what they look for in a first contact. I know that when I get a message similar to above, it takes total precedence over an email that has "Hey", "How much?", or "When can I see you?" as the entire message.
