I was wondering how you guys feel about provider that take a few days to reply to text messages. I get personally annoyed and normally i will block them
This!! They can’t win!! It’s up to you to let them know when it’s ok to reply. They may have been off for a day or two. It’s up to you to be responsible for your own comfort.If they are indi providers they could take a while. We usually complain when they answer text messages mid session.
Why get so annoyed? Did you let them know a window and which to respond and they ignore that?I was wondering how you guys feel about provider that take a few days to reply to text messages. I get personally annoyed and normally i will block them
If she doesn't reply the same day, You block her?I was wondering how you guys feel about provider that take a few days to reply to text messages. I get personally annoyed and normally i will block them
Seriously - they don't reply to you right away, so you block them? So that if/when they do reply to you, you won't see it? A few days to get a response is not at all unusual. Here are some things to consider:I was wondering how you guys feel about provider that take a few days to reply to text messages. I get personally annoyed and normally i will block them
I usually text the girl around 9:00am when I see new posts on LL, assuming that means they are available that day. If they are already fully booked, I’d really will appreciate a quick heads-up so I know. Example yesterday I message a girl 10 minutes after she reposted her ads on LL and I’m yet to hear anything back from her. Most girls will message me the same day but some don’t.Seriously - they don't reply to you right away, so you block them? So that if/when they do reply to you, you won't see it? A few days to get a response is not at all unusual. Here are some things to consider:
* they might be working (on an extended date, and so keeping their focus on their client)
* they might be on vacation, or otherwise busy in their personal life
* they might be receiving a high volume of messages, and having trouble keeping up
* they might have expressed a preference to be reached out to via a different method of communication, and you might have missed that
If you were interested enough to reach out to them in the first place, then there shouldn't be a reason for you to not be interested whenever they get back to you. And if you're not good at pre-booking and working with a time pressure, you need to be narrowing your focus to people who make it clear in their advertising/on their websites that they can manage that.
But blocking them? You're just cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Exactly what I was going to say: some ads are automatically renew, all day, all night. You see the ad at 7 am... the girl is still sleeping.Maybe they don’t like the way you are reaching out or they are busy. Not every girl is sitting there with phone in hand. Some Leo list posts are automatic. So they may already have their bookings for the day. So seeing a post doesn’t mean the sp physically just posted.
Why would a girl automate her ad to post at 7 am? Doesn't that waste advertising money, cuz she's paying to advertise to guys who message her and then she doesn't reply?Exactly what I was going to say: some ads are automatically renew, all day, all night.

And again, even if some girls will reply the same day, it's not all girls. You have girls who pre-book, you have girls who do same day booking.
Certain times of day are less expensive. I asked the same question beforeWhy would a girl automate her ad to post at 7 am? Doesn't that waste advertising money, cuz she's paying to advertise to guys who message her and then she doesn't reply?
Many of you seem extremely self important.I tested a well-reviewed (one may say a forum favourite) SP back in late August, and I never got a reply. I took that as a sign that she was either busy (work, life, etc) or wasn't interested. My text was polite, asking if she had any availability.
That is, until last Friday - nine months after I originally texted, right out of the blue stating that she was available for the next few hours.
Honestly, that's unprofessional and could have led to an issue. For THAT reason alone I am considering blocking her number, and that may go for anyone working with/for her. Not because she didn't answer within a couple of days, but due to the above.
It’s not that serious.If this had been, say, a roofing company that contacted me a year after I got a quote from them (I emailed them saying I wasn't interested in their company), then that email would be reported as spam and the sender blocked.
I moved on from both. I found different, professional SPs and a better roofing company.
