How long do you typically wait for an agency to get back to you once you reach out? Same day? Within 48hrs?
 
Is this by text? One hour max. I send a "bump" if no reply. (This assuming you are texting during their normal hours)

In my experience, if they haven't replied in one hour, most likely they missed your text and they won't at all.
 
For same day bookings, most agencies will get back to you within an hour or less.

For pre-bookings, some agencies won't even look at requests until they are finished with their same day bookings and confirmations. Usually, even in that case, they will probably get back to you later in the day.
 
Interesting - I reached out to TP (call, text, and email) ytd but no response still.
Are you "black listed"?

Don't know TP. So response time whether same day or pre booking should be within 60mins. Sure you can bump at 30 and 60min. Any business of this field should be like this. Now if an independent, I think it was agreed here in one of the threads.

I received a response once in 3 mins one time and was asked if I could be there in 21 mins. Like NO. I am 45 mins away. Not TP btw.

For TP - I found sending them a email much faster. Wasn't for same day booking but never-the-less it was a email and they responded within 24HRS. Which reminds me - always wanted to see Cici again :love:.

Almost always book same-day with the big agencies, and by now 10 mins is when I start to think about alternatives! The faster ones are Mirage/DD/SFT and almost always within 5 mins the appointment is set! For the slower ones I might extent to 15 mins. Now of course that one thing is VERY key - high degree of flexibility :)

48 hours is what i give anyone whether it’s business or personal. I also reach out via phone text and email to give people options to get back to me and inform them it’s best to text for fastest response.
