at the end of the day, sex and companionship is a physical activity that requires providers to be in the best mood/health to be able to deliver perfect romantic encounters. i'm not slutshaming when i say this, but just from a practical standpoint, seeing 5-7 clients back to back in one shift is not an optimal way to do this type of work and still be able to enjoy it. and the SP enjoying her work is KEY to a good experience for the client. attraction is a two way street. personally, i like to devote both mental and physical attention to all my clients, and most of ways the agencies operate - although potentially better for the client's wallet - does not facilitate this.
the agency model is premised on quantity over quality - they have overhead, rent, laundry, bookers, drivers, having to manage multiple, potentially flakey women simultaneously, etc, where their bread and butter relies on the 30 min/$160 bookings. quality encounters will always be compromised in these scenarios.
speaking from my own experience, i get specific requests from clients who have done their research and they have booked me specifically because they want to see ME. indies who have mastered a unique form of branding and can convey specific personas that stand out from the masses will tend to build repeat client bases that aren't the type of undesirable 'hobbyist' who tend to see pussy as interchangeable. most indie SPs know this. most agency marketing seems to promote the idea that their SPs are somewhat interchangeable (pressuring clients to see one girl when another isn't available even when the experience could be very different).
and honestly, as i'm sure has been already mentioned (i haven't bothered to read this entire thread), men on here should stop acting as if they have a right to sexually access any woman's body just because she happens to offer it for sale.
that other guy earlier was right, you guys are the criminals now. you should be glad you can even access the diverse range of beautiful women in this city at such variable rates. if this was new york, you'd be looking at 500-700+ USD/hour easy.
most agencies in toronto haven't raised their rates in probably over a decade. that's fine, agencies no longer dictate the standards in this industry. indies have raised standards across the board in so many ways that have improved our working conditions over the years (stringent screening, demanding better client behaviour, blacklisting/sharing bad client lists, deposits, etc), and most of it is due to the ease of direct marketing via the internet and cutting out the middleman. all the successful agency escorts move onto becoming indies eventually. i wouldn't be surprised to see the agency model start dying out altogether soon, or at least significantly reducing in its power to determine how this industry operates.
