@perfection: Consider offering an incentive for clients to book longer sessions.
Made-up math: Assuming that the current rate was $300/hr, and increasing by $50/hr:
Offer 90 minutes at $500, or 2 hours at $625-$650. Apply the full increase to any sessions of one hour or less. Your preferred clientele will be amenable, and you will weed out the bargain-hunter demographic.
A good analogy is a work-from-home marijuana dealer. I know a guy who has been selling weed since he was in high school in the mid 1970's. Most of his customers have been buying from him for 30+ years, many for longer than that. He doesn't sell to anyone under age 30, which in his case would mostly be the children of his long-term customers - their parents have to buy it for them. He doesn't sell any quantity smaller than an 'eight ball', (ie: one-eighth of an ounce, AKA 'a half-quarter'). He doesn't want the clientele that wants to buy smaller quantities than that. New customers can only be introduced to him by someone he trusts and has known for at least ten years, and only with approval in advance from a telephone call or personal visit. Anyone visiting his home for a purchase has to stay there for at least half an hour; strangers coming to a home at irregular hours and leaving a couple of minutes later get noticed by porch people. He lives in a residential area adjacent to the City of Toronto, with a cop as his neighbour on one side, and a Judge next door on the other side, and no one who doesn't need to know has any idea how he earns a living.
Even though people can now buy weed freely from dispensaries, his business hasn't suffered, in part because he can offer a better deal for a purchase in quantity, as opposed to smaller sales at the minimum amount.
I would think that, from an Escort's perspective, one two hour session is almost always preferable than two single hours or four half hours, so the longer session should be less expensive than the sum of the shorter ones.
