No phone numbers just emails...

[Willow Samoan]

How do you guys feel about escorts removing their phone number from any type of advertising or websites? Do you think it takes too much effort to contact an escort by email first, so she can then decide if she wants to give you her phone number? Or are you okay with this, you'd do anything the escort asks? To the escorts, do you do this and how has it worked for you?

Of course if regulars choose, they can have their number put on the escorts phone(if the escort is okay with this) so they can bypass this step.

You guys are the one's who partake in our services, so your input is crucial.

Thanks in advance for your opinions.

I would think that if it is a new SP, it would seem a bit odd (and possibly a scam) if there is no phone number.

Also, if it is strictly email first with no assurance of a meeting, it would be likely that many would not bother and move on to those easily contacted via text/phone call.

In my experience (and opinion and all the usual caveats...) there are 2 different types of hobbiests. Those that want to meet someone "right now" and those that plan ahead, I am not suggesting that hobbiests are exclusively one way or another...but more predominantly one way or the other. For the plan ahead hobbiest, I think email contact is fine, in fact, as a plan ahead hobbiest myself, it is actually preffered (for me), as long as the emails are responded to with some level of promptness. For the "right now" hobbiest I think phone is better. I would never assume that email only is a scam.

If your interested in some input from an sp her it is. To be fair we do need some ability to filter out the wierdo's. I also don't need calls 24/7 and I don't have a second line so anyone that knows me could reverse search my number and see my ads that I put out if I put my number in my ads.

I don't think no number listed is a big deal. No number at all is kind of strange. Like setting everything up by email only is sketchy. It makes me wonder what the lady is doing that she can't afforda cheap throw away cellphone

I prefer if an SP publishes the phone number. That tells me they are open for business.

I'm sure there is a downside with throwing a phone # to the public. It's a risk and I'm sure the SP gets their daily fair share of stupidity. Nothing is perfect.

Email does not work for me. Phone or text is more immediate and allows me to schedule far better. I try to fit in my hobbying between other activities and can not plan ahead. When on the road, I can not easily get to email so I need phone or text.

I'm not a book a day in advance person, I book the day. I won't see a provider if it's just email, seems like too much work. I would rather just text and get an immediate response. That's just me tho

 

[justfor]

Like Ryan, I am a plan- ahead guy too, so email is not a big problem for me.

 

[Viggo Rasmussen]

Whatever works best for you. :thumb:
If business is already strong it's a good way to eliminate the same day bookings.

 

[Willow Samoan]

This definitely helps me put things into perspective. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Here's some food for thought, for sure.

Thanks again!

I too rarely if ever book in advance, but I'll note some sps who only do email also want a laundry list of things from me like referalls, etc. I avoid them unless absolutely necessary. I also don't like calling random people to talk about sex acts, not comfortable with it, and most environments I'm in aren't conducive of it. Txt is fast, quick, gets you your answer on services, availability, and into a booking.

You lose a large market segment doing only emails, but if you're a low volume provider who prefers regulars and only a few new clients occasionally. Email is likely fine.

From what I recall you Peachy seem to be a quality provider, with upmarket rates, so you're already catering to a select crowd. If your advertising is concentrated on these boards, vs BP then you've multiple avenues for contact, PM, and email. You're in a strong position to forgo the less cumbersome open phone number route. But if you want to exponentially grow your business, you'll need to have the number out there to be more accessible. Perhaps you only do it for a week or two when you want to bring in a ton of new business, and then (assuming you're a quality provider) a good number of those new clients should convert to regulars. So you only need to run your marketing campaigns with a public number as the need arises. The regulars can contact you via phone and, you're not constantly contending with a barrage of silly txts.

Lately I have barely been able to keep up with the amount of e-mails and booking requests through my website and haven't touch my cell except to give directions and buzz/suite numbers. I am really enjoying being able to take the time to get to know gents before seeing them and e-mails have allowed me to do this. I also find it just as convenient, as my e-mails go straight to my cell. I am fortunate this has not dissuaded anyone yet, or at least not to the best of my knowledge.

Personally I never contact someone without a phone number in the ad unless that sp is highly reviewed and I don't want to miss her just because of lack of a phone number. I think majority of the hobbyist want quick replies about service, rates, location and appointments, nobody wants to waste time waiting for email replies.

 

[bacchanalia]

I am in the group that books last minute, and would likely skip anyone without a phone number, despite having had a fantastic session with Peachy in the past. Too many variables can go wrong in trying to plan ahead for a session.

 

[OldNerd]

I usually avoid sp/mp without phone numbers. One of the reasons that I don't like to check my private emails from work, as I don't know who can be watching including IT. Same goes to my corporate phone.

I don't have a problem with SMS only option.

 

[jjw99]

I like to plan ahead but I'm a shy guy if I can't text I don't go
I just hate talking on a phone
and I like the number to do a search

 

[out4fun]

I'm a text and go kind of guy. Two or three texts with the right vibe and am in my car and on the way.

You have to think about what the post Nordic-model scene will be. E-mails are more easily attained, your IP address can be traced, etc. Meanwhile you can just throw away your cheap hobby phone, and destroy it. Even if they get the SP's phone, all they have on there is your alias and nothing else.

Emails can be very anonymous as well. Any Gmail/Hotmail account can be filled in with fake info. IP tracing would be a huge undertaking to bust a single client and you can email through any proxy server which can be found online easily.

Yet, there is electronic info with the purchase of the phone and all the vouchers as well is easily attainable even if paid cash. They can tell where and when all the transactions related to the phone took place. There would be video of you in the store, etc.

If the cops really want to get you, they can through either form. And they will probably set up stings via phone/text, via BP, etc. This is where research and reviewing is really going to come in play.

I think that is all depends on the type of SP and the type of client she wants. If she is a same day worker, then phone is the best. If she is a planning type, then email is the best.
