Question for SPs: Booking in advance vs Booking within 24-48hrs

[SlickRickBBD]

Have a question anyone can answer, but would especially like the input of the SPs that are on here - would love if they chimed in .
I am constantly on the road with work. I’m literally home in the GTA (if lucky) maybe 2 days a week. My line of work is good but definitely could and wish I would be making more $. Like most in this economy these days, I’m making enough to get by. I usually budget myself and even sometimes have to save my expendable income to see a particular provider when given a chance. My schedule though is very fluid. I can literally get a call and be on my out of the city in few hours. so my question when booking is this.....

Which is better for client to do?

Book an appointment well in advance with and possibly cancel (if need be) within 24hrs

or

Book closer to the desired date day, which be 24 -48hrs of the request?

I’m constantly fighting myself with this. It’s tough for me as I don’t want be constantly booking and having to cancel or reschedule, making myself look flaky. The time between booking and the actual anything can happen and can be assigned out of town at any time. With that said I know It can be difficult both personally and professionally for SPs to book on a short time span. Don’t have a problem putting down a deposit when booking as long the provider is reputable. I just hate constant losing them because I may get called away at a whim. This is part of the reason I tend to book more with agencies and less indy. So what’s the better of two evils Lol?

I’m sure from the agency’s perspective they’d rather you keep any appointment you book. If you can only commit within 24 hours, they’d tell you to only book within 24 hours.

The issue of course is that you won’t get the pick of the litter. If there’s a girl you like, your odds of booking her in advance are obviously better.

The girls can speak for themselves, but I imagine having a solid, full, reliable schedule is the priority over seeing any particular client.

Except me and you, of course, whom they can’t wait to see even if there’s a risk we cancel.

(real answer: book ahead only for girls you’re wild about, and cancel if you need to with as much notice as possible. But mostly you’re stuck just winging it - sometimes fantastic girls only pop on schedule last minute anyway)

I’d say closer to the date because they may eventually write you off as a serious booker if you continually cancel even if it’s within the cancellation period. Just be extra flexible when you’re booking and if it’s someone you’ve seen before or want to see again you can always let them know your predicament and/or ask if they have a preference. I’d like to think we’re a pretty understanding bunch

Thanks for your consideration and asking of this question!
