Hi

I feel I need to say something @ pollie YEs this is a numbers game. I am considering to pushing up my price. But lets see. I agree with Angie I deliver a service with class good company and all the rest. But yes we are feeling the pinch.

However I have seen JHB taking a huge dive in supporting us :-) I'm talking to those that still can afford!!!!

I now fly out most of the time to cape town and Durban to get my bills paid. Today is another loss to try and work just like yesterday. Regardless my rates.. phone is not evan ringing.

One thing is for sure I'm not dropping my rates for a cheaper dodgy service /space. No thanks

Exactly

I think 5 clients at r1000, is better than 2 at r1500, who may never return again. The entire game works on repeat clients. Find an airbnb that you can do short term rentals and share with another girl. You can bring room rate down to maybe R300 a day. R5000 less r1500.... Equals alot

I mean no disrespect... But the last time I shared with another girl I got evicted and my stuff disappeared. Also,who's gonna front upfront payments for us on air-bnb? Are you offering?

Thank you very much for the suggestions, but please know any girl worth her Salt has looked at any and every possible solution by now, that I can guarantee you!

Ps. My hours has been on 1k the whole day! Not even one enquiry. Lols

Ok so the ladies that charges r600 - R800 an hour also dont get phone calls. So please tell me as dodge as we have to go and still used to get 3 - 4 clients a day to zero maybe if we lucky 1 every second or 3rd day. What are we suppose to say or do

Some of the ladies are highly recommended/exceptionally beautiful and deserve high rates, however with the quantity of ladies there is more choice.
The ladies that I visit have known me for 10yrs plus and provide an exceptional service with lower rates and we are both happy with this.
Rates therefore have to be lowered somewhat together with the expenses to making the accassion.

If you not getting calls. Has nothing to do with your price. Means you not marketing yourself well. Drop a few classy shots in the gallery and on your status. That should get some attention.

I might start to that this could become an elitist game. With the ever rising inflation, disposable income is diminishing quickly. Most South Africans are in survival mode almost living hand to mouth, nothing extra per month for luxury items and entertainment.

Reading through the comments from the SP's and WG's it sound that they too are feeling the impact with the number of calls reducing daily, weekly and monthly. As they also have a cost of living expense to maintain it believe it is only logical for there fees to also go up.

Demand will always drive supply and eventually the pricing should balance out. Unfortunately this would mean that certain business venture will not survive due to the pricing vs. volume requirements.

Dropping fees just to get more calls is not the solution. I for would not like to be no. 10 for the day where the lady just goes through the mechanics of the deed.

Angie @1K you won't find a better deal on the planet

... im just saying its gonna become a elite game... the middle class men are gonna visit less which means your asking price actually loses you more customers by having high prices. Im sure by keeping prices lower you can have more customers per day and make more money then having 2 or 3 clients a day at lets say R1000-R1500. Im accountant this is just how i think haha.

This is a bit of tongue in cheek my man. Realistically, if you want them to come down to R1-1.5k, them you want the R2-3k ladies just because you want them to lower their price to fit your budget.

This is hardly an elite game. If anything, my cost per punt has just come down over the years in real terms with experience. I don't mean prices come down but there's so many wgs available and such good service. Sure, I'd like to book every single wg I think is hot just like I'd like to buy every single car I think is cool.

However, I'll only spend what I'm comfortable with and where I think there's value because I know there's no use fighting with Honda about the NSX being overpriced at R6mil when there's so many better cars and I could rather buy a Ferrari or Lamborghini or a faster more capable GTR but they have more buyers than those cars available because they think it's worth it and I simply don't. So I rather buy myself some GTR's at R2mil, save a ton, get a better ride and forget about the NSX.

I mean, I literally punt around R700 in Sandton now vs R1,2-1.5k about 10 years ago when I started and I'm having much better punts. Just today I saw a highly rated wg at R600 for the hour and it was great. See those that you see value in and let general economics and market correction take care of the rest.

This is true. Your price could have been R50 and you wouldn't get any calls if no one know about it.
