How come when people complain about interest rates and the cost of living nobody jumps in to tell them to move to a different country? people are just venting. You'll charge what you want to charge and they'll pay what they want to pay(a concept that just keeps on getting repeated on this site like it isn't the most obvious thing ever)my gosh...

If say checkers doubled their prices for the groceries you bought just because they delivered them would you bother to buy from them. It's a losing business strategy.

Have you ever stopped to consider that traveling lady reserves the right to do so on her own terms, because she might not be desperate for the amount you (or any punter) deem sufficient? She obviously charges more to make it worth her while and effort. There are enough women on here who will suit your budget if you look hard enough.
If you can't come to me, and I have to make my way to you (taking time out of my day both ways), of course I'm going to attempt to capitalise on it. If you don't want to pay more, no worries. Then I'll do bookings from where I work.

Off the topic but relevant

There was a survey done recently {Google it) that the cost of delivery is up to 80% higher than buying in store

Wg don't sit around starring at the ceiling darling. And business has picked up darlings.

As a SP' I choose what makes me happy and comfortable with when it comes to my rates.

Rather don't complain as it makes you sound stingy but rather move onto a lady more within your prepared budget you are happy to spoil a lady with .

My rates are high as I prefer to stay exclusive and meet two gents per week or 1 per week. (Have plenty of work... that allows me not to have to stare at any wall)

Most SP are intelligent and have extra business for income. ...just saying, don't put us all in the same box but rather appreciate each SP.

Never had a complaint and get tips from 500 to 2000 up and that's on top of my rate.

@Gabby, I'm not stingy, you are missing the point. If a lady charges R3000 an hour in call and for travel she charges R4000 and I want to book her that price would make sense. What I was referring to is the non-correlation between incall and outcall rates - three and a half times incall rate seems disproportionate that's all.

PS, you say I'm stingy, but I've booked you at your "high" rates - to prove this to you I can tell you that all you were talking about was your sewing business and your dog which I had to listen to after having paid such a "high" fee. Should have booked someone that was more interested in delivering a good service at a "higher" rate. So maybe I am stingy if I opted for you ;).

I didn't Google the survey but I do check prices of things on the franchise site compared to Uber Eats and Mr.D. I do see some that are 30-50% more and when that ads up to R100 or more, sometimes one one item, I rather drive and collect but other times I'll just pay the R20-30 more per item even if it's 50% of a small order than waste the time and fuel.

N4P

I only travel if it is a client I have been with before, should he offer to pick me up and drop me off

Normally if I do travel it's ONLY for doubles with another lady that does not want to travel to my premises, not for a solo session with a client

I normally add up the uber costs to and from, then the fees that the lady may charge (eg room fees or levies) then I add my hourly rate to all of that, then I give you the sum total of what I would charge for the session excluding her rate

So ladies, what will Travel rates be to Polokwane for 2x 2hour bookings...LOL.... aski.g for a friend;-)

That one aspect that makes sense why an outcall is more expensive, is because it does take more time. The travel time (there an back) is lost opportunity - they could have had another client.

Another reason is ladies may feel more comfortable with bookings at their venue and as a trade-off charge more for outcall - where the booking is not on their "turf".
