Ok, so let me start by saying this is something that came to mind for potential discussion, not an idea I want to pursue myself.

Over the years, I have often seen a profile that looked "too good to be true".

Whether that was based on my pre-conceived idea of the area a lady worked from, or a complete lack of reviews, or maybe only a couple of bad reviews from unknown punters... the general idea is that a profile looks great but something stops you from taking the plunge.

Have you ever thought that you'd be willing to pay for the booking if another punter you trusted would pay a visit and report back on any questions you had?

On the flipside, if a punter offered you a free booking for a private and unbiased review of an SP, would you be interested?

And lastly, if you were an SP and you found out the above was happening, how would you feel about it?

Very interesting topic

Really would be offended to find out a guy only came to see me because someone else paid him to do so regardless how the session turned out.

I would not want anyone to come visit me because they got paid to do so.That is what it comes down to)

I would like someone to visit me because he liked what he saw and read on my profile. If he still had some doubts, I would hope he would have make the effort to call and talk to me or even start a what's up or text dialog to make up his own mind. And if that did not convince him to visit to just move on.

Going on a booking on what someone else have said or experienced might not necessarily be how the interaction would have been with you.

Yes a good review is some indication as to the service ect..
Fact remains what one guy might consider to be awesome another might find revolting. What one person might find to be amazing another might find mediocre.
The chemistry between two people are definitely an individual thing. And what might have been fire works and shooting stars with one client might not be with the next client.
