How to handle the daily ton of text messages and emails.

[Yeison]

One of the hardest part of being a provider is the fact of responding text messages and emails all day long from different people, some emails asking questions about the same things we already have on RM, but here the solution for this hard work.

 

It may sounds rude or tough but it's not like that at all, you have to be very determinated and on point with your Ad and description so people don't waste your time or worst they don't try to chat a whole day with you but here my example of how the comunicación with a first timer client should be.

 

"Hi my name is ...... and saw your ad on RM.........I'm interesting in meeting today, tomorrow, whatever and was wondering if you have availability for ..... to spend ...... hours together, how much is your donation for....... hours, I am top/bottom/vers, I'm looking to meet you at......... place".

With this short introduction about yourself will be the best way for a great comunicación between both parties and also to avoid a waste of time for the provider and the client with the back and forth Text messages, going straight to the point it's also the best way to get an answer faster and with every detail to be clear about your expectations.

 

This form it's just for first timers, newbie clients, my regulars always text me however they want because there is already a relationship between us.

 

With this point I'm not trying to sound rude but have determination to use our time better and be more successful when it comes to booking with us. Remember providers are the ones dealing with a lot of emails and text messages from different people everyday.

That may be a reasonable approach. I certainly understand that it would help manage inquiries.

 

Expecting 21st century humans to comply with your communications standards is unrealistic.

 

Nobody follows rules, particularly when it involves e*communications.

 

I am skeptical that your admonition will prove helpful to you. I'll be happy if you report results in the future that I'm mistaken.

Right, I updated my about me description on RM and it's working great, clients respect my time and understand that I'm. It here to chat but for business.

[KennF]

I like that you've gone into specifics about your needs and desires, but aren't they a little mis-focused?

 

Aren't ads designed to attract clients, not dissuade them?

 

A salesman would love for a prospective buyer come in knowing exactly what they want and having decided everything, so that he spends the minimum of time making the sale. But the average customer likes to "kick the tires" and feel comfortable with the options before they buy.

 

As a service provider, you will field lots of inquiries before you get a client. Only you can decide what is worth your time and not. You aren't required to respond to everyone.

 

The ad feels like you are reprimanding me because others. But, that's just my opinion.

 

 

BTW - The fact that you're getting the messages, texts, emails, is a GOOD thing.

[LaffingBear]

The ad feels like you are reprimanding me because others.....

Probably a double edged sword.

 

If he's satisfied with demand and the ad-copy is dissuading the inquiries that frustrate him, it's effective.

 

A reduction in volume of irritating, time-wasting iterative messages is only one measurement. Depends on the definition of success. There's really no way to know who looked at the ad and thought "thats kinda off-putting - I'll look elsewhere." So, same result - doesnt matter unless he needs more business.

[KennF]

There's really no way to know who looked at the ad and thought "thats kinda off-putting - I'll look elsewhere."

 

Agreed. That's why I gave my feedback.

[Yeison]

@KennF I would like to give you an example of what kind of text and emails I'm trying to avoid, sometimes I get emails just saying "HI" nothing else but just a "HELLO" from someone I don't know and haven't seen, short introductions are the best when it comes to set up an appointment for the first time, even for persons that wants to ask me questions it's preferable to just list all of the questions In one email or text so I can read it all and reply with better answers.

 

What would you do if you get text messages like this everyday, example: the point A is the client and the B is the provider.

 

A: Hi

B:Hi

A:How are you

B:I'm great thanks, who is it?

A:my name is... and saw your ad.

B:oh! Cool, what can I do for you today?

A: just wondering what's your availability for today.

B: I'm available all day, you are welcome to pick a time that fits for you.

A: what time its good for you?

B: anytime, just tell me what it's the best for you?

A: I have to check my schedule first.

B:ok, get back to me when you are ready for any appointment.

A:ok, I will, can you send me some pictures of you?

B: mybpic are on RM and they are very fresh, I updated it monthly.

A:send me one of you showing 3 fingers and one pointing your nose.

B:ok done.

A: can you send a video now of you talking.

B: ok done.

A:can we face time?

 

Now, can you imagine answering a ton of people at the same time asking for the same things, I love what I do but I also want to optimize everything for a better fun time.

[KennF]

I completely understand.

 

Since you asked...

I wouldn't have responded as you did. The potential client was in control. You allowed them to dictate the flow of the conversation. And they don't have to worry about a dozen other texts.

 

A: Hi

B1:

Hi. How can I help you today? (or What can I do for you?)

A: my name is... and saw your ad.

B2:

Nice. And, thank you for looking. Are you interested in setting up something today or in the future? If so, what, when and where?

A: just wondering what's your availability for today.

B3:

I'm available today, I prefer this afternoon around 4 or 5, but I am flexible. If you'd like to set up an appointment, please call me.

 

This is presuming you prefer calls, and don't want text conversations. But that's the idea.

 

B1 is your attempt to control the flow of the conversation. You ask the questions and let your potential client respond to you. You stay focused on the task at hand (closing the deal).

 

B2 is you acknowledging them and keeping them on task. Speeding the conversation to the important details... when where and what.

 

B3 is your attempt to move the conversation to a faster back and forth. If this were emails, you could ask multiple questions. By text, it is limited. Your potential client is unsure and not clear, so a different method of communication is better. And notice, you give them clear choices. Don't leave them with open ended decisions.

 

 

Just for information... At my company, the sales team never just answers a simple question. They always follow up with leading question.

It is real important that you direct the conversation, especially in this industry. Your time is valuable.

[Kevin Slater]

Pick up the phone and call. If he were serious, he'd answer. If not, you've just saved yourself 20 minutes.

@KennF

 

A: Hi

B:Hi

A:How are you

B:I'm great thanks, who is it?

A:my name is... and saw your ad.

B:eek:h! Cool, what can I do for you today?

A: just wondering what's your availability for today.

B: I'm available all day, you are welcome to pick a time that fits for you.

A: what time its good for you?

B: anytime, just tell me what it's the best for you?

A: I have to check my schedule first.

B:eek:k, get back to me when you are ready for any appointment.

A:eek:k, I will, can you send me some pictures of you?

B: mybpic are on RM and they are very fresh, I updated it monthly.

A:send me one of you showing 3 fingers and one pointing your nose.

B:eek:k done.

A: can you send a video now of you talking.

B: ok done.

A:can we face time?

 

Geez!

 

If I had known you were keeping a record of my texts and were going to share them, I wouldn't have contacted you to begin with.......

 

And you never did answer my questions about what you're wearing, or do you like to kiss?

I got a chuckle out of the text exchange above. I can see how that would be time consuming when dealing with a high volume of customers.

 

There is a very well known restaurant here which has a motto: "have your money in your hand and your order in your mind " and they do not suffer fools gladly. Fortunately they do enough volume so that those who find this brusque, get pissed off and leave are inconsequential to their bottom line. Potential customers who ask too many questions or pause to think are bypassed for the next customer waiting in line. I know that when I approach the counter with my $6.50 clutched in my sweaty palm that only pennies of that will be spent on staff overhead.

 

Maybe require a $50 deposit after 3 questions?

[MikeyGMin]

Now, can you imagine answering a ton of people at the same time asking for the same things,

No, I cannot.

 

You have great pictures. A super hot video and another couple where you are speaking and smiling and very charming. It's enough for a serious client to send you a serious message. Anyone who texts you like that doesn't know what they're doing and will probably never make an appointment. Even if they do, they are probably going to be more trouble than they're worth.

 

If you need the business, you can hold their hands through the process, but I can't believe a hot Brazilian like yourself doesn't have plenty of clients. You're certainly on my radar. Come anywhere near Texas and I will be sending you a very clear message!

Sounds like a famous Deli in NYC.

 

and a little like the soup nazi

Bingo!

Very good points made here. Always good to communicate your expectations and provide some type of form to guide clients. Some people just don't know any better...some clients work in business and communications and tend to know how to address an escort in MLA format equipped with the right punctuation. Others may work in fields where they never have to write or type again after college.

 

What matters is, if i ask for $50,000...i just want to hear:

 

[Trick]

Can the other escorts here give a sample text of what they'd like to get from an inquiring client?

 

My initial text is usually, "Hi I'm Patrick. Are you in (city)?"

 

This is to see that I got the correct number and that it's working. If I got a wrong number, I'll simply say sorry.

 

How should the conversation proceed from that initial text?

 

Aside: I rarely get a reply when I use my nickname "Trick". I wonder why.

Please take those definitions lightly as I'd imagine the age group of those making definitions are in the middle to high school and early college realm.

[Trick]

Thanks, Mocha.

 

I never knew my nickname had those connotations

I kind of liked this, I'll take it for myself , thanks it's very helpful

Lol when did you contacted me. Sorry if I couldn't answer it's just I'm running around all the time, you can call me anytime you want.

Hahahha, I've been way busy lately now I started traveling again, I have lot of clients but you are right, potential clients don't ask many stupid things, they just book and that's it, I try to make my ad as clear as water by posting videos of me talking and showing that I am not fake, I think it's clear enough to trust my pictures.

 

Tell me where in Texas are you, I'm planning to go there after market days in Chicago.

Your initial text it's great to start a conversation and confirm that you got the right number, agreed with you but some people just say "Hello" nothing else.

[+ VictorPowers]

As I'm a full time provider, answering questions and replying to inquiries are part of the job. Sure my description and ad SHOULD filter the questions, but it just doesn't. I'm glad to reply as they are already interested and had the courage to reach out.
