And this is usually because venues aim for a high volume of feet per day for a high turnover.
Certainly yes - because when working for a venue, you get paid like half the rate they charge clients - so pushing for 5/6 per day means reaching a target income. And having to miss out on a day could possibly incur further levies as well. Of course as independents we have overheads to cover, but I still don't think it'd justify 6 per day.
Whereas right now, personally? I'm not above losing out on money if it means I've avoided a negative experience.
From what I can tell on the forum, independent SPs are expected to have 6 clients per day, whilst also maintaining a spotless workspace (changing the sheets, towels, sanitizing surfaces, scrubbing showers) and then also should be available at all times to answer phonecalls, SMSs, whatsapps and PMs (none of which may be automated or copy / paste because we need to be proving how genuine we are), alongside advertising on the forum, having & planning photoshoots, as well as extra content for PG & sale, preparating ourselves for bookings (lingerie, doctors appts, gym?) and above and beyond that, need to be 'easy going / effortless to book' - accepting cash on arrival IF they don't cancel on us last minute.
