I've considered myself to be low volume since I became independent. Started out working for a studio, and then a brothel, so definitely wanted a layer of exclusivity that one otherwise wouldn't achieve, working for a venue. Beyond that, the level of emotional & mental labour that this job entails, even and especially outside of bookings is so high that I'd experienced burnout like crazy, a year in.

I just saw a really interesting comment where a punter mentioned that late afternoon, seeing a provider, that you might be the 6th client she sees for the day - and I knew I just had to find out for myself.
Punters, do y'all really reckon that we see 6 clients per day almost every day of the week? Providers, what do you consider to be low vs high volume?

Surely it you were seeing 6 clients per day (let's say at 1k each) that'd be...what? 20k per week in profits?
This might be the wrong crowd to be asking, considering *some* of the men on here look at us to be drugged up, pimped out hookers who should lay waiting on our backs all day for their call.... But I'm genuinely interested to know the logic behind it. What do clients think we do outside of our bookings with them specifically, and what do we do, to maintain a relatively decent volume of clients (whilst also managing not to burn out or otherwise have it physically manifest)

I was wondering the same thing....
6 clients a day?

Back when I started at 24 yes and working for venues. And this is usually because venues aim for a high volume of feet per day for a high turnover.

I'm Independent since this year March from my own premises I aim to see no more than 2-3 per day now. As I would prefer to build clients that value our sessions and come back to me.

Also to note:
My rates are fairly inexpensive compared to previous posts I've read.

I make the same, sometimes a little more with my two / three clients a day than the 4-6 I use to see at venues due to their cut / fees. / levies, in some cases penalties.

Not to even mention taxi fares to and from daily.

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.

Oh! And maintaining good mental health / sobriety throughout it all is also imperitive. Gotta have personal relationships of our own too, so as to not get attached to these (mostly, married) men, who are only required to show up and lay their cash down on a dresser to have their minds blown
