Happy couple

To the outside world, it may seem that escorts do all their work behind closed doors, but in truth, escorts are sometimes called to go out in public with clients.

An out-of-towner may want an escort to accompany him to an elegant dinner and an evening's entertainment. A local man needs an escort to accompany him to charity and professional functions. Increase your marketability and your profits by being the ideal date for anyone who desires an evening with a classy woman.

If you feel that dinners on the arm of a doctor, professor or politician is a stretch, train yourself to sound and behave as if you are rich.

Learn how to order and eat culinary delights in the most expensive restaurant in town. If you don't have someone to ask advice from, visit a local hot spot for a drink and eavesdrop on how others order meals, treat the wait staff, and carry on conversations.

Not sure how to dress for a society event? Go to a designer dress shop and ask for help in choosing the perfect dress for the perfect look. Pick up fashion magazines to keep current with couture.

Head to a salon or spa for make-up and hair advice. Keep a weekly manicure and pedicure appointment.

Appear polished by learning some French and Italian for ordering in restaurants or for tossing off a few exotic phrases to impress.

Read newspapers daily making sure to study the sports section. After all, if you want to be your client's fantasy woman, you will need to be able to converse intelligently about world affairs and listen to hours of sports talk about baseball, basketball, hockey, and football.

Start paying attention to plays, movies, books, and cultural events in your area so when your clients want you hanging on their every word at that exquisite restaurant, you will be able to understand what they're talking about.

Learn about dining, dressing, conversation and being elegant will boost your income and build your reputation as a first class escort.

Monthly Legal Plans

A pair of balances

It's late and you're in trouble with the police. Who can you call? A lawyer that loves to take advantage of someone in a desperate situation? Maybe one that smells adult entertainment money and is hoping to get his share?

You will never have to panic again. Pre-paid or monthly legal plans are one of the most important tools an escort needs.

Monthly legal plans vary based on the State/Province with some offering a discount for lawyers while others cover a variety of services. These plans are perfect for escorts that may have to deal with legal issues.

Even the most basic plans include legal advice over the phone, in-person consultations, review of legal documents, short letters to be written to adverse parties, and greatly reduced hourly rates for in-court and out-of-court representation.

While nothing is fool-proof, not having a lawyer on retainer is a big mistake!

Personally I would have saved a fortune on legal fees over the years if I had found this legal plan much sooner. I'm not just talking about having a criminal lawyer to call for escorting issues, but a lawyer to call for landlord issues, if you are ever audited, to handle speeding tickets, when you purchase property, contracts, and divorce/custody issues that any professional escort may need help with.

When you are interested in protecting yourself, your business, and your family (children and all), let me know. I have a trusted friend knowledgeable about the ins and outs of these monthly pre-paid legal plans and will help you figure out which plan is best for you.

Email me for information. It's never too late to start protecting yourself. Don't make the same mistake I did and wait too long.

Merchant Accounts

Batch of Dollar notes

I know many of you struggle with finding reliable and secure ways to accept credit card payments. Unfortunately a lot of banks won't give escorts access to a merchant account which leaves you unable to maximize your profits.

It was very hard for me to keep my merchant numbers when I ran my escort agencies. Eventually I had to find other companies that would run my credit cards calls through for me. First I had to find a company that used their merchant numbers the same way an escort agency would, then I had to pay them a huge percentage of my transaction. Worse yet, I had to trust that they would be honest and cut me a check for the money I had made the previous week.

At first PayPal seemed to be the answer, but now they are closing down all adult accounts, and people are back to looking for a reliable form of accepting payments.

After much research and dealing with some shady companies, I finally found a company for my customers who are in the escort industry. A good portion of this company's clientele is in the escort industry and in the adult entertainment industry. They have such good customer service and competitive rates, that I even recommend mainstream companies use them.

In a business where 50 % of the services you provide are paid for by credit cards, you need to be able to accept all major credit cards. How can a satisfied client take additional hours or tip you based on what you deserve if he cannot put it on his credit card? Even having a back up merchant account to protect you is a MUST in this business.

When I was in the escort business, I guarded my merchant numbers like they were gold. I highly recommend you do the same. Keep the banks happy because if they get upset, you could get blacklisted and be unable to get a merchant account again.

So, e-mail me when you are ready for your merchant account.

Historic Courtesan: Rahab the Prostitute

Painting of a long haired woman

Children still sing of how the walls of Jericho came tumbling down in the Old Testament.

What they don't sing about is Rahab, a harlot living in Jericho right before that great battle. Joshua, the well-known hero of the battle, sent spies to Jericho to see how the city could be defeated. The spies stopped at Rahab's Inn on their way out of town and they ended up talking over their plans.

Rahab overheard the spies talking about their plans on how the city would be attacked and destroyed and every home was to be burned to the ground. Someone else called the King's soldiers and Rahab agreed to hide the spies in her attic until nightfall.

Rahab tricked the king's men into believing the spies had left. This lie endangered the lives of her entire family, but she was clever and courageous enough and her faith kept her strong. She kept the spies hidden in the attic and when it was finally safe for them to leave, she ask them to return the favor by sparing her home and her family along with it, when they destroyed the city. They agreed and told her to hang a scarlet ribbon from her window and her home would be untouched by the battle.

With her courage, intelligence and faith, Rahab protected Joshua's spies at risk of losing her life and the lives of her family members. Thanks to this hero prostitute, the spies and her own family survived a battle that destroyed so many.
