Do your research!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If an agency tells you something that sounds too good to be true \u2013 it probably is<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A reputable agency usually requires you to meet for an in-person interview. &nbsp;&nbsp;If an agency doesn\u2019t suggest such a meeting; ask for one. &nbsp;An interview will give you a good feel for the people you may end up working with. This is an opportunity for you to interview the agency too. &nbsp;If you suspect your interviewer is on drugs or lying about the agency benefits, trust your gut and move on<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the answers you receive at your interview, you will be able to determine if it\u2019s a good fit for you or if you should continue looking for another prospect<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask questions at your interview; go with a list so you don\u2019t forget anything that is important to you, here&#8217;s a quick checklist and explanations for each question:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-much-will-i-be-paid\">How much will I be paid?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have seen an ad online saying you can $30k+ a month; it\u2019s possible but not very likely. &nbsp;Escorts sometimes make that kind of money but very rarely. &nbsp;Escorting is not a get rich quick scheme, you have to work at it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask if there is set rates or if you can choose your own rate<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask what fees are charged by the agency &amp; how the agency receives payment<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agency fees fluctuate from 20% to 60% so shop around &amp; see what options are out there for you<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-get-paid\">How do I get paid?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Enquire about payment methods; if the Escort Agency tells you they take the money &amp; pays you, it\u2019s probably best to walk away \u2013 You may never see the money you have earnt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If an Escort Agency takes credit cards then ask how you will receive the money and how long it takes for you to receive the funds. &nbsp;Also, ask what happens with any chargebacks (if a charge is cancelled by the card owner or the bank cancels the transaction as the card is stolen)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"are-there-any-additional-costs-i-need-to-cover\">Are there any additional costs I need to cover?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask for guidelines for of all the things you must pay for yourself. &nbsp;You will always need to have your own clothes &amp; shoes but some agencies will expect you to pay for a shopping trip to start with them, or expect you to wear high end &amp; very expensive designer clothing, lingerie &amp; shoes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some will expect you to pay for your own marketing &amp; ads on top of the agency fees<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you pay for your own transport or is it paid by the client in addition to your fee; Do you need to pay an agency driver<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If any agency attempts to charge fees anything not directly related to escorting; legal fee to draw up a contract; it may be a sign of a scam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s essential to ask about all so you know exactly where you stand and you can make an informed decision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-the-agency-policy-with-photos\">What is the agency policy with photos?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some agencies will use the photos you give them. &nbsp;Some will pay fully for your photos, some will pay a portion of the cost. &nbsp;Others may expect you to go to their photographer who could cost anywhere from $500 to $5000. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are not using your own photos, ask who will own the new photos after they are taken.  Please read our blog on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/escort-photos\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Escort Photo Ownership<\/a> and who owns them<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-are-schedules-handled\">How are schedules handled?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All agencies handle scheduling differently. &nbsp;Some agencies have strict policies with set shift hours, set number of shifts or a Roster you must adhere too<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some will allow a lot of flexibility, others none at all. &nbsp;&nbsp;Time off to recharge is important but some agencies simply don\u2019t care and will push a gruelling schedule of day-after-day appointments<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How much notice you get with appointments. &nbsp;If you can\u2019t get to an appointment in time is there any recourse<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"does-the-agency-have-a-regular-client-base\">Does the agency have a regular client base?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If an agency boasts to you that they have more clients than anyone else, their girls are all booked out all day every day and in desperate need of good escorts be careful. &nbsp;This is a tried and true scam that some agencies have pulled on unsuspecting escorts who want to get rich quick<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-managed reputable agency will have regular clients but nobody can predict how a new girl will be received. &nbsp;An experienced agency may have an idea if their regular clients may enjoy your company but there is no guarantee<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"have-there-been-any-problem-clients-and-what-does-the-agency-do-if-i-find-myself-in-a-bad-situation\">Have there been any problem clients and what does the agency do if I find myself in a bad situation?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some agencies put your safety &amp; happiness ahead of them making money; some don\u2019t<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ask-about-the-background-of-the-agency-amp-the-staff-working-at-the-agency\">Ask about the background of the Agency &amp; the staff working at the agency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While some new agencies can be innovative &amp; enthusiastic; generally the older agencies will have the client base &amp; reputation you need to succeed in a competitive market<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most agencies who have been around a year or more will have online reviews on one of the various review sites about the agency &amp; also the ladies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"read-agency-reviews-and-the-ladies-reviews-for-tell-tale-signs-that-ladies-are-unhappy-or-working-under-duress\">Read agency reviews and the ladies reviews for tell-tale signs that ladies are unhappy or working under duress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Agency ladies reviews will show the date the review was posted; if an agency has ladies that have been at the same place for years, it may be a good sign. &nbsp;Girls lasting only a short time may mean the opposite<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"is-there-any-sexual-services-requirements-for-you-to-work-with-them\">Is there any sexual services requirements for you to work with them?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an important question and one you must ask<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"do-you-have-a-say-over-what-goes-into-your-profile-amp-promotion\">Do you have a say over what goes into your profile &amp; promotion?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another must ask question; you don\u2019t want to find out after your photoshoot that your full face must be on the website. &nbsp;Also ask about face photos or selfies being shown to clients or on social media<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-you-work-via-your-own-ads-work-with-multiple-agencies-or-are-you-expected-to-be-exclusive\">Can you work via your own ads, work with multiple agencies or are you expected to be exclusive<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many agencies have strict policies about exclusivity. &nbsp;If you previously worked privately you may be asked to refer your private clients to the agency. &nbsp;Be honest if you are advertising anywhere, on other agencies, sugar daddy sites etc; Honesty is the best policy. A lot of agencies will have price guarantees so clients will point out ads to get better rates<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"do-i-need-to-sign-a-contract\">Do I need to sign a contract?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If an agency tries to force you to sign a contract on the spot, be careful. You could be locked into something that you may regret<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is a contract read over it over it &amp; if you are unsure if you should sign it consult a lawyer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your time to decide if the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.internationalescort.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Escort Agency<\/a> is the right one for you; if you have any doubts continue interviewing with other agencies; you will know the right agency when you come across them<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you have found this Escort Agency Advice helpful<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Until next time<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ezqeeksozic.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Sarah-sign.png?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27462\" width=\"225\" height=\"79\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ezqeeksozic.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Sarah-sign.png?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 449w, https:\/\/ezqeeksozic.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Sarah-sign-300x106.png?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are considering Escort Agency Representation please read this Escort Agency Advice on how to choose a quality Escort Agency and some of the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28097,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":2,"label":"Industry"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/ezqeeksozic.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Escort-Agency-Advice-1024x476.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1",1024,476,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Sarah","author_link":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/author\/sarah\/"},"comment_info":0,"category_info":[{"term_id":2,"name":"Industry","slug":"industry","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":2,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":31,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":2,"category_count":31,"category_description":"","cat_name":"Industry","category_nicename":"industry","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7743"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7743"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7743\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28097"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7743"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7743"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.agencyatlantic.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7743"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
