This. I shared a lot of information and the space I used with a friend who was interested in PDing... even had her sit in on some sessions and taught her some techniques... though in doing so, she ended up with most of my regular clients. :/ Live and learn, I suppose! Doubt I would do that again though. | |||

Put simply; Some pro's are a benefit to this website and others are simply in it for what they can gain and wouldnt dream of helping others.. You get good apples and bad apples in every cart.

I'm really sorry to hear that If someone really has the aptitude and drive to do this as a career then they'll find a way to do it, and if necessary they'll do it the hard way too, which is always the best way to learn in my opinion.

I know of several noteworthy very professional Mistresses who advertise Mistress Training on their websites. There are also books available,DVDs etc. Most Mistresses have their own preferences and idiosyncrasies so it is probably best for your friend to have some idea of her own special fields of interest. There are many training courses in specialised techniques on offer around the UK. If she does eventually decide to become a pro dominatrix equipment,premises hire and website maintenance can be prohibitively expensive however equipped dungeons can be hired by the hour and are easily searchable on the IC listings as are 'kink friendly' website services. My first recommendation to any new pro domme however is to keep detailed accounts as you never know when the taxman will come calling... | |||

Playing devil's advocate here: does that the mean the New Kid so to speak was better at some things or offered something that Kitty did not? I've shared many experiences with other Dommes (pro or not) and I have found that my regulars come back to me no matter how many new Dommes set up in the area. They might session with other ladies at times because it's fun to do so, but generally speaking I have never lost a customer I was sorry to loose to another PD. I find it strange that someone new who was being trained by a Domme would end up with all of the Domme's regular customers. Surely a sub comes to see you because you're offering them that special connection, the kind of play, looks, intelligence, personality? ETA after considering The Marquise's point: And... is it her fault that the subs go to see her or the subs' fault? Did she actively 'groom' your clients or did they go to her because they chose to? That might make a big difference in whether you train another Domme I think? *insert silly text or moneymaking link of choice here* Edited 14 Feb 10, 8:20 PM by MissKimberley_1 | |||

I agree with your post about exchanging skills, but this thread is about an experienced PD teaching a newbie who could hitch her wagon to your very experienced and successful train and then bugger off, set up shop in the same town and undercut you whilst offering the very same services.
I also don't believe that we are all that different to quite a large % of clients "If no sexual offence is being committed it seems very odd indeed that there should be an offence for having an image of something which was not an offence," Lord Wallace of Tankerness | |||
