Ummm .... she obviously is trying to develop some business acumen and if her questions were not relevant or worthwhile then neither are any of our replies. Apart from yours, apparently, which I would say was not the most useful thing you've posted on here in the last couple of days.

@Perplexion you are right & I apologise if my post conveyed a rather arrogant dismissive opinion.

I am new to making postings but before posting I tend to read the Op's previous postings.

@Nina_jay I have read a lot of your postings & have possibly misunderstood your varied questions that you have posted. To me they come across as being rather naive considering that you are a professional.

I have taken the O/P to task in the past but this thread is useful for exchanging ideas and encouragement in general.

I didn't answer the original question, though, and it's a difficult one but I'd say about a quarter of all enquiries to date have resulted in an appointment. I don't get as many wank-contacts as they tend to be the same few and eventually they give up.

I'm not sure advice given to the O/P takes into consideration that she is Pro-sub as her line of questioning them and the need to give information regarding what she allows without use of a website is quite different from a PD's spiel.

I would work out a script of what I wanted to know from them and how to answer likely questions without it turning into an unpaid phone session.

The OP appears to be a pro everything so I reckon any advice is useful.

I have never myself worked out what percentage of calls etc turn into bookings.But I do know this,up to recently I was on a phone tariff that meant everytime I was called,it would cost the caller five pence a minute from his calling cost which I would receive when I topped up the phone,send a text to me and I got two pence for opening it. This tariff made timewasters pay.I no longer on that tariff but unless you are on the same network as me,it will cost you cash to phone me,so in some way that stops the timewasters.

I'm not a pro everything but I do also now have a Mistress site as well as a pro sub site. I know a lot of pro subs that also offer mistress sessions.

I think being a sub for quite a few years gives me a pretty good idea what other subs enjoy.

I experience the same, it is sometimes frustrating to spend so much time and then they just stop

i tried at one point to ask them via text why but didnt get much out of them... maybe just a thrill thing to see what is there or a drunken or show off for their mates

but i like the idea ofi think the thrird comment on here saying just a i will i wont or a maybe until they pay deposit... so you know they are not getting a free wank out of it lol

Technically you are pro switch rather then a pro sub also trying to work as a dominant. Now to answer the question. It can vary but out of say of number of calls you get a day one or two will turn into real session but rest will fall into group listed on LAB's website.This list will give you the classic timewaster types and dubious calls.
