I’m very communicative and run more into the issue of clients just not responding anymore and flaking. That’s why I’ve got a deposit policy now, to at least pay for my wasted time.
Some of us do run this like a small business and are heavily criticized for seeing this as a job. But like, if I see it as a job, it means I’ll reply like it’s a job.
Lots of people here see it as Tinder Lite or Find a Friend or some hippy dippy spiritual experience. So they’re not going to be the best at communicating since it’s not being prioritized like a job to them. Being pro just means you take money. It doesn’t mean you’re actually operating like a business person. That comes down to mindset.
I say this not with disrespect but just facts. When I worked as an artist, we all said the same. Pro just means you’ve ever sold any artwork. Doesn’t mean you’re business minded.
As a business major myself, I understand your frustration. However, pros also cannot hire employees to help them run their business here to take on appoitnents. If I could clone myself to just have my clone act normal but just be a continuation of me then I'd love to. It would help a great deal. However, orders in such a format can get backed up a lot and easily. Personally, I get to every message as quickly as possible but it may take a bit of time at times. Each pro is different of course. But some/most intend to do their job. Not sure on the rest of them though. Businesses in general can also decline service for any reason too.
I could tell you right now - if you make the effort and write a heartfelt message , they most definitely respond. You have to be sincere. At least this is my experience . You can’t dictate terms with whatsoever your current circumstances may be like. Like Jaz here is a very experienced and highly well-reviewed cuddler who knows how to be fully present and give you her attention . She’s a sweetheart to have taken the time to write a few words just to comfort you . At the end of the day - be empathetic . Toward yourself first , then channel that love to the next pro who will oblige to cuddle with you. Soak in that bliss and build memories that will last forever .. there’s truly no price for that ✨ Be well
@metanoiahour 💯
@Minestrone101 😅
@metanoiahour You're 10,000,000% right. I come from the school of @CuddleDuncan and I really do respect the cuddlers (men and women).
@achetocuddle I do declare. I reckon tis so. Yes'em.
@Minestrone101 Keep kickin a$$ my friend. I see you’ve got a couple of nice karmas. I hope you keep finding greener pastures and stiller waters.. 👍🏾👍🏾
@metanoiahour Sir. you too. 🙏 🙏 🙏
Why is this thread limited to pros?
@CelestialTouch Pros provide a service, therefore some clients are attaching some expectation of what that should look like, based on their experience with other paid services I guess
Enthusiasts are free to write whatever they want (as are pros), but they aren’t being paid to do something so there’s no impetus to appeal to the masses
@CelestialTouch Honestly, in my opinion, we have a lot of members on CC , for lots and lots of um reasons and excuses, that wish pros weren’t here ? 🤔. And that is so sad 😞
@OhioMike there is a false belief that was kinda popular in earlier threads that if pros didn’t exist, it would be easier to meet with enthusiasts. That isn’t true, look at dating apps they suffer many of the same male-female imbalances seen here. A lot of people would just be out of a lot of cuddles if pros didn’t exist
.
@sunnysideup oh I understand and agree with your points. As someone who’s been here a bit some peeps have been unhappy with professional cuddling as soon as they heard about it 😞
