Last minute cancellation

in Pro Cuddling

If there is already a thread on this, if someone wouldn’t mind sending me there, but I am so sick of the last-minute cancellations and then they delete their account and or block me if we got to the point of exchanging phone numbers it is a horrible waste of time for me with no recourse. What do you all suggest?

    Since you are a pretty well established pro (have decent amount of karma, and been doing this for awhile). I think your best bet is to request a deposit. Add it to your profile (so clients know before they book) Make it clear it will come off their total session cost, so you're not asking for extra money just a down payment to secure the time.

    I would say $50 is probably the sweet spot. It's not a ton of money, but it's also not nothing. No one is going to give you $50 if they know they are going to flake. And you can even say in your profile the deposit is because you have had a lot of last minute cancellations and no shows.

    I'm not comfortable paying a deposit if a pro is brand new. But someone with 13 karma who is been doing this for over a year, I seriously doubt she would spend all this time and effort to run away with my $50.

    Ask for $50, it will separate a lot of genuine clients from the flakes.
