Reverse booking strategies

[Winterspirit]

Just wondering how any reverse booking aficionados word their booking and set their price?

I do like putting them up but find the quality of the bids I get are poor.

I try to be slightly cheeky on my bid- say £260 for 2 hour outcall in the NW/ Greater Mcr and I’m pretty vanilla in what I’m looking for busty milf Gfe and I might specify must dos and desirable services.

Too often it’s the usual suspects bidding and then I never know am I better to delete dross as it bids or leave all the bids on till I make a decision

Any useful pointers appreciated

[RandomGuy99]

I specify dates I'm interested in, time, services I require, look I like and the maximum fee that I will pay.

I keep it open until someone I am interested in seeing replies and we have a booking agreed.

[Adoniron]

Waste of time in my experience. Get bids from SPs in an entirely different location or offering something different to what I'm seeking. If I say incall don't tell me you do outcalls only.

and there is your problem… low balling and failing to get what you seek! Just put up a bid that gives the type of meet you are after and what you are genuinely willing to pay! If your being cheeky why would you exoecf to strike gold?

There is nothing wrong with trying to fish something at a better price. If you live in a bigger city with many escorts, there are more chances. However, use it as a plan B, understand that if you're being ''cheeky'' , looking for a ''cheapy'', there are many chances to be ignored or just flooded by the usual scammers.

If you use it as a plan A, put your advert with a decent time ( a few days) before the punt, at the market price. In your description, be clear about what you want and be respectful. Show your willingness to discuss any further details with the bidder. If a good rated escort seems interested, be flexible about the price.


If you live in a smaller place,just forget it. I moved from a big city in a small town and the reverse booking thing doesn't work anymore. I hope it will be useful.

Thanks guys
Random guy I’ll try to be specific in what I’m looking for
Adaniron I’ve had good luck with them in the past so I guess that is why I stick with doing them, but I can understand how they can seem to be a waste of time. I have put up bookings and ended up binning them due to dross bids
Jk I’d lean more to what RV says, in a busy place like Manchester you can sometimes get ladies dropping their rates but yes I take your point. Get what you pay for.
RV thanks for that I’ll give it another go and hope for the best

[RandomGuy99]

Sometimes you get contacted by SPs you wouldn't have found otherwise and sometimes you find a diamond.

[Southernbloke]

Complete waste of time and credit. Tried several times with RB only had one actually worked out. My experience is similar to others.
Was always specific in what service I wanted and always put a reasonable price up but always got bids from girls out of the area ( other side of the country!) or they don’t offer the service I put on the RB .
I started to wonder if the people on the other side of AW ( offering) see a different RB offer to what we ( seeking) put up.
I know that is not the case now, I feel now it’s more like FB marketplace with people asking stupid questions when all the details are on the offer

[Winterspirit]

You are right Random- I have found a diamond before doing the rbs - alas she is away on holidays when I’m looking a booking

Southern - I do remember a lady showing me her bidding on reverse  bids but it was a while ago

Good analogy with FB marketplace that is full of timewasters,I've never had a RB reply worth bothering with.
Most are miles away from my location or don't do what I've asked for,some even bid more than they normally charge

Ive used RBs a lot over the years and had some great results, mainly pre Covid, when the punting scene wasnt the shitshow it is now. 

Here are 20 observations because Im bored and avoiding work:

1. It can be complety random -some bids you will get lots of bids, post the same a week later -  and you get nothing

2. There are lots of serial bidders that you have to weed out

3, London used to be a rich hunting ground for part time/visiting escorts, hardly any now post covid/brexshit

4. Outcalls work - incalls via a RB are a waste of time, unless you are offering silly money

5. Pricing - as long as you arent completely taking the piss (£260 for 2 hours might be pushing it - £280/300 might get better results), you will get bidding for lower than the advertised rate

6. Outcalls to hotels will get a better response than to a private address

7. WGs can bid over your bid price, and occasionally Ive managed to negiotiate a lower price in between the bid and her offer

8. Specifying services is worthwhile, but be prepared that most WGs dont read the bid and you ALWAYS have to reconfirm

9. I never confirm the RB - I will send the WG a separate booking request and leave the RB open -saves you if they falke on you (surprise - escorts have been known to do this

10. A LOT of RBs ask for bareback (and get lots of bids), so be aware that WGs who bid on yours, may also be bidding on these

11. Following up bids over email quickly and moving to whatsapp/texts is definately worthwhile and can often "secure the deal"

12. WGS who have responded to a specific request in your bid (eg "I can provide nipple clamps, but you need to have your own cock ring  ) will often be a better bet than the serial bidders

13. Early morning meet bids can be surprisingly successful - I once had a regular that would come to my hotel at 7.30AM for an hours booking on her way to the office (pre Covid klaxon)

14. I post a week before the meet if I can, but never in advance of that otherwise they can get confused about the date (eg opst the bid on the Thursday if you want to meet next weds)

15. Short notice RBs (eg less than 24 hours) are very rarely a success

16. Post Covid, I would say my success rate is around 40%, pre Covid was nearer 80%. London is always better, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle and Birmingham I have done well in, Leeds/Wales/Bristol/smaller towns rarely had any luck

17. If you dont want BBWs, state this, similalrly to any other preferences, helps up front (as long as they read the bid)

18. Be wary if any replies to emails that come back really quickly -can ofetn be the sign of a Sergei/agency replying and not the girl

19. Make sure you state the hotel you are staying at early on in the emails/texts. I once had a booking all arranged and then told the WG the hotel name and she refused the booking as she knew some of the staff there.

20. Back to the first point - it can be completely random 
 

[triggs91]

I've used it in the past, normally when I know I'll be staying overnight somewhere for a specific date so I can plan it ahead.

I always state I have no interest in BB and what I am looking for.

I'll weed out the shit ones as I go and try to pick a winner a week or so ahead, communicating with them first to make sure they meet what I'm looking for.

You'll always get waste of time bids from people who just bid on everything.

For a while I also put a passphrase in the booking text and if that wasn't used in the bid I'd know they hadn't bothered reading it so it was a quick way of removing the scatter-gunners

No SP has ever read my RB from the bids I've received.

[jamiekinkxxx]

I 100% agree that you can find a diamond, BUT I 100% stand by the fact that if ytou take the piss with your pricing that is  not going to happen.

The best diamonds I found was when I was asking for an amount that most advertisedc at anyhow. As someone above has mentioned you tend (after you have filtered out the obvious ones that have not read the RB you may find someone that you have never heard of before that turn out to be a future meet even if you don;'t choose them for the actual RB.

[jamiekinkxxx]

No SP has ever read my RB from the bids I've received.

I always ask them to insert a given word in their reply that I add at the bottom  of my RB to show they have actually read it. No word = no reply from me.

  some will probably add the word if I do that even though they are miles away and I'm in the Cotswolds.
I just don't think they work outside of cities.

This an interesting strategy that I hadnt thought of  How do you phrase that on your bid?

One thing I notice is that even if I know they have read my bid (eg they have said "I dont do anal but happy with everything else and can visit you on Weds"), I nearly always  get the "can you remind me of the details babe" which can be annoying.

I agree on "taking the piss", but it is difficult when there are so many WGs with their taking the piss prices  . Its a difficult balance to strike.... I have met escorts at 30-50% of their "published" rates, so it does hapen. A lot less often these days than before, but it does still happen.

Its also a good point on meeting a bidder on a future date for the bid price - I have also done this as well in the past.

I just at the end something like.

If you are interested in bidding please respond and include the word "xxxx" in your response. Just very simple. Many do, some don't (and they generally respond and clearly have not read it (size / age out of sync or a cut n paste response etc.)

  Thanks. I will try this on my next RB, will be interesting to see if it works. ( I'm certain I'll still get the cut and paste reponses anyway saying "xx" and "sounds great"      ). There really should be a list of the serial time wasting bidders....

I second all of the above. I have done two or three RB's a year for over a decade for special occasions or looking for specialist services. Out of all only had one neutral. If you can make it fun for the SP,( Mine are usually overnight) so dinner/drinks etc or something quirky that makes it stands out from the standard RB (Two hour booking straight sex) swingers club and so on the quality of response is much higher.

I've had SP's travel for over four hours, cam only girls, an overnight at a unbelievably low rate, hobby whore's.

The more effort put into the creation of the RB but keeping it to the point, I find gets better results.

[triggs91]

This an interesting strategy that I hadnt thought of  How do you phrase that on your bid?

When I do it I say "mention giraffes in your bid to show you've read the bid fully".

None of the genuine bidders have ever had a problem with it from what I can tell, and some remember it and ask me during the booking if I've had problems with people not reading the booking etc.

Price wise I normally put in at £300 for 2 hours, but they're welcome to negotiate a different amount. It also gives me the chance again to weed out people who haven't read it and don't adjust the price to their current rate - I'm not paying more than you'd normally charge! Girls who charge more than that normally change it to their current rate etc.

I agree that pre-covid it was a much better system, but I've been able to get some great bookings through it I might otherwise have missed

Good idea on the pass phrase - looking at your reviews -have you used it successfully for incalls?

[Steely Dan]

I have had great results with RB.  Not that my success rate is that great, or responses are not sometimes crap, but I 'discovered' 3 regulars that way, including Woofie (look at her first ever review), a regular who kept me sane during Covid, and a current regular.  The wins make up for the hassle.  And I had many great punts beyond these 3.

I broadly agree with shooter's 20 tips.  Particularly useful for hotel outcalls, for 2hours plus, as it may help you find a girl from a bit further away who will travel.

Remember, though punting is not dating, a RB means she is booking you.  I suggest you say more than 'looking for a 25yo for 2 hours of sex'.  You need to give a little of your personality so she will book you.  I would not demand a pass phrase (is that your personality? it is not mine), but sometimes they refer to my personal comment (It is sooo cool you keep a spider....) that I know they read my note.  Not a test - an opportunity.

Also, note you can accept the RB (which sends her a booking with price agreed) and then cancel and get more bookings.  Cancelling does not 'unsend' the booking.  She may worry, so you might tell her that you are fishing for your next booking, that you are not a timewaster.  If she cannot cope with this, then she is too fussy (for me anyway)

[Winterspirit]

I took advice and upped my price, so will see how it develops thanks everyone ,

Thanks Dan. Some interesting points - think I probably agree on the passphrase point - it is fairly clear who has read the booking and who hasnt.

I should have added
#21 - Always include some blurb about yourself, I state my age and ethnicity body size etc. Think that helps 
#22 - Dont necessarily expect that if you see a WG for one price/duration that is lower than her published rate that she will agree to meet again for the same deal. I met one new WG after lockdown for a bargain 2 hour rate and it was sensational booking. She left AW but gave me her email but then wanted more £ for subsequent meets, so it never happened. 

Interesting about accepting and cancelling, but isnt that the same as just boooking direct and keeping the RB open? I always just say I had trouble accpeting the booking so I've booked direct and most seem happy with that.

One thing that is particularly annoying about RBs are BB seekers. They don’t mention it until the very last sentence ! Not suggesting OP is looking for that by any means but it’s a bugbear of mine. FFS mention it at the start to save me, and others I’m sure, a minute or two of out lives please  I’m sure it’s a strategy to try and sway SPs

Yes - As per my no. 10 above -I used to be able to read the RBs before they tightened AW searching up, so could see the number of punters requesting it - was a real eye opener. A lot seemed to be offering silly money for it as well.

I once had a Polish WG turn up and say "You wanting bareback, yes?", fortunately it was at the start of the RB. She didnt have it listed as a like on her profile, but was clearly happy to offer it. She was shown the door quicksmart ...

It is not quite the same.  When you accept the RB bid, it posts 'consistent with your bid number blah blah blah, at price XXX, this booking is YYY'.  Thinking about it more, in theory I suppose one could type all the stuff, but much easier to accept and then un-accept.

You could also say: 'Hi SexyGirl99: I un-accepted the RB so I could read what I posted.  See you next  Tuesday'

Pre-covid so before I joined here I had, but since I've joined here I have tried putting up RBs for outcalls but not really got take up or anybody who perked my interest bidding
