Inflation

[genius]

You fail to mention the two bigger barriers . The aptitude to take risk and the accepting the moral reality. If not for these barriers the market would be flooded with normal everyday girls.

Risk is always there whenever you start a business whether it is a deli, barbershop albeit it is more financial risk than physical risk.

As far as "accepting the moral reality" or else "the market would be flooded with normal everyday girls", during my single days (1980's) the only difference I found between the everyday girls and the pro's was that literally every everyday girl I took out on a date would f**k me for the price of taking her out to dinner*. The only difference between the two as far as I'm concerned is that the everyday girls were less expensive.

* I guess the more moral ones would require a second date.

Maybe a ss for 150 , 200 or HH but not and hour .

Facts a decade changes a lot of things that’s for sure two pops bbj was the standard for these rates but since the pandemic prices have nearly doubled.

I would think a girl would almost want to charge more for a two pop bj session since it's actually a lot more work than two pops full service.

When was the last time someone gave you two bbj's in an hour session?
And was it her idea or your request?

Over a month ago she has gone UTR now though only referrals she’s always done two pop bbj her rates have stayed the same for the most part 160 HR 120 Hhr for the hour msog but now had raised her rates to 200 only offering HR. I can’t say if she would offer this to new clients though to be honest with you.

This industry has very little to do with a normal economic market, which is why comparisons to “delis” and such don’t really apply. Let me explain.

This industry is a classic example of an “inelastic market,” one in which demand remains constant even when price fluctuates. The classic example of an inelastic market is the market for drugs. Prices for drugs may rise, but because purchasers are addicted, they’ll find ways to pay the higher prices (sound familiar?).

There are other unique factors at play.

I remember a story Slinky told here years ago about anotovider who raised her rates at the time
From $300 to $400. At the time this raised her level
From a bottom of the market status to a middle market status. She was now a “middle market” girl—a higher status in the industry. One of her oldest and most loyal clients asked to be grandfathered in to the old rate. However, she wouldn’t budge because she cherished this new status she had achieved. Now, that wasn’t really a smart business decision. But psychologically it made perfect sense.

My point is that a lot of these recent price rises are in the heads of providers and have nothing to do with pure market forces or smart business decisions. They see other girls achieving certain price point status and say to themselves, “if she can charge $X, I can, too.” and it snowballs.

Nevertheless risk is still a barrier . Consider the drug dealing biz. Tremendous profit margins. But tremendous risk of life in prison. That risk keeps endless would be dealers on sidelines. Thus the few willing to take risk make huge rewards with minimal competition .

Sounds like that provider was a small thinker; she should have raised her prices to porn star levels, say 4000. wonder why she didn't?

Same with the other girls.
