What is An Escort Agency?
An escort agency is a company / booking agent that arranges dates between individuals and escorts. The definition has slight variations depending on who is defining it. Escort agencies fall into 3 categories. The first is incall only where clients will visit the private apartment of the escort. The second is outcall only where the escort will visit the client at their home. The third is a combination of both, which is a bit of a rarity these days. The agency representing the escort takes a fixed percentage of each booking fee. Independent escorts have to promote their own services and form their own advertising / marketing strategy. Escorts at agencies do not have to worry about that aspect, but for the bookings the agency arranges it pays a percentage of the booking fee. Independent escorts are independent, so they keep all of the booking fee. In an ever increasingly competitive market for independent escorts, they choose to join an escort agency. This is because they struggle by themselves to generate a client base. An escort agency fundamentally does the following:
- Acts as a booking agent for escorts. They arrange the bookings for them. The agency takes a percentage fro each booking.
- They provide all the advertising and promotion of the escort online.
- Top agencies often take professional pictures of each escort with the help of a professional glamour photographer.
- All escorts are self employed.
- Agencies ay choose to place individual adverts of its escorts on various escort related adverts.
