Escort Advice: Preparing to Meet a Client
Preparing for a client meeting is a blend of professionalism, self-care, and a bit of excitement. Each booking is unique, and getting ready for it can set the tone for a memorable experience for both you and your client. As an agency owner, I’ve seen how much these small but thoughtful preparations make a difference. Here are my top tips to ensure you feel confident, prepared, and ready for an enjoyable encounter.
Self-Care
The first step to preparing for a client meeting is taking time for yourself. Self-care, both physical and mental, can be incredibly grounding. Start by ensuring you’re well-rested, hydrated, and energised. For some companions, a gentle stretching session, a bit of exercise, or even a few minutes of meditation can help calm the mind and get them into a positive headspace.
In my experience, taking these small steps before a booking can make you feel more centered and at ease, creating a more relaxed and enjoyable experience for both you and your client.
Tailor Your Look to Suit the Occasion
Dressing thoughtfully is one way to elevate the experience, and it’s also a wonderful opportunity to express your personal style while catering to the client’s preferences. If the meeting is formal – a dinner at an upscale restaurant or a special event – choosing a refined, classic look can make a great impression. For a more casual or intimate booking, something comfortable yet chic might be ideal.
From my perspective, having a few staple outfits ready for different types of bookings makes the preparation process seamless. A well-prepared wardrobe allows you to adapt to the setting, ensuring you always look and feel your best.
Understand the Client’s Preferences
Understanding your client’s interests and preferences helps you create a customised experience, making them feel valued and understood. For new clients, reading any notes they may have provided in advance can offer insights into their likes, dislikes, and the type of evening they’re envisioning. For regular clients, recalling personal details or shared memories can make them feel appreciated.
Personalising your approach with these small details shows attentiveness and consideration. It’s the kind of thoughtful touch that can turn a good experience into an exceptional one, enhancing your client’s comfort and enjoyment.
Prepare the Essentials
Having a few essentials on hand can make the experience go smoothly. Items like a compact, tissues, mints, or a travel-sized fragrance can be discreet lifesavers. I recommend packing a small clutch or bag with these essentials so that you’re always prepared to freshen up as needed throughout the booking.
If you’re meeting in a setting where you’ll have a private space, it can also be helpful to carry a charger for your phone or any other tools you may need, ensuring that you can focus entirely on the client without any distractions.
Set Personal Boundaries Ahead of Time
Before you meet with a client, it’s important to be clear about your own personal boundaries. Knowing what you’re comfortable with will help you stay confident and in control throughout the booking. Take a few moments before each booking to remind yourself of these boundaries, and don’t be afraid to communicate them if necessary.
Setting boundaries isn’t just for your comfort – it’s also essential for maintaining a respectful, professional atmosphere. Most clients appreciate companions who are confident and self-assured, and being clear about your preferences can create a more relaxed and enjoyable experience for both parties.
Arrive a Few Minutes Early to Settle In
Arriving early gives you a few quiet moments to gather your thoughts and settle in. Whether you’re meeting at a restaurant, hotel, or private venue, being there a few minutes ahead of time allows you to get familiar with the surroundings and feel comfortable before the client arrives.
In my experience, this extra time can make a big difference in setting the tone for a smooth, stress-free start to the booking. It’s also an opportunity to do a final check of your appearance and gather any last thoughts on how you want to approach the evening.
Keep a Positive and Open Attitude
Meeting a new client or reconnecting with a regular is a unique part of the job, and keeping an open, positive mindset can enhance the experience. Approach the meeting with curiosity and flexibility, letting the conversation flow naturally. From my perspective, companions who bring warmth and openness to their interactions are the ones who truly stand out.
Having a positive attitude also makes it easier to adapt to any unexpected situations or changes, allowing you to remain calm and enjoy the experience, no matter what surprises the evening might bring.
Prioritise Safety as Part of Your Routine
While safety may not be the first thing that comes to mind when preparing for a meeting, it’s an important part of a smooth, enjoyable experience. If you’re meeting a client for the first time, be sure to let someone you trust know where you’ll be and when you expect to finish. If you’re independent, using a safety check-in app or arranging transportation that you can rely on can offer peace of mind.
Creating a safety routine helps you feel secure and allows you to focus fully on the client without any lingering concerns. When you know that you’re protected, it’s easier to relax and enjoy the evening.
To ensure you remain as safe as, I would suggest vetting the client, using tools like Client Eye, that can show blacklisted clients who are abussive. If you still come across a client who is difficult to deal with, read our guide on how to deal with drunk clients and how to deal with a client who won't back off.
Review Your Post-Meeting Routine
Having a post-meeting routine can help you wrap up each booking on a positive note and transition smoothly back to personal time. This could include checking in with a trusted friend, jotting down notes for future reference, or simply taking a few moments to unwind. For some, self-care rituals like a warm bath, reading a book, or enjoying a quiet cup of tea provide a sense of closure.
Ending the booking with these small, personal rituals can be a lovely way to unwind and recharge. They give you space to reflect, relax, and appreciate the work you’ve done before moving on to the next.
Preparation is Key for Success
Each client meeting is an opportunity to create a memorable, positive experience, and thoughtful preparation is the foundation for success. By prioritising self-care, setting clear boundaries, and planning ahead, you’re setting yourself up for a smooth, enjoyable booking that both you and your client can truly appreciate.
Preparing well not only makes the experience better for the client but also reinforces your own confidence and professionalism. As you go through each step, remember that your comfort, well-being, and peace of mind are the ultimate priorities.
