With events in Australia recently becoming quite chaotic, many sex workers are understandably about to hit a quiet patch (and likely one that is set to get worse). This can be concerning for many who rely on sexy work as the primary means of income, but rest assured, there are quite a few ways that you can productively spend this downtime. While this these quiet periods have the potential to affect escorts differently – with some having a particularly tough time – staying on top of things like branding and your marketing can be invaluable during this time, and you can think towards how you can maximise exposure, drive more (or even just maintain) traffic to your profile, bring in new clients and establish regular clientele – we show you how in this article.

Think about your photos

Quiet times can happen whether you’re an escort in Newcastle, Sydney, or any other populous city – if you’re prepared to see this interim as a time of positivity, you can actually use the time very effectively. Rather than sitting around watching Netflix waiting for a call or a message from a client, take the time to refresh your portfolio on any private escort websites it is featured on. Doing so can actually serve to generate new interest, and you’ll be able to better understand which photos work for clients by getting them to vote on them or provide helpful feedback. You can also use this time to take brand new images, which can be a great idea if you’ve been using the same photos for a long time. Even if you don’t plan on using the new photos right away, you won’t have to dedicate the time in future to the shoot. It might even be worth finding a photographer during these lulls to save a little bit of time in the future. If you don’t have the cash spare, brand new selfies can also fit the bill!

Revise your profile

It takes a good approach to marketing to become very successful as an escort, and one of the easiest ways you can inform this is to rewrite your “about me” section and any other relevant profile-related text. Take the time to dig deep and write some things that set you apart from the most of the other escorts, as customers appreciate the small details when it comes to choosing an escort – just make sure to not get too personal, for your own safety. This might also be a good time to change your rates, revising them to not only fall in line with relevant rates in your own city, but to factor any changes you have to your services. Many escorts provide packages that involve things like intimate dinners or overnight stays, so adding these to your available services might also be something you’re interested in. Also make sure to write some interesting descriptions for any packages you add to further entice new customers.

Think outside of the box when it comes to marketing

These are just a few of the things you can work on during down-times as an escort, so your options absolutely do not stop here. Many sex workers have very active social media accounts which they use to both interact with fans and customers and post interesting bits of news. This interaction can be invaluable in helping you stay at the forefront of customers minds, which can help a great deal during slow periods. Better yet, apply yourself creatively and think of some great marketing moves that no-one else has thought of yet!
