Okay, so I'm not clear on how you'r...@ Lex<br /><br />Okay, so I'm not clear on how you're not finding escort services in Google. I just searched for relevant keywords, as discussed in the book, in a list of cities and I found plenty. <br /><br />There's a few in Orlando, more in Miami, and Tampa was odd - in the first few pages of search results I only found lots of directory / publisher type sites with lots of listings. It's almost as if the escort businesses decided to skip having a website, which is always a serious or even fatal error. Some people are just cheap and think they can spend zero to little on marketing and advertising. <br /><br />In 2017, my advice is to put all of your marketing $s into a fantastic and unique website. Sure, a bold print one-line in the correct yellow pages in the area, and the other advice I offer on my website, which updates the books, but mainly a great website. <br /><br />Hope that helps and feel free to let me know what you see when you search. Perhaps you have search results filtered? <br />Vicky Gallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00824040831924128720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548451175908173719.post-57364806842943486602016-12-19T23:33:43.939-05:002016-12-19T23:33:43.939-05:00@ Lex

I've read some of those really bad books on business, so was trying to avoid that. <br /><br />The only thing that really changes from the books to the actual setup and operation is the marketing and advertising of the business. Figure the latest book (Blueprint) was published in 2012, and the one most people purchase (Complete Blueprint) in 2010. Marketing and advertising is often area specific and evolving according to current levels of acceptance, so even if I published a new book next month, that topic may or may not apply to the area one intends to open in. This is why searching and researching, in addition to taking notes, is an important part. <br /><br />1. Escort services will always make money whether it's 1980 or 2020, so yes, I consider it a viable business today. I have always taken the cautionary road though, so all of the current surveillance really isn't an issue to me. You may have read it in the book, but I live by the rule that anything I say could be subject to recording. I speak and act accordingly - always have. <br /><br />If you are referring to the current phase of independent escorts, well, they have always been around and will be in the future. You're really not seeking clients who want to book way in advance anyway. You're looking for the clients who want a simpler process when they're ready to call. Could be compared to pizza delivery, but 30 minutes is not realistic these days, although 1 hour should be. <br /><br />2. No, my thoughts haven't changed by much if at all. Forget Orlando, love Miami, and Tampa is okay, but low rates, too many services, and a somewhat cheap scene in general. <br /><br />3. I really don't want to link any business here as it might give it negative attention. I'll search in a few minutes and return to let you know what I found in general. Give me an hour please. <br /><br />Hope this helps.Vicky Gallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00824040831924128720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548451175908173719.post-91082710057285407812016-12-19T22:45:49.851-05:002016-12-19T22:45:49.851-05:00Hi Vicky, came across your book yesterday. I was l...Hi Vicky, came across your book yesterday. I was looking for some info on this topic. I have been interested for years. Bought the blueprint to read on kindle. Bad ass writing. Others in different business should look at how you laid it out and copy it for their business book. There's really bad books on business out there with horrible advice.<br /><br />After reading I do have questions.<br /><br />1. Is this still a real business to be in, right now going to 2017?<br /><br />2. To my surprise this book is based on my home town of central Florida. Has your opinion on any of these " Orlando, Tampa, Miami" changed. Like don't do it in Orlando, Miami will be better or is Tampa even a option?<br /><br />3. I have searched on google for a website that resembles what you are talking about to get an idea of what it is. For the life of me I can't find anything. Where are the escort websites at? <br /><br />Thank you for your time in advance,<br /><br />LexAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548451175908173719.post-41598615120381070042014-01-29T21:59:49.296-05:002014-01-29T21:59:49.296-05:00May you have the best year ever Anonymous!May you have the best year ever Anonymous!Vicky Gallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00824040831924128720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548451175908173719.post-15679474400685981502014-01-29T19:52:30.816-05:002014-01-29T19:52:30.816-05:00Thanks for such a heartfelt post.
