Introduction

A charming woman by a man's side at an important social event, as a companion in a nightclub, or as a playmate for a night. Escort agencies make these experiences possible. How does this business with charms work? Perhaps you would like to work as an escort yourself, are just curious, or are doing research, then read on.

Here we tell you for the first time first-hand about Escort77, the Escort Berlin service. Personal experiences, figures, facts, and anecdotes alternate and paint an exciting picture of an escort agency and its daily work. What does it look like behind the scenes? Who are the women who do this job and why do men enjoy this carefree experience? An insider look for the interested reader.

We talk about the diverse work that is done here and what the structure and tasks of a reputable Escort Berlin agency look like. The differences between escorts and brothels/establishments are highlighted, as well as the average prices of escort and companion agencies nationwide. Many students work with upscale agencies, we explain why and how many actually do so. Different types of clients book companions for various reasons, where it is clear that discretion, health, and cleanliness must be ensured. Good organization is essential in the escort service, a profession that could not be more diverse in disciplines and required skills.

Structure and Tasks of an Escort Agency

"So, to be honest, I don't actually understand why I should work for an escort agency. I'm the one doing the actual work. What does the agency do? Convince me otherwise." Comment from an applicant at an interview

It is probably due to the classic image of the red-light milieu, the idea of the evil, lazy "overseer" and the hard-working woman who is often fallen for him or even forced to work. This idea then mentally often transfers to other areas of the erotic business, including the escort service and the actual agency behind it.

An idea that could not be further from the daily reality of a modern escort agency in the federal capital. When an escort works with a serious escort agency, a clear difference from the rest of the milieu is noticeable. Here we speak from our own experience, with women who have not had good experiences in the escort business before our agency. The seriousness of an escort agency is definitely recognizable by the clear organization, business philosophy, and implementation.

Usually, an escort does not work for, but with the escort agency. They are not employees but independent and mainly use marketing and other services.

The escort agency, in turn, is responsible for a variety of thematically different tasks.

Among others:

• Care of the escort ladies
• Finances and advice
• Photos
• Customer acquisition/marketing
• Customer advice
• Organization of appointments

The care of the call girls is a significant point. Many call girls in Berlin and Germany do not register their trade, do not take care of a pension plan or health insurance. In particular, the commercial and tax aspects must be properly conveyed to beginners before starting work.

A well-organized agency has clear ideas about customer service and guidelines that employees can follow. Starting with telephone service, ensuring the safety of the ladies and the ladies themselves. How the customer is treated on site and provided for the most pleasant service, without, however, that the customer himself may cross certain limits. The limits for both, escort ladies and clients, are clearly defined so that no confusion arises during the meeting.

A woman can still be beautiful and educated, but if she is portrayed in the wrong light. The right photos are a good start here. They should emphasize the character of the respective lady, highlight the optical advantages in the right light, without however distorting the customer or conveying a false image. A feminine figure should also be advertised as such. Customers who prefer petite women do not want to book a fuller lady through photos and be dissatisfied when they meet, while lovers of curves are delighted.

An appealing profile of the lady, consisting of photos and a good text is extremely important. With this profile, advertising is placed on the homepage of the escort agency and other advertising portals and should inform the customer as well as possible and arouse interest. Marketing is significant in that it represents customer acquisition.

Customers have various demands on customer service and service before a booking. Some customers trust the tip of the agency, others want to be extensively informed, about the service of the respective lady, the character and preferences. Others have specific clothing wishes and special demands on discretion. For longer bookings, where a customer wants to be accompanied throughout the day or several days, the consultation duration and intensity naturally increase.

Appointments and meetings must be managed organizationally. Since the safety and punctuality of the escort ladies are of high importance, structured scheduling and sufficient consultation are necessary. On hot days, at trade fairs or events in Berlin, this clear organization of appointments pays off.

Differences between Escort Agencies and Brothels

Customers who book an escort companion either do not want to be seen in a brothel, find it more pleasant to meet the lady in a familiar environment, or would like to be accompanied to a club, for wellness or dining in addition.

Especially because of the often requested escort service, it is important that the respective ladies speak German flawlessly and are generally communicative and eloquent [1]. This aspect is less considered in establishments, such as brothels or in escort agencies where very short bookings are possible, as it is of less importance for the customers.

Especially educated, sexually open women who value flexibility in their profession and free time management, this profession offers several advantages. From a good agency, on the other hand, attention is paid to which ladies one works with.

It is not uncommon for students to have an escort job alongside their studies. This occurs more often than thought, so a study by the Studienkolleg zu Berlin [2] was quite surprising. In this survey on the work of students in sex jobs, almost 3300 questionnaires were evaluated in Berlin.

According to this statistic, the following applies:

3.7% of all Berlin students work as sex workers. Of these, 50% offer direct sexual services; others only sexually related services. Of these 50%, 80% offer an escort service with erotic action. If this statistic is applied to the total number of all female students in Berlin, we come up with an estimate of 1100 students in the escort service area. This number is of course only an approximate estimate but shows that this work is not uncommon even among women with higher education. The main reason for practicing the escort job was the very good income, but not as the only reason. The search for adventures and experiences, as well as sex with strange men, were given as reasons.

Higher education or even certificates, however, are not a mandatory requirement for the job in an escort agency. Value is mainly placed on the lady feeling comfortable in the role of the seductress. Our experience shows: It is quickly found out whether this profession is right for one or not. If it is not, as with any other job, one should rather look for the profession that really suits one. Forcing oneself into a profession associated with intimacy does not work.

Average Prices of Escort and Companion Agencies Nationwide

The prices for the escort service vary depending on the federal state and city, as well as according to performance and escort agency. We looked at the escort prices nationwide. Our evaluation includes the average prices for one hour of booking duration and the price ranges between the respective escort agencies in a city.

In each city, 5 representative companies were selected and included in the calculation.

As a rule, the arrival of the escort lady is already included in the price and extras (French kissing, Greek) are charged additionally. In addition, some agencies require a minimum booking duration of 2 hours. In this case, we halved the price for 2 hours and simplified it to one hour.

Our evaluation of the escort prices resulted in the following:

In Berlin, the escort service is the cheapest on average with 140 euros for the 1st hour. The most expensive in Munich with an average of 230 euros. Also in Berlin, you can find the lowest price among all compared escort agencies with 90 euros/hour. In Berlin, the price range is very wide. From 90 to 200 euros you pay for the 1st hour of escort service. In Hamburg and Cologne, the price is almost the same in all agencies, at 200 euros. The largest selection of different escort services is clearly in Berlin, where there are many companion agencies serving different market segments, while in Cologne the competition is divided among a few.

Customer Types - Why Do Men Book Escorts?

"Customer: I don't want sex. It's important that the lady is really beautifully dressed and elegant and looks naturally, yet attractive. Oh, and she should also be able to act well. Escort77 Customer Service: Yes, of course, I can think of some of our ladies who would suit you, what exactly is it about? Customer: She should accompany me to a party tonight where my ex-girlfriend will be. We just broke up recently. Then it will proceed as follows..." Modified excerpt from a booking conversation.

Why do men actually book escort ladies?

In some magazines, you can read stories from former escorts from time to time. These are either dry or drift into extremes that are often not really credible, especially not if you have been working in this profession for a long time.

The portrayal of escort clients is also strongly distorted in the media. The much-cited study by the Ministry of Health from 1994 by Kleber and Velten states that customers absolutely correspond to the average of the population in terms of psychology, propensity for violence, average age, and educational level. Escort customers are at most somewhat better situated in terms of income than the average prostitution customer.

A booking can range from an hour and quick sex to an escort for a vacation. The range is actually broad, as are the motives. Men who often travel and therefore cannot maintain long relationships often also like to book with an escort agency. It's uncomplicated, you can rely on the lady to appear reliably and leave after the encounter without any obligations arising.

A good friend is celebrating his birthday in a club and is approached by a lady there, everything takes its planned course and the birthday becomes an experience. Escort ladies are supposed to seduce, so bookings by friends for special occasions are not rare and represent a very special gift.

Some men have only a few experiences with women, are shy and more reserved. Accordingly, they want to improve their overall dealings with women. Good empathy on the part of the lady is required here and customers usually already indicate this themselves. Experience tells us that especially these customers benefit greatly from a date and the associated pleasant experience afterwards. Much fear and insecurity is taken away and a certain foundation is created on which the man can continue to build. Lived and experienced psychology so to speak.

Some couples want to refresh their relationship and sex life and decide on an escort lady, especially if they are inexperienced in this area. Interestingly, it is often the female part who chooses the appropriate playmate, while the man confirms his consent. Preference is thus given to the lady.

Ensuring Discretion

"So you can forget about my cell phone number and name. I have to remain anonymous, if this comes out, you don't know what kind of avalanche would be triggered." Customer on the phone

Discretion is very important in the escort, starting with the acceptance of the booking. Customer data is stored by a good agency only as long as necessary for the processing of the appointment. For short-term bookings, this is usually unproblematic, as it is booked on the same day or a few hours before the actual meeting. At the latest the next day, the customer data can be deleted.

Bookings, where the customer wants to meet a specific escort girl several days or weeks later, it is important to consider the following:

It is agreed in advance with the customer whether contact by mail or phone is desired. If the phone is offered as a contact option, it is further clarified whether contact can be made by SMS or with a call and at what times. Storing customer numbers without explicit customer request or even using them for sending advertising is highly unprofessional and is taboo.

The escort ladies are additionally informed about discretion in a conversation. Unless otherwise desired by the customer, fashionable, moderate appearance is recommended in terms of clothing. Very short clothing and high heels quickly attract attention, in many hotels one is used to it, but the appointment should be as pleasant and relaxed as possible for the customer.

The customer is offered several options for contacting the lady, depending on the situation. After all, two previously unknown people are meeting here for the first time, possibly in public, in a restaurant. It is nice when the meeting is uncomplicated and friendly, simply natural. This is also discretion in the escort area.

Especially ladies who work with a serious agency are adult personalities and understand the importance of confidentiality. Conversations with the customer and their content, especially of a personal nature, remain personal. If a customer is prominent or active and known in business life, this applies more strictly.

Health and Cleanliness in the Escort

Customers expect an escort agency not only to ensure punctuality and smooth running of their booking but also clean and well-groomed ladies.

In connection with prostitution, drug and alcohol consumption are often mentioned, but these are absolutely out of place if one wants to work with an upscale escort service. A customer who makes a long booking also wants to enjoy good conversation. A few glasses of champagne or wine do no harm, of course.

Some studies have shown that women in the red-light district are rather reluctant to mention their profession during doctor visits and prefer to visit anonymized and free checks for sexually transmitted diseases [3]. Such a study, however, referred very much to women who had recently moved to Germany, often without papers and a legal status. Ladies in higher-class escort agencies, however, cannot work without legitimate papers and very good German skills. Therefore, it can be assumed that these women also visit medical checks much more often. These checks are a point that must also be addressed by the agency to take away the shyness of medical visits and to clarify the responsibility for one's own health.

In an extreme case from the USA, doctors found a condom in the airways of a call girl [4]. The escort girl was not willing on her own to address the problem and cause of her breathing problems. Only on request from the doctors and after a detailed examination was the cause found, before that, antibiotics had been administered unsuccessfully because an infection was assumed.

Medical publications have so far been rather hesitant in dealing with prostitution. During the Football World Cup in Germany, there were some concerns that the influx of tourists would attract a large number of prostitutes from Eastern Bloc countries [5]. This concern proved to be unfounded in retrospect. The corresponding article in the medical journal The Lancet was rather unprofessionally written and received criticism from physicians because it did not address the actual problem [6].

Conclusion

Working in the escort area is definitely more than varied, turbulent, different and yet somehow quite normal and everyday. Encounters with the most diverse types of people and professional fields are guaranteed.

This insider report has hopefully provided the reader with somewhat more and above all quite different, more honest information than previously accustomed.
