Yes, I agree with all of this and also:

I forget about this. There are those who see if you have lower rates you are some how vulnerable and they will try to push it down even more.

All such good points by Mistress Tissa and Domina M!

SWers face a high risk of burnout, being both such an emotional job and one with many unseen aspects we often do all by ourselves. Talking with M. Chloe, we agreed the worst part is generally the behind-the-scenes communications that happen prior to session; dealing with low-ballers and time wasters—oh, the entitlement! Rates are a simple way to maintain a level of quality clients with whom you personally feel you can handle the emotional load.

I am a big proponent of "work smarter, not harder!"

The truth is that a lot of clients will compare those two Mistresses and decide that Mistress A must be better if she's charging so much more and can get clients to pay it.

Also, unfortunately: a lot of the bargain-hunters are absolutely fixated on getting the most for the least, making them demanding, unpleasant, entitled clients. This is not to say that clients like this do not exist at higher price points -- but at least there they're paying enough to possibly be tolerated. Nor is this to say that lovely clients never see cheaper dommes, because they definitely do! But the bullshit-to-cash ratio does seem to get much worse as rates go down.


Yes, all of this. Well-put.

My impression is that the more experienced a domme is, the highest percentage of her time is spent with regulars. Secondly I also think that the price they pay depends less on the nominal price asked by the domme for new clients, which is what this post is about, then on for how long they have been regulars.

I also think that they find ways to make up for this, one of them being longer or more frequent sessions.

This is why I think that while important, the current price is more a symbol and has more impact on future earnings than on present ones.

As far as factors affecting it Aspx made a good analysis. We are at the end of a long economic boom and prices for mostly everything reflect that.
