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.
