Depending on the client, I would rather they see me more often, with less time, but it's really up to them, not me. I am grateful for any client who repeats.
I am even more grateful to clients who are grateful. I have a client who has been with me from 1998 when I used to charge him $150. for an outcall (back then in-calls were not common). Now he comes to me for in-calls. Even though I dropped my in-call rate over the years down to $120 (which he is fully aware of), he still gives me $150 because he says I'm the only expense he has that hasn't gone up for him in 10 years.
I am not impressed with the greedy types. I've had other guys say, instead of $120, can you do $100? Right now I have dropped my in-call rate to $100 (summer special), so yes, I will make them aware of it. Then they ask, well for me, can you make it $80, then? Do you see where this is going? It doesn't matter if you lower your rate, some guys are ungrateful enough to thing they're so special, I should lower it further. C'mon give me a break.
I am sure there are ladies who have certain arrangements with special clients, but we are not going to go around advertising that because then other guys will snivel and want it to.
I know an SP who used to (she still may) give a free session to clients on their birthday if they were regulars of hers (at least once a month, I believe).
