In Sydney’s competitive escort industry, establishing and upholding your worth is crucial. While building rapport with clients is part of the craft, occasional requests for discounts can test even the most seasoned professionals. At Australian Escorts (AE), we empower companions to navigate these moments with confidence and poise. Here’s how to say “no” to discount requests gracefully, preserving both your income and professionalism.
1. Reinforce Your Value with Confidence
Why It Works: Clients often ask for discounts out of habit, not malice. Redirect the conversation to your expertise, exclusivity, and the unique experience you provide.
How to Respond:
“I appreciate your interest! My rates reflect the time, training, and care I invest in creating unforgettable moments. Let’s focus on crafting an experience that’s worth every dollar for you.”
AE Pro Tip:
Highlight credentials in your profile (e.g., “Certified in Couples Therapy Techniques” or “VIP Access to Sydney’s Top Venues”) to preemptively justify your rates.
2. Offer Alternatives, Not Price Cuts
Why It Works: Providing options maintains your rate structure while showing flexibility.
How to Respond:
-
Adjust Duration:
“A shorter session might better fit your budget today. I’d love to offer my 2-hour ‘CBD Sunset Experience’ at $X instead.”
-
Promote Packages:
“I don’t discount single bookings, but my 3-date ‘Sydney Harbour Retreat Package’ includes exclusive perks at a reduced hourly rate!”
Local Flavor:
Bundle experiences tied to Sydney’s culture, such as a “Bondi Brunch & Beach Walk” add-on, to add perceived value without lowering prices.
3. Leverage “Company Policy” as a Neutral Shield
Why It Works: Blaming AE’s policies removes personal conflict and reinforces professionalism.
How to Respond:
“I’d love to accommodate, but AE’s pricing guidelines ensure fair standards for all companions. Let’s explore other ways to make our time special!”
AE’s Support System:
Use our pre-written scripts and profile tools to automate responses to common requests, keeping interactions smooth and consistent.
4. Deflect with Humor and Charm
Why It Works: Lightheartedness disarms tension while keeping the door open for future bookings.
How to Respond:
“If I offered discounts, I’d have to start charging double for my charm—and trust me, that’s priceless!”
“You’re paying for Sydney’s best—I promise I’ll make it worth your while.”
When to Use:
Ideal for repeat clients or low-pressure scenarios, like casual drinks at The Glenmore Hotel in The Rocks.
What Not to Do: Common Mistakes to Avoid
-
Over-Explain: Avoid justifying your rates excessively—it undermines confidence.
-
Apologize: Saying “sorry” implies you’ve done something wrong.
-
Budge “Just This Once”: Exceptions set precedents. Stay firm.

Mia, AE Companion:
“A client asked for a discount for a weekday evening. Instead of lowering my rate, I offered a ‘Midweek Magic’ package with a sunset harbor cruise. He booked it and became a regular!”
