USE AUTOFILL TEXT Most phones will allow you to generate autofill text shortcuts. Use this to your advantage by creating an auto-fill short cut for messages you regularly send such as rates. Instead of having to type your rates out with auto-fill you can type ‘xrates’ & your rates will auto-generate

We take turns

COPY & PASTE Keep a notes file in your phone with commonly asked information (such as your deposit details) that you can easily copy and paste when texting with clients.

How many beds have you broken, do you think?

DEPOSIT POLICY Make sure to have your deposit policy clearly listed on your website in order to fulfil your legal obligations as a business.

*Instant rage*

WATCH OUT Watch out for recording technology such as fake glasses. Get clients to leave all personal belongings outside room, if they really need glasses make sure to inspect them first for a hidden camera.

Cry harder bro the price will only go up.

DON’T FORGET Set reminders in your calendar when you update your ads of when your package will expire so you know when you will need to update again.

You didn't specify what kind!

USE DATA ANALYSIS TO SAVE MONEY Ask your clients which directory they found you through, collate and analyse the data to show you which sites you should be investing your advertising budget into.

There is always a reason.

MIX IT UP If you have the ability to, try working on different days and times. You may find a pattern emerge. Different workers often make different amounts of money on different days/times. Find out what works best for you.

Why even send an empty booking form!?

UTILISE APPS There are a few different apps out there you can use to record data about your business such as hours worked, $ earned and clients seen. BSC recommends Ruby the App, it’s designed by a swer for swers!

Whats your most absurd " I want the booking now" story?

BUDDY UP Use the buddy system, have a trusted friend or co-worker who you can check in with before and after a booking, and have a plan in place for what they should do if you don't respond to a check in.

Why would you think you can ask that?

PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY Don’t share images between your private and sw socials. If you use a selfie as your private social media or dating profile don’t post it to your work socials or ads. Never connect the two.

*Rage Increasing*

MAKE IT EASY Put the most important information (like location) at the top of your ad in bold.

Sex work is work.

GET TESTED Instant Scripts and Stigma Health provide easy methods of organising your testing online

Not one word of truth here 😂

DEPOSIT HACK You can deposit cash at Australia Post, between $4-9K per transaction depending on your bank.

Or to pay a deposit.

PAY IN CASH You can pay your bills, land tax, council rates, and ATO bills at Australia Post in cash.

Protect the newbies!

SEO HACK When you buy a domain for your website, buying similar domains and pointing them to each other helps for SEO and human error with typos.

Honestly if you bend me that way, what happens is your own fault.

FIRST AID Many community organisations offer first aid courses as well as Naloxone training for free. Find one in your area!

What's your pre shift ritual?

GET VAXXED FOR FREE Thorne Harbour Health in Melbourne and KRC in Sydney offer free MPOX vaccinations.

They only get mad they have to pay us.

TRACK YOUR BOOKINGS Keep a dedicated notebook or secure digital file to track all your bookings, including dates, times, and client details. This helps you stay organised and is crucial if you ever need to reference past interactions.

That first conversation:

LUBE HACK If you’re going through a lot of lube, consider buying it in bulk or opting for a brand that offers refillable containers. It’s more cost-effective and eco-friendly!

When you finally show up to that town he asked you to come to:

It very much feels like this..

TAX HACK Keep detailed records of your income and expenses throughout the year, and make sure you save receipts! When tax time comes, you’ll be grateful for the organisation and it could save you money by ensuring you claim all possible deductions.
