1) Step-by-Step: The Canadian Booking Flow
Across Canada—whether you’re in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Montréal, or a smaller city—the booking process follows a predictable, professional rhythm. Providers and agencies prioritize safety, privacy, and respectful communication. Here’s the typical flow:
-
Define your basics
Decide on the city, ideal date, a realistic time window (e.g., 7:00–8:00 pm), desired duration, and whether you prefer incall or outcall. If you’re flexible on start time, say so—flexibility often leads to faster confirmations.
-
Shortlist companions
Browse reputable profiles or agency directories. Look for clear recent photos, availability notes, touring dates, etiquette pages, and screening instructions. Favour profiles that feel current and consistent across platforms.
-
Read policies first
Before messaging, read the provider’s etiquette and booking page end-to-end. You’ll understand their communication preferences, screening options, deposit norms, and cancellation windows—so your first message can be complete and courteous.
-
Send a concise introduction
Use a short, professional message (templates below). Share your first name, city, date, time window, duration, incall/outcall, and the screening items you’re ready to provide. Avoid explicit service talk; it slows things down and may cause the request to be declined.
-
Complete screening promptly
Canadian providers typically request light verification for new clients. Have your chosen screening option ready (e.g., ID check as requested, references, or professional verification). Send it through the channel they specify.
-
Confirm details & deposit if needed
When your request is accepted, you’ll receive the time, meeting instructions, and any deposit or travel fee details. Confirm in one message and save the instructions. Keep payment notes neutral if a deposit is requested.
-
Arrive prepared
On the day, be clean, punctual, and discreet. If you’re running late, send one polite update with a new ETA. Follow the provider’s arrival instructions closely—especially for condos, hotel lobbies, and secure buildings.
