Escort agencies supply customers with escorts, typically with sexual services. The firm usually arranges for its escorts to meet with the client at the customer’s home or hotel room (outcall) or the escort’s residence (incall). Few companies often provide longer-term escorts, who can live with the client or accompany them on a vacation or business trip.

While the escort agency is compensated for dispatch service, and booking the client must agree on all extra payments or agreements individually with the escort for all other services not offered by the escort agency, such as delivering sexual services (regardless of the legality of these services).

Business plan

Since prostitution laws also prohibit accepting money for sex or communicating to negotiate a contract for sexual services, escort companies argue that they are dispatching certain persons to offer a social or conversational service rather than a sexual service.

Escort agency advertisements often straddle the legal side, not explicitly providing trafficking or sexual services. This point is understood by the police and political authorities, who, in areas where prostitution is illegal, tend to focus their efforts on the more obvious and troublesome street prostitution.

This wascondemned as hypocritical, especially in jurisdictions where escort agencies are licensed and taxed. However, there are almost definitely agencies that follow the rules that do not include aid trafficking. Some countries have taken a two-pronged approach to prostitution, criminalizing it on the street while allowing or licensing it in brothels or escort services.

Searching for candidates

Escort companies also advertise job openings in magazines or newspapers who find people to act as escorts. Escort companies typically have a roster of escorts of various ages and look on hand to appeal to their customers’ diverse needs. Some escort services specialize in a particular form of escort.Some escort services specialize in a particular form of escort.  Typically, agencies specialize in only one sex.  Some escort services have transsexual or bisexual escorts.

Escorts also join the industry through recommendations from friends who have previously worked in the industry. Any operators have doubted the efficacy of advertising in weeklies or niche pages because there are so many that they are blurred. Typically, an escort would meet with an agency for an interview.

When an employer hires an escort, they must have photos or pose for a photographer. To encourage sales, these photos are posted on the agency’s website or shared by customers. Any bigger escort companies have their escorts’ photo collections on their websites. Clients call companies by phone to describe the kind of escorts they are looking for.
