The Art Of Pleasure: Skills Required For Successful Brothel Work In Sydney
Ever wondered what it takes to become an ultra-successful sex worker? Contrary to popular belief, many in-demand and highly transferable skills are required to make a great first impression and keep clients coming back for more. From perfecting your image and going the extra mile to service clients to setting boundaries and carrying yourself confidently, we’re breaking down everything you need to succeed in this highly competitive industry.
Hustle, hustle, hustle
Any established and successful businessman will tell you that the hustle separates the champions from the losers. Even when you’re exhausted, feeling under the weather, or ready to throw in the towel, the daily grind must continue. Whether you’re earning and making something from nothing, pursuing progress or maintaining that go-getter mindset, drive, ambition, and consistency will help you succeed.
Sex work is incredibly competitive and requires you to be at the top of your game. Most days, you’ll work as hard if not harder than your nine-to-five friends — so be prepared to put in the work, spend time perfecting your craft, and maintain that business mindset around the clock.
Carry yourself with confidence and fake it till you make it
Whether you’re hoping to make a great first impression, outperform your rivals, or prove you’re the best woman for the job, confidence will take you far in life. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself, take charge of the situation, and get things done. After all, if you believe in yourself, your clients will too.
Your online profile should echo a similar sentiment and portray you in your best light. Invest in a good website, hire a professional photographer to capture candid and posed shots with moody lighting and craft a well-written bio that grabs readers’ attention.
Your image is one of your greatest assets — so use it to your advantage
Unlike most 9 to 5 jobs where looks are irrelevant, sex workers rely on their appearance to entice prospective clients, build their customer base and sell their services. We’re not saying you need to be a size 0 with double Ds and long, blonde hair — we’re saying you need to put effort into perfecting your unique image so you can showcase your best assets. Make sure your makeup is on-point, your hair is presentable, and you dress in a way that flatters your body.
While maintaining your aesthetic can be pricey, consider it a worthwhile investment. After all, you are your business’s product and need to be at the top of your game to keep reaping the monetary and lifestyle benefits that come with brothel work.
Establish boundaries through strong communication skills
Once you’ve understood the different types of services available and ways of working in the industry, discover what services fit within your boundaries — these may be financial, physical, emotional or mental barriers you’ve put in place to stay safe.
Draw the line at anal sex or can’t stand golden showers? No worries! State this in your online profile and maintain open communication channels with your clients so they know what you’re comfortable partaking in. Before you get down to business, chat with them about their expectations, what they hope to achieve, and what services they desire. If they’re looking for something outside of what you’re comfortable performing or offering, you can try redirecting your client or politely declining the job. It’s often cheaper to lose a client than pay the price for not respecting your emotional, personal and professional boundaries.
Many sex workers also like to keep a professional distance from their clients. While interactions help develop and cultivate long-term client relationships, be extremely careful with what you share — including your real name or any details about your life outside work. If you’re sharing personal information during brothel work, they may take this as a sign they’re less of a client and more of a friend, which could disrupt or destroy your working relationship. If your client is disclosing information you do not wish to hear, consider this a red flag and redirect the conversation to another topic.
Be proactive about your health and safety
Whether you’re an independent escort or working at an agency, ensuring that you take time to screen your clients is particularly important. If they seem shady, suspicious, pushy, and aggressive, or their body language tells a different story, trust your gut instincts, take these as warning signs and decline the job.
Performing client health checks is also a standard procedure. You should have an in-depth understanding of sexually transmitted infections and be able to check for visible signs of STIs. Each worker has a different way of going about this — some take on the role of a sexy nurse performing a seductive health check, while others may take a more clinical approach. Experiment with what feels most comfortable, but ensure a routine inspection is part of every service you offer.
A top tip: Even if your client passes the screening test, if you sense fear or danger, protect yourself and decline the service. It’s better to be safe than sorry — and your health and safety matter most at the end of the day.
Discipline
Unlike a typical day job, you usually have control over how many hours of brothel work you complete and who you choose to service. While the option to choose or decline clients is a luxury most envy, to succeed, you need to persist and maintain discipline.
Treat your daily grind like a classic office job, and be vigilant about how you delegate your time and how many hours you work each day. If you keep hustling and grinding, you’ll reach heights of success you never knew were possible in the world of sex work.
Adaptability
No two clients are the same. One day, you might meet a first-time client who wants to ease into things with a long talk and the next, you might be servicing a regular who knows what they want down to the nitty-gritty details. In the world of brothel work, adapting to your client’s unique needs and fulfilling their crazy desires will guarantee their satisfaction and keep them coming back for more.
