Many new escorts in London are now looking at upgrading their skills so that when they finish working as an escort, they have another career to fall back on. Escorts in London who work full time for themselves understand that they may not work as an escort for a long period and they are now looking to study something new or even upgrade their current skillset for the future.
Why Upgrade Your Skills
Many new escorts in London, may ask why would I need to upgrade or even obtain new skills? The answer is very easy, as a new escort, you may not know what will be ahead of you and how long you will be able to work as an escort. Escorts who work as full-time professional escorts and who have been in the sex industry for many years will completely understand why updating or obtaining new skills could not only come in handy but also hold them in good stead financially.
What If I don’t Have any Skills?
You may be asking at this point, what if I don’t have any current skills? The answer to your question is quite simple really, it’s never too late to plan for your future and invest yours in studying something new, starting a small business on the side or even to start a new career based on a hobby or sport you may enjoy.
I Plan on Working as an Escort as My Career
Quite often new escorts who have never worked in the sex industry before will have an image regarding how long they think they will work as an escort. Some new escorts in London quite often think that they will make sex work their full-time career for many years to come, especially if they are high class, well-groomed and highly motivated to make decent money.
Unfortunately, working as an escort in a country such as the UK can be very demanding on escorts, therefore, it’s important to learn how to pace yourself, take excellent care of your mental and physical health and plan for the future by always having extra skill sets you can call upon if need be.
Unforeseen Reasons
There are many unforeseen reasons why escorts can’t work as professional escorts on a long-time basis, many of those reasons are health-related, some of these reasons include burnout, isolation and sexually transmitted diseases.
Other foreseen reasons why escorts may leave the sex industry include social pressure from family and friends, as well as lack of financial income and stability to support themselves.
Safety Issues
Safety is another issue, many escorts who work professionally and on their own in the UK will experience negative experiences from time to time, thus resulting in safety issues. All escorts in the UK need ongoing support, especially when they work alone, having emergency contact people in place is absolutely essential to your longevity in this industry.
New to the Sex Industry
Escorts in London who are new to the sex industry will quite often struggle with major incidents or even minor incidents that arise throughout the day with clients who don’t behave appropriately, therefore it’s always best to have a few friends who work as escorts in the sex industry.
Having a buddy system with other escorts who work close by to where you are currently working is a good idea. In the event that you need an escort buddy to come and check on you, or call authorities, a buddy system with other escorts will surely come in handy and also give you peace of mind.
Use Time Valuably
Regardless of whether you are a new or an existing escort, learning how to use your time valuably between clients may very well be the answer to upgrading your skills, or even starting a new business on the side. Many new escorts go into the sex industry with rose-tinted glasses on, quite often they think that it will be glamorous and they will make plenty of money, however, the reality is very different and you may find yourself struggling to pay your rent and bills at times.
Start Simple
If you have no current skill set or have no idea on how to start a small business on the side, then it’s best to start simple and slow, try not to overcomplicate things or you may give up before you even start. Baby steps are always recommended at first, put one foot in front of the other by allowing yourself time to adjust to your new schedule.
Study Online
For those escorts who perhaps never finished high school, you could take some online subjects and work on them between clients. There are many hours throughout the day where you will be waiting for clients to message and book with you, so you could study between clients, therefore using your time valuably.
Start an Online Business
Starting an online business is another option you could explore, while you work as an escort. In between your clients you could start small and set up some type of online business that you could work on and manage when you work from your home or hotel as an escort.
Online businesses are like any other profession, they take time to build and require dedicated work, however, if you consistently work on them, quite often they can turn into a lucrative business that will turn over consistent revenue that you will be able to live off in the years to come.
In Summary
Upgrading your skills while you work as an escort is highly advisable and extremely wise, you never know how long you will be able to work as a professional escort in the UK, so it’s always best to have a backup plan for when you exit the sex industry.
