Prostitutes do not give discounts for new clients, but they sometimes do for repeat ones. This does not mean a client will receive 20% off on his second visit, but rather that after five or eight or ten visits it will be appropriate for him to discuss the issue of a slightly better rate over the long-term. Prostitutes vary widely in their pricing systems and the reasoning behind them, so care should be taken to approach the issue respectfully. On the flip side, prostitutes well-know where their money is coming from. If a client is hiring a prostitute on a regular basis, he will have a vested interest in keeping that client happy. This may be in the form of extra time during each visit, or may in the form of reduced rates or other considerations. When an escort or masseur raises his rates, often he will not do so for his more frequent or favored clients. It is entirely possible an escort is already giving the client a discount, but the client does not know it.
