Anyone else notice this?
Sure, if you wanna book days in advanced there are some, but I am too busy for that usually

Lack of independent providers in downtown Vancouver?

The irony of this 😂 why are you too busy to book in advance? Probably for the same reasons we are too busy to book last minute.
Many of us have busy lives and aren’t just lying around fully done up waiting for men to text us. Also, living downtown is expensive so many rent incalls, which are shared with other providers and often booked in advance.
If you were going to see any other professional—hairdresser, doctor, lawyer, tattoo artist, massage therapist, to name a few—you would book in advance with no issues. Why are we different?

How is it ironic?
Laywers and Doctors actually are typically available same day. same with alot of massage therapists and hairdressers.
Theres still many providers who accommodate same day. I guess maybe they just have more opportunities for clients than you.
all good reason to chose agency woman over indy
There is something wrong with your spell check. Must be an I D 10 t error.
Indy's are for the most part low volume, whereas some Agencies are less so. Indy's get to keep most, if not all, of the donation, whereas some agencies take as much as 50%. Just letting you know what the reality is.
Good luck with finding a doctor, not a clinic, but a doctor and a lawyer that offers same day, you might as well represent yourself. And I know many ladies that have to pre-book a week or more for an appointment with a hairdresser and Massage Parlors, it is there business model to offer same day.
You need to stay in your lane.

I agree with everything Charlee said…and sure there maybe some doctors (like in walk-in clinics) and hairdressers (in bigger salons) where you can walk in and get same-day service…sometimes even really great service! But I have to book my family doctor at least a week in advance, and I obviously prefer him over a walk-in clinic because he knows me and my history. Same with your go-to hairdresser who you specifically love and does your hair perfectly—or a hairdresser who heard about and has a great reputation. You MIGHT get lucky once in a while and they have an opening but usually if you want someone specific, or someone highly reputable, you’re better off booking in advance.
I can sometimes accommodate same-day bookings, and I *personally* don’t mind people trying their luck but it’s rare…if i don’t have anyone booked I’ll make other plans because I am also busy.
I’m also confused by your last comment to Charlee, “Theres still many providers who accommodate same day”…do you mean providers who work in agencies? Or independent? Because if it’s the latter, if there are ‘still many’ then why did you make this post?

The only time I’ve been able to see a doctor same day downtown is lining up for hours before clinics open. And yes massage therapists and hairdressers sometimes, but not usually (or ever) indie ones who manage their own businesses downtown. I have to book my hairdresser weeks in advance, and my massage therapist is the same.
If there are many providers who accommodate same day why don’t you go see them? Your reply doesn’t make sense to me.
Srry, english is my second language
I know, I see indys and agencies. and enjoy both. I was speaking in his particular case since he is complaining about indys not working for him.
If you have a big enough bank account, the best doctors and lawyers in the country will be available to you same day.
You are merely exposing what socioeconomic bracket you are in, rather than dunking on him.
You are also straight up being racist towards @BoaChoi for not speaking english well.

Ignore them.
If these providers were successful and their businesses were booming, generating significant profits, they would likely be more receptive to constructive feedback and wouldn't be bothered by your opinions and preferences.
And they surely wouldn't launch into personal attacks and ad hominems.
This is famine mentality on display.

I'm a fan of both agencies and independents - I don't have a preference between the two and I use both.
As long as the provider is pleasant, attractive, and gives good service, I am happy.
However, after reading some of the providers' responses in this thread (and other threads recently), I have to admit that it has been kind of off-putting. The negativity and aggression towards clients is really discouraging. So, to be honest, I'm starting to think that agencies might be a better way to go for me - at least they provide a buffer between me and any potential crazies or drama.

I am a lawyer, you can see lawyers same day.
Doctors at walk-in clinics are still doctors.
Some hair dressers and massage therapist, keyword: some.
Because whilst many providers do same day, plenty still don't. and plenty of the ones that do are not downtown (read title of thread). Same day also used to be more common a couple years ago.
@SSL Management stay in my lane? lol what does that mean 😂 and who even are you? show us your ad since you are paying for one.
They need time to find out what kind of assholes we are, the tolerable kind or the stinky ones.
I don't know about other cocks, but when my Junior gets the urge, he's gotta have it Right Fucking Now. Something penciled in for next Thursday just isn't going to work for him; it riles him like a bad prostate.
Because sex is supposed to be spontaneous. Not something you book next week like a dentist. Both involve drilling, but they're not the same.
So when Junior starts tugging at my Saxx strings, I start going down the list and going with the first lady who can accommodate the little guy.
Which to be honest has landed me in some pretty sketchy situations.
Peckers are monsters. You think you control them. But they control you.
I know of at least one "agency" that doesn't pre-book (at least for appointments less than 1 hr.) You can't just make general assumptions about everyone/place.
How is any of this “constructive feedback”? How are any of us “bothered”? He asked a question and we are answering. Calm down 😂
Again, this is why agencies exist. Nothing wrong with it if that’s what you want. But when you manage your own business it’s hard to be available at the drop of a hat.
What, you dont sit by the phone in lingerie just waiting for that call 24/7?
I would like to find an independent provider in Southeast Vancouver close to Champlain Heights who is straight and not a druggie.
Low volume by choice?
They keep the majority of the donation, minus the overhead, so in many cases, they are likely taking a similar cut into their profits.
