Can you believe that there is a career path with regular opportunities for sex and the chance to be paid handsomely for it at the same time? It sounds too good to be true, but it is a viable job and a reality for many.
The decision to become an escort can arise from a desire for sexual satisfaction, curiosity, or the potential for high earnings. However, it is not a job for everyone, and you must understand the risks and benefits before deciding. Whether you plan to work full-time, part-time, or as a hobbyist, if you are confident this is the right career choice, refer to this blog post. We discuss all you need to know about becoming an escort in Auckland and how the difference between freelancing and escort agency work.
How Does Escorting Work in New Zealand?
In New Zealand, prostitution, brothel-keeping, and street solicitation are all legal activities under the Prostitution Reform Act 2003. This Act decriminalised sex work and established a minimal regulatory framework. It classifies any establishment that offers sexual services as a “brothel.” Operators must hold a special license and ensure sex workers are over 18 years old and practice safer sex.
Escort agencies and freelance escorting work are also legal under the same legislation. The law treats sex work through an escort agency similarly to sex work in a brothel. Sex workers who work through an escort agency are considered independent contractors, not employees. The agency is responsible for ensuring that the workers are over 18 years old, practice safer sex, and have the legal right to work in New Zealand.
How Do I Become an Escort?
Becoming an escort takes more than just an interest in the job; you must also possess the necessary aptitude. The best escorts display charm and emotional sensitivity when attending to clients, like a customer service job where great service leads to higher ratings and better pay.
While certain body shapes and descents (lucky ladies boasting ample bosoms or Asian escorts, for example) may be in higher demand, a pretty face and sexy figure will only get you so far. Contrary to the misconception that escorting is simply about the sexual aspect, building a genuine connection with clients is often just as important. Some clients will seek out escorts not only for physical services but also for companionship. Some clients want somebody to confide in without fear of judgment, so being a good listener and providing emotional support are key characteristics to succeed in escorting.
Agency or Freelance?
Escort Agency Work
If you’re new to escort work, joining a reputable escort agency can be a great way to start. Escort agency work can provide a stronger sense of safety and security than independent work. To find a reputable agency, look online, talk to other escorts, or contact your local sex worker advocacy group for recommendations.
We recommend visiting different agencies and asking questions to find one that suits you best. Although the agency will take a portion of your income, the numerous benefits outweigh the cost. For instance, the agency will handle your bookings and screen your clients, providing you with safety and security. A reputable agency will respect your limits and boundaries, providing a safe and hygienic work environment. Plus, your agency can answer any questions and provide valuable resources.
Freelance Escorting
Freelance escorting means you can work for yourself without a license, with the freedom to work from home or any other place you prefer. You can market your services independently by creating a website or social media presence to promote yourself. Alternatively, you can advertise your services as an independent contractor on escort websites like VIP Girls.
One of the benefits of being a freelance escort is that you have complete control over your schedule and workload, and you can set your prices and keep all the profits. However, this also means you’re responsible for managing bookings, screening your clients, and ensuring your safety.
Day to Day Operations
Recognising and setting your limitations while working as an escort will aid in maintaining a healthy balance between work and personal life.
Set Boundaries
Clear boundaries ensure you are comfortable and safe. Before booking any clients, determine what services you are willing to offer and the relevant fees. You can choose whether to provide full service or cater to specific clients. Determining what you are unwilling to do is in your control, such as unprotected sex.
Establishing physical and emotional boundaries is equally essential, as you need to know your limits and what makes you feel comfortable. Take care of yourself by eating nutritious food, staying hydrated, and taking time for self-care. These boundaries allow you to maintain a healthy work-life balance and ensure you are respected and valued professionally.
Working Hours and Environment
In most escort agency work establishments, you can set your working hours and environment according to your comfort and safety. Agencies offer a secure and comfortable environment, free from potential risks or threats.
As an independent escort, you decide your working hours based on availability and client demand. You can provide incall or outcall services depending on your preference and client needs. However, it is crucial to set realistic working hours and stick to them to avoid exhaustion or burnout.
How Will Your Relationships Work?
Maintaining relationships as an escort worker can be challenging, but it is crucial to communicate your needs and expectations with your partners to avoid any misunderstandings or unintentional boundary crossings. Being honest with your friends and partners about your profession helps prevent tension and misunderstandings in your relationships. Consider how your work may impact your relationships and decide whether you disclose your profession.
Staying Safe
Be firm and assertive when communicating your boundaries with clients. You have the right to say no to any scenarios where you feel uncomfortable, even after payment. Establish a safety plan in case a client violates your boundaries. A safety plan includes a way to contact someone for help, a safe place to go, and knowing how to defend yourself if necessary.
We advise that you stay informed about the laws and regulations related to escort work in your area. Doing so ensures you operate within legal and safe boundaries and know your rights.
