Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
Uxiel summarises well.
The whole of society is set up so people can represent lives beyond their real means, with cars on credit being an obvious examle and its going to be no different for sessiion wrestlers. That said, its rare that i've been wowed by a session wrestlers car.. One did have a very nice (but older) Merc coupe, but thats about the only time. The 10 sessions in a day while touring would also be a rarity. In practical terms of managing logistics, alongside physical exertion, around 6 hour slots a day is the more realistic limit.. It would be clockwork org to slot 10 in a day, with all the clients accepting the given time windows, and then showing up on time. If a popular girl can get together a good set of revenue channels (in person sessions, only fans, own clips4sale, filming for other producers) then she can do reasonably well) but for many in Europe/UK this is often more a side job rather than full time profession... Relying on it as a full time profession generally wont yield enough cash to live for most, particular with the current difficulties running sessions. |

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
Six sessions in one day could increase the odds of testing positive for Covid.

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
Most of this thread can be resolved with a basic understanding of how free markets and supply & demand work.
That said, I started wondering recently what would happen if a well known girl started charging like $150/hr for a session? It seems to me like they would have guys lining up 24/7 no? I bet a well known girl could make $150/hr, with no overhead for 6 hours+ a day if she wanted to. I wonder if she would come out ahead in the long run that way? I'm sure there could be other complicating factors though, and it might not make as much sense for travel. |

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
I get 2.500 Euro at my work in a month. That is ~ 115 Euro per working-day on ~ 22 working-days per months.
Maybe now you understand why I am so fuming meanwhile why the session-ladies show Zero respect to me who paid ~ 70.000 Euro for wrestling in my 16 years in this scene. Many of the session-ladies and of course all the studio-owner earned more than 1,000 Euro each from me. |

If they are traveling they deserve more. But if they are wrestling in their own city without the costs of travel,hotel , and time lost due to travel, then their price for a 1 hour session should be less and 150 dollars seems fair to me. Its all about fairness. And its fair to say that the customer should have a say in the matter. Quote:

As a construction worker I put my body through hard work and exhaustion, and my body takes a beating after a 8 hour shift. But I choose to work a 10 to 12 hour shift often because of the MONEY. After doing it for a long time I have gotten used to it. Same is said for the session wrestler who writes on her twitter that she is BOOKED SOLID when she comes to a new town. They arrive lets say on a Tuesday, Tuesday evening they start the sessions. Wednesday they have sessions (some as early as 9am) until sometimes 2 am. Then Thursday they have another full day of sessions. Friday they wake up burned out and they move onto the next city. What people don't see is that I want them to make money. But not at a price that is not attainable to your average person. I'm sorry but the rate of anything over $300 a session is unreasonable. And anything over $200 when not traveling is also unreasonable. Added after 9 minutes: Quote:
As a custom video buyer and a sponsor of female wrestler for over 30 years I feel that I am now in the same boat as you guys. And I have a right to be a upset customer. BUT I am still a CUSTOMER. The money hungry culture that is in the session world has dripped down onto the custom video culture. The sessions have gone up. The customs have gone up in price. And since we are disposable, They can make me a crappy custom and not worry about if I am unsatisfied with it or not because there will be another guy around the corner willing to take my place at giving them money. All I ask if fairness. I ask that You, me, and everyone else get a good product at a fair price so that everyone is happy. Until that happens, I am going to continue getting non wrestling companies to make my wrestling videos. But my question to the wrestlers is ''why would you want the non wrestling producers to take your money?'' Last edited by gutpunch; 03-Oct-20 at 22:09. |

Similarly for sessions, if someone tried lowering them to $100-$200 each, I'm tempted to think that a girl could do as many a day as she wanted, and possibly make more money than she would have charging $400, but only doing a couple sessions a week. At the very minimum, it would be interesting for someone to try it out for a month by running a "half-off special" and seeing what kind of increase in business they get. |

Re: Session rates are getting out of hand
Of course my assumption here is that girls aren't doing multiple sessions a day at $400 each. If a girl is able to fill her schedule charging $400 per session, then that's definitely the way for her to go. I had been thinking that $400 sessions were only an occasional thing, so that's something that would have to be clarified before deciding to potentially lower prices.
