    Deciding which services you offer: Why enjoyment matters?

    In any business, selecting your services is a crucial decision. But in sex work, it’s even more critical.

    The key aim is to choose safe, in-demand, legal, and enjoyable services for you. It’ll likely show if you don’t enjoy what you do, which won’t leave clients returning for more. You’ll also be more likely to burn out, which isn’t great for your mental or physical health, nor your business.

    Kink always tends to have demand, especially if the niche area is more extreme. But kink isn’t for everyone. If you don’t enjoy it and are considering offering it to maintain a stream of income, you might want to think twice. Offering uncomfortable services can quickly hinder your career progress and earnings, so you might be better off specialising in kink escort services that excite you.

    Are you selecting your services? Read our complete guide to sex worker service selection here.

    What does kink include?

    Kink is a broad term that encompasses a range of sexual preferences, acts, and fantasies.

    Typically, when sex workers offer kinky services, they narrow their offerings into subcategories. This clarifies their offerings and allows clients with niche interests to find them more easily.

    Kink escort services include BDSM, power play, worship, leather fetishism, foot play, rough sex, breathplay, roleplay, and more. The list is endless. If the practice is unconventional, it’s likely part of kink.

    So, before you slap “kink” on your website or profile, take a moment and consider which parts of kink you’re drawn to. Maybe you really enjoy providing foot jobs. Or perhaps you’re handy with a paddle. Whatever makes you feel good should be on your list.

    How to know if you should include kink escort services

    If you’re on this page, there’s a good chance you want to add kink to your service list. However, we have some bad news – no one but you can decide whether delving into kink is right for you.

    Yes, we know. It’s a tough decision. But some soul searching is the best way to get an answer. Are you comfortable marketing yourself as a kinkster? Are you ready to deal with potential dry spells when there’s a lack of kinky clients? Could your mental health withstand daily kink escort services? These are all questions to ask yourself.

    Some additional signs you’d excel in the kink world include:

    • You already practise kinky sex
    • You’re active in your local kink scene
    • You genuinely enjoy kink
    • You don’t mind the extra stigma associated with kink
    • You’ve been considering kinky services for a while

    If you’re genuinely at an impasse and don’t know what to do, you might want to talk to some kinky providers. Discussing your thoughts with established professionals will give you some clarity on the situation. You might even get a few tips and tricks for getting started. But remember, always be polite and don’t demand information. If kinky professionals don’t reply, don’t take it to heart. They might be busy or simply unable to offer free advice – and that’s okay.

    What experience should you have

    If you’re new to the industry, having little experience is okay. However, you should have at least some personal experience with kink. This could be from your own sexual experiences, from attending sex parties, or from participating in educational workshops.

    You must know relevant safety details. This includes aftercare, boundaries, and any other niche-specific information to keep you and your clients safe. Learn about kink safety online or take part in sex-positive workshops.

    You wouldn’t skydive without a safety demonstration, so don’t expect potential clients to book unsafe services.

    How to market yourself as a kinky escort

    If you’ve decided to embrace the kink life, your next step is to start marketing yourself as a kink professional. Don’t worry if you’re feeling overwhelmed. Perfecting your marketing is much easier than you’d expect.

    Firstly, start by researching other kinky sex workers. Look at their social media and websites. Are there any similarities between them? If so, make sure you add these to your profile, as it’ll signify you’re also working in the same field.

    You should also consider different marketing channels. Are there some platforms that have more kinky providers or even kink subcategories? Make your presence known on these sites, as they likely see higher client traffic.

    Next, start prepping your imagery. What will you call yourself? Many kinksters like to add Mistress or Dom to their name to show their kinky prowess. Kink-based profiles also feature a lot of leather, latex, or Shibari – all signifiers of kinky sex. Take some high-quality photos, and if you have kink gear or underwear, make sure this is on show. Remember, you want to entice your audience.

    Don’t forget to connect with other sex workers online. Building a network of like-minded professionals can increase your exposure and it allows you to share tips and tricks with other industry experts.

    Showing the world your kinky side is a big step. Use our marketing yourself as a sex worker guide to navigate the process with ease.

    The takeaway

    Whether you’re establishing yourself for the first time or reinventing your image, adding kink to your roster can help you attract new clients and enter a new niche. However, don’t rush into it. It’s not for everyone – and that’s okay! Before jumping in, take your time to truly decide whether kink is for you.
