Good Tips and Words to the Wise – Touring Buddy
1. Booze
Don’t booze it up in your rooms – Don’t smoke it up in your rooms or cars. Don’t fall asleep half drunk and Pilled up if you have a double partner waiting to show.
2. Touring Buddy’s Business
Always remember a touring buddy is simply there to help in the driving, the expenses along the way. They aren’t there to help you market yourself – or help you make money. They are there to do their own thing. They aren’t there to hold and coddle you if you aren’t getting any business. They don’t want to eat meals with you ,or talk to you between their calls. They are busy. Leave a touring buddy to her work.
3. Money and Touring Buddy
One touring girl may always make more money than than her buddy in one city. That’s the way the chips fall. Because one city is good to her – doesn’t mean its going to be good for you . Vice Versa .Spend the off time marketing yourself for the next city. See what the other touring girls are doing to get business. Ask your gentlemen friends to write mini reviews of you . ( not 1 week later boys, THAT DAY ” )
4. No Pyring
Don’t pry into a providers personal life. It’s not YOUR business. Nor is your life, her business. Be careful what you tell people. Because your touring buddy can pay for gas or a hotel room, does not make her your best friend for life. Never tell ANYONE your personal life.
5. Do your Marketing
Make sure you do your marketing strategically – before you are on the road- and when you get to your destination.
6. Compatibility
Make sure you and your touring buddy are as compatible as possible . Kinda like a sordid love affair.
7. Seperate Rooms
Make sure you have your OWN Rooms, even on different floors. There is NO reason for providers to be sharing rooms. Too much traffic to ONE room / floor , just isn’t a good thing.
8. Mix it Up
When touring in one city – make sure to mix up your hotels a bit if you are in one area more than a week or two .
9. Don’t Flaunt It
Do not count your money in front of your touring buddy. If you made 10 cents more than her, she may eat you for dinner.
10. Keep It Private
Do not tell your touring buddy how much money you made. It isn’t her business. Tell her to pipe it down.
11. Smoking Sense
If you smoke cigarettes and your touring partner doesn’t , Please be kind enough to put that shit out.
12. Don’t Get Hostile
Because your touring buddy didn’t work out, don’t go on a rampage on how she stole all your shit. She’s the one that made all the gooAd money to buy her own crap. She doesn’t need your old outdated crap.
13. Room Booking 1
If you book your hotel for you and your touring buddy, Please make sure TO Research THAT AREA, whats going on with events at that hotel and so on. Please don’t make the mistake of trying to stay at the same hotel THE POPE is staying at. ( HONEST, that happened to a girl in NYC , peed myself ! rofl)
14. Room Booking 2
If you book your hotel for you and your touring buddy, Please don’t make the mistake of trying to stay at the same hotel The NFL Superbown team is staying at andthen wonder why there are armed guards and security all over the joint. ( HONEST, that happened too !! peed myself again ! rofl)
15. Didn’t Happen to Me
No, this stuff didn’t happen to Ciara. I tour alone, Cause I don’t want Number 1 through 14 happening to me ..Are you haha’ing ? I am
