Bravo Indy Companion

[delilah.sansregret]

This thread makes me so very happy! So much love to all my fellow Indy Companions. I have found so much love and support amongst my fellow members - everyone is always ready to support or lend advice. And of course, so much love to Miss Camille, dear Lorence and the lovely Amber - their effort makes everything run so well ^_^

 

[AmberRose]

Well, this thread and all the responses have seriously put a huge smile on my face!

I owe so much to Indycompanion, most especially to the lovely lovely Camille as well, and I truly feel like they're my work family now, I've grown so much with them.

When I first moved to this city, I knew no one or how the industry worked in this city, and when a gentleman I saw recommended I meet the Indycompanion ladies, I saw the website and thought "no way, these guys are way out of my league!" but he assured me they were all super nice and awesome, and that they were!

I wouldn't be where I am in my life presently if it weren't for this collective, and I'll be forever grateful for every opportunity it's given me!

Goodness, I'm going to cry now! :')

C'est beau mes Dames de vous lire et de vous entendre vous exprimer avec autant d'émotion et d'authenticité. Cela reflète bien la qualité de votre collectif. On aimerait bien vous lire plus souvent car vous avez une facon de vous exprimer qui est unique et tellement agréable.

 

[Simone Delisle]

Reading this thread really made my day ! I'm also so glad the collective exists. I can't express enough gratitude for all the hard work of my colleagues in keeping it running smoothly. I met so many proud and genuine companions since I joinded it, I suddenly felt I wasn't isolated anymore. Also, it's just so easy to meet nice people from the visibility it gives. Sincere appreciation to all of you who keep it alive, including you guys.

Peeps, my jaw just hit the floor.
I am flabbergasted. Who knew that the humble collective that Camille and I started barely a year ago would bloom in such a wonderful way?
Each one of our graceful flowers, each strong, independent person that works with us deserves all the praise we can give them. Cam, Amber and I have met such wonderful beings building our coop.

A word also deserves to be said about the people supporting us and those who become our lovers.
By choosing to see us, you validate our thought that these meetings are anything but cookie-cutter events - they are as unique as each person we meet, and as each one of us.

I feel blessed to be part of the Indy Collective.
I have met the most sensuous duo partners ever, as well as my favorite lovers in my 25 years on Earth.

You guys, it touches me so much my mascara is running. I am so happy

Longue vie à ce collectif.
Évidemment tes amies et toi, Lorence, faites du bon travail à constamment conserver la rigueur et la répétitivité des rencontres. C'Est ce qui maintient votre groupe ensemble. Bravo à toutes et merci pour les bons moments. !!!!!

En effet ce site s`est avéré une excellente fornule. Autant pour nous les clients pour qui les recherches se font en un clin d`oeil que pour nos courtisanes qui accès à des endroits extra pour faire leur incall.

Ce que j`aime le plus c`est la diversité des demoiselles présentes, y en a vraiment pour tout les goûts ou pour tout nos humeurs !!! Un gros merci à vous 2 d`avoir eu l`audace de créer ce collectif !!

For very practical reasons I am so glad to be a part of the Indy Companion collective. As workers we face so much isolation. This is due to stigma and the past and current criminalization. The Indy Companion collective helps ease this burden. There is also an increase in safety (emotionally and physically) because we have each other's back. We are not at all competitive. There is strength in our solidarity.

I am very grateful for Camille Harding having worked so hard to develop this initiative and the other participants who help sustain and nurture it. I also appreciate the diversity of the group and that we all get to operate our businesses as we see fit.

xoxo

I totally second that :smile: I'm very PROUD to be a member of this collective! And I believe the success behind our group is a reflection of Camille's leadership.

Yes absolutely a reflection of all the sweet asses!
but more so the nice personalities and the crème de la crème this group represent that came to be because of The entrepreneurship and hard work of Camille, Lorence and Amber, They made it possible, With out their efforts there would not be this wonderful group so well organized.

 

[Miss_Elizabeth]

I believe Camille started the group along with the help of Lorence. Then the lovely Amber joined the team :smile: Of course having a strong group of ladies always help to attain and maintain success!

A few years ago i had been approached by a few johns to start up a similar group. Several top-notch sps would have been recruited and hired to exclusively service the members of the co-op. My understanding is that they would have been very well renumerated, of course, for their exclusivety. New members of the group would have been allowed to join for a fee after a vetting process. But unfortunately, the set-up never saw life and plans were abandonned just before it was about to happen.

That doesn't sound like a similar group at all.

I second Amber on that one. That sounds like the opposite of what we do in Indy, except it hides under the name co-op. We are not HIRED by anyone, we are indies and sisters. We decide how many hours we work and we decide how much we charge. There is not exclusivity and absolutely no guys running our businesses. That's why it's working so well.

Rose you are absolutely right
It works and it works well
The main reason is it is a collective undertaking, the benefits belong to the consultant (ther indy) no men or any body else garbing the income of your hour and talent
This is why it is so steady, no indy come and go they all are in business for them with out any blood sucker

Keep it this way girls we are (your customer) all enjoying it, it is good service with the best of the best, safe and well organized. And what a choice you offer

No organization or agency can compete and offer the quality you girls reach.

Congratulation

I may not have explained myself clearly. What i meant to say by 'similar' was that the roles would have been reversed. The johns would have been running the co-op, and a selected number of sps would have been their clientele. The main difference would have been that the clientele would also be getting paid this time around. Part of the money being paid by the membership (johns) would have come from the membership fees paid by new members.

By the way, i agree that IC has a pretty good thing going and it's also a very good option for any sp wishing to go indy.

But isn't it based on the same business model first introduced by FKS?

La création d'Indycompanion est une mignonne anecdote, un moment dont Camille et Moi se remémorons toute notre vie et qui je crois, mérite le partage.
Il est environ midi, nous sommes toutes les deux en lingerie, fuck that, il ne viendra pas, nous nous installons confortablement, commandons un pad thai et un boeuf général tao, la bouffe arrive Camille s'exclame, let's go on créer notre Coop, un Ouraffair mais géré par des femmes, pour des femmes comme tu voulais, aller on le fait.
- Ah ouin, t'es sur, on fait ca la ?
- Ouais sur wix!
Alors on va sur wix, nous choisissons un design (toujours le même) et nous brainstormon. Indycompanion, the ethical way to meet.
La bouche pleine de pad thai et general tao, nous nous félicitons.

Donc, merci à ce no show, il a contribué a la construction, aux fondations de cette famille.
Merci a toutes les filles qui se sont jointes a nous, qui croyais à notre projet (Nous avons commencé étant 4 filles, combien sommes nous a présent ? hahahahaha)
Merci a toutes les filles, Lorence, Amber, Camille, Rose qui ont acceptés de mettre leur véritable noms sur les baux. Sans vous, indy ne serait pas ou il en est!
Merci a tous nos supporter, Indy existe par nous, pour vous, grâce à nous tous.
