By the way to those of you who don't know James: I have known him for some years going back to before he was ever in the business, and then when he was a booker at Good Girls, to now rising to the top with Euphoria. Anyone who thinks James got to the top through other than hard work and persistence doesn't know him. James, while a booker at Good Girls, in October 2014, put together a private party for me and 3 friends on less than 24 hours notice (4 guys, 4 escorts, we let the girls pick the guys deal in a private room at a hotel). 2 of those girls we had requested were not even working regular shifts at Good Girls. Granted it was a good money gig for them, but James had all 4 of those girls at the designated place at the designated time. James and I texted each other and put the whole thing together. My 3 friends were late coming down to the hotel lounge that night, so I was the only 1 there to meet the 4 girls (my friends were obsessed with long showers and excessive ball washing I guess, they arrived 10 minutes late). I entertained the girls solo until my friends arrived.
For the rest of the weekend trip I relentlessly teased my friends that they were beaten to the party by young escorts in their early 20s. The whole 6 hour drive up to Montreal from the USA, they had bugged and harassed me about whether James would have the girls to our hotel on time. I rode herd on those 3 the entire way back to the USA. "Your sorry ass unreliable asses were too busy washing your balls and admiring your 42 year old asses in the mirror and got beaten to the appointment by James and his girls." LOL. I don't think even James knows this. Anyway he was relentless in putting that party together and at that time he wasn't even fronting the agency. He was a booker and a driver.
One of my friends coincidentally ran into James that weekend making a driver stop at Hotel W. "That dude is working his ass off" was his comment to me. He had seen James in his Good Girls driver car and greeted him. Ironically James had one of the girls who was at our party with him and my friend recognized both. He had previously met James at a GG party.
I do think James had a great opportunity to learn under Mike at Good Girls/Girls4u. Mike is a guy who has a lot of ideas in his head and I think he is owed an "assist" on the goal, if the goal that was scored was James winning agency operation of the year. James grew under Mike to learn the business and to become the independent owner he now is.
