Our approach

Industry veterans, on your side.

We are a group of industry veterans who provide free consultation on places to work. As a sex worker collective, we assist sex workers by providing updated information on which brothels, escorts, massages, strip clubs, and discreet private arrangements are currently busy, as well as coaching/guidance and more. There are over 400 brothels and escort and massage operators in Sydney, most promise big money but only a very small percentage are honest and most places are actually currently quiet. Let us help you find the busiest, most time-effective places to work at depending on your needs and what genuinely suits you.

Transforming real-time data

Which ones are truly busy right now?

There are 400 brothels and escort operators in Sydney. A lot of them advertise big money for girls, promising a busy place and the highest rates. But only very few are truthful. Which ones are truly busy right now? Which ones are actually quiet? We as a sex worker collective and industry veterans have this data through our networks and industry friends, and we are happy to share these findings with you at no cost.

A modern approach

A system designed around each person.

Most of us when we started working in the sex industry, were clueless and blind on which places to work at, and had to experiment trying multiple different places one by one, a very tedious and often time-wasting process not to mention some places are terribly run and some are quite dodgy. We do not wish other people to go through the same process. This is now the information age, and it’s our wish that new people starting can get personalized suggestions through us on which places in Sydney would be the best match. Rather than do things the typical way, we’ve created a system designed around each person’s needs.

Tailored suggestions

Providing you with tailored suggestions

Everyone is unique, and every brothel has a different customer base with statistically different preferences. Certain nationalities may be busy in one shop, but not busy in another shop. Certain body types are preferable in one shop, but not in another. Age, height, weight, cup size, nationality, background, all play a factor and Sydney having so many brothels may be overwhelming for someone new to try and research and choose which place to work with. We take all these factors and suggest you the places you have the highest chance to be the busiest.

An unhurried conversation, held in confidence.

In-person and remote options

In-person and remote options

We hold one on one meetings in quiet coffee shops or pubs in the city area. Can’t make it into the city? No worries – phone calls would suffice to start with, although we can’t disclose certain contents until we can reliably meet you in person and confirm you are over 18 years old.

Get the right workplace recommendation that is tailored to your needs and your strengths.

A

New to the industry?

New to this? It’s overwhelming, and most places oversell. The honest truth: a few are genuinely busy and well run, many are quiet or badly managed — and the gap between them in a single week is enormous. We’ll tell you straight which are which, where to start, and what to learn, so your first shifts aren’t wasted. Free, and judgment-free.

B

Already in industry, looking to move shops?

A lot of shops pretend to be the busiest, advertise online to be the busiest, but 90% lie. Which ones are really busy, which ones are really quiet? Is the place you are currently working busy enough compared to other shops? Can you be busier elsewhere? Can you make much more money working in other shops? Which shops? We offer free consultation on these for girls looking to move to a busier place.

C

Already busy, yet can’t seem to save money?

Another common issue we see working in this industry is, as one start to learn that money is very easy to make in this industry, and start to earn very high money, a problem arises where the spending also goes up exponentially due to bad money management. Some girls have worked for 3 years, and when counted, made more than $1 million, yet not save most of it and have little to show for at the end due to overspending. We offer free consultations on how to set and track monetary goals and the importance of savings and investing.

D

Don’t want to move shops, but want to be busier?

Our team has experience in both sex work and brothel management. Our experience combined span decades of industry expertise - and we can provide consultation on how to make yourself busier, how to improve services, how to improve looks, how to improve talking skills and charm, ensuring you get picked more on intros and also get more regular customers coming back to book you.

“Blackrose helped me find two busy places where I have been averaging $1,800 per day. In my previous places, I averaged $800 a day. I would not have known about these places had I not consulted with Jesse. He more than doubled my earnings with just a 30 minute talk and a simple suggestion of a few places to try.”
— Miss A, Blackrose client
Our rates

Fair, transparent, no conflict of interest.

For sex workers

Free of charge. We don’t take money from you nor your earnings, we make money from the brothel/escort operator’s cut on each job. You get the same pay in the shops regardless of you come through us or not, it does not affect your earnings at all.

For brothel operators

We charge a very small fixed fee per job on our referrals. Ensuring we only refer the right individual to the right place, where they can be the busiest and make the most money. We charge the same amount per job at every shop, to ensure fairness in our recommendation and no conflict of interest.

For other recruitment agents

We can on-board your clients to us and let them gain exposure to our networks for a share in commissions. We already have deals with almost all of the top 10 busiest shops in Sydney, and countless others.

Previous shops · real job sheets

Real numbers, not promises.

Our aims are high: 7 to 10 jobs a day, 3 to 5 even when it is quiet, at least $1,000 a day for everyone, and $2,000 for top performers. So you can judge them yourself, here is one real fortnight from previous shops we managed: 315 shifts worked by 72 women.

How many shifts reached each amount

Recorded pay is what the job sheets show. Tips are not recorded, so the with-tips figures are our estimate: tips usually make up about a fifth of what a woman takes home.

Share of shifts reaching each daily amountRecorded pay: 70% of shifts reached $400, 38% reached $800, 16% reached $1,200 and 4% reached $1,600. With tips, roughly $500, $1,000, $1,500 and $2,000.$400+ recordedabout $500+ with tips221 of 315 shifts70%$800+ recordedabout $1,000+ with tips119 of 315 shifts38%$1,200+ recordedabout $1,500+ with tips50 of 315 shifts16%$1,600+ recordedabout $2,000+ with tips13 of 315 shifts4%
Our estimate

About 1 in 5 reach $2,000 with tips

Top shifts usually record around $1,500, and a $300 to $700 tip takes them to about $2,000. In this fortnight, 18% of all the women (and 25% of those who worked five or more days) had at least one shift that recorded $1,500 or more.

The ceiling, not the typical week

Best weeks

The best seven days in this sample recorded $10,230, about $12,800 with tips. The best single week we have seen anyone earn was $17,600. Plan your life around the typical numbers above, not the best ones.

Source: job sheets from previous shops we managed, 1–15 October 2018: 315 shifts by 72 women. Recorded pay excludes tips; tip figures are our estimate. Shifts where a woman saw no clients were not recorded, so the true typical figures were a little lower. Prices have changed since 2018. Our aims are aims, not promises, and nobody is ever pressured to see more clients to reach a number.
