If you're considering a career in escorting, you might be weighing the option of working independently. At first, going solo can sound ideal—no one to answer to, full control over your schedule, and keeping 100% of what you earn. But the reality of independent escorting in Australia comes with its own set of challenges that aren’t always obvious at the start.
Whether you're new to the industry or simply exploring your next step, understanding what solo escorting really involves can help you make an informed, confident decision. This guide applies whether you're in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, or anywhere else across Australia—because the challenges of solo escorting tend to look the same, no matter your location.

The Reality of Working Solo
Your safety is entirely your responsibility: When you work alone, you’re the one screening clients, choosing meeting spots, and setting boundaries. There's no agency checking in or vetting people ahead of time. Even if you're careful, the emotional and physical load of managing safety on your own can build quickly.
There’s no one to back you up: Escorting is legal in many parts of Australia, including Queensland and New South Wales—but legality doesn’t always mean smooth sailing. From last-minute cancellations to payment issues or crossed boundaries, you're the only one managing these situations when working solo.
Scammers and time-wasters are common: Independent escorts often deal with endless chats that never lead to bookings—people who ghost, lowball, or waste hours without booking. It’s exhausting and can chip away at your time, energy, and income.
You wear every hat in your business: From replying to inquiries and chasing bookings to building your online presence and writing ads—you’re not just the service provider; you’re also the marketer, manager, and admin team. Without experience, it can quickly become overwhelming.

If You Choose to Work Independently, Stay Smart
Always screen clients thoroughly: Ask for ID, cross-check names and numbers, and never ignore your instincts. If something feels off—it probably is.
Use separate, encrypted communication tools: Apps like Signal or a secondary phone number via Google Voice can help you stay anonymous and set boundaries from the start.
Have a check-in system in place: Let a trusted friend know when and where you’re working. It’s a simple way to stay safe without compromising your independence.
Avoid sharing personal details too soon: Meet new clients in neutral locations and avoid giving out your home address until you've established trust.
Know your legal rights: Escorting is legal in several states, but laws differ across Australia. Be sure you understand the rules in your area so you’re protected.
There are also growing communities and peer networks online—places where you can ask questions, find support, and connect with others navigating similar choices.
