"James, who are these Elite Clients you speak of? Can I be one?"
This is going to be a bit of a confusing one, and that's mostly my fault because I was pretty bad with naming conventions. But I'll give you a bit of an idea of what I mean, while also re-establishing the titles.
Back then I used to have a special, closed group of clientele that I called "elite clients", and it was confusing because it mixed the name with the higher profile clients that were by definition considered society's "elites", which just made things more messy.
The new naming convention is: "Preferred Client".
So a preferred client is basically this: A client with a long-running working relationship with me, who's spend crosses a specific threshold where I incorporate them into my monthly new moon, and full moon rituals, while also offering them special pricing for my work, as well as offering other types of work that I don't offer to the general public.
That's what it is in a nutshell.
When you reach the status of what I call a "Preferred Client", I have your name in a special book of all the names of the other preferred clients, and I do a full-scale ritual for the new moon, and full moon dedicated to all of them.
New moon rituals are focused on making sure my clients get good opportunities, and good beginnings on projects in any endeavour in their life, and Full moon rituals are focused in magnifying the good that is already present in their lives. The full moon rituals are also there to boose and magnify the strength of any existing spellwork they have with me as well. It's done every month. Once you become a part of that group, you get some extra perks on top of the free rituals.
I will give you special pricing for your rituals and future workings, I even prioritize your spellwork a bit more. Meaning; you get first dibs for castings on special days, urgent castings, and getting things casted on their planetary days.
On top of that, you also get access to a treasure trove of other spells, as well as any experimental work that I don't offer to the public. This is the harder stuff, the stuff that most people aren't going to understand if they don't have much of an understanding about magickal practice. Practicing Magicians/Occultists will benefit a lot from these.
You can technically "skip the line" by purchasing a preferred client membership if you don't want to go through the whole string of crossing any sort of threshold of spending. That can be bought, and you'll essentially get all the perks of the preferred client for 2 years.
Now.. on the topic of what is an "Elite Client" (Ugh I've kinda grown to hate this word as time went on. It's just not fitting anymore) These are clientele who I service that are a little more.. up there in society. Wealthier families, public figures, career executives, large-scale business owners, "celebrities", etc.
These are clients that need to be handled with a bit of care. And no, not because they have more money or fame, but because these people really can't have their names out there exposed to the public, or have themselves in the rumor mill for purchasing supernatural services. These are folks who need privacy, and need a strict amount of confidentiality when inquiring for services.
Their benefits are more catered to the size of their situations and cases. Sometimes the asks they give me are a whole lot larger than what I'll typically get, so the listings don't do justice. They want something harder hitting, and more fitted for their bigger undertakings. This isn't a class divide in the slightest. It's more like me accepting the fact that not all spellwork/spirit work is a one-size-fits-all. It's always on a case-by-case basis.
These Higher-profile clientele come to me seeking confidentiality. And before any work is done; I typically get offered NDA's (Non-disclosure agreements) to ensure that things are kept as secure as possible. This is the dividing line. Most people don't need NDA's signed. I typically get reached out to by their assistants, or some sort of gatekeeper before any actual interaction with the person is done. That's just how it goes in their world. I speak about them without name-dropping (Duh. NDA's) to signal to others who see my page that, yes, I can work with them and I'll comply with confidentiality. My lists are physical only, and information isn't digitally stored. (If anything digital is stored; I have it encrypted). I cover my bases to make sure there's nothing leaked in terms of information. I speak about them also because it's a form of social proof to show others who aren't sure about working with me (yet) that, yes; I have people from all walks of life that work with me, and that they're in good hands.
Hope this answers your questions!
