That is such a perfect approach! I love guys that do exactly as you describe! Those meet ups are always the most fun and result in ongoing meetings!
Looks like a NYC visit 😉🤤
Sounds familiar and has happened a couple of times to me as well! My reply after the 2nd or 3rd comment: “invite him over and I will leave and you can pay for dinner”
Lol! You are exactly right! You see that as a response your chances of a good outcome go to 50/50! That in mind, I’ve had some overtop fun! Just need to translate your messages to sift through the rubble!
I tend to think they are being kind and know they had a sane experience with me! “One in hand versus 2 in the bush” thing!
Of course it’s a transactional marketing tool! It’s also a kind opportunity to say “hi”!
I have only had one gent get upset because I was busy when he came to my area! He sent a terrible message and blocked me! Oh well!
Just my thoughts!
A lot of our dear friends will let it expire for a few days because at times they will actually get additional requests for services! Some clients have that “I can’t let this one get away thought and hire quickly”
