    I used a young fellow from Vermont for several years to do Thai massage. He would always message me to let me know when he'd be in NYC next.
    I enjoyed his skills (and the extras) so I can't imagine being "annoyed" at him reaching out to book an appointment.

    Yes, but the providers who have done that have gotten the no when I've said it. Also, I am very clear. I state that at the time I'm not planning on another session, but maybe in the future, and that I will reach out to him when I'm ready. The provider has been respectful of my wishes, and I have reached out at a later time. Have you been that clear?
    I had one who called me after, but he was interested in becoming my friend. I chatted a little with him, but also stated that there are certain times/days when I am not available for talking. We talked a few times after and the he just faded.
    Today there are ways of dealing with pushy providers if they become pushy, but the most important thing is clarity and being specific about your boundaries.

    When I was first starting, I messaged every appointment thanking them and asking for reviews because it’s imperative to get reviews. 
     
    i still reach out when I’m traveling, but after two trips I don’t hear back from them, I move to my “do not text” list until I hear from them.

    Being an escort and masseur is often times an exercise in judgement as it is a willingness to make money. 
    I’ve been that guy and taken appointments when I was sick (don’t ask me about my most embarrassing night as an escort), but i, thankfully, didn’t have a post written about me in anonymous online forum.
    i would have cancelled, and any adverse reaction from the provider would have said all you needed to know about his character.

    My favorite is the Hampton Inn Buckhead, not to be confused with the Hampton Inn & Suites Buckhead, literally next door. 
    (one is 3312 Piedmont, the other 3398 Piedmont). 
    Anyway, some people do lie. But some people are generally not familiar with the area - people from suburbs or other cities, coming and not realizing you’ll have to park, pay, and walk to get to me. I do live in the middle of the city  
    if they’re not from atlanta, I just expect the appt will start a little bit late.

    I'd bring it up when you are discussing specifics on what you like to get into. If they are open to providing oral that's the time to mention that you are a heavy precummer.

    Hi I haven’t been posting for awhile as for me if you are viewing me over 10 times and I reach out to you and no reply back I’m definitely blocking you because obviously that person is just rubbing one out to pictures, but that’s just me

    For some providers, there is an understanding that it is not OK to reach out to a client without being contacted first. This might be old-school, as there is lots of discussion about providers reaching out after having been viewed on RM, or contacting clients proactively. But for many like myself, it's considered an invasion of privacy to make unsolicited contact.
    My exceptions are like as @ICTJOCK mentions, someone has checked out my profile a whole bunch of times so I figure something must have got their interest. Or if their profile invites providers to contact them I'll reach out. Or if traveling I'll let former clients know I'll be visiting. But otherwise I try to be discreet and wait for the client to approach.
    If you're wanting providers to contact you if they are interested, put something in your profile that invites it. You could even describe a bit of what you're looking for, and invite those who fit the bill to get in touch.

    In RM settings, privacy settings. And yes @Km411 don't overthink this.

    I find it weird when I get those messages from providers asking if I am interested in scheduling an appointment.
    Obviously I'm not.
    I looked at the profile and didn't message him.
    Pretty clear to me that he was a "pass".

    I'm thinking in moving to San Diego and need to know. Here in NYC the market is oversaturated (way too compititive for newbies like me).

    assuming you’re talking about masseurfinder, and the answer is actually yes.
     
    They grade your ad (mostly by hand) on 4 factors: photos, if you’re using the features, if you’re ad text is updated regularly, and the quality of your text. Each factor also has factors within it.
     
    I attached a screenshot of part of the dashboard. Some makes sense (update your ad text regularly for seo). Some do not (add a day of the week discount because people love stuff that’s offered for less than it’s worth).
    but thanks for asking the question!

    Also, MasseurFinder is among the most expensive ad platforms around. The only way to be in one of the top slots is to pay an outrageous sum every month. You can follow all the rules and be the most up-to-date, etc and still fall in the middle of the pack (at best). I pay $105/mo for bronze based on rates a few years ago, but they keep jacking everything up. It’s crazy:
