Do you think other providers are on this site?  I'm surprised there aren't more people clarifying situations after reading comments posted about them.  Simon, how did you find out about this site and do you tell other providers?

 

Also, someone once asked if there is a similar site where providers rate customers.  Is that a thing?

I know of many providers on the site. Only a small fraction post or participate with any regularity. Of those, some come and go, deciding to delete their account or just not log in for months. The majority of us are either unaware of the site (most) or choose not to engage with it. Their loss, but at the same time admittedly it takes a lot of time and energy to make our presence here worthwhile.

From time to time I alert providers I know of comments and they can choose to ignore or engage with the content. Some guys are hopeless when it comes to tact and understanding how to leverage the platform. Some of the long time active provider members here really get the value of investing our time in the platform and stick with an engagement strategy for the long haul.

I first discovered the forums when I was searching myself testing for other marketing purposes and came across some chatter about me when I was working in Dallas. Since then, I came to realize this is actually a really good business development tool. Many CoM clients have seen me in part due to my engagement here…and they love my work!

Several topics have come up in the forums re: sites to review clients. My short answer is no, it’s not a thing, at least not as extensive and widespread as it is for reviews of masseurs and providers. It would not behoove us providers to share about it if we did have such a thing. 

For others who come across this blurb, I realize it may be kind of weird to post here when the provider can see it and even respond. Positive comments are welcome, but I invite even negative comments about me because it challenges me to improve my business and how I deliver service. It keeps me honest and to own my mistakes and apologize for them and make things right. It also gives me a chance to clarify anything stated that was factually incorrect.

Opinions are a different matter. When someone doesn’t like my style, my look, how I handled something, or have some other opinion, oh well. It’s not personal, and I can take that criticism with maturity and respect. I won’t try to get it taken down or anything like that. A good provider can stand on his overall reputation and take a few hits here and there without suffering very much loss. I can’t please everyone 100% of the time, and I have no illusions of doing so, but I know I do a great job and my clients are happy with me.

Some of my Texas clients still visit me in California, and many of the others text me asking when I will be coming back. I know I’m not perfect, but with signs of loyalty like this, I know I’m doing something right.

Cheers to finding me. May the best providers find their place here too and make the most of it.

@Simon Suraciyou are a rare gem!  I have yet to meet you but can express that based upon your sensible comments and attitude.  I hope to meet you when you decide to come to the Big Apple.  Cheers!

This database of providers would make more sense if it included an indication of a home base for the masseur. Otherwise you're just window shopping.

I hope to update and add info when the new review site goes live. I anticipate more fields to fill in, including location. My home base is San Diego.

He is a rare gem.  I have been a client of Simon's more than once in Texas.  I hope he comes back to visit in the near future because we do miss him here.
