Need input from other escorts

[Guest HOTCUBANO8404]

Hi,

 

I am a new escort in the business and was wondering if I can have some people critique my ads that I have on a few sites to help me advertise better. Also, if anyone here can give me great tips on what made them successful, I would much appreciate that. Thanks. Take Care.

 

Danny.

 

 

If I broke some of the rules please forgive me. Just need some input, also clients are welcome to critique if they want to.

You'll get PLENTY of opinions around here! (Just remember that free advice is often worth what you paid for it.)

 

But you need to give links to the ads.

Welcome, Danny.

 

Post links to your ads, and I think you'll get more input that you might want, from both clients and escorts. Just be prepared to consider all of the opinions, but not regard any one of them as "the gospel." Also, remember that no one speaks for this entire community, each person only presents their own personal opinion, and the most vocal opinions expressed here are sometimes far from the consensus of all members.

 

Or to put it another way, opinions are like assholes; everyone's got one.

 

Welcome!

[Guest HOTCUBANO8404]

I would totally be interested if there was a professional escort ad writer or someone who could provide me some assistance with it or my photos. Thank you so much.

I'm assuming this is him.

I’m a genuine, sincere, wise, playful guy who is comfortable in his own skin and enjoys the company of others who share those traits, and have a gift of being able to have fun with most anybody. Love to give and receive affection and more. I can spend time with you on a lonely night to keep you company, go out on a dinner date with you or if you want something more erotic and invigorating that I can be too. Passionate, sensual and aim to please! I accept all major credit cards.

wow, don't think many of us would be able to find much to correct there!!....maybe a comma after "invigorating"?!!.....great pictures.....maybe a face close-up?....

Yes that is me, I attempted to post my links to others but not sure if it was deleted or something. Thank you again guys.

Here's my suggestion. 3rd pic in the ad is shot to far away. you need a closer face shot

Exactly. In all honesty—your ad isn't as good as it should, or could be. Here's some thoughts.

 

My initial reaction after looking at your pics and comparing them to others in the market is that 1) you have very nice assets, and what looks to be a very nice face, and 2) your pictures don't do those assets justice, and look rather haphazard, kind of blurry/low-res, and the color sucks.

 

My suggestion: take a mix of shots indoors and out, using as much natural light as possible. Wear something sporty/fun/colorful/modern, and something casual/classy. You look like you could be a model. Take some pics that reflect that. Clearly show your skin, your smile, your eyes and your face. Showing a bunch of nude/semi-nude shots doesn't fit in with the "fun-loving" guy you are trying to portray in your copy. Have a mix, and keep in mind that an almost-nude shot can be far more provocative than a nude one.

 

Your asset shots look like the typical webcam quality you seen on Manhunt. Ditch them all and start over. These need to be done from a variety of angles—maybe some that are close up and don't look like they were taken from someone lying on the floor. The best way to to do this is to take a look at other profiles and see which ones you have the ability to emulate. Sometimes it's hard to visualize what you look like from a different vantage point.

 

As far as your profile goes: it reads a little awkwardly. How about something like this? (keep in mind—it's hard to write a profile for someone else, only you can know what points you want to stress).

 

"Genuine, sincere and playful guy who loves to give and receive affection and more! I have the gift of being able to have fun with just about anyone. I'd really enjoy going out with you on a dinner date, or lying right beside you on a lonely night. But... if you want something more erotic, intimate or invigorating, I can definitely be that too. I'm passionate, sensual and aim to please! Call me today and we'll spend some quality time together. I'm accepting all major credit cards."

 

Many guys also like to know you're discreet, what you're into, blah blah blah. Just come up with something that sounds genuine and is a reflection of your personality.

 

Hope this helps.

In your ad you checked off all the working hours. Does this mean you are available at 4:00 a.m. or does it mean you are available for overnights? I always appreciate escorts and masseurs who specifically say their preferred hours. Such as "Available 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. every day. Available for overnights and other hours with advance notice". For me the 4 hour block rentboy ads give is sometimes misleading. Also listing what general area of town you live in or are staying in is helpful. Otherwise think the ad is great. Good luck.

[Guest HOTCUBANO8404]

Wow, that was very helpful. I think maybe I should get someone to snap some photos of me. All i have is a webcam.

[maxwellissmart]

Dude, you're far too good looking to use a webcam to take pics. You can buy a great camera for $100 nowadays.

[bigvalboy]

Hey Hotcuban, I am not an escort, but coming from a clients perspective, I would have to say that Maxwellissmart is spot on. Great suggestions and I think what he wrote does read better than your ad.

 

And I think that deej owes Max an apology. Free advice can be good advice!...sorry deej, but it's true.

[ErieBear]

One thing that strikes me is that you list yourself as a top, and yet you include 2 pics of your ass. That always strikes me as odd.

Or hire a pro. Good pics will pay for themselves in a matter of weeks. If you don't want to shell out those bucks, go onto craigslist and post an ad saying "escort looking for photographer". Any of your current pics will suffice to encourage some very good photographer to want to use you as a model. Just be sure to ask to see some samples of his work first, to make sure he can produce images that you like and isn't just some guy with a Polaroid. And then keep some of your current pics and throw in some of the new. Like max implied, variety is good.

 

Welcome to the forum, and keep asking questions as they come up. The group is eager to help.

[Guest HOTCUBANO8404]

Thank you. I ventured into this world alone and this website has been a valued wealth of knowledge. I just used blacklisted to check out a client and for sure enough the number that called me was blacklisted, and the poor thing used the same story with me that he did with another escort on Nov 29, 2011, its my birthday....blah blah blah....Time to head to the gym and I think I am going to post on craigslist to see what I can find.

My ad has an ass pic because (all together now) I'm a total top, but it doesn't need to go there. I like a guy who appreciates my endowment and I love being licked everywhere.

hmmmm... I never thought about that. Thanks for enlightening me. And for the record, both of you have very nice asses, and I wouldn't mind licking either one of them!

Fair enough...LOL

[Guest HOTCUBANO8404]

What about the guy in Canada/UK who wants to hire you to go to Nigeria for protection and is offering money up front. SCAM...lol

This also got my attention. There's one photo with you lying down on a bed, face down, which I think is fine. But, the one kneeling with your ass in the air just screams "come f*ck me."

 

I also agree with the comment about a face pic. If you can pull off an alluring smile, a sparkle in your eye, you'll reinforce the message that maxwellissmart has so eloquently articulated in the copy.
