Getting your name back out there?

[zach_wilson]

So recently I took a bit of hiatus for about an year and wasn't seeing any new people but had left my ads up and responded that if I was able to find the time I would love to meet with them. The reason for my hiatus was that I was traveling with one person that had asked that we go a bit more exclusive. Now we have decided to part ways and I am trying to figure out how to market myself again as its been a year since my last review here on daddys. As some of you know I attended the luncheon in a sense to announce my arrival back into what may have been the best decision I could have made. My current idea on getting back in, as in the past I have sent out sorta little email updates to anyone on my list of people whom have seen me or shown interest. Mind you I do this in a discreet manner however is there any other way that you all here on the forum would suggest I announce my arrival and availability? I have since updated my ads with new photos and travel ads, or is what I'm doing all that really can be done marketing wise? Advice and comments can always also be pm'd or just commented on here. Of course I love and appreciate any help and advice:) xo look forward to it all.

why are u teasing us with posting that smooth bubble ass yet saying your a top

I feel like if your going to do that advertise yourself as versatile

 

if not take the photo off, as you would probably get more clients being an exclusive top or exclusive bottom

that ass pic doesn't scream just a top to me

[jackjackjack]

I'm sorry but who are you? Would you post a link please? We need more info to attach to that very cute face. And I really want to see that bubble ass.

Versatile would be nice....

You are doing it already, Zach. Post on the forum. Speak your mind but keep it classy, sweet and don't take sides on controversial issues. Gain a couple of forum members who always sing your praises and will come in swinging the minute someone in this forum says something remotely critical about you. Work on word of mouth - have your clients extol your best qualities. Don't let a year lapse without a review...it is the kiss of death, no one will believe that you are too busy with celebrities. Ask a good client to submit a positive yet truthful review. Act thoughtfully about your brand. Do not disclose too much personal stuff to anyone you don't know well. Refrain from skirmishes on any social media.

 

After you read all of the above forget what I said and just focus on being the best version of your authentic self. You already arrived! Welcome!

 

PS- maybe we should plan a party at a popular gay hangout and call it, Zach - The Return?

Lose the filter on your pic. It looks over done. Theres a time and place for filters and or photoshop and face pics is not the place for it.

 

Hugs,

Greg

Welcome (back) and I'd say your note above is a great start.

 

Everything that @Truereview said is great advice.

Keep your name out there via the Forum, always being mindful of your brand, and meet as many folks with whom you can network as possible - both escorts and clients.

When someone asks on 411 "I'd like to meet Zach - anyone have any experience?" you'd like the collective answer to be "No but he seems to have a professional demeanor and is mindful of the things that are important to his clients".

 

It doesn't sound as if you plan to travel much but consider that having a minor presence in the major cities helps allot with word-of-mouth references - the people who will 'sing your praises' as TR says. When I travel to a given city I generally know a forum member who lives there and will PM him and ask his thoughts about someone I am considering contacting. He may not have met the escort personally but, if the escort has a reasonably high profile, the other client will likely have some awareness of him.

 

I'd be careful to keep your pictures current and demeanor professional. In your twink market segment two of the worst things someone can say about you are "He's allot older than his pictures depict" and "He's a flake".

 

Maybe most important would be to simply enjoy what you do. It's a very hard job to do well and can be a real grind if you're not having fun. People can tell if you would rather be anywhere other than with them and that's the worst kind of marketing.

I have been escorting since 2010(I was 18) but had to take a hiatus sadly. I enjoy all about this profession, I love meeting new people and making people happy, and always love a good travel trip with everyone. I always appreciate all the advice, especially after a year of not necessarily being in the loop per say its very much warranted. I appreciate the compliment dominking, I honestly post a butt pic so that one could see everything..I know some clients want a top with a bubble butt.. jackjackjack the link for my profile would be rent men.com/zachwilson seaboy4hire, I actually don't have a filter on my pics as I understand that clients would prefer an unaltered photo so they are getting to see as closely what resembles the real you..having heard stores of how they had someone show up that wasn't like their photos I wouldn't want that said of me..I try to give a true and real experience. Again I appreciate all the advice and look forward to any more that can't be given and will certainly take every ounce into considerations while getting back into the swing of things:)

[jackjackjack]

Thanks Zach. You are a cutie. And do leave that ass pic in...looks good enough to eat.

So many ways

 

1) Bus-Bench Advertising

 

2) Wear your tightest slut shorts and crop-top and hand out condoms with your Ph# on them on pay day at Military Bases/Truck Stops and Lumber camps

 

3) Holdup an adultbookstore and steal only condoms and lube and hot boys

[zach_wilson]

haha omgosh I think I just died laughing! To hilarious!

Great attitude and terrific responses !

 

When you solidify your plans come visit us in Atlanta.

Hey Zach! Hope you're doing well. Just one thing, I think it was a mistake to leave your ad up when you weren't actively seeing clients. Your response that you "would meet if you were able to find the time" would be understandable to those of us who happen to know you, but for new clients it feels like a "kiss-off". Water under the bridge now, but if your now more active, I would make some sort of splash to let people know. Good Luck!

[zach_wilson]

thanks countryboy

This is fucking brilliant.

[LADoug1]

I've never seen "ask me" under orientation. What exactly does that mean?

[mike carey]

Zach, hope your west coast tour and potential relocation works out!

[curiousnomore]

I wish I'd seen this sooner. Message me.

When you first started out you were a top, then changed to versatile as it opened up more business to bottom as well. Now you came back saying you body wouldn't let you bpttom after two years?? Is anyone else confused as to just what you will do? I would have an interest in you as a bottom, but not as a top. Why the constant changing? Does anyone else see this as confusing?

[jimboivyo]

my suggestion is to privately ask this question to escorts you look up to

 

you'll just dig a hole if you ask this here

[bigvalboy]

Refrain from skirmishes on any social media

 

This...

[zach_wilson]

I tried bottoming and I just couldn't handle it physically sadly some just arnt built to bottom. I would love to be vers however just can't move past the pain right away as I don't bottom and I've sadly run into to many situations where they don't want to take the adjustment time and then I end up getting hurt and it sadly isn't worth it to keep trying to be okay with being vers as if I am in pain doing it then it shows and neither party has a fun enjoyable time and isn't that what it's all about zackatack?

[zach_wilson]

I made the post as a question to make sure the marketing and my way of going about getting back into the swing of things was proper. In no way was I trying to make skirmish or anything. I've appreciated every bit of advice it's has been greatly helpful and look forward to any other future advice,I feel everyone goes about marketing and what not in different ways and different ways work for different people and so hearing advice from multiple stand points is what I really look forward to thank you all!
