Of course, I'm a provider.  

No matter what you do on or off the boards, different things turn a guy on and off. I've gotten numerous requests (if you read pretty much all my reviews lol) from posts on the boards; however, I also get slammed and 'I'll never see you' due to the same posts.

I, however, have answered ISO's a few times - but have never gotten a response. I merely do it if, 1. I think of something silly to say, 2. It's an opportunity to inform lurkers that are interested that I'm in a specific area, etc.  I'm assuming those who answer every one have gotten one or two. That's a thousand plus more than I made lol.  

Really, we attract what we attract by our marketing strategy, our personalities, our eagerness, our pics, our presence, etc.  

Does that help?

P.S. It doesn't turn me on or off, but if I see someone is doing very well, and they're answering them, it's encouragement to me that it has worked.

advertising always increases business..it is better to be visible than not..

I appreciate it because it lets me know who's around, particularly if I find myself alone in a strange city.

because I see their posts on these iso threads. The same goes for the picture thread, the girls that do these things are not far from my mind. When I decided I wanted to see somebody new and exciting guess who popped into my mind? And I'm really glad I did. That's how I see it anyhow.

Not at all....

Advertising and getting there name out is Marketing that is how the ladies make a living here.
If you have a better way to sell your Ass!

                                Please share it with the ladies

"Marketing"!

Not REALLY. .love to see more providers interested in some of the topics

and that's how I found my ATF, I commented on a post of hers, and we spent a few weeks back and forth till I finally met her and when I did it felt like we were old friends.

because she posts a lot on this board and the pic thread. When I heard she was going to visit my area I was already familiar with her, through her answering these iso posts. I already knew what she was about and immediately contacted her when she posted a visiting ad, even though I thought I wasn't looking for anyone new right now. People can be impulsive sometimes, lol.

When a lady reads a ISO post and she does fit the request of the poster and is in the general area, then by all means reply to it  

But when the lady does not fit his request and is more then a 2 hour drive away,  then they should think twice about answering the post, If you look desperate to get a appointment, it's a big turn off ( to me at lest).

I think the real issue is that so few people are really involved on this board that one or two names always stand out when they reply. If postings got replies from 7 or 8 ladies (like they used to), you wouldn't even notice that the same two ladies reply to every post.

I think it is great that the ladies participate by responding to the requests and it is a great way for them to get their name out there.  I have met several great providers this way after sending them PMs.
