I am new to the site and I do not have any reviews yet. I am having a difficult time getting reviews because it seems that because I dont have reviews I am attracting people who dont leave them. Oh the catch 22!! So what should I do ?

Anyhow, looking forward to meeting some of you in person and till then
Happy Holidays all and thanks for the advise in advance.

XOXO

Welcome to TER. It is hard getting you first review but have patience it will likely happen if you encourage it to.

How to get reviews:

Participate on the boards, as people read your post they are more likely to take a chance on seeing you. Once your reviewed you can have your handle linked and each post is almost a mini ad. Here is how.

Advertise on you regional board. It is free and those who see your ad on TER are more likely to write a review . Here is a link on the rules for ads here.

Don't be afraid to ask for reviews. Some only write reviews if they know you want one. I won't write one unless I know she is OK with it. I normally ask, but sometimes I forget.

If you have a web site have a link to TER to make it easy for your clients to find this site and so you can link to it in your ads. You also might want to have your site TER reviewed. Here is a link on that and a link to the TER banners.

I hope this helps. Have fun. :D

Hope to read more from you in the future. ;)



Post ads on your local/regional TER board.

Remember, it isn't OK to offer anything in exchange for a "good review", however, you can offer a discount to verified TER members (to increase the chances of a review) or offer a discount for a second visit if they review your first visit. Of course, the second option pre-supposes a good enough service to get a repeat visit and would likely be for your home area only.

Of course, assuming you photos are accurate, if you came to Baltimore for a tour I might be encouraged to TOFTT and write that review ;-)

Providers are persuasive people, so use that charm and simply ask the guy while he's still beaming.

That's what it took to get me to take the plunge.

You guys are so awesome!!
Thank you sooo much for all of the info! You guys made me smile big for sure!

And I am in Baltimore quite often *wink*

again, you guys have been so helpful!!!!

and offer a discount, say $50 off, for TER members.  After you have read the Self-Help area you will see that you can post 1 ad per week on your regional board.  The discount may help attract TER guys to you.  What you don't want to do is offer the discount if the guy writes a review, that is considered unethical.
