Don't get discouraged. If you build it, they will come! I just provide good service, return emails quickly, and am honest and polite in all dealings. I also try to put my personality into advertisements; it makes me more attractive than just a hot body.
Hi Guys and Gals
I have worked for a great agency in my area but have decided to make the move to indy. I am what you would call GFE never had less than an 8 in the performance department. Just looking for any tips the community may have that will help me gain and maintain regulars.
Try doing some tours.
If your just starting out as a indy I wouldn't go on a tour until you feel comfortable verifying and get used toit first. it's not easy being on tour, its tougher than people think. so at first get used to all the in and outs and then go on tour. just my opinion on tours.
Ginger - congratulations and good luck in your new venture.
Here are some things you can do:
1) Your website -
Its a good start, and with it already having the TER badge, it is ready to be linked to any messages you post on here. You may want to add other means of contact (phone number, email), in addition to the contact form. You may also want to indicate the days and hours you are available. This can be done as part of your "About Me" introduction, or by using the site's calender feature. Finally, you will want to list somewhere on your site what city(s) you work in or are willing to travel to.
2) Using TER -
The first thing you want to contact TER Admin, either via the "contact us" button, or email [email protected]. You need to request a) update your review profile to your new site and and contact details, b) link your profile to your user name (this will post a link to your reviews on all of your posts and give you free "limited" VIP access, and c) since you have more than 3 reviews, you can request access to the "Providers" board. You definitely want to begin advertising on advertising on your local TER regional board. Finally, you may want to click the "Link to this Review" button your profile. It has some useful info.
You appear to be doing things right thus far, so keep up the good work. If you have more questions, feel free to ask here. And don't you dare color your hair!!! I've always been a sucker for red heads,
