Why RentMen? a response to daddies reviews blog
Hey guys,
Mike from RentMen.com here. Several of our members contacted us about the positive comments regarding RentMen in this thread and wanted us to take a look and encouraged us to provide an update.
We can't thank you enough for your supportive words regarding our new format and features and your stated desires that we capture more of this market. I'm writing to let you know that we are aware of the opportunities before us. We've increased our usual print advertising in select markets as the budget allows - and more to the point we've been especially aggressive in the past few months as events in this competitive market niche unfold. Someone in this tread mentioned that we should create a database of prospective s and Masseurs listed on the other two sites and seize these opportunities. We did just that - by making direct contact through email and text messaging over the last month extending membership opportunities. The results have been very positive - new memberships are up by 23.4% this month. And our average growth rate in the last three quarters has been 8.2% monthly which is far more positive than the same three quarters last year. The marketplace is changing steadily, albeit slowly, and we are seeing increased growth monthly. I'm happy to be able to say that we have attracted more of you to RentMen in the last few years, and of course for obvious reasons more recently, along with more than a few high profile memberships too.
But more importantly we are thankful to all of you that have kept supporting us over the past 5 years - our long term members who count on our business and see the value we provide and the new comers - s and Clients alike. We're thankful to members that left us and have come back and have stayed. And to those that have told us they need to advertise on more than one site to avoid business loss when a sites up time is inconsistent or a sites rules change and its quality and membership experience diminishes. We are more than grateful and count our blessings.
Without your support we would not have been able to invest in a total revamp of the site and rolled out RentMen.com 2.0 a year ago. We would not have been able to invest in creating RentMen Mobile which launched just 3 months ago and is already attracting 1/3 of the user traffic of our website - check it out on your smartphone or tablet - www.m.rentmen.com - it has 100% of the website features and we're proud of it. With your support we've been able to invest in growing our support team of programmers, designers and customer service which is now up to 9 members. Two years ago we invested in having our servers and backups in two locations to minimize the potential of downtime to a few hours rather than days and to keep us ALL in business. All while not increasing our prices and while expanding our services.
Our promise to you is to remain the value leader with and Masseur membership pricing currently at about 1/3rd of the other two - with more features. For s we offer Free Travel Cities, IOHO the best visual Profile Page with unlimited large pictures and videos. No restrictions on profile text, personal site linking or rate posting. Map Me feature. Our new RentMen Of The Day feature at easily 1/3rd the cost of the others. And as always we offer a link to your DaddysReviews review page from your profile. For all our users we offer an and Client blog, Online Chat (For s, Clients, Customer Service and Webmasters), now over 5,500 original videos, Video Interviews, our free Mobile site, your own personal email address for privacy, we allow our s to interact with our clients members.. and for the clients who don't want to be bothered we offer you a privacy option. All supported by excellent responsive customer service. Dare I say the boy RentMen has grown up to the RentMan he aspired to ;-) !
We two owners created this business as retired s and entrepreneurs with a vision of providing our community with a viable and hopefully better alternative to the status quo. We will continue to invest the majority of revenue into product and into seeking effective marketing strategies to make more Clients and s aware of and members of RentMen.com. Its our passion and pride. Hey who knew we'd be in the top three when we launched so humbly in NYC five years ago. And that is all because of you.
Thanks for the opportunity and pleasure in communicating our update. And from all of us at RentMen - we sincerely wish you a warm and wonderful Happy Thanksgiving!!
Warm regards,
Mike
