ONLINE DATING PROFILES and STRIKING Similarities with Sales Marketing


Lifestyle BLOG posting from a couple with a psychology degree in human behavioral studies and a former professional Dating coach.

We have written some blog posts truly hoping make this community a better place through teaching others how offer quality communication, interaction, and increasing the skills necessary be successful creating a quality profile meet more people.

This post will be helpful for all members’ couples, single women and men are trying meet others using these types of media platforms or any online site.

Most people start a membership on any site hoping get connected with people in a few days not realizing they have no plan for marketing themselves.

Sadly most will be deactivated profiles in a few short months not knowing what went wrong and feeling that online is useless and unsuccessful.

We have seen ’s OF THOUSANDS of men QUIT and deactivate in less than a few months DUE NOT meeting anyone and it all Starts with the profile itself.

Like the Cliché if you HAVE NO PLAN , you PLAN FAIL!

Online platforms whether sexually oriented or not, are more MARKETING oriented than you might think.

Most members post a torso pic, dick pic ,boob photo or some other non-descript pic that does not show well, and then even worse , no profile description or information for the reader to glean and determine if there is a good match or if there is potential to move forward with that person to meet.

Think about it this way:

When you go shopping for say; a box of cereal, there are HUNDREDS of different brands and options available in the isle.

Would you choose to purchase the cereal brand that a has a non-descript photo, no ingredients information, and no information on the company?

Would you choose to go to the restaurant to eat if it had no pics, no description and no detail on what type of food or ambiance it offered?

We think almost 0% the answer would be NO.

When you are creating a profile imagine you are in competition with literally MILLIONS of other profiles in the immediate area for other member’s attention.

No quality pics and no description will place you at a MARKETING disadvantage!

Everyone one else has spent the time, effort and research on how create a quality profile which markets their personality, attractiveness and lifestyle direction accurately, packaged with a certain level of exciting details and pictures that makes you want READ and meet the person who created the profile will be more successful.

It’s exactly how we shop for products and has a striking similarity on how we choose people meet using online platforms.

All of the skills you use choose the right car, right house, right restaurant go and eat ,should be the skills you use create a successful profile.

When you are looking CHOOSE something you are drawn certain things: let’s take a car for example.

1) You will shop for the best photos that strike your interest in attractiveness.

2) You will research the company and match for the right functionality and package options you like that best to fit your personality and driving style.

mileage, power options, GPS technology, automatic lights etc. etc....in other words you did some RESEARCH and read some things about the car

3) You will search for specific brand or TYPE of car and check reliability info and other things that are important you

4) You will search for a certain location to see the car in your area and TEST drive to see if it’s a match, not choose the car that is 2000 miles away.

These are just examples but transition this thinking into creating an ONLINE PROFILE and you should use the skills, description and details that attract the right kind of people towards your BRAND profile.

Use quality photos to show personality, action sports, music, art, interest you may have, sexy well-dressed photos for men and women to garner attention and interest

NOT a selfie in the bathroom with a toilet in the background or a mundane DICK pic with your sweat pants pulled down. ?

I mean think about it. When was last time you went a bar, pulled your pants down and got a date? LOL

Or the famous photo in the bedroom with an array of unkempt clothing , food articles and SHIT laying all over the place.

There are MILLIONS of profiles that truly have NO VALUE at all to their profile yet expect to meet people and get frustrated when they don’t.

It helps to know that sexually based website or not; there are many common things we do every day in our lives to make choices yet, here we completely disregard them in favor of meaningless pics and no description profiles, thinking it will work.

This is not how men and women psychologically choose to meet, or spend time to choose or see a product.

THE PRODUCT in this case IS YOUR PROFILE PAGE AND HOW YOU REPRESENT YOURSELF OTHERS.

YES there will be a few people as a minority of the population will choose meet you from a sentence profile and non-descript pic , but this will be very rare.

If you dont spend time on quality pics and something EXCITING and valuable say , why would anyone want or feel enticed meet?

You have already set yourself up for failure.

Its amazing us that we get contacted everyday people want meet but have NO profile pic, no description, no value.

Or just nude bathroom selfie pics of dicks,close up of boob-or NO PIC AT ALL. Its just not a reliable way choose meet.

Yet they ask if we are interested?

WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN ANYTHING YOU CANT SEE, READ ABOUT OR HAVE ANY INFORMATION AT ALL?

In todays hyper availability of information we see more than half of the profiles out there with NOTHING in them.

Taking the time learn the process on how humans make choices , certain marketing ideas and using them in your own profile will be more than POWERFUL in making you successful here.

It just takes a little more thought, effort and time

I am obviously a year late replying to this post, but then again, I just now discovered both the authors (you two), your profile, and this useful advice.

I have been an MenNation.com member for 5-6 years, and I have remained quite active for most of that time. Very rarely have I seen this kind of intelligent content, useful insights and error-free grammar. And never have I encountered a discussion about how to apply marketing principles to online socializing. As they say, I know just enough about the topic to be dangerous: I do not have a formal background in marketing, but for most of my professional career a marketing/communication department has been part of my portfolio, and through osmosis and the good guidance of the marketing pros I supervised, I did learn a few things.

I'd enjoy comparing notes and sharing experiences. And of course I'm curious how you'd rate my MenNation.com profile. It's been a work in progress for several years. I've tried to keep it fresh and add recent photographs as I move along. I have always had a specific audience in mind--and in particular intelligent beings who are themselves very selective. I'm not everyone's cup of tea, but I am willing to be patient until good matches present themselves. I'd say that I've been successful with my marketing strategy, and I've been pleased with the results. (Details are available in private communication.)

Thanks for sharing and for shaking things up. I look forward to reading more of your contributions--and maybe even having some 1:1 communication.

Thank you for writing this. I'm new here and this is the only dating site I have joined and paid for. I've tried free versions of sites like POF etc, just to look and see what it's all about, but left after a few days. So all of this is new to me. Your advice helps. I plan to do a lot of reading in here. Thanks again.

I would like thank Jchris2018 to read this article on his blog. I totally agree with all he say. It put me in shame , because I was thinking about myself that I'm doing good. While reading this powerful article ( for me) I realized, that I'm the minority with sweat pants with the toilet in background. With all do respect thank you .

I have had this discussion a few times with members; counselling them to view their profile and blog as their ‘marketing’ tool and ‘brand’. What you put out, most often, determines what you attract. Pretty fundamental yet seemingly difficult for many to comprehend 🤔.

with all the fakes, flakes and outright blatant fuckery on this site, It's easy for some to simply say, "This is me and I really don't give a rats purple ass what you think of me."

Way to many believing this is some kind a popularity contest... Say Fuck It and have fun.

PEEKING!!!

Good post, unfortunately SweetCirce is correct.

There have been a lot of good instructional posts like this over the years, probably a few learn from time to time but overall the situation remains the same.

Following my advice may cause injury, insanity, financial loss, hemorrhoids, death and superpowers

Common sense really. Since most won't show their faces but demand others do or they won't be social.Tends to make any effort unappreciated gallant or otherwise!

Using more than all the road!
