Word of Mouth

Post by yeppie »

We recently had a discussion about (openly) recruitung new members from other sites. The conclusions we have come to so far:
  • We are aiming at members with a good chance to become active here.
  • Mainly for the sake of our community´s security we prefer privately approaching new members to openly recruiting - if we find somebody sharing our hobby e.g. on youtube, we don´t post a link to sexsoundlovers for everybody but send a personal message (when possible).
  • We are selective in choosing the sites on which we approach possible new members: we strongly prefer sexsound-related sites to porn sites and we prefer sexsound-posters from a general site like youtube to someone from a specialized site. It is important for us not to attract the "wrong" members.

Quoting Thomas´ proposal for the procceedings:
thomas wrote: My suggestion for a first step how to proceed to attract the "right" people: lurking at platforms like youtube (i.e. NOT the sexsound-specialized ones) for regular posters who have shared 3-4 sounds (usually the accounts are deleted after a few weeks) and leave a private message there to generate some polite awareness for this community without being to agressive). This is what I have done already quite a few times, and only if sending a private message wasn`t possible because the user has blocked this option, I made a comment below the video that there is a dedicated community for this kind of recordings. Maybe we thereby get a new contributing member, maybe not, but the we have at least tried before the account is deleted and the poster is reluctant to post something again.

If we do this more systematically (maybe now in an agreed way an on agreed youtube contributors, to avoid that about 100 messages are entering the inbox :-)) we could already make quite some progress.
So, please support the community by selectively and politely approaching potential contributors on youtube and similar platforms. If you did so, please let us know here (posting a link to the approached channel) by posting a new message with the necessary information.
