Wow...who needs soaps, hell this is a decent replacement for SOA
To the OP, this is a much tougher market then SoCal by a large margin. Lots of options and a relatively loyal following. I reached out to an ATF for both Mon & Tues (traveling a lot) as well as someone I have been wanting to meet. As others have mentioned if your older you need to have a cultivated image....many to chose from but Latin Barbie comes to mind I was lucky to be a steady date for a bit but many complained they could never book her u here. Many say the same about both my current ATF's here.
Take the time and make the effort and capitalism will reward you....or not. While there are a lot of options there is truly not a lot of cream at the top...always room for someone new. All that happened is the market told you your current product didn't have enough curb appeal to maintain interest. That's a harsh reality that can be painful but the flip side is that many of us do go out of our way to cultivate and maintain relationships with those whose company we enjoy.
This is a great market if you can cultivate a genuine following and a bitch if you can't.
All the Best
