ManOhMike's Massage Interview
How would you like someone that contacts you for a massage to feel when they leave?
I want my clients to feel the blissful, comfortable, relaxed but energized and can’t wait to return for another session. Want them to feel like they just don’t want to leave, unfortunately they have to… LOL
What distinguishes you from all the other Masseurs?
My personality, and my ***y little bod. Lol
Tell us a little about yourself, if you were to pick something what would you like your clients to absolutely know about you?
Very much into working out and the beach. I love laying out in the sun, it seems to energize me. Try to keep a clean diet to stay lean.
How long have you been a Masseur and how long do think you'd like to continue?
I started shortly after graduating high school. Yes it’s been a long time and hopefully another long time to go.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to be a Masseur?
Be prepared to work hard and build a clientele. Don’t ever work for a salon, you’ll work your *** off and not make any money.
How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or are you more of a homebody?
I usually travel to Orlando, Tampa. Sarasota and St Petersburg. Staring to travel again so keep an eye out for my travel dates. Yes I am working while I travel.
Do you remember your first client ? Tell us something about that first day when you decided to be a Masseur!
My first client was very nerve wracking. As much as I’ve done so many massages while in school it just seems like a whole different environment being in someone’s home. Yes my first massage client was a Outcall. Was so nervous I’m sure he didn’t get a good massage. Never heard from him again… lol
Is extensive training necessary for a Masseur in order to be successful?
Knowledge can never hurt anyone. Training is good for the basic skills needed but I think most of my experience came from just doing doing doing massages. After a while I just developed new moves and strokes, also listening to the clients feedback is important. When a client says “ahh that feels so good” make a note of that move.
Some people say that being a Masseur is addictive. Would you miss your Masseur days ?
I definitely would. I touched so many lives in a positive way. Came across so many nice and friendly people that I’ve connected with and felt really comfortable. Would definitely miss this business if ever I have to retire from it.
Do you consider yourself a successful Masseur?
I definitely would. Over the years I’ve built up a good repeat clientele and gain new clients on a daily basis. Yes this has been a great career for me.
How do you like clients to feel about the experience when they leave?
I want my clients to feel blissful, relaxed but energized, a euphoric feeling in the muscles. I want them to leaving and can’t wait to come back.
What are your hobbies, what do you like to do in your spare time?
Gym!! Gym!! Gym!! Lol Also love the beach. The sun seems to energize me and my body loves the sun ( maybe a little too much ). I also love fast sports cars. The faster, the ***ier. Yes !!!
Why did you become a Masseur?
After graduating high school I didn’t want to go to college. I was looking for more of a hands on career. Came across Masssge therapy and thought, perfect. Love it and never looked back
