Why no Black Tgirls nominated for AVN? Xbiz? Tranny Awards?

[GroobySteven]

By the way, I know the answer.

I advertised for pre-nominations for a month on transsexual fan boards, the Grooby sites, Twitter (@groobysteven), tgflix.com and press released it. The models should have and could have lobbied their fans to get pre-noms in as well as done it themselves and the fans should have simply done some nominations for their favourite models or scenes. They didn't - they were too lazy, they were too complacent or they simply do not have favourites among the models.
This is the same process for AVN and Xbiz - none of the girls are putting themselves out there and none of the fans are pushing models forward. I've nominated black models in the past for shows and they've appeared on the bill (this year I didn't as I had others I wanted to push).

This site has about 50% of the membership of Shemale Yum and an extremely more active forum. Yet only a few dozen people have submitted for Black Tgirls Model of the Year ... when hundreds have submitted for Shemale Yum Model of the Year.
Lazy. Complacent. OR just no real "stars" sticking out?
Nominations for BTG of the Year with the $1000 prize are still being taken.

Im gonna be extremely honest in this post. If it was easier to vote then cool, but fact is im not trying to click this link then that link, then search for this and search for that. Its the truth. I wish there was some type of way you could set up voting on this site, but all of it just seems like a hassle just to nominate someone so we dont. Really no other way to say it.

You might be a marketing and branding expert in some fields but not for porn. Classy has nothing to do with it - engaging your fans everything.

I'd agree with that. Frankly if it seems like the girls themselves don't care, then why would the fans get worked up over it? Simply put, they won't.

said correctly ;-)

I think there are a multitude of reasons:

Some girls fall into deals with shady webmasters are a tainted by the experience

Some dont really understand the potential of a website; they'll use it for advertising purposes when they go 'on your'. And being that most of them associate with 'like-minded' individuals so no one is there to give them a push

Some are just flat out lazy, scared or both

Finally, some lose fans because of their attitudes. I, for one, have cancelled my membership to a girl's site because of sonething she said

How hard is it?
1. As a site member there is a direct link from the members page - click it and enter the models names.

2. As a forum member send me a PM with a "tranny awards code" message - get the code, click the link and vote. 2 mins.

As I said, lazy and complacent unlike the members of the other site - or you just don't care enough about one model over another.

LOL...sure.

If anyone whose up and coming need some advice on how to market and brand themselves more efficiently, send me a PM. I'll give you some advice free of charge.

Werwt22, this is a hilarious statement. The multiple clicks got to be too much. I know I shouldn't laugh but I did.

All I know is I am going to buy both those DVD's, continue to support more black tgirl releases, and that I am going to the Tranny Awards to buy drinks for my favs who were not nominated. But all I want to know is who's coming with me?

Sorry that im not a fanatic. Nothing wrong with supporting the people you idolize/emulate/adore, but I'm just a regular guy. Just commenting from the other end of the spectrum. No matter what you say or how bad you knock me, it doesnt change the reasons for me not "voting". I'm just giving insight to what would help people such as myself be more interactive.

It's given the insight, it's answered one of my theories.
