Yeah, the scary part is that I was out with Mike the night that picture of him was taken. You don't want to know where he put that bottle..........

Welcome aboard!
Nice site, great concept.
I think you are on the right track in working towards selling premium listings ... my only point would be the level of hardcore you publish on the site ... a lot of mainstream companies (and many adult stores fall more under this category than they do under 'porn' because they have so many rules to follow) might be funny about including their store on a site with a big pic of a chick with a dick in her mouth across the top.
I know that sounds silly ........... but you'd be amazed! Without the hardcore you could also get some press in adult print publications.
But all of that is just details until you get traffic.
Someone mentioned coupons, which is a huge area that might be worth persuing as a gimmick to generate traffic. if you offered discounts to at least 1 store in every city, optimized your site for se's, got some link swaps going and did a mailout to launch the service, you could pick up some good traffic based solely on your discount vouchers. You are also putting yourself in the position of the middle man - "Visit me before you visit the store" ....
An ok coupon site ...

Another suggestion I'd make is to take out some ads in some cheap adult publications ... those newspaper style things that are picked up in adult stores. Contact the editors first and ask for editorial to go with your advertising and test out a few reasonably priced ones who will give you good promotion. or you could swap ad space for premium listings on your site ......
anyway, the ideas are easy. implementing them is the hard bit ;-)
good luck!
