Good maker

Yesterday when I was passing out fliers I noticed young and middle aged men would stand beside me and young women would soon come to meet them. They would speak for a few seconds and then leave together. This went on for a while until I finished. Later a friend told me that they were call girls and that they were using me as a marker. When a customer would call from out of the area they would tell him to stand next to the tall white haired foreign guy who is handing out fliers and I'll meet you there.
I guess that I'm a pretty good marker.
