I've recently started promoting the Libertarian Party on the erotic services board of San Francisco's CraigsList, which is read by many escorts and other sex workers and their clients. It's great free advertising, and you can easily do it too.
If you live in or near a major city, chances are good there is a CraigsList for your area. Here is a list of the locations for which they have local sites: http://www.craigslist.org/about/cities.html
Once you've found your city's CraigsList, just click on "erotic" under the "services" heading, get past the disclaimer page to the list of messages, and then click "post" in the upper right-hand corner. This will take you into a series of pages giving instructions on how to post a message.
At the bottom of this message is the text and html code for the message I created. You can either use this as inspiration for writing your own copy, or just copy and paste what I've written into the text area for the post you create (though don't forget to take out the local references to San Francisco, or substitute information about your own local LP chapter if you live in another part of the country!)
For the title, I used "e$B!ze(B The Libertarian Party Supports Sex Workers & Clients Rights, SWOP e$B!ze(B". To use the little star symbol ("e$B!ze(B"), type "★" (without the quotes) wherever you want it to appear in your post. It's just a way of drawing more visual attention to the message. I mentioned SWOP in the title not only because they are a good organization that is specifically focused on the sex work issue from a generally libertarian perspective, but also because the San Francisco CraigsList erotic services board includes a link to SWOP's website at the top of the page, so many people using the site are likely to be familiar with the group. It appears that the erotic services boards in other cities do not have a SWOP link, however.
Use this link to see what the copy below looks like online: http://www.craigslist.org/sfc/ers/55826011.html (note that CraigsList posts stay online for 10 days, after which this link will no longer work).
Peace, love & liberty,

Tired of being treated like a <b>criminal</b> for providing erotic services for a living, or for using those services?
<br>
Tired of the <b>double standard</b> of laws that say you can give it away, but not sell it?
<br>
Tired of the <b>hypocrisy</b> of Democrat and Republican politicians who write laws to fine or jail other people for things they do themselves?

<b><size=20>The Libertarian Party</size></b> needs your support so we can fight this bull---- on behalf of people like yourself. Please don't wait! Here's how you can help:
<br>

<br>

Here in San Francisco we have a committed group of local activists including several sex workers. One of them (Starchild) ran for School Board in the last election and was listed on the ballot as an escort/exotic dancer! We also supported the <a href=http://www.swop-usa.org>Sex Workers Outreach Project</a> (SWOP) campaign to decriminalize prostitution in Berkeley.
