Unfortunately, you can’t massage the whole world population at once, so most people will never know of your greatness. You will have to content yourself with being merely very popular among those who partake of your services.

About the only way you could become a famous massage therapist would be to have a book (or books) published about your craft, or about a totally new and wildly popular type of massage that you have invented. The "wildly popular" part is vital, because you aren't likely to sell many copies if your signature massage involves whipping clients with wet, rolled-up dishrags.
