Ask around. One of the best ways to hire a matchmaker is through word of mouth. If you have a friend or family member who has used a matchmaker before, find out who they went to and if they liked them or not. You can find out a lot about a matchmaker by her clients' testimonials.

Get references. Before you hire a matchmaker, you'll need to talk to some of their clients to find out if the service is worth the cost. Most matchmakers have either written testimonials or phone numbers of past clients, so you can check up on their work.

Crunch the numbers. A good matchmaker is going to cost you quite a bit of money, so find out how much they charge up front and ask what that price includes. One might charge per match or there might be one flat fee that covers all services.

Be prepared for the interview. A good matchmaker will ask about your past, present and future aspirations to get a better feel for who you are as a person. Be perfectly honest with her and don't be afraid to tell her what you really want from a relationship.

Tips & Warnings
Remember that even the best matchmakers can't make someone fall in love with you. So don't automatically blame a failed relationship on the matchmaker's skills.
