There are so many people in the world looking for their soul mates. Deep down everyone wants someone to spend their lives with. Matchmaking is becoming a popular occupation as thousands of people nowadays don't have the time or don't want to go out and find the right person themselves.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • Lots of people
  • A database of information and photos
  • Dating advice guides

Step1
Start out by getting to know a lot of people. Talk to them about their lives, who they are and what they want from life. Offer to set them up with someone else you know. Try this several times with friends and acquaintances. You need to have some good matches so you can obtain solid referrals and recommendations.
Step2
Set up a basic website with all your information, your services and of course, your recommendations and quotes from them. Make some business cards to give to potential clients.
Step3
Attend some singles networking events and speed dating sessions. Pass out business cards to these people and talk about your services.
Step4
Set up a database. As people call you and decide to try out your services you will fill in their information. Create client information sheets. Have each person fill these out completely and then type it into your system later.
Step5
Search through your database for potential matches based on the clients' interests, desires and personalities. Meet with each client to go over general dating tips and advice to make sure they are their best selves on the date. Set up a date for the two.
Step6
Call your clients after each date and ask how it went. Get feedback as to whether they were good matches, they had dating flaws or things were just perfect. If the date doesn't work out try again with someone else. Continue working with clients, obtaining new clients, coaching them and setting up dates. Good luck!

Tips & Warnings

  • If a match turns out to be disastrous offer to try another for the person for free (you don't want a bad reputation)
  • Don't take on clients if you get the feeling they don't really want to find a long term relationship
