Shannon, owner and matchmaker of two international award-winning dating agencies, has noticed how many Singles do not know the difference between a dating site (internet/online dating with bots and algorithms) and dating agency (very confidential, personal introductions and vetting by your human matchmaker).
Blind Dating or Finding Love Again for Real?
Many Singles do not go “shopping” for a new soulmate every second day and don’t know where to start meeting new partner prospects!! Some Singles are new to the dating game (mainly Gen Z and even some Millennials who decide it is time to settle). Some Singles seeking new love after a break-up, divorce or losing a beloved, usually end up on dating sites because this is what the buzz is on how to open new doors.
Singles Seeking Safe Dating Find a Matchmaker
Many smart Singles seek an alternative to a common dating site after finding internet dating can be a nightmare!! Sincere and dating intentionally, it is often overwhelming how many approaches they get from those seeking hook-ups, a fling, have agendas, are catfish (not who they say they are) or downright scammers (usually discovering their folly after paying dearly for making this mistake – to the tune of billions lost to scamming every year from the gullible and vulnerable hopeful souls who think finding a partner is easy!). The alternative is a reputable dating agency who understands the needs of every individual on their database, recruiting and introducing the best dating prospects to everyone one-on-one!!
A dating agency may have a smaller pool of clients but offer more personalized matchmaking services means more accurate matches, mainly because all the undesirable elements have been discarded already. They have also done much date ready preparation and date coaching with a client before they start their journey.
Identifying The Needs of a Single Lady or Bachelor
Shannon finds that many Singles do not actually know what love is, or being in a committed relationship really means!! Through a sensitive personal service, a matchmaker often relies on their expertise as they are para-psychologists, human behaviourists, profilers and registered date coaches with empathy and understanding of the pain of being single and alone. Match makers who personally interview clients understand their preferences, values, and relationship goals and work with the clients. Matches are often made based on a combination of personal intuition and client preferences/criteria, and researched knowledge of the dynamics and steps in the dating game. No match is ever perfect – it is on how to achieve that imperfect-perfection once there is attraction to look deeper.
Would Anybody Date a Stranger?
While many dating sites do try to screen the obviously undesirable types and may have measures in place to verify and vet users (e.g., profile verification, reporting mechanisms), the sheer volume of users can make it more challenging to monitor and regulate but if someone is seeking safe dating, you are then just as exposed to verification and your details openly shared to all and sundry. Is this safe then to date a stranger?
Choosing a good dating agency ad paying an admin fee is the best option because a personal service will prioritize safety and authenticity, conducting background checks and thorough screening processes for clients. Matchmakers are also date coaches who provide support and guidance throughout the dating process because it is not called “The Dating Game” without reason!! Know your game!!
The Cost of Dating In 2024
Recently many online dating platforms still offer free basic memberships with limited features, but they often have subscription options or premium features that require payment if you want a more thorough search – so in the end nothing is really for free!! It also depends on how serious a person is on finding a strong love connection and what they are prepared to invest in their own future happiness (and not just seeking a fling).
Your dating service is a personal service and typically this involves costs as there are many resources a dating agency needs on their client’s behalf, mainly human labour and strong marketing. Costs can differ and budgets and terms can be negotiated, and fees may vary depending on the level of service and duration of engagement. Ask!!
