VENTURE BEAT — June 4 – Men who sign up with VirtualDatingAssistants.com receive 40 hours of work for $480 a month and are guaranteed at least two dates a month or they get a full refund. VirtualDatingAssistants agents set up their online profiles on sites like Match.com and PlentyofFish.com. They then manage messages and correspond with potential dates. When it comes to a first date, they will get a “pre-date executive briefing” on the woman they’re meeting. VirtualDatingAssistants offers a range of other related services, including image consulting and social coaching services. FULL ARTICLE @ VENTURE BEAT. Also in TECH CRUNCH.

I have long thought there was a market for this. I have married three male friends this way. They were not computer literate, so I set up their profiles, managed all their mail, set up their dates, then had them over for a briefing and to see her picture. All 3 married after meeting just a few women. I have since written profiles for many friends who rave about the profiles I create for them. I am very good at it, but it is not an easy talent to market. I have tried to pull up this link but the site is not available. ???

Actually $480 is a decent price for 40 hours of work, especially when compared to matchmakers who tend to charge $5k a year. I like that there’s a service guarantee in place.
However, the assistants should disclose that they are working on behalf of a 3rd party.
Ultimately, internet dating companies should offer matchmakers (of good repute) memberships in a similar fashion to recruiting sites offering headhunters enhanced access to the likes of Monster.
So a matchmaker should be able to sign up with Match.com, for example, and list their clients profiles. They should be able to receive and send notifications to other members, and those communications should be clearly denoted as coming from a matchmaker on behalf of a client. The matchmaker should pay a premium fee for each client they list.
