Hate Blind Dates? How a Matchmaking Service Can Change Your Mind

June 16, 2015

Are you someone who would rather pull out your fingernails and then dip your hands in acetone before you would ever go on a blind date? If so, chances are that it’s because you’ve been on one before and, quite frankly, it sucked. And all you need is one bad blind date to make you want to swear off all of them forever.

At the same time, we’re thinking that if you’ve even gotten this far into the article, there must be some part of you that’s at least a little curious about why you should give blind dating just one more try. Our thoughts are these: Although your family members, friends and/or co-workers all probably meant well when they set you up, when people close to you do it, 8 times out of 10, it’s still basically a shot in the dark.

This is so not the case when you decide to hire a professional matchmaking company like Tawkify. No matter what your blind date horror stories may be, they are confident that they can give you the kind of blind date that will lead to a happy ending. (Or at least a really amazing first and follow-up date!)

Matchmaking services are devoted to providing great blind dates. While you’re at work, here’s the thing to remember about professional matchmaking services: they are hard at work too. Only, their focus is making sure that you end up having the best blind date possible. However long that takes, they are willing to invest their time, effort and expertise towards accomplishing the mission. To them, a successful blind date means they are doing their job effectively. To say that they take that seriously is a major understatement.

Matchmakers like making good matches. When people you know decide to match you up, they tend to rely more on “gut instinct” or even wishful thinking than anything else. Sometimes that works. Most times it doesn’t. But when you use a professional matchmaker, there’s a methodology applied. There is extensive screening. There are personal interviews. And there are certain skills that are applied to insure that you are matched up with a truly suitable person. And so yes, while the first date will be a blind one for you, you can be certain that the matchmaking company put the date together with their eyes wide open.

Matchmaking services respect your investment. We won’t lie to you. You get what you pay for, so if you want a quality first date, you’re going to have to shell out a bit of cash. But if you decide to go with a matchmaking service like Tawkify, rather than spending thousands each month, you can spend $600 instead. At the same time, matchmaking services work for a living just like you do. Therefore, they know that money is not easy to come by. They know that you hiring them means that you made a pretty major investment. Therefore, it matters to them that they give you a good ROI (Return On your Investment).

Tawkify sets up unbelievable dates. One of the reasons why Tawkify is currently getting so much media attention in New York and San Francisco (the two cities they currently service) is because not only are they great at pairing people together (roughly 80 percent of their clients end up going on second dates), but they’re known for also creating mind-blowing dates too. So, if a part of you doesn’t like blind dates because they seem to be the same ole, same ole “dinner and a movie”, a reputable matchmaking service like Tawkify can definitely change your mind. (Just ask the woman whose first date was planning her wedding at Tiffany’s!)

Matchmaking services are tenacious. Say that you decide to go with a professional matchmaking service and your first date doesn’t go so well. If you think you’re disappointed, that’s not even close to how upset the company that set you up will feel! Reputable matchmaking services pride themselves on putting a smile on each client’s face. They take you, your time and your expectations very seriously. And to know that someone else is just as interested in you having a successful blind date as you are? Yeah, isn’t that enough of a reason to at least give them a call? C’mon, what can it hurt? Like, really…what can it hurt to take a chance on an amazing first date with someone who a team of people hand-selected for you? If that doesn’t change your mind…what will?
