How did you turn matchmaking into a real career?
When I first became a matchmaker I made a lot of mistakes. I took those mistakes and really learned from them. What I did is I went out and I promoted my company. I did a lot of networking, and I did a lot of connecting and the first few clients I got, the better service you provide, the more referrals you get, and then ultimately I created an incredibly successful business. But I wanted to create a company that really helped people get into this business with a lot more resources that I had. The Matchmaking Institute really provides resources for people to transition from learning about the business and understanding the business to really opening up their own company or working for another company, having resources and press and websites, and so that really creates a substantial business to someone who really wants job independence, flexible hours, just an amazing romantic career; and I think that it really is going to replace things, like the career in real-estate. I think the career in matchmaking is going to be hotter and hotter every year.
