Website Is the Perfect Marriage of Traditional Dating and Online Technology
CHICAGO, Jan. 30, 2008 -- If you're at a networking event looking for
a business relationship, you'd most likely hand out your business card
to potential partners and associates. So if you're looking for a romantic
relationship, it only makes sense that you'd hand out your "relationship
resume" to potential mates.
That's the way Sabah Green, founder of ResumesForRelationships.com, looks
at it. She recently launched the site to enable singles to create their
own relationship resumes. Singles also can create E-cards that can be
customized and printed out, then handed out - in person - to those who
catch their eye. The E-card reads, “Check out my Personalized Resume
@ ResumesForRelationships.com,” and instructs the recipient to log
in with a profile ID number and password that provide access to the stored
resume.
"It's all about the eye contact," says Green, who describes
her concept as bringing people back to traditional dating … but
with an online twist. "It's a great ice-breaker."
Here's how it works:
-- Single create an online resume with free setup.
-- Subscriptions run for one month at $9.95, plus an additional week at
no cost.
-- After the 37 days have expired, the resume is hidden on the site until
the monthly fee is paid again.
"Unlike other online dating sites, we do not use automatic billing,"
says Green. Her business philosophy is the same as her dating philosophy:
Be honest and straightforward. "After my divorce, entering the singles
scene again was a bit nerve-wracking, to say the least, so I created a
service that embodies my philosophy.”
While ResumesForRelationships.com is a fresh, new approach to meeting
one’s mate, Green still is quick to emphasize the traditional approach
as well – the importance of making personal connections all year
round. "You never know where you might meet someone. It could be
at the corner coffee café or the cleaners," she explains.
"With an
E-card to hand out inviting someone to view your relationship resume at
our site, you're good to go."
The resume itself is very in-depth, with questions ranging from light
("What are your hobbies?") to serious ("Are you fearful
of commitment?").
Her words of advice? "Get out there and find joy, happiness, and
much love in your journey of finding your perfect mate!"
