I’ve been refining my skills for years, learning everything I can about dating, matchmaking, and relationships. I do this so that everyday people don’t have to do it themselves and instead can put their trust in me and my team to be their guiding hand in dating.
With this in mind, we’ve put together a list of common questions our clients have so you can fully understand our process.
– Alexandra Freeman, Co-Founder & Head Matchmaker
General Questions
Are you local to ?
Our co-founder and head matchmaker, Alexandra Freeman, is a nationally recognized dating and relationship coach with extensive connections in the matchmaking industry. We currently have clients all across the US, Canada, the UK, and the UAE. We also have local scouts in and around other cities near who are always on the lookout for elite, relationship-minded singles like you. These scouts are our eyes and ears on the ground in . Since we have a wide network of Professional Matchmakers in , you could be matched with Singles in nearby cities, if you prefer.
What does a matchmaking service do?
A matchmaking service is essentially engaged in playing cupid for you and how each company does that is very unique! Depending on many factors specific to you, we may or may not be the right dating service for you, but we would love to figure that out together.
There are certain corporate matchmaking agencies, that do not do any scouting for each individual client. These lower-cost, high-turnover matchmaking companies keep their costs down by matching you with the easiest options available. You will meet matches, and you might even get lucky enough to find love, but there won’t be any targeted outreach specifically on your behalf.
Matchmaker is a bespoke matchmaking service, where each matchmaker only works with a handful of clients at a time. With a personalized service like ours, the goal is to spend as much of our time as possible getting you in front of the best matches for you, and presenting you in the best light. For example, we might want to get you in front of a photographer first thing so we can get some flattering photos of you for your comprehensive profile or we may recommend date coaching or other specialized services. Each client’s program is created on a case-by-case basis, curated specifically to their needs.
Is matchmaking better than online dating?
It depends. A high-end matchmaking service such as Matchmaker is not right for everyone.
We tell all our potential VIP Members that there are three basic requirements for someone to benefit from our service:
- Financial Stability
- Commitment
- Relationship Readiness
Just like you hire a trainer to build your fitness routine, or a financial advisor to manage investments, you can retain our services to outsource the headhunting involved in dating. For busy professionals, high-level executives, and other upscale clientele using our service, the benefit of time saved outweighs the cost incurred.
Online dating has become a job in itself. How do you go about weeding out the fake profiles, the deadbeats, and the just not compatible? With a service like Matchmaker, you don’t have to.
Do you have access to singles I might not meet on my own?
Absolutely! The three biggest things we can do to find singles just for you, are searching our nationwide database, marketing for you as our client, and referrals we can seek from matchmakers we work with.
Once we decide to work together, we will reach out to potential matches in as many ways as possible such as using paid advertising, possibly creating a dedicated section for you on our site, or even social media campaigns. This will all be catered to your needs, openness, and how comfortable you are with us sharing details about you with potential matches.
We also work with matchmakers across the US and even internationally. These matchmakers, via their own social and professional networks, have access to elite, successful, and relationship-ready clients. These matchmakers work on a paid referral system of which all fees are paid by us, on our client’s behalf.
This is all in addition to our own database of high-end, vetted singles that our matchmakers have access to. Our database has been curated with care over the last decade and includes potential matches all across the world.
Would I be set up on blind dates?
At Matchmaker we do not do blind dating in most circumstances. The majority of our VIP Members prefer to be actively involved in evaluating the matches they want to pursue. This is why we share photos and relevant information about potential matches with our members, and the VIP Members have the final say about who they would prefer to meet in person.
Having said that, there might be scenarios where you and your matchmaker decide that sending you on a few blind dates is a good idea. This is uncommon and only done in specific circumstances. No two clients are alike, and we custom-design our entire program based on who we work with.

The three main things we can do to find matches just for you are searching our nationwide database, marketing for you as our client, and referrals we can seek from matchmakers and industry experts we work with.
It has been a while since I have dated. Is Matchmaking right for me?
Yes! Many of our VIP Members at Matchmaker come from varied backgrounds. Some of them may have just come out of a long-term relationship or got divorced after being married for years. We don’t apply the same strategy to any two members.
Based on what your matchmaker learns during your initial consultations, we will tailor the strategy to you. For example, if you haven’t dated or socialized recently, we might set you some goals for going out alone or in a group.
If you are truly relationship-minded, no matter what your current situation, we recommend that you get in touch with us!
