Helping Mr Right meet his match
Sunday March 28 2010
MEN don't need help meeting women. They just need a shortcut to meeting the right women.
And so the wait is over. Two's Company, the Irish matchmaking agency founded by Jennifer Haskins and Bill Phelan, is offering men the chance to meet beautiful, successful and educated women.
As previous members of a dating agency, they have set up a fresh-thinking, private and confidential introduction agency for unattached individuals. However, they are running short on men.
According to Bill: "The cornerstone of what we do is confidentiality and discretion, thus enabling our members to use our services without fears or concerns. The experience should be exciting and fun, but above all safe. People who join an agency like ours have standards they don't wish to drop; they value their personal details and privacy too much and want to protect them."
For men with money, prestige or a wall of diplomas who want to keep their search for a mate under wraps, this service offers the confidentiality they want with the hope of improving their chances of meeting the perfect partner. "Many of our clients are just too busy to spend the little free time they have trying to meet someone on their own. They are goal oriented and want to be as proactive as they can to achieve their goal of finding a happy relationship" said Jennifer.
According to Bill, men have a very different perspective and approach to meeting a partner. "We have several high-profile male clients whose main concern is confidentiality and professionalism. They require a high level of discretion, they want a service that can introduce them to women of similar backgrounds, with similar interests, and who share the same high standards."
Matchmaking is a very difficult business because one is dealing with emotions and high expectations. In Two's Company the qualification process is very thorough. Bill and Jennifer get to know customers' likes, dislikes, successes and heartbreaks. They are firm believers that successful relationships are based on a foundation of morals, values and common interests.
"Two's Company provides a select, more exclusive non-mainstream alternative, which is not data-base driven, but dedicated to the discerning, affluent or successful professional who requires an individual approach to finding potential partners pro-actively. As such, you will undoubtedly have high standards and enjoy the finer things in life. So finding a potential partner with a similar lifestyle and relationship goal, makes meeting the right people, at the right time extremely difficult, and even more so as we get older. So we are here to help you," said Jennifer.
Men can expect to get introductions earlier than women due to the ratio of males to females, and women being more proactive. But, introductions balance out over a 12-month period. Two's Company can be reached at 1850 241 241 or www.twoscompany.ie.
