| frequently asked questions  

1. How is the service provided by Samantha's Table different from just going on a blind date that one of your friend's arranges?

        --The service provided by Samantha's Table is very different from the blind dates your friends arrange for you because I strategically choose the people who you will be dating after screening the many single people whom I know.  Your friends, on the other hand, tend to introduce you to people who are simply single and available and they spend very little time thinking about whether or not you have anything in common other than the fact that you are both single and looking to meet someone.

 

2. How is  the service provided by Samantha's Table  different from online dating?

        --The service provided by Samantha's Table is very different form online dating in that my service is very personalized.  I work as an intermediary between you and the people with whom you will be going on the dates with and I provide accurate and verified information about them. Given the fact that I get to know you, I choose people for you whom I think are appropriate for you.  With online dating, you, on your own, must verify that the people are who they say they are and you yourself must make the determination as to whether or not it makes sense to meet a specific person.  In addition, online dating can be time-consuming, whereas I spend time sifting through potential people for you, so you, as a busy professional can maximize your time.

 

3. How is  the service provided by Samantha's Table different from other Dating Services?

        --Samantha's Table is different from many other dating services in that I do not simply set the clients up with each other, I set my clients up with any single person with whom I come in contact whether or not they have enlisted my services or paid us money as long as I think the person would be appropriate.  In this way, I can use all  the country as a potential venue for finding appropriate dates for my clients.

 

4. Do "normal" people really use Matchmakers?

        --Matchmaking has become a very acceptable and "in vogue" way of meeting people.  My clients are very "normal", they are attractive, intelligent, successful, interesting, and social.  They date a lot and often but they are also very busy with work and with hobbies so they are choosing to maximize their time by hiring a professional to help them locate their mate. 

 

5. Where do you find the people who I go on my dates with?

            --I find the dates for my clients anywhere and everywhere I go.  I attend charity events, art openings, restaurant and store openings, fashion events, cocktail parties in an effort to find appropriate dates for my clients.  I put out "feelers" to friends and friends of friends for certain types of people that have been requested by my clients. And I approach interesting, attractive people that I see in my everyday lives like at the health club, in the Doctor's office or in an office building in an effort to locate the right people for my clients.

 

6.  How do people who are not clients feel about going out on dates with ymy clients?

         --Samantha's Table has been in business for close to nine  years. In this time, I have sent out thousands of dates  in and around the NY and LA area and have helped countless people get into meaningful, long-term relationships.  As a result, almost everyone in these cities has already experienced a Samantha's Table date or has a friend who has gone out on one of my dates. and "survived it".  Hence, people are flattered and excited to be asked to go out with one of my clients as they know from personal experience that my clients are interesting, attractive and very desirable.

 

7.  Is there a particular religion you work with?

            --I work with all religions.  If you are interested in only dating people of your own religion, this is fine.  And if you are not particular as to the religion of the person you are dating, I can accommodate this as well. The key is that I can provide the type of people you want to meet.

 

9.  What if I don't live in NY or LA?

            --If you do not live in  NY or LA, you can still work with me. I offer two options for this:

                        (1) You can become a "Bi-city client."  I have many clients who do not live in NY or LA full-time yet come through one of the two cities regularly for business or personal reasons. These clients are interested in being introduced to people in NY or LA because their life is such that meeting their significant other in NY or LA could work for them.  In this instance, I would make introductions for you according to your travel schedule when you are in town and I would introduce you to people who have a flexible lifestyle and who are open to the possibility of being in a relationship that takes place in several cities and/or ultimately relocating for the right person.

                        (2) I can do a "Hometown Search" for you. This option works Ill for someone who does not come to NY or LA regularly but who nonetheless would like to work directly with me. In a "hometown search," I come to where you live and actually customize a database of eligible people for you. I do strategic and discreet outreach for you to identify the people in your greater hometown area (you and I will decide how far the reach will go) who closely match the criteria you are looking for in a mate. These searches are very effective because the database has been created just for you, keeping in mind who you are as an individual, your lifestyle and the type of people you are look to date.

 

10.  Do you take every person who contacts you as a client?

            --My service is very popular. I get contacted by close to200 people every week who are interested in becoming clients. I make sure that when I take on a client that I will be able to provide them with the type of people that they are interested in meeting.  Therefore, I do in fact turn down many prospective clients if I think that their expectations are not reasonable.

"I have always been so busy with my career that I found myself having very little time to search for my mate. Then I spoke to Samantha. She got to know me, and it seems really understand me because she helped me find the woman I am marrying this fall!"
