8. What if I don't live in NY or LA?

       --If you do not live in NY or LA, you can still work with Samantha. She offers two options for this:

(1) You can become a "Bi-city client." Samantha has 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, Samantha would make introductions for you according to your travel schedule when you are in town and she 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) Samantha can do a "Hometown Search" for you. This option works for someone who does not come to NY or LA regularly but who nonetheless would like to work directly with Samantha. In a "hometown search," Samantha will come to where you live and actually customize a database of eligible people for you. She will do strategic and discreet outreach for you to identify the people in your greater hometown area (you and Samantha 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.

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

       --Samantha's service is very popular. She gets contacted by close to 200 people every week who are interested in becoming clients. Samantha makes sure that when she takes on a client that she will be able to provide them with the type of people that they are interested in meeting. Therefore, Samantha does in fact turn down many prospective clients if she thinks that their expectations are not reasonable.
