Online Dating for Entrepreneurs

If your bid to attract a mate mirrors your bid for a contract for tender, then your online dating profile needs revamping. Yes you are smart, accomplished and titled, a whiz at luring investors, an ace at pitching to new potential clients, you are even good at loading the copier when the secretary’s out for lunch – but all those skills are unlikely to help you land a date.

Though online dating has allowed busy bees like yourself the convenience of meeting new people without the hassle of trolling seedy bars, or dawdling at the fruit stand hoping for a romantic chance encounter, it still requires some of the same courtesies that deliver success in “ordinary” dating. Put your best and most attractive face forward, don’t over share, don’t seem too desperate, etc.
