Permaculture Singles Matchmaking

Hey Permies,  It's been over 4 years since I registered the domain permaculturesingles.com with the intent to start a matchmaking business.  The need for matchmaking services keeps becoming more dire in our society.  I'm throwing this post up real quick to get some feedback if a) you'd like this service or b) you'd like to help provide this service.  Thanks,  Bill

Yes, I might be interested to patronize such a business.

Before duplicating efforts, I would wonder what this website or service would add to the world of permaculture singles that this forum is not already satisfying! Personally, I like the simple and accessible design of this website, and the integration of the singles forum with the many permaculture message boards.

The idea is to provide an affordable one-on-one matchmaking service vs initiating communication on your own.

Thanks for the feedback.  We'll see if I can gain some traction and plan a launch.

Here is a payment structure breakdown of my idea.

Permaculture Singles is a $100 anual membership.

Of the $100, 80% goes to the matchmaker that intakes the client.

Remaing 8% goes to Paul, and 12% to me.

I am head matchmaker and will intake the first 100 clients.

Matchmakers will be selected. The first 10 intakes are unpaid and counted as cost of entering as a matchmaker.

There will be an advertising budget that comes out of my income.

I hope this sounds interesting to some Permies.

Thanks,  Bill

I'm not your target, so there's no particular need to satisfy me, but I've read this pretty carefully and I really have no idea what you're proposing except in the vaguest of terms.

Maybe spell it out in detail what this is, who would be involved, and what exactly they would do?

Hey,  I wanted to update real quick.  This endeavor, in true permaculture form is all about the manual.  The manual will explain who this is for, and will include a self assessment.  The manual could be a stand alone book and I am considering releasing the manual before launching the service.  I've been trying to embrace writing over the past few years.  I think Paul could be a big help in writing the Permaculture Singles manual.  Post here if you'd like to see me and Paul co-author the Permaculture Singles manual.

I am super interested in reading the manual! Sounds like a really cool addition to the community.
