Are you a busy executive trying to keep pace? The explosion of the internet and online dating offers a world of opportunities to the busy executive. Whether you are getting back in the game or just continuing with your search for the perfect date, on-line dating can be a wonderful resource. It can also become a full time job.
That is where I come in. My name is Elizabeth and I would like to be your Wingman. As such I will make your streamline your online dating life by helping you with your profile, completing searches for the perfect date and screening perspective woman. Here is a closer look at what I do:

Today I would like to start at the beginning, your profile. Your profile is your introduction, you only have one chance to make a first impression. Treat your profile as a resume, give details about yourself (please be accurate), list some qualifications and BRIEFLY describe what you are looking for. You are applying for the job. Be thoughtful about what you are saying about yourself and your prospective date. Would you write a cover letter to a prospective employer outlining what they better be or not be? For example would say, NO Drama in a cover a letter? You would not so please let's refrain from doing so on your online dating profile.
Here are just a couple suggestions.
1. Your tagline, these are just a few I have read that are beyond horrible: ontheprowl (he was 70), hoosier, Saxsells, Cycleman, Yankees49, Forest_Stump. Not one of these names work. Keep it simple for example Jacknyc, or Midtownmark. Others I like Iwillcommit.
2. Be accurate in your description. If you are 5'7" do not say you are 6'. Toned and athletic, this refers to currently, not when you were in college. The whole idea is for you to meet, you do not want her to be disappointed from the start.
3. What you are looking for is meant to be your opportunity to say why you are online. So a good answer would be either someone for fun and adventure or someone to simply enjoy dinners and travel. This is not opportunity to give a laundry list of qualities she must have. I have read so many profiles where men demand she be gorgeous, blonde, perfect figure, beautiful face, all natural and requiring no maintenance whatsoever. This is completely unrealistic. Would you write that in a cover letter to a prospective employer? I think not.
4. Your primary profile picture. I clear headshot of you in a suit from this decade would be best. No naked shots, no shots of you in lycra with a bike helmet on (no one looks good in bike helmet and lycra). No shots in your favorite team shirt, no shots of you with another woman. Regarding additional photos, sure a picture of you at the game is fine. You should keep the shots with you not in them to a minimum. If I want to see pictures of the Eiffel Tower, I will google them.
This is a good start. My goal is to help you streamline the online dating process. As such, I can search for you, I will contact prospective dates and prescreen them. But if your profile is not up to par, they are not going to respond.
So it starts with your profile. I hope this was helpful. Please contact me at: www.Wingmannyc.com if you would like to use my services.
Best regards,
Elizabeth
