Educated singles Educated people are often very busy people. Busy with a career that often involves a lot of traveling and long working hours.This is one of the main reasons why so many well educated people are single today.And when the singles want to mingle they want to do it with like-minded people. This community is for them.

Page 3: Ambassadors program

What we offerWe have tailor-made a community to the well-educated and well-travelled single.

With a focus on quality and service over quantity we have a different business model than most other communities. It costs money from day one. This enable us to develop a community - both in cyberspace and in major cities around the world that is characterised by a high degree of mutual commitment, integrity and a general willingness to spend money on the services offered.

Our users enjoy the finer things in life, which means we have excellent opportunities for promoting high-end consumer goods, cultural events, exclusive travel offerings, education etc. We will also have the opportunity to promote initiatives of global concern like global warming and human rights.

So not only will we be a global community of educated people - we will also create a moral and ethical profile people can either relate to or distance themselves from. Integrity is the important matter here.

Some would argue; why mix business with politics? My answer to that is: Money comes with passion and integrity - not prostitution.

I am sure you will like the concept and we are looking forward to welcoming you as ambassador

The projectWe are creating a community for well-educated singles with strong presence in both cyberspace and in major city hubs abound the world.

In CyberspaceOn the internet we will offer a dating- and social community portal exclusively for the members of Educated Singles. Unlike most other dating portals there are no free rides here. The minimum monthly charge is 10€. Apart from securing a positive cash-flow it more importantly eliminates all the fake scam profiles you see on most other portals and it will enable us to continuously develop new services and expand the business.Apart from the dating- and social community portal we will add internet based services like:

Coaching (email, blogging or telephone)Career developmentPersonal profilingCharity opportunities

In Real LifeWe want to benefit from the synergies between a strong internet based global community and real-life events and offerings to our members. The real-life components could be:

Single-parties in major city hubs, resorts or on cruise ships around the worldCultural events like theaters, concerts etc.Personal development coursesGolf tournaments.Discounts on hotels, restaurants etcAn academy offering further educationA quarterly magazine exclusively for the members with world-class articles, reviews, event announcements etc.

The constant feedback from the members and other stakeholders is essential. The services will be developed as the number of members grow and we get the feedback on the initiatives.

Mutual obligationsBecoming an ambassador for educated singles is not only a fun and attractive way of making money. It is more importantly a way of meeting new people, bring them together and use your skills and creativity to create events that will attract even more users.

We acknowledge your drive, skills and creativity as it is essential to our global growth. You will be the only ambassador within the area we agree upon and we will together set up performance measures covering new members, events, customer satisfaction etc.

In return for this exclusivity we ask you to pay an entry fee to become an ambassador. This fee will be returned to you when you reach your target for year one. The fee is calculated as 15% of the first year commission target. So if we agree that you can make 20.000€ in commission the first year you will pay 3.000€ to Educated Singles.

This ensures us that you are committed and motivated and it guarantees you the exclusivity within the geographical area we have agreed on.

Niche Dating Sites Grow Steadily As Mainstream Ones Failvia TechCrunch by Mark Brooks on 4/24/08This post was written by guest contributor Mark Brooks, an analyst/consultant whose blog Online Personals Watch summarizes the daily internet dating industry news.

In the internet dating space, bigger is not always best. According to the latest U.S. numbers from Hitwise, the top niche dating sites are steadily gaining market share while their big mainstream counterparts stagnate.

We compared the overall dating market share of the top 5 sites - Singlesnet, Plentyoffish, TRUE, Yahoo Personals and Match - to the market share of several top niche sites to see how their growth rates compared. In March 2008, the top 5 overall sites held 7% less market share than they did one year ago (Plentyoffish and Singlesnet were the only sites to buck this trend individually). Meanwhile, the top sites from the top five major niche dating categories made considerable gains, with the gay dating and religious dating categories growing the fastest.

Itʼs apparent that a growing proportion of users is looking for more focused experiences with those who share particular interests and desires; this despite the fact that users can find more fish in the proverbial sea at mainstream sites.

The particular interests mainly relate to sexual preferences, races, and religions. Top sites include Adam4Adam, Manhunt, Gay.com for homosexuals; BlackPeopleMeet, BlackSingles, BlackChristianPeopleMeet for African Americans; and ChristianMingle, JDate, and Christian Café for the religiously-oriented.

Another top niche - and the biggest niche in terms of total traffic - is casual dating, which consists of sites like Fling, AdultFriendFinder, and SexSearch. Although Iʼm not sure casual dating can really be called a niche. As Adam Small, CMO of SexSearch has put it bluntly: “Our target market is anyone over the age of 21 who is interested in sex, which is almost everybody.”

Casual (or “adult”) dating sites are the antithesis of eHarmony and are definitely not focused on helping people find long-term relationships. Instead, they help the more “casually inclined” to find the people who fit their specific physical and sexual preferences. Very specific preferences in some cases.

These casual sites have shown solid gains in the internet market as a whole. While the top 10 mainstream dating sites gained only 0.01% of total Internet traffic over the past year, the top three casual adult sites gained 0.07%. Thatʼs a hefty 56% increase in the traffic to adult dating sites, although itʼs important to remember that smaller sites have an easier time showing big gains in their traffic.
