How many clients do you have in my desired age range and gender specification?

• We have hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of members at each location, so we’re certain to have numerous members meeting your personal specifications.

What statistical information do you have about your client base?

• Our membership makeup is 53% female and 47% male. Although this number is never constant, it seldom varies more than two or three percent either way.
• 50% of all members are between the ages of 30 and 44 years of age;
• Membership age range is between 21 and 87.
• 66% engage in professional, managerial, or other white collar professions
• 50% of all members have annual earnings in excess of $40,000
• 33% of all members have annual earnings in excess of $50,000

What can I expect?

Our ten-step process is key to matching you with someone special. From the initial interview through the conclusion of your membership, you can expect:

• To be treated with respect
• To meet new friends (and companions!)
• To receive honest feedback and assistance from
  our consultants.

Is there a fee for your services?

• Yes. Together® offers several membership options—which means our prices vary. We don’t want members who aren’t serious about meeting someone special or who aren’t willing to put energy into the process. There are plenty of inexpensive options for dating dabblers. We want your experience to be safe, positive, and productive. Your satisfaction with our programs and service is critical.

How many matches are promised and over what period of time?

• This depends which membership option you select. We have several program options to choose from.

Are there any guarantees should I not be satisfied with the service?

• Together® is so confident in its ability to match compatible singles, we provide additional referrals if you’re not satisfied with our service.

Are there expectations that you have for me?

• Yes. Our years of experience have shown us that the most successful matches happen when members have:

• A positive attitude
• Realistic expectations
• A willingness to cooperate with our consultants.

How do you look for new members?

• Some people accuse us of being "everywhere." But, to keep our membership pool "fresh" and current, we market ourselves extensively. Expect to find us in the papers, on television, on the radio, on billboards, and street signs. Plus, we market via brochures, flyers, posters, the internet, and telemarketing. We also offer referral rewards to members who refer someone new.

Do you give references of other members?

• We always maintain a list of individuals who are willing to share their story about Together®. Because of our high level of confidentiality though, we never provide any information about members unless we have their written permission. Stop by our office and look at our book of couples who have given permission for us to tell their story. You’ll be amazed.

What are your policies on confidentiality? How is my privacy protected?

• The only way someone else will get your name is when we’re making a referral. We never give members’ names out to anyone else. In fact, when we send referrals, we mail them in plain envelopes so that no one knows who is sending the envelope. And, should we ever need to contact your via the phone, we’ll only identify ourselves as "Membership Services." That way others won’t know we’re calling.

What are your safety policies.

• Our feedback procedure provides our consultants with the ability to carefully monitor the behavior of our members. Disruptive or inappropriate behavior by any member is grounds for membership termination.

How do I know the other members are really single or serious about meeting me?

• It is important to understand that not every member is looking for the same type of relationship that you might be. Initially, many come to us because they are tired of the "search" for someone who enjoys the same things they do. They may simply want to meet someone they can "date" and enjoy being with. If it develops into more, that’s okay too. Others know before they ever join that they are ready for a more serious relationship. Our consultants understand these qualities and work with each member to achieve the type of relationship that he or she wants.

What happens if a member doesn’t conduct himself or herself in an appropriate manner?

• There’s an old baseball phrase that applies to men or women who fail to conduct themselves appropriately. To quote an umpire who has witnessed a major infraction… "You’re outta here!" We will never tolerate members who aren’t doing what’s right.

What areas do you serve? Can I define my geographical parameters?

• Our national map tells the story. With our franchises expanding across the United States we’re becoming even more accessible. Plus, with our 80 offices and affiliates we cover more territory than any other introduction service in the world.
• When meeting with a consultant, you can define the parameters of our search. Some individuals want to date only those people who live within 20 miles of their home. Others choose to widen the field and expand the boundaries of our search. Either way, it’s your decision.

How large is the company?

• We’re the largest introduction service in the world. We currently have over 80 independently owned locations and affiliates throughout North America. And we’re growing. So if you’re interested in becoming professionally involved with a successful company, contact us about becoming a franchisee.

How is this singles organization different from others?

• We have more than 25 years of experience, more than 80 locations and affiliates across the country, are held in high regard by our peers, and know that a large percentage of our membership come to us through personal referrals of others who have been through the program. Our consultants are a key component, as are our trained group of "matchmakers" who know what traits and compatibility factors lead to a good relationship.
