但是,现在的首要任务是增加人手。包括巴亚德和弗兰斯在内,SINGLDOUT现在只有五名员工。本周二,这家八个月前成立的新公司宣布获得50万美元的种子基金。(该公司表示,基于保密协议他们不方便透露投资者姓名。)一旦掌握了更清晰的会员增长情况,SINGLDOUT计划在2017年1月招聘新员工。
France and Jayad, who gave their ages as “35 to 40,” met last winter at a coffeehouse in San Diego. France, a professional white-glove matchmaker, was shopping for her clients and thought Jayad might be a good fit for one of them. Jayad, who had tried and grew tried of online dating, took her up on the meeting. However, they quickly fell into a conversation about the pitfalls of online dating. “We found that people belong to all of these different sites, and, while it opens up the pool for them, it wasn’t really solving anything,” says France. They saw an opportunity to incorporate science to increase the odds for couples before they even decided to go on a date and SINGLDOUT was born. However, they have yet to take SINGLDOUT’s tests to see if they really are strong prospects for a successful long-term business partnership.
据巴亚德和弗兰斯介绍,二人年龄都在35到40岁之间。去年冬天,两人结识于圣地亚哥(San Diego)的一家咖啡店。弗兰斯是一名服务周到的红娘,当时正在为客户寻觅合适人选。她觉得巴亚德和自己的某位顾客很般配,但是巴亚德却对在线交友深感厌倦,拒绝了弗兰斯的好意。不过,两人随后谈起了网络交友的陷阱问题。“我们发现有些人同时使用几个不同的交友网站,虽然网站提供了交友平台,却并没有真正地解决任何问题,”弗兰斯说。于是他们发现了一个商机:在会员决定是否约会前,先通过科技手段来提高配对概率。于是,SINGLDOUT应运而生。不过,他们还要对SINGLDOUT进行测试,看它是否有足够的长期发展潜力。
