I truly believe that being a shadchan is a job that is not shown enough hakoras hatov.Being a shadchan when i started 8 month ago,i was putting in 3 hours a day .Today i am putting in 12 hours a day.My main job that i was doing was not making me enough of a parnasah and i had to think of other ways.Being very good in dealing with people i B”H was zoche to make a number of shiduchim.I would like to make this a full time job,and to be able to meet all my clients and to return all phone calls which untill now i have been able to.The only way that i can do this is by having an income coming in.I propose certain things and i would like to hear from you if you agree with me.I would like to charge $100 for receiving resume together with first meeting of client.I would request for every date that they go out $200 which means $100 from each side.How much to charge for the shidduch is very hard to say,but it should be a minimum of $25oo -$5000 per side if they can afford it.I am trying to run it like a buisness where i can give my time and experience and give kovod to the families the right way .I have done over 30 shiduchim and believe me it is alot of work.ofcourse it is also a great feeling and a zechus ,but you cant pay bills with a great feeling.Please respond with your opinion. Thanks
