About Start
The Pink Academy is an organization that enables women to run their own successful business through training, certification, and business setup so they can become independent entrepreneurs with a high and secure income. All the training is done online through our website thepinkacademy.org. We go a few steps past training and offer our candidates a complete business setup. This includes having a marketing plan and a fully functional business website ready for each candidate. Once they complete their training and certification, their business is up and running.
The Matchmaker Business Plan is a 4-week intensive program to fund, certify, train, and setup an independent matchmaker with a running business. Please refer to the Matchmaker Program page for complete information.
The Pink Academy currently offers training and certification for women aiming to become matchmakers. We are focusing on matchmaking for 2 reasons: it is the most lucrative career with the least effort for independent entrepreneurs, and, because of the Covid pandemic, it does not require much person-to-person interaction.
We believe that every woman should have a chance at success. This is why our candidates pay NO FEES or anything else. Instead, we run a sponsorship program to cover the basic costs of the training and business development, plus an additional $1000 at least as pocket cash for the candidate. So the sponsors pay all the dues of the candidates. To thank their sponsors for their support, candidates offer them unique rewards related to matchmaking
Sponsors pay for the costs and startup funds of candidates. Some of those sponsors are friends and family members who want to support the candidates. Others are prospective clients who are sponsoring the candidate in return for rewards such as discounted matchmaking services. The sponsorship program is an excellent way for candidates so start building their client base.
Currently, for our Matchmaker Program, we are accepting only select candidates from the USA and Canada. We would love to accept everyone. Unfortunately, our resources are limited and we have to be selective.
We train our candidates well and give them an effective step-by-step marketing plan to follow for getting clients quickly. Therefore, we limit the number of candidates in a geographic area so that they do not end up competing against each other for clients. By limiting the number of candidates to 10 in a city, we ensure that each candidate has a fair share of clients to make a 6-figure income yearly.
It is difficult to come up with a specific number because it depends on the city as well as the social skills of the matchmaker. ZipRecruiter lists the average salary for a matchmaker as US$60,185/year. However, this is for matchmakers who work as employees for companies, so it is much less than an independent matchmaker can earn. Paysa lists the average income for independent matchmakers as US$122,592. Shmoop.com says that more successful matchmakers charge an average of $25,000 per client and net at least $250,000 a year. Most of the candidates who successfully completed our Matchmaker Program are averaging over US$10,000 a month although they are still in their first year of business.
The curriculum covers topics related to dating, finding the right clients, and running a business. It includes:
  • Branding and reputation management
  • Social media networking
  • Identifying your market and client needs
  • Client recruiting techniques
  • Vetting clients
  • Psychology of dating
  • Interviewing clients
  • Coaching clients
  • Working with impatient clients
  • Setting up services and fees
You do the training at home. We will send you easy-to-follow text workbooks and guides for each topic.
Sponsors pay for the costs and startup funds of candidates. Some of those sponsors are friends and family members who want to support the candidates. Others are prospective clients who are sponsoring the candidate in return for rewards such as discounted matchmaking services. The sponsorship program is an excellent way for candidates so start building their client base.
It is the candidate's responsibility to deliver the rewards offered to her sponsors. The default rewards made available by The Pink Academy (relationship guides and e-books) will be delivered automatically by our system through email to the sponsor as soon as a sponsorship payment is completed.
The Pink Academy offers refunds to sponsors for rewards that have not been delivered in the case where the candidate does not complete the first phase of her certification (the sponsorship program) and does not raise the funds needed to proceed. Refunds are applied directly to the credit card or PayPal account of the sponsor without the sponsor having to request a refund.
The Pink Academy cannot guarantee rewards because they are the responsibility of the candidates to deliver. A candidate will not receive her certification or business setup until rewards are delivered in full. So there is a very strong incentive for a candidate to deliver the rewards. The Pink Academy has been in business since 2019. As of July 1, 2020, the only candidates who did not deliver on their rewards were the few one who did not complete their sponsorship program or certification program. In those cases, we offered a complete refund to the sponsors as per our refund policy.
The Pink Academy is open to women in limited locations in the USA and Canada. We operate in a limited number of cities and we accept not more than 10 candidates per city. For this reason, every profile is subject to the approval of The Pink Academy.
Your biggest sponsors will be men who are hoping to become your clients. They will sponsor you in return for discounted matchmaking services. However, family, friends, fans, and the communities you're a part of will likely be some of your earliest supporters, and they will be your biggest resource for spreading the word about you.
Your rewards are listed on your profile. A sponsor clicks on a reward and pays for it through PayPal to sponsor you. This money is collected by The Pink Academy and credited to your account with us. Once the sponsorship phase is complete (2 weeks), $2,500 is deducted to cover the cost of your training, certification, and business setup. The remainder of the sponsorship fund (usually $1,000-$5,000) is paid to you through PayPal. This money is yours to do with as you please.
Yes, the maximum reward for sponsorship is capped at $1,000.
Sponsorship funding are capped at around $10,000. The main purpose of The Pink Academy is training, certification, and business setup. $10,000 is more than enough to achieve that. While some of our candidates are very popular and easily approach $10,000 in less than the 2 weeks allocated for funding, we prefer that any financial activity over that amount be done through business transactions between clients and the matchmaker once her business is setup.
