  • Editor, Photographer, Online Dating Consultant

    Online Profile Editor

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Writing and Editing industry)

    December 2007Present (8 months)

    Tell me if you know of someone who is not having any luck with online dating.

    What makes me unique is the impressive list of testimonials for my rewritten profiles. I can consistently write a top 1% highly accurate Internet dating profile.

    Women get too many replies from creeps. Men get neither the replies nor the first contact e-mail.

    * Rewrite your profile to highlight your unique traits and using your own personal style
    * Find your best look
    * Take new hot pictures
    * Identify, modify, and post existing pictures to complement the text
    * Coach you how to write e-mails that will capture his or her attention

    While my profiles are consistently considered among the best, my pictures also tend to get rated very highly. If the picture is not rated 8 or above, it'll typically get skipped due to the large number of potential matches.

    The fee for the first hour is only $120. One hour is all it takes to change someone's luck in love. Won’t you help them? :)

  • CEO, Consultant

    Crashproof Solutions, LLC

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Information Technology and Services industry)

    January 2000Present (8 years 7 months)

    At Crashproof Solutions, we enable businesses to survive the failure of computer systems with no impact.

    That means that if your desktop or laptop fails, it won't matter. If your server fails, we can rebuild it very quickly in under 1 hour with minimal or no data loss, depending on the budget. We implement hot failover solutions to completely eliminate server failure.

    Getting to this point takes time. We analyze a customer's business plan, figure out how to streamline it and align with current technologies, and then implement an appropriate high availability solution.

    We offer 100% financing for our solutions through Microsoft.

    Areas of expertise include - Microsoft Exchange, Windows Mobile, Windows Server, Office 2007, Outlook, and others.

    If you need a computer solution, we can probably either do it ourselves or recommend someone in our network.
