90 days may sound like too short a time to
find the perfect life partner. Liang Yali from China, believes
otherwise. She claims to have hit upon a formula that will be able to help
women find Mr. Right in just three months, with a money-back guarantee.
The service provided by Liang couldn’t have
come at a better time. Many Chinese women are of late finding it very difficult
to find a mate. In fact, the sixth national census found and reported that the
unmarried men in Shanghai are far outnumbered by unmarried women. The surplus
of women account for about 20% of the overall population of the city. In
such a scenario, it seems impossible that any kind of service could tip the
scales. After all, the numbers cannot be erased. However, Liang follows a
formula of a different kind. Instead of providing regular matchmaking services,
she focuses on the personalities of the women who take up her course.
Liang describes her company as an educational
institution. She says that they offer classes to help women understand
themselves better and build their confidence, enabling them to be more
outgoing. After this, good things, including marriage will happen once they
start coming out, according to Liang. In fact, she says that 60 percent of her
students from the previous year have already tied the knot. Liang herself
is married to American Kenneth Davis, who is also the company’s executive
director. She has an 18 year old daughter from a previous marriage. The courses
offered by the husband-wife duo seem to have gained quite a bit of popularity.
Hundreds of people signed up for the course during a promotional event in
Shanghai.
The courses start with a personal interview
of each client by Liang herself. She gets to understand each person, and then
suggests the level and type of course they need to be attending. Apart from
boosting confidence, the courses also help women on dealing with family crises,
keeping in-laws happy and creating a positive atmosphere for children to grow
in. At the end of the 90 days, she offers a 100% refund if the client happens
to be unhappy.
It is interesting to note that many former
students of the course have gone on to marry foreigners, including Germans,
French and Americans. Liang explains that this is a consequence of the age
group and lifestyle of the majority of women joining the courses. Most clients
are entrepreneurs or working women in their 30s and 40s, she says, and hence
find it difficult to get partners. To cater to such individuals, the course
offers an introduction to Western cultures as well.
Liang and her husband seem to have hit the
nail on the head here, providing a service that is apt to the changing times in
China. Earlier this year we wrote about a gold digger school that
promised to help young Chinese women find rich husbands, so they’re definitely
treating this marriage issue seriously…
