My name is Richard Nazar and I am determining the viability of an internet matchmaking service that I am planning on starting. I am doing the market research to determine if there is a need for such a business, and what features people want. I intend to make it a full service business, servicing people of all preferences, from "normal" everyday relationships, to various alternate lifestyles. I plan on adding on a line of greeting cards, gift items, etc, as a business need is shown. The site will have romantic and erotic stories, experiences and relationship/lifestyle advice. It will also help people deal with various issues to do with meeting someone on the Internet. Please complete the following questionnaire. You can either just reply to this posting, or email me at [email protected]. If you like, you can email me at [email protected] and I will email you the questionnaire.
