Just whip up a slide deck showing why your buddy is a total catch. The more creative, the better!

All your single friend needs to do is show up with a smile and their killer personality. Who knows? Their love story could kick off with your pitch. :P

Here's an example:

Once the pitches are over, there's a singles mixer where everyone can mingle and make connections

Plus, there's a friendly competition with a prize for the best pitch of the night. At the last event, the winning duo snagged two tickets to Velvet Cinema, GSC's luxury experience.

To make things easier, the singles mixer features curated date decks placed around the room to spark conversations. These cards are designed to prompt meaningful discussions and break the ice.

FindersKeepers hosted its first Date My Mate event in July, and it was a huge success — signups kept coming in even after the official closing date

Held at Sanctuary 38, a cosy cocktail bar in Desa Sri Hartamas, the event sold out all 50 slots. 

According to feedback, 90% of participants said they'd recommend Date My Mate to a friend, and many continued their conversations well after the event ended.

The first Date My Mate event was held on 20 July.

So, thanks to popular demand, Date My Mate is back this September.

"As long as there's demand, we'll keep bringing these events to the single community. 

"We think the concept stands out because, unlike typical singles mixers where everyone's a stranger, this event gives participants an insider's view. From watching the pitches, attendees already have a sense of who they might want to connect with," the matchmaking platform shared with SAYS.
