1. Does It Matter How I Look To Latin Women?

    What The Other Latin Mail Order Brides Agencies Will Tell You

    "Hispanic women have very little interest in how handsome you are"
    "Latin women are not overly concerned about his physical appearance, age or social status."
    "Looks are not important to Colombian women."
    "When a Colombian women meets an American man she is 9 times out of 10 attracted to him no matter what he looks like."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    Latin America is not another world where the rules of attraction do not apply. Competition does not vanish in South America. You are competing with other men just as you do in America. Your advantage is that you are a much stronger candidate than your local equivalent; and since very few American men are aware of this option your opportunity for success is much greater. The other Latin mail order brides agencies will have you believe you can get anyone you want; this is not true. Without a doubt you can do better but your qualities determine how much better. Physical appearance does factor in. Yet I have never met an American man with a Latin American bride who did not agree that he could never get a quality of woman like this at home.

  2. Does It Matter How Old I Am To Latinas?

    What The Other Latin Mail Order Brides Agencies Will Tell You

    "Many of these Latin women prefer older mature men who may be double their age or more."
    "Your looks, age and race aren't important to Colombian women."
    "In most cases, your age or looks is not a primary concern to South American women."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    This is not true. Your age and looks will be the first two things they evaluate. The younger you look, the better looking you are and the more qualities you have will dictate how young you can go. What is true is you can generally knock another ten years off the minimum age you could attract at home. If you are 40 and able to date local women as young as 32 years old than you should have no problem finding an even better looking 22 year old Latin bride. Yes, the degree of beauty will also substantially improve. An American version of Karina would not notice my existence while a Latina Karina finds me quite exceptional, yet I'm a typical guy. An average man with average qualities will have no problem attracting a very good-looking Latin wife. Believe me, the difficulty will not be finding your level of Karina but trying to select from the multitudes of Karina's that will express an interest.

  3. Does My Income Matter To Colombian Women?

    What The Other Latin Marriage Agencies Will Tell You

    "Colombian women… are not interested in your looks, muscles or wallet!"
    "The Latin women do not care if you are filthy rich or just a plain John Doe."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    If you are an average American you're already considered "filthy rich". Most Latin American women live in conditions that you would not find acceptable. The monthly minimum wage is less than what many Americans make in a day. It will be impossible for you to be considered "plain."

  4. Does Her Income Matter?

    What The Other Colombian Mail Order Brides Services Will Tell You

    "The earning power of a Colombian wife is very good."

    What My Experience With Barranquilla Women Will Tell You

    While Colombian women have a good work ethic and learn responsibilities early in life, you should anticipate one to two years of full financial support as your Colombian bride adjusts to life in the U.S. You should have a clear understanding of what both your economic roles will be. Most foreign Latin brides will prefer to be primarily housewives and mothers while others will want to work.

  5. What Is The Male To Female Ratio?

    What The Other South American Mail Order Brides Agencies Will Tell You

    "The women to men ratio in Colombia is five Colombian women to one Colombian man."
    "Reports range from 3-6 Colombian women for every man."
    "So the fact is, there are not enough men in Colombia…"
    "Here in Barranquilla, the women greatly out number the men 3 to 1."
    "Colombian… women greatly out number the men."
    "With the Latina women outnumbering the men 3 to 1 due to multiple state drafts."
    "Colombia is one of the countries with the largest percentages of single women of the world, approximately 11 to 1 ratio…"

    What The Laws Of Nature Will Tell You

    They must have done their census count in the women's restroom. Outside the ladies room, the ratio of women to men for both the U.S. and Colombia is about 100 women for every 98 men. And believe me, those "extra" women are not in the age range you or I would want to marry.

  6. What Is The Latin Woman's Motivation?

    What The Other MailOrderBrides Services Will Tell You

    "These women are not looking to escape their countries since many of them are professionals or have good jobs."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    Colombia is no paradise for Latin women. Unemployment is often over 20%. The educated are usually underemployed. The poverty level is over 50%. Crime is high, and the Latin man is typically unfaithful. It is these conditions that present opportunities unavailable to you in the U.S. While foreign Spanish women are not looking to jump the boat, because they know of no other conditions, they are receptive to exploring a long-range romance leading to marriage. The key word is romance. Yes, they want a better life and brighter future, as do you; but not without the romance and passion from a good, loving, respectful husband.

  7. Are The Hispanic Women Screened?

    What The Other Latina Mail Order Brides Services Will Tell You

    "…we recruit women through a rigorous screening and selection process…"
    "We have a complete file on all of our female members- no prostitutes or undesirables in our membership."
    "Every girl has been screened and qualified."
    "We work hard daily filtering out the undesirables…"
    "We interview every lady in order to weed out the Gold Diggers, Happy Time Girls, Visa Hunters."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    I wonder how that interview would go.
    Interviewer: "Lady are you a no good happy time, visa hunting, undesirable gold digger?"
    Lady: "No"
    Interviewer: "Congratulations. You have passed our rigorous screening and selection process!"

    Believe me, the other mailorderbrides services do not screen their employees, let alone the Latin women. Discovering one's content and character is a communication process best found by regular letter writing and conversations. We therefore leave the screening up to you, unless you have a particular request for us to be involved. Our Custom Request services are outlined. Fortunately, it is rare to meet an insincere Latin American woman.


  8. Do The Latin American Women Speak English?

    What The Other Latin Dating Sites Will Tell You

    "Many of these Hispanic ladies speak some English."
    "Most of Colombian ladies speak enough English to get things started."
    "…we can say that 40% of our Latina ladies have a perfect knowledge of the English language."
    "…15 to 30 percent of the Latin ladies speak a little English."
    "60% speak some English."

    What My Experience With Colombian Women Will Tell You

    All this is true to the extent that when you order a fajita you're speaking some Spanish. The truth is very few Latin American women speak any English, which is why we provide an accurate full circle translation service for both telephone conversations and written correspondences. If you meet up with a Latina that speaks English that is great. Both of you can quickly be on your own and will not need our translation services. But for most of you the convenience and clarity of our timely translation exchange will be the best way to insure what you say is understood. The "Final comments" section of each woman's photo profile indicates who can speak English.


  9. Is Translation Software Acceptable?

    What The Other Foreign Bride Agencies Will Tell You

    "…with the $49 & up packages, we will give you access to translation software. Just type it in and Voila! - A perfect translation."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    Translation software is inadequate for anything more than tidbits of information. You'll get a fuzzy picture but the intended words are likely to be misinterpreted. You can check this out yourself; there are many free translation software packages on the Web. With translation software you will not be able to exchange accurate adult communications which is why we provide a personal translator fluent in both Spanish and English. We can help, it's what we do.

  10. Does Writing Work?

    From A Latin Marriage Agency Selling "Marriage Tours"

    "Most of the time, writing to the women does not work."

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    This is flagrantly wrong. It should be obvious by now that most international introduction services do not have your best interest in mind. Women love personal correspondences. When distance is involved writing is critical to establishing and maintaining a bond. Words reveal shared values and goals, compatibility and mutual interest - the ingredients for a long-term commitment. A well-written introduction is your best first step to opening her heart and until you are together, ongoing correspondences are your best way to keep it.

  11. Writing Tips That Will Get Her Attention

    Your first letter should be a short, friendly, confident one-page or less introduction written in Spanish. Tell them a little about what you do, where you live, how old you are and some general information of your interest and goals. Avoid too much detail in the beginning, just present a few highlights and keep it humble. She does not need to know about your possessions or income. Be funny, Latin women have a good appreciation for American humor but limit your humor to one or two points or they may not think you are serious. Avoid jokes that play on words. Humor is good, but jokes usually don't work.

    Be positive and polite; do not overwhelm them with complications, problems or topics they might not be familiar with. Make sure you indicate why you are writing. They will want to know what in particular attracted your attention but try not to say the obvious; be creative with your complements. Point out something others might not see. Saying "you're beautiful" to a beautiful girl doesn't mean much when everyone else is saying the same thing. Latin American women have pride; do not say anything negative about their Country. Remain courteous and avoid negative comments about your past relationships. End your letter with two or three meaningful questions, thank her for her time and tell her you would welcome hearing back from her.

    For future letters, focus more attention on her; do not talk just about yourself. Write on subjects that are important to you and find out what is important to her. Answer all of her questions and write back to her as soon as possible; a fast turn around tells her you have a high interest.
    It is very important that you email one good, current, clear picture. Two or three would be better. Look confident, smile and demonstrate your good nature. Look safe and reputable; she does not need to see you in front of your gun collection or behind your bulldogs. Dress properly– if your shirt is not on be at the beach or at the pool, not in your living room. Looking normal and stable is a good thing. Latin American women are not looking for extravagance. Remember these Spanish ladies are looking for standard husband material.


  12. How Quickly Will I Get A Response?

    What Latin Dating Services Will Tell You

    "If you have not received satisfactory responses, within a reasonable time, (60 days) please let us know."
    "It usually takes between 7 to 10 days to get a letter there and 8 to 11 days to send a reply back to the US."
    "Usually it takes from 10-15 days to arrive to destination."
    "Your letters and gifts will be delivered directly to the ladies of your choice within 10-14 days!?"
    "Our best advice is to be patient."

    What We Will Do For You
    You can deal with their concept of time, Siestaville, or our commitment to follow up with the recipient within three days of receiving your email. All emails are translated and electronically distributed to the recipient within 24 hours.


  13. Is Membership Required?

    What The Other Latin Mail Order Brides Sites Will Tell You

    "You must be a member."
    "Join Now! Benefits of Membership: More Photos, Complete Profile, Email Service."
    "Life time Membership $695" "Gold Membership (for one year) $595 USD" "$299 Three Months Membership" "$495.00 Agency (1) Year Membership" "$495 membership" "Life-Time Membership $349" "1 year Full Gold Membership: US $395.00" "Senior Membership ($975)" "Lifetime Membership $795.00"

    What's Best For You
    The other Latin mail order brides agencies obviously plan on you being around for a while; we deliver a faster approach. International Introductions give you all the benefits without the fee obligations and duration of a membership. We do need to lock you in with a membership; our services stand on their own. Since we're not a club, we'd rather you join with your new Latin wife, not with us.

    "Marriage Tours":
    (Where they crowd you in a room with 25 other guys, half that many translators and you compete for 300 plus Latin women. Like it matters if there's 300 or 400 you don't have time to meet more than a half dozen or so anyway.)
    "Airfare from Miami, nine nights and three socials $2,495."
    "$595.00 covers 1 full day with our agent in Tegucigalpa, Honduras and 5 personal introductions"
    "Two socials and a 'pool party' $995."
    "Two socials and a 'bikini party' $895." "Returnees are offered discounts."

    What's Best For You

    Now if what they do works, why would they have to entice you to come back with a deep discount? For that matter if the foreign bride "marriage tours" were so successful why would you be a repeat customer? Latin tours can be fun, but if you have serious intentions of finding a Latin wife, our approach is better. Our method eliminates the crowds, distractions, and indignity of the marriage tour by providing you personal attention and guidance in a proper setting suited for building a relationship. You'll depart a happy customer and won't have to try again as a repeat customer.
    As for the other services, we give you all of the above for a much lower price and with greater speed and reliability. We provide a guaranteed communication connection (translation, address and delivery) for less than what the competition charges for a translation or an address. We simply do more for less.


  15. Are There Any Guarantees?

    What The Other Latin Mail Order Brides Services Sell You

    "We do not guarantee email addresses, phone numbers and we do not guarantee responses."
    "We do not guarantee email addresses and we do not guarantee responses to your email or written correspondence."
    "For ten bucks we offer neither refunds, nor assurances of delivery."
    "Guarantee: If you feel our service does not meet your expectations, we will send more girls FREE."

    What's Best For You

    So you get more of something that wasn't any good to begin with. What a bargain that is! We make a solid commitment to you. We say what we do, and we do what we say. All the Latin women on the website are current, available and voluntarily joined our marriage agency. Every Latin woman will receive your email within 24 hours. While we have no control of the content and timing of her reply, every Latin woman will receive one or more follow-up calls from our staff in order to inform you of the status of each of your emails. Our work does not end with your purchase. We are involved in the process of long distance matchmaking and we will use a variety of methods to assist to that end. No other Latin marriage agency will do as much. One of our best promotional tools is what you see in them and what you get from us. I encourage you to compare.

  16. Can South American Women Visit The U.S?

    What The Other South American Mail Order Brides Services Say

    "A tourist visa (good for 30 days) is quite easy to obtain if they don't already possess one."
    "…these ladies can obtain a tourist or student visa…"
    "Many of our ladies already have a visa an can come immediately."
    "In most cases, these ladies can obtain a tourist or student visa."
    "Most men let there fianc? work or go to school and then they can stay for many years without marriage."
    "In many if not most cases, these ladies can obtain a tourist visa, come to America, select a man, marry him and stay here."
    "In most cases, you can be married and have a Latina return home with you within 30 days!"

    What Experience & The Law Will Tell You

    None of this is true. Only a very small minority of primarily well-off Latin American Women will have a visitor visa. If you want her, you are going to have to visit her.

  17. What About Immigration?

    From the beginning of our Nation, American men have brought in foreign brides or fianc?es into our country. Since we have a long history of doing so, the process is very straightforward and inexpensive. You can have a lawyer handle the visa process or you can do it yourself. The Immigration and Naturalizations Service website provides instructions and forms. If you do it yourself, I recommend you research the whole process before beginning, because any incorrect preparations will cause delays.


  18. When Are Gifts Appropriate?

    What The Mail Order Services Will Sell You

    "Surprise your lady with a serenade $200
    "Chocolate Assortment - $29.99"
    "Dozen Red Roses $45"
    "Exotic floral arrangement $65.00"
    "A bouquet of eleven long stem red roses $85.00"
    "Floral arrangement… $150."
    "Cuddly Stuffed Animal. Price $59.95"

    What My Experience Will Tell You

    Other Latin dating agencies will encourage you to purchase overpriced gifts on their website. This is not necessary. We recommend that you do not buy gifts unless you feel there are promising possibilities. Latin American women are not materialistic; your focused attention is the best gift you can give them. When it becomes appropriate for gifts we can help you and suggest what is practical and beneficial for your situation. Believe me, it's none of the above gifts - it's you she wants.

  19. What Expenses Can I Expect?

    That depends on you. It can be more affordable than dating someone for the same equivalent period in the U.S. yet you will get a better return. For most people the cost will include long distance phone calls, translation services, English classes, immigration processing, one or two roundtrip plane trips for you (one of which could be a honeymoon), and a one-way trip for her. Believe me, the savings alone from buying the engagement ring in Latin America makes the whole process a bargain.


  20. Is A Colombian Marriage Tour Safe?

    What The Other Colombian Marriage Agencies Will Tell You

    "Not anymore dangerous than any other major city in the United States."
    "As far as Colombia is concerned, don't believe everything you see and hear in the press."
    "There are places much more dangerous than Colombia."
    "Don't believe everything you see or hear on TV or Radio because those are government regulated businesses and they give out very mis-leading information regarding foreign affairs and information they want you to think or know."
    "The media has taken things out of proportion like they always do."
    "Not so dangerous as written in the foreign press (we would not stay here otherwise)."

    What Experience & The Law Will Tell You

    As if they had anywhere else to go. By foreign press they must mean the good old U.S.A. In which case, I recommend that they not read the Colombian newspapers where the stories of killings and kidnappings are more abundant. Colombia is no walk in the park and it is deceiving for the other Colombian mail order brides sites to tell you so. What you should know is that most of the murders are related to drugs and politics and occur primarily outside of the cities. And while bystanders occasionally get killed there's no direct threat to Americans. You do have a criminal element but we can assure you your preservation goes hand in hand with ours. We stay in safe zones and with our guidance so will you. You will lodge with the elite and receive the equivalent premium protection. I will be there to look after your comfort and security. We know of all the precautions that will make your trip safe, enjoyable, memorable and rewarding. For additional safeguards we provide on your private marriage tour please contact us.

  21. Will I Have Greater Success With "Mail Order Brides"?

    The Domestic Internet Dating Charade

    What the domestic Internet Dating sites do not tell you is that seven out every ten of their members are male. The better-looking women receive up to 30 emails a day. I know because I have dated these women. To attract the premium American woman (and they all think they're premium) requires you to be at the top of your game. You better be incredibly interesting, wealthy, or both. If you are not Mr. Entertainment during the early dating phase of the relationship, you will be replaced by one of the dozen of incoming email proposals she will walk home to after the date.
    When you're not fighting the inflated competition on the domestic Internet dating sites, you are trying to figure the criteria of the American woman. Where else but in the U.S. can a man be turned down for not believing in reincarnation. Being normal and good doesn't fulfill the excitement requirement of the American woman. If you're not "Mr. Big" your often not worth the time to know regardless of your actual qualities. It does not have to be this way. We can introduce you to attractive Latin women in their prime that don't equate flare with importance. What is important to the Latin woman is a respectful, loyal, honorable husband who can maintain a harmonious family life. Being normal puts you on top of the pack.
    You can continue to compete for women who get dozens of emails a week, or you can introduce yourself to young Latin women who look forward to, and take seriously, the one to two emails they receive in a month. We can help you find the type of Latin woman for the type of relationship you want without compromising your standards. Why take a lifetime searching for a bride when you can have a Latin bride that will last a lifetime.

    What Other Mail Order Brides Marriage Agencies Do

    This is a good advisory site on how to recognize deceptive practices from dating sites and marriage agencies.
    Mail Order Brides Scams

    What International Introductions Will Do

    Our service is more than a presentation. What the other Latin mail order brides sites do not provide is integrity and customer commitment.

  23. What Do Latina Mail Order Brides Agencies Say About You?

    Straight from their mouth

    "Please, Educate yourself about other cultures around the world by reading books, surfing the internet, and talk to foreign travelers. STOP listening to your un-educated friends who have never been outside THEIR LOCAL CITY."
    "Once you arrive in Colombia, you will be required to sign a release form before services can be rendered."
    "So lose that gut, cut that nose and ear hair, and trim that moustache. Lift weights, eat healthier, and exercise before you come down."
    "…brush up on your Spanish"
    "We are not a matchmaking, dating, mail order bride or marriage agency. Any matchmaking, marriage or dating that may take place will be performed by 'you'…"
    "NO!!"

    What We Have To Say

    We will say what we do and do what we say. The advantages you see are real, having that realization is up to you.

    Feminine yet Hardworking
    Attentive but Not Submissive
    Strong Without Coming On Strong
    Simple yet Intelligent
    Captivating but Not Demanding
    Alluring and Not Overly Glamorous
    Respectful but Not Subservient
    Emotional yet Stable
    Traditional yet Open-Minded
    Loving and Faithful
    Non-Materialistic yet Appreciative
    Amorous and Playful
    Nurturing and Supportive

  24. Is This My Last Chance To Find A Foreign Bride?

    What The Other Mail Order Brides Services Will Tell You.

    "This may be your only chance to find a foreign bride."

    What You Will Find Out

    This is not your only chance, just your best chance.
