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…
