Why Tumango dating events?

Let's face it, by now you know it takes meeting a number of people before you find someone you click with. But, the problem is how do you meet them in the first place? Sure there are ways...bars..blind dates..dating services..online, etc. But, they all have their disadvantages and they take time…lots of it.

What fun is it to wait around for someone to talk to you in a bar or when you're out and about? What fun is it to risk rejection over and over again or worse meet a phyco! Very few people have the currage to even strike up a conversation with people you don't even know. And what if the conversation goes well? what about the awkwardness afterwards with asking for phone numbers, do you have the option of pre-screening?.....NOT!

Think about it, when was the last time you met someone for the first time and wished you could have asked a particular question before you went out on a date? That particular question that was on your mind but, didn't ask until it was too late.

With Tumango you will meet up to 18 (and sometimes more) single professionals in less than 2 hours. You meet Latin people just like you! people who want to meet someone who share the common goals and ambitions. Think of it as a series of "mini dates" just like when you go to a party. Afterwards, if there's a mutual interest (you circle on your interest sheet who you want to exchange contact information with), later that night you log back into tumango and find out who wants to meet you! At tumango you'll get an email with each other's contact information.

There's no pressure, no embarrassment and no games! Once you have replied to the person who is interested in meeting you and you feel totally comfortable you have the option to exchange personal contact information and the best part? you can keep coming to all the tumango events until YOU find your match.

We are very confident that NO other Latin Speed Dating service offers you all of the following, as a matter of fact we are the ONLY Latino speed dating service of it's kind! 

We are located here in the heart of the San Fernado Valley

What Makes Tumango dating events Different From Other Dating Services? 

Tumango dating is the first dating service for the Latin people aimed towards the professional Latinos in the San Fernando Valley. Here are some of the things that make Tumango different from other dating companies:

  • Credible - Tumango is a Pioneer in its field aimed towards Latinos with common interest.
  • Established - We continually improve our service to offer the best dating events with experience possible.
  • Available - Tumango is available by telephone 7 days a week! Sometimes you just need to talk to a live person.
  • Our Event Coordinators have their phone numbers posted on our Web site and in emails we send you.
  • Focus on Professionals – Tumango dating events focuses on servicing Latin professionals.
  • Reliable - Tumango holds 99% of all events we schedule. Don't gamble with your time on companies that cancel or postpone events. We make every effort to hold our events as scheduled.
  • Quality - We work hard to have the ideal number of people at each event and to balance genders. Ensuring a good turnout and that there are equal numbers of men and women is critical to success.
  • Guaranteed - We are so confident you will meet someone you want to get to know better that we offer a free second event date!
  • Patent Pending Process - Tumango has invested heavily in its patent-pending technology that minimizes the chances you will meet the same people from a past event you've attended at future events. This is why we have the highest repeat customer rate in the speed dating industry. So if you attend an event and for whatever reason desire to attend again, you can register with confidence you will meet many new people!

Who Goes To a Tumango Event?

The majority of our participants are busy Latin professionals people who value their time. The reality is you, like most of our participants, have little trouble building a relationship with someone you know but simply don't have the time to meet people in the first place! Our events solve this dilemma by helping you meet many new people in a short time and in a fun, no pressure way. Also, our participants are people who aren't comfortable with, or just tired of, many of the traditional dating approaches. But the bottom line is that they're people like you--interested in finding someone they're compatible with. And they want to do it in a safe, comfortable, efficient and dignified manner. Tumango dating events are open to all single professionals although on occasion we have special events for people desiring to meet those sharing a similar affinity, interest or background.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

Will I meet people of all ages?

No, all of our events are age compatible. All sessions are designed with a 10 year or less age range which can change from month to month. For example, one month we may have 22-32, 43-53 and the next we might have 18-25, 26-36 and 45-55. We've found that most people want to meet others that are close to their age. For those who don't, read the next question and answer. We also have special events for people who desire to meet significantly older or younger people.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What About Exceptions To Age Or Interest Categories?

I'm 29 but prefer someone older, but the event I want to attend says it's for singles who are 33-43 can I still attend this event session instead of one in my own age range? … OR … I'm Caucasian but am interested in meeting someone who is Hispanic, can I attend a Special Event that says it's for Latin Singles? YES.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How many people can I expect to meet in a night?

Typically 15 to 19 (and sometimes as many at 23).

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What if there's only a few people there?

This shouldn't happen. We know how many people are registered before event day. Fortunately, our events are very popular and nearly always sell out.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How long does a session take?

Due to the fact that most events are sold out, we usually have 2 sessions, one before the other. Each session will have a specific age range and/or interest group. Typically, the first session will begin around 6:00 PM and the second session begins around 8:30 PM. Each session takes about an hour and a half.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How much time do I have to talk to someone?

Typically 8 minutes per person but depending upon attendance and other things you may have 10 minutes or as high as 12 minutes. We'll let you know how much time you have before we start the event.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

8 minutes doesn't seem like a lot of time, is it enough?

Remember, you're not on a date; you're on a Tumango dating event! Tumango is a great way to see if you'd be interested in a full date or just more conversation later. Sometimes 8 minutes is way too long if you know what we mean. But in 8 minutes most people can tell if there's physical chemistry, if they like the way someone speaks, if the person is mature and intelligent, and if they want to know more. At which point they'd select YES on the Match Sheet and hopefully the other person would do the same!

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What should I talk about?

You'll see that once you start the event everything just flows. But don't worry; we'll give you some “Topic Tips” to help you out. One tip, think about what you'd want to know before going on a date with the person. Some people ask harmless easy questions like "What hobbies do you have" or "What area of town do you live in" and others ask tough questions like "When is the last time you lied to someone". The possibilities are endless but relax and try not to be too serious, just have fun. Another tip, try to avoid the more mundane questions like "what do you do" and "where are you from" as this can be repetitive. Try to stand out and differentiate yourself from the others. And if you are sitting across from someone you're not attracted to, please remember that they still have a story to tell

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How should I dress for the event?

It's your call. Shorts and flip-flops might not project the best image however! Seriously, many people come directly from work so you'll see business casual or even a suit or two. If it's a later event session people might be dressed down a bit but you probably won't see any torn blue jeans. You know what to do, be comfortable, look good, and smile!

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How will my matches contact me?

When you arrive you get your Match Sheet, where you will write your email address or phone number at the top of your sheet. It's your decision which one you want your matches to have. You can provide both if you wish and your matches will have 2 different ways to get in touch.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How long does it take before I get my matches?

You will receive your Match the moment you login to Tumango. 

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What if I don't get any matches?

It can happen but over two-thirds of our participants get at least one match (some get quite a few!) and some events have even had 100% people get a match! If you're real picky and only say Yes to 1 or 2 people, then it might take a second event to get a match, then again, maybe not! Our advice is if you're not completely sure just say Yes because you never know

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What if there aren't any matches, will I still get an email?

Yes, your email will simply state that there were no matches for you. If this happens, don't sweat it. Remember, it takes two to tango as they say. Everyone has a preference, including you! The email will instruct you how to take advantage of our Match Guarantee program.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

Who contacts who?

We encourage both parties to contact each other. Remember, you already know the other person is interested in meeting you!

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

What if I email or call someone and they don't return my call?

Why not try one more time? Sometimes people go on vacation or don't check their email every day so give it a few days. We encourage everyone to please be courteous and return calls and emails even if you change your mind and don't want a date with a person.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

How much does a Tumango Dating event cost?

Most events range from only $10-$40 and others are free. Specific interest events may be a bit higher. The investment amount is clearly shown when you register and varies slightly from city to city. If you pay by credit card, you will see the amount and Tumango on your credit card statement.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................

I don't have a credit card, can I still attend?

Certainly, we accept checks online and in the mail. After filling out the registration form and proceeding to the secure server, you will have the choice to select credit card or online check. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Amex and Discover. There is also a way you can fax your registration and lastly in person but you must call our customer service center for more information.

........................................................................................................................................................................................................
