JWed, a leading online Jewish dating for marriage service with over 3,600 marriages, believes that for each member, “It’s time your profile had a voice!”
Voice Intro is the new feature enabling members to make a bolder impact by expressing themselves through a personal audio message attached to their profile.
Derek Saker, CEO of JWed conveys that the whole raison d’etre of the service, was to develop a less dismissive dating environment.
For JWed this has meant empowering members to create a unique and diverse membership profile that provides a far more holistic and rounded initial picture of themselves.
As Saker says. “Voice Intro is another unique tool, where we enable members to creatively personalize their profile. Allowing for a maximum of 60 second recording, members are able to very simply record and share any type of audio intro to themselves.”
Ari, 28 from Los Angeles says that he grabbed the Voice Intro opportunity. “I am not my best at written expression, but with a short audio message I believe I was able to encapsulate my humorous side what is so much of who I am!”
JWed strives to constantly provide members with the tools to create an online dating profile that says so much more about them - than the typical online dating profile. A profile which is typically glanced at for a second – or two if lucky - and then swiped to the left or the right.
At JWed, members must complete a number of questions providing a diverse picture of their background, Jewishness, life goals etc. Screened photos must include more than just portrait shots, but tell stories of themselves – such as hobbies etc. And the Personal Description must be substantive and meaningful.
The launch of Voice Intro has JWed partnering with JStay – who have sponsored a FREE TICKET to Israel draw - as an added incentive to JWed members to record an audio!
JStay is the #1 Jewish travel app allowing users to find suitable vacation rentals and hotels; with Kashrut filters & ratings, Shabbat/Holiday options and so much more.
JStay founder and CEO Sholli Kestecher says that “Just as JWed was an innovative first in the marriage-minded Jewish space, so too JStay is a leader in making it never easier to book or host within Jewish neighborhoods across the globe.”
At JWed, members, unlike many other ‘Jewish-by-name-only’ dating services, must be Jewish and must be sincerely marriage-minded.
Given the membership of tens of thousands crosses all ages, JWed has made the new Voice Intro feature extremely easy to integrate – whether accessing JWed from the website or app.
Jackie, a 62 year-old Jewish single member from Miami says that when her daughter heard her recorded audio she nearly fell out of her seat! “I didn’t even really put so much time into it – but it speaks my personality – which is very talkative!”
JWed believes that those profiles which have a Voice Intro attached, will quickly become the most engaging and active membership profiles within the service.
