There is no question, digital dating platforms and AI technology have radically shifted the dating scene, and not all for the better. Singles are now given more choice – and more reason to doubt each other – than ever. These days, just getting to the date may feel like an overwhelming obstacle course of confusion and frustration. Consequently, we’re missing out on how transformative dating can be when we’re doing it with the right mindset.
Author Carrie Prince is on a mission to make the modern dating experience better. A self-proclaimed “dating enthusiast” and creator of the site You Can Date Better, Prince is a wildly fun thought leader with serious skin in the game. Outside of her experience as a professional matchmaker and dating coach, she was also an avid online dater, with over a decade of adventures on a variety of platforms. It’s safe to say she has her finger on the pulse of the dating world and knows how she wants to improve it. Drawing on her MBA background, she lays out a clear plan with strategies for success, but it’s her personal touch and humor that really persuade modern daters to listen up.
Benefit of the Date is the guide you hope for when entering territory as unforgiving as the modern dating scene. This book is filled with a combination of relatable, true-to-life stories and original thought frameworks that shift mindsets from frustration to fun. Prince highlights the pain points of the dating community and holds the readers’ hands and hearts through a journey of self-reflection, truth-telling, and goal-setting. You’ll learn how to set clear intentions, avoid platform pitfalls, improve communication, manage expectations, stay accountable, and measure your true success. Readers will come away reinvigorated, with a solid foundation and newfound understanding for how to approach their next dating adventure – digitally and beyond.
