We could talk a lot or you could just watch this video we made to convey who we are what we're up to!
So why did we start a Indian dating site especially when there are so many other sites out there?
Our usual short answer to this question is: ask any user of any Indian dating/matrimonial site across the globe if they are happy with their experience of what’s out there today, and you’ll most certainly understand why there’s a need for a better solution. Simply put, what’s out there is just not built well enough to give users an enjoyable, comfortable experience, and more importantly, hefty fees are charged for imperfect products. This is true for dating and matrimonial sites, alike.
Also, like every Entrepreneur whose product has a personal connection to them, our site is tied to our personal story. It all began when our parents 'attempted' to put one of our cofounder's profile up on a matrimonial site. You know the deal, finish college, look for a wife. But once we looked at the sites our parents had in mind. We were floored that customers were paying for sub-par experiences, and these sites were getting away with it!. So, two things dawned upon us: 1. Like every nerd, we were going to solve our problem by building a website, and 2. We were going to build a better experience than what was out there, along with a sustainable business model - www.TwoMangoes.com is on that path today.
