Discounts and Strategies: How to Make the Most of A Foreign Affair

First time visitor introduction to A Foreign Affair

Guys think that there is some big secret to making the most effective use of our services here. There is. It's simple: TAKE A TOUR!

Nearly all of the successful relationships that start on Loveme.com develop on the tour. Perhaps some develop through emails, but the emails are not the most effective use of your time or money.

Our emails have the same problem as any other online dating option. It is hard to make a real connection and dangerous to actually believe you have made a real connection digitally before you meet someone in person. This is why online dating is reaching the same level of low customer service as used car lots and cable TV. The expectations are high and the results are often disappointing.

Why We Still Offer Emails

Emails may seem outdated, but the simplicity and ease of use makes it popular with our male and female clients.

Guys often wonder why we still offer emails. Well, the answer to that is easy.

"Both our male and female clients like the service."

Guys seem to like sending emails because picking out a woman and sending her an email feels proactive. They are doing something, and getting an email from a pretty girl is fun and exciting.

A lot of women like our system because it tends to weed out most of the kooks, nuts, and stalkers. It proves to them that a guy is at least somewhat legit. Also, our translators don't forward inappropriate photos or threatening letters. So, women can open their emails with zero stress. A lot of them like that, and it makes a lot of sense.

A lot of guys seem to believe they are "testing" our system to decide if they want to take a tour. Of course, that is doing things completely backwards.

It really makes no sense, because in this case, you are using A Foreign Affair as a slow, expensive version of Tinder. We are not Tinder. We don't want to be like Tinder. It's up to you if you want to use Tinder or any of the other online dating sites. Tinder can be a lot of fun, though, and so can our email service, but neither one is the best way to build a serious relationship.

The Best Way to Use Email?

TAKE A TOUR!

Look, we get it. You can send emails for $8.95, but a tour is going to end up costing you close to $5k at the low end when you include your flight and spending money.

So, do your research. Check out these video reviews, read these long emails here, and carefully watch these video testimonials too. Then take a look at what the dozens of investigative journalists have said about us over the years. Finally, read the dissertation of the feminist sociology professor who studied us for four full years with no strings attached.

It might take you a week or even two, but whenever you feel comfortable knowing that we are really trying to help good men and women meet and build lasting relationships, sign up for a tour!

Once you have selected a date, start sending women a few emails a month or maybe six weeks before your departure date. You can also make an interesting introduction to a few women you would like to meet without getting too emotionally attached.

This is the most effective way to use our email service.

Discounts

We want you to take a tour so badly that we will give you a discount if you don't listen to us and spend a fortune on email. We'll do these two things to make things better for you.

Joining tours is the best way for you to meet potential partners. In fact, we encourage joining tours so bad, we give discounts to countless clients!

First, if you are spending a lot of money on emails, we give you a discount. Second, on those same emails, you can earn a credit - a set amount of money - that will be subtracted from the cost of your tour; we call these tour credits.

Here is how John Adams, the President of A Foreign Affair, explained the discount credits in a recent email about them.

*So. yes, when you place money on you account you can earn two separate
bonuses, one for letters, you get 5 percent if you just place $50.00,
but you get 10% if you place over $100.00 at a time. Put $100.00 get
$110.00 of credit in your account.

Then, you can also earn tour credits that will show up in your admin
section. You have to place at least $250.00 at a time to earn the
credit.

Thanks,

John

This means that contacting ladies through AFA can be as much as 10% cheaper than listed prices, and you can also get discounts on tours if you purchase the letter credits in amounts of $250 or more. Still, we would rather you go ahead and schedule a tour!

Here is the fine print on tour credits:

"Tour Credits"

When you place a qualifying order, in addition to your instant 10%
bonus, you will earn credits towards your goal of taking one of our
Tours! Add $250.00 and earn a tour credit of $50.00, Add $500.00 and
earn a credit of $100.00! Tour credits can be used towards any full
Singles Tour!

Tour credits have no cash value and can only be redeemed towards an AFA Singles Tour.

Tour credits will expire if not used within 2 years from the date earned.

If you are super serious, the discounts and credits are probably not all that important. You are ready to take a tour now, and you don't need any extra encouragement.

But if you are sort of sitting on the fence, unsure because of professional commitments, or family matters, like caring for an ailing relative, you can use AFA to start communicating with the gorgeous women AFA represents while knowing that part of the money you are spending on communication will also lower the cost of your tour when you are able to go.

Platinum Membership Bonuses

Amazingly, these are not the only discounts AFA has available. If you sign up for AFA's Platinum Membership, every dollar you pay towards your Platinum Membership is applied to your tour credit account while drastically lowering your communication costs.

Here is a detailed explanation of what you get with Platinum Membership.

Open Tours

Another way to lower your cost is to sign up for an OPEN TOUR. This gives you the first month of a Platinum Membership and $50 worth of communication credit for free. You pay only $475 as a deposit on your eventual tour. This is great if you are certain you want to go on a tour and you want as many discounts as possible but are not sure which tour you can make.

Prepay Your Tour

Prepaying for your tours is the most cost-efficient way for you to get the most of our services.

The best way to lower your cost is to prepay in full by personal check, cashier's check, or money order 90 days in advance of the tour you want to go on. If you do that, you get the $300 discount on tours to Ukraine and $100 off of a Latin or Asian tour, and all of the benefits of paying for an Open Tour.

Group Tours

Finally, if you can talk one of your friends into going with you after you have already committed to a tour, you can get a discount of $300 for a Ukrainian Tour and $100 for an Asian or Latin Tour. If you are a leader in your community, get 18 guys and you can take the tour for free.

No one who went to business school would ever come up with this sort of mishmash of discounts, but in the 1990s, there were hundreds of small agencies competing with AFA, and these discounts and bonuses gave us a competitive advantage. Nearly all of those other agencies are gone. Yes, there are a couple of new companies who have copied their business model, but A Foreign Affair is absolutely dominant in the industry.

AFA doesn't need to give these discounts anymore, but when asked about it, here is what John Adams said:

Because we really want guys to take tours! That's where nearly
everyone who has gotten married off our site has met their wife - on
tours. Guys want to write the letters. I understand that, but I want
our guys to succeed and to do that they need to take a tour. So, we do
everything we can to make it convenient and financially affordable to
take a tour. That's why we still do all of that stuff.

Now, you can see why A Foreign Affair is the top international dating agency in the world because no other company tries harder to help couples succeed. We don't need to offer all these discounts and credits, but we really want to help people succeed.

Of course, not all our clients find love. We can't promise that, but we do promise to work hard to put people in the right situation where the spark of flirtation can grow into real interest, and eventually blossom into love.
