The Latin Introduction Experience: Personal Client Letters
“I wanted to write to you to thank you for having such a wonderful staff at International Introductions. I wanted you to know that everyone treated me like a king, especially your translators, and my experience using your romance tour in Barranquilla was great. You were right, Jamie, I met more women in 10 days than I could have met in a lifetime here. Your translators kept me so busy I had to ask them to slow down. They both told me, on separate occasions, that Jamie would want me to be meeting women and dating as much as possible, so ‘let’s get going.'”
“Jamie, as an owner of a business myself, I think it is very important to let you know that your translators represented your company extremely well and referred to you many times over the course of my stay. They both have tremendous respect for you, and that says a lot about you and your marriage agency. I know it makes me feel good when I hear people compliment the people who work for me, especially when I cannot be there myself. It makes me feel secure that the business is okay in my absence, even if I still worry no matter how well things are going. International Introductions provides a service that people can trust.”
“I found your translator to be an excellent facilitator in the groups as well as on the individual dates. She would probably make a good teacher. If there was silence or a lull in conversation, she always knew what to say or ask to keep things moving along comfortably. She also proved to be more than just a translator and facilitator; she was a great tour guide. I traveled to Cartagena one day, and she was as impressive as the city when it came to her knowledge of history and architecture. You can tell she enjoys what she does. Her feedback on the women was honest and invaluable to me when it came to making decisions. She was also very serious about the whole process of meeting and dating the women, and she gave you full credit for that. I don’t know if you train the people who work for you or not, but whatever you are doing is working.”
“The second translator was a very pleasant and warm person and had her own style as a translator. I felt comfortable with her at all times. Her personality was remarkable, and I quickly felt I was in good hands. This made me feel secure because, honestly, I was uncomfortable about switching translators in the middle of my trip. But within the first hour of being with her, that discomfort disappeared. She was very intelligent and able to pick up on my feelings with little or no conversation. Merry Christmas, Jamie, and thank you for a wonderful experience.”

“From a service standpoint, your organization is absolutely top-notch; my communications both before I came and during my trip were flawless. Though I only had one day to work with her, the second translator was an absolute machine when it came to translating. My second night with one of the women I met through your service was pivotal for my trip, and that translator was a huge part of it. The first translator also has excellent translation skills, but her street and people skills are even better. I can’t imagine how much money she saved me in cab fare alone. Early on during my trip, I started referring to her as my “pit bull,” as she literally argued a cab driver to the point of submission over a fare. She expertly handled my safety and always kept an eye on my personal situations as well, offering an extra (and sometimes better, always useful) opinion for me. Obviously, her opinions would not have been any good if I didn’t feel I could trust her, but I was instantly able to see that she also had her clients’ best interests in mind.”
“Her real strength, however, lies in her people skills. The first translator made the woman I was dating feel completely comfortable; in fact, on our second night, she asked me where the translator was. Without her confidence in and genuine liking for the translator, who knows if our relationship would have gone so well. She added to the environment rather than just being a translator, and I personally consider her a friend. I would very much like to work with her again on my future trips.”
“The first translator also had a great read on the second woman, very similar to your own. The truth is, both of you saved me a great deal of trouble and a lot of time by steering me away from that direction. I eventually realized she was almost exactly like my ex, and there is a reason my ex is my ex. I owe you both a great deal of gratitude, but I’ll get to that after my review.”
“The lodging was great. Barranquilla is hot as hell, but I found the back porch very comfortable for just hanging out when I needed some downtime. My room stayed cool and was very conducive to a romantic environment. The overall layout was great, and the design was a lot of fun.”
“That brings me to your housekeeper. I’m sure you know what a gem you have in her. She completely understood my rudimentary Spanish, and we talked a great deal over the course of my trip. I understand a lot more Spanish than I can speak, and she was even able to help explain to the woman you introduced me to how to understand “gringo Spanish” and how to explain things more clearly to me. Both my translator and your housekeeper were key in helping me find the rhythm that this woman and I now enjoy. I hope all of your clients take the time to get to know her.”
“On the service side, your housekeeper always made sure my living quarters were impeccable. She quickly turned around some laundry and ironing I requested, and then washed all of my dirty clothes before I left, without me even asking. One morning, when I found myself temporarily out of contact with my translator, she brought me food from her home when she realized I hadn’t eaten. Her cooking is excellent. I made sure to return the favor and invited her to dinner on an evening when I cooked for the woman you introduced me to. It was just a nice, quiet dinner and evening between friends and lovers, and it turned out to be her favorite date. Pretty impressive, considering we had 15 different dates in 10 days. All in all, what I’m getting at is that your staff was a major asset in bringing us closer together.”
“The dates set up for me were great. The first two were excellent, especially the first, and the second was a lot of fun. I didn’t particularly hit it off with my morning date the next day, but that was because I got an “I’m an expensive girl” vibe from her. My lunch date was cool and interesting, and if she hadn’t told me she loves to fight and argue (the number one thing I don’t like about American women), I probably would have scheduled a second date… which, in hindsight, I wouldn’t have been able to keep anyway.”
“The introduction groups are a great way to meet a lot of Colombian women very quickly. I’m not sure how every guy handles it, but public speaking is a way of life for me, and I felt completely comfortable in a room full of beautiful Latin women. I’m still surprised by how sweet the women of Colombia are. I had an idea, but who could guess that so many would be so unassuming. There was a very real possibility with one of the women in the group, and if things hadn’t progressed as far as they did with the first woman I met through your service, I’m confident I would be speaking glowingly about her instead. The truth is I decided not to meet with a second woman who I’m certain shared an emotional connection with me, because I already had such a strong connection with the first. It’s good to know there’s always a reason to return if things ever go south.”
“Now for the most important part of my trip: the first woman I met through your service. After our first date (she was also my airport pickup), I asked my translator, “Who the heck is she?” Because of the long delay before my trip, I was very familiar with many of the profiles and was stumped when I didn’t recognize an absolute 10. My translator explained that she wasn’t even on the website, and that you had gone through your old files, thought she might be a good fit for me, and had her contacted as a handpicked choice for my airport pickup. The extra work paid off. I don’t know if you were throwing darts or acting on a very strong hunch, but she is exactly the person I was looking for. She’s strong and passionate but still humble. She was raised properly in a house full of love and comes from the kind of family I want to be a part of. She is not desperate under any circumstances, and I am proud to be the man she has chosen to be with. She’s also a lot of fun and shares my sense of humor, even the more offbeat stuff. We’ve reached the point where we don’t even need to understand every word, because we can read each other’s expressions.”
“Without your extra time and effort, I would have ended up with someone else. And without your “wake up” email, I would probably be in a situation that wasn’t right for me. Thank you, Jamie. Your marriage agency is excellent, and you are very good at what you do. I still have a few things to figure out before I return, but I will definitely be coming back. I’ll be continuing with the communications service right away, and I look forward to working with you and your team again in person in the near future. All my best wishes, and thank you for helping me find my path to happiness; the truth is, I didn’t want to leave.”



“Finally, my thoughts on my romance tour to Barranquilla. My translator and the first woman you introduced me to were waiting for me at the airport. They were very courteous, and it was a warm greeting. My translator took charge and made me feel comfortable with her at the helm. The woman I met was pretty and sweet. After meeting her, I thought I would see her again, but after the three of us sat down and talked, the jam-packed, nonstop schedule began. My first group meeting took place that same night. I was tired but felt good. The women in the group were wonderful: all were personable, attentive, and seemed genuinely interested in what I had to say. My translator was excellent. She was able to translate my questions and answers in the same sequence I spoke them. I didn’t have to limit myself to single sentences; I could tell a short story and trust that she conveyed it clearly and in order. She never abbreviated what I said.”
“First, let me thank you for a great trip. The romance tour was incredible, and meeting you in person was equally enjoyable. Your translators were outstanding in making me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived, and they truly made me feel at home in Colombia. The people I met helped me understand what wonderful people Colombians are. I look forward to the day I can return.”

“I would like to say that my translator did an excellent job from beginning to end, and that everything about my time on the romance tour was exceptional and very well organized. She continues to help and give me advice. I was very lucky to meet a Latin woman, and hopefully things will work out. But even if I had not met her, I want to repeat what I mentioned to you in person: you should not feel that this would reflect poorly on your services, because in a decision like this it is essential to find the right person. Not finding someone is not the worst outcome; the worst thing is settling for someone who is not the right one. Many thanks for everything, and for being so professional and genuinely caring about making sure everything was done properly. I truly believe I would have wasted my time going to any other marriage agency there.”


“I just want to let you know that I had a great time on the romance tour in Barranquilla and met a lot of very nice Colombian women. My translator was an excellent interpreter and did a great job setting up appointments for me. She also helped me stay focused on my goal of meeting that special woman. It is very easy for a man to get distracted and forget why he came to Barranquilla, and the times I lost my focus, she reminded me about my future. That helped me concentrate more on the inner qualities I value in a woman. After meeting and dating several women, I think I met someone special who has all the inner qualities I was looking for. I plan on keeping in contact with her by phone and email, and I want to take the time to get to know her better before getting engaged. I feel things work out much better when two people take their time to truly know one another. I just want to thank you and your agency for everything. It has been a great trip to Barranquilla and an excellent experience for me.”

“I wanted to send you a note to thank you for your introduction services while I was in Barranquilla. I very much enjoyed my stay and the overall experience. The real reason for my note is this: one of the most, if not the most, impressive parts of my trip was meeting my translator and having the good fortune to work with her. She is an excellent translator, but her skills go far beyond that. She is an excellent judge of character, can quickly assess issues and situations, and carries herself with real class in everything she does. I was impressed by how professional and classy she was and by how well she represented your marriage agency. I had the clear sense that she not only takes her job very seriously, but that she is genuinely passionate about seeing your clients happy. That means a great deal. You are fortunate to have her on your team. If I return to Barranquilla, she would be the number one reason my money would be headed your way. Many thanks again for the incredible value and service you offer. I hope to see you again down the road.”

“I have to admit, I had an incredible experience through International Introductions. I arrived home last night already wanting to be back in Barranquilla. All the Colombian women I met were beautiful and smart, and the introduction service was first-rate. My translator was fantastic. She did an outstanding job of accurately and quickly conveying and translating not only my words but also my feelings, which can often be lost in translation. She was extremely diligent in assisting me with every aspect of my trip, and any help I needed she handled quickly. She made me feel at ease and comfortable throughout the entire trip. I would unhesitatingly recommend your services.”

“From the beginning, when I first started my quest to find the perfect partner, you have been there every step of the way for me. Even after I met her, your service has been just as good, if not better. Whenever I return to Barranquilla to visit her, you are always there for me. From the airport pickup to the hotel arrangements to providing my translator, who is more like a personal assistant when I am there, everything runs smoothly. I cannot make a stronger recommendation to other guys to keep taking advantage of the services you provide even after they have met that special someone. Having my translator with me gave me complete peace of mind and allowed me to focus on the woman I’m seeing and on getting to know her family. She took care of all the other details so I didn’t have to worry. On the morning I was leaving, there was a knock on my hotel room door and room service brought coffee to my room so I wouldn’t have to go to the breakfast area. I love my coffee in the morning, and my translator had taken it upon herself to arrange that with the hotel, and they didn’t even charge me. It might seem like a small detail, but these little things mean a lot and show that International Introductions only hires the best people for the job. That was just one small example, and it gives you an idea of how well she handled everything else. It was excellent. So, Jamie, I thank you again for taking care of us American guys in Barranquilla, and I know you will always be there with the same consistent service that I am accustomed to here in New York.”

“I wanted to share my initial impressions of my trip to Barranquilla and your staff. I could not be more impressed with the way I have been treated since I arrived on Friday. I believe I have met most of your staff. They have been attentive to my needs, courteous, and extremely helpful. My driver is very professional and somehow manages to drive safely among the crazy Colombian drivers. Everywhere I have been, I am dropped off and picked up at the door, with the feeling of limousine service. My translator has gone above and beyond my expectations. She always has my safety as her first priority, which is reassuring for a foreigner in Colombia. Her translation is spot on. She keeps the conversation lively, funny, and engaging for both me and my date. She also provides great insight and, when asked, honest opinions about the character of the ladies I have met. I want to thank you and your staff for a great beginning to my visit. I am really looking forward to the rest of my stay. So far, it has proven to be an excellent decision to use your agency and come to Barranquilla.”
“Tomorrow I will be heading home. This has been an amazing experience for me. The Colombian women I have met seem to have so much to offer in return for just a little respect and common decency. I cannot tell you how refreshing this has been, coming from the “me, me, me” attitude of American women. I’m now left with the difficult decision of choosing just one. My translator has continued to be a great asset and has become a good friend as well. She has exceeded all my expectations and managed my schedule perfectly. I have had very little downtime, and I believe I have made the best use of my time here. Thank you for everything.”

“I wanted to extend my deepest thanks and gratitude for all your help in making my dream start to become a reality. I have met a wonderful Latin lady through your marriage agency. We are falling deeply in love and making plans for our future together.”
“This would not have been possible without the attentive care of your entire staff. They paid close attention to every important detail and step in the process to make this happen. The translators were friendly, personable, and extremely knowledgeable. The suite I stayed in at the agency was more than adequate and very comfortable. I felt right at home and very welcome there, 24 hours a day.”
“I am planning to return in a few months to propose to my girlfriend and get her started on English lessons through your marriage agency. I feel alive again after meeting such a spectacular Colombian woman. This is just the beginning, but I believe that with your help throughout this process, our dream can become a reality for her and me.”
“I can never thank you enough for all your help, and when the day comes that I’m raising a glass of champagne to celebrate our marriage, I’ll be sure to include your contributions in that moment of thanks.”

“Jamie, I wanted to thank you once again for your hospitality. The apartment and the location were the perfect place for entertaining guests and even a little shopping! I know that I contacted you on short notice, so it meant a lot to me that you were able to accommodate me and introduce me to so many beautiful ladies, not to mention the one I plan on staying in touch with. It’s no secret that I came to Colombia a couple of weeks ago with another agency in another city. Because I had been to International Introductions with you in Barranquilla before, I thought that all agencies operated the same way, but they don’t, and my trip turned out to be a disaster. You did for me with one week’s notice what those guys couldn’t do with months of planning. I didn’t get the personal touch with them that you and your staff add to the experience. I like that you and your team have actually met the ladies before, and that when a translator accompanies you on a date, the lady is already comfortable with him or her. I also like that your staff knows the city well and was able to make great suggestions for dates. The other guys didn’t have this, so the dates were very uncomfortable. Imagine going on a date where both you and the translator are complete strangers to the woman, or being a foreign man with no idea where to go or what places are safe. I could go on and on about why I’ll never use another agency, but I’m sure you’ve heard it all before, so I’ll just say thanks again, my friend. Hope to see you again soon!”
