New York – December 11, 2006 – The New York Times has had a thriving voice personals business for a number of years, proving voice personals are still stiff competition for online match-making sites.

Matt Truskey, Client Service Manger of Advanced Telecom Services believes Times Personals are successful because of the clientele they attract. “Many of our clients feel they can interact with other people on a more personal level, and can exercise a new media outlet for meeting new people,” Truskey said.

“Times Personals” began in Nov. of 2000 and is known to be placing personals for an older crowd of individuals, approximately those in their late 40’s and up. According to Truskey, many clients prefer it over internet dating because they feel it is a more selective process. “There are many commonalities between the people that choose to use [“Times Personals”.] Because they are putting a personal in a newspaper such as the New York Times, they may have the same political views, or like to travel. The reputation of the newspaper attracts more cultured individuals that are looking for a good group of people to meet,” Truskey said.

To place a personal in “Times Personals” clients must call 1-866-248-3646 to receive a price quote.
