Advisor Garage Leverages Dating Site Technology to Help Entrepreneurs & Start Ups

A new web service called Advisor Garage (http://www.AdvisorGarage.com) has been launched which leverages online dating technology to bring Entrepreneurs together with business advisors, mentors and potential investors.

The Advisor Garage service is simple. Entrepreneurs search through Advisor’s ‘Advisory Pitches’ until an Advisor is found which corresponds to what the Entrepreneur’s new business needs. Alternatively, Advisor can search through the multiple entrepreneur elevator pitches until one looks attractive and then reach out via Advisor Garage.

“Advisor Garage helps Startup geeks and entrepreneurs check out potential 'date friendly' Advisors and decide if they want to create a lasting relationship. So far there are 200+ Advisors running their fingers around the rims of their martinis just waiting for a good one liner from the next hot startup founder.”

So why do entrepreneurs need Advisor Garage?
“Having founded three different businesses, one of the most time consuming and challenging elements was pulling all the resources together at the very beginning. Thankfully I had a few good mentors that made that process less painful than it could have been. We created http://www.AdvisorGarage.com so Entrepreneurs can find those people that would really help them achieve their startup goals and cutting down the time between concept and success…key when you are burning cash!” Andrew, founder, AdvisorGarage.com

But will Advisor’s join Advisor Garage? Advisor Garage already has more than two hundred Advisors signed up to the service including venture capitalists, serial entrepreneurs, angel investors, academics and successful business people from multiple countries. And just to be sure that being online is not a barrier, for those who remain uncomfortable entering their personal details on-line, Advisor Garage has also taken the time to create a system which ensures all correspondence between entrepreneurs and advisors occurs within the system.

Time will tell if the service Advisor Garage provides will be picked up and used by entrepreneurs but one things for certain, now Business Week has written about Advisor Garage as a service about which ‘Entrepreneurs Need to Know’ – chances are they probably will.
