Linx Dating

Two days ago, I hosted an incredibly memorable event at the Rosewood Sand Hill Hotel memorializing over two decades of my running Linx Dating. The Rosewood is particularly symbolic for me as I hosted one of the original private events at the hotel when it opened in 2009. Vanity Fair magazine got wind of the excitement of my Link & Drink and ended up doing a feature on love in Silicon Valley that became a global sensation (https://lnkd.in/gsffsgEC). Over 120 members of the Linx network helped me celebrate 20 incredible years of love and matchmaking in Silicon Valley and reminded me how beyond grateful and honored I am to wear the title of Cupid of Silicon Valley. My small but mighty team Dani Geary and Caroline Novia stood by my side and, collectively, we made our guests feel warm, welcome, and appreciated for how wonderful they are! Our guests networked and made excellent professional connections and, as in true Link & Drink fashion, we witnessed some sparks potentially blossoming into love connections. As my toast illuminated, it’s hard for me to articulate how deeply meaningful my business is to me. It has been the source of such deep satisfaction to me over the years. But far beyond me, I also wanted to make it clear how grateful I am for your supporting our local community and?female run businesses. Cheers to another 20 years of matchmaking and spreading more love in this world! #20years #celebration #networking #LinxDating #Linxladies #areyoulinked

?? The Power of a Strong Network ?? ??“Your network is your net worth.” – Porter Gale, author and former VP of Marketing at Virgin America In the professional world, we often talk about the importance of building a strong network for career growth, new opportunities, and personal development. But, sometimes, the connections we make can lead to something even more extraordinary—finding a life partner. I recently witnessed a beautiful example of this when two incredible individuals, each with their own goals and dreams, crossed paths through my network. Several years ago, my friend and fellow matchmaker, Shannon Lundgren of Shannon's Circle?reached out to me, wondering if I had any potential matches for her client Douglas Spreng?and went on to share his ideal match criteria with me. ? Remarkably, a name popped into my head - Peggy Lucchesi?- someone whom I had screened as a prospect many years before, who had really made a lasting impression on me. ?I remember sitting on the couch with her, feeling her grace, huge heart, gentle spirit and kindness. ?I didn’t even need to do a database search because I knew instantly that she would be the one. Sure enough, I contacted her, found out she was still single, and we proceeded to make the introduction. What started as a simple connection, for this extraordinary couple, quickly blossomed into something deeper, and today, they stand side by side as partners in life, having tied the knot here in the Bay Area this last weekend. This story is a powerful reminder that our networks are more than just career tools; they are communities of people who can bring unexpected joy and fulfillment into our lives. I will never forget when Peggy brought me a dancing stuffed birthday bear toy for my newborn baby boy all those years ago, soon after I had given birth. It was a token of her appreciation and cemented a lasting, positive impression. As the great Maya Angelou once said, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” So, to everyone out there building connections, remember—your network might just help you find more than a new job or opportunity. It might help you find the person who will walk beside you on life’s journey. ???? #Networking #Relationships #Love #Community #Connection #SiliconValley

Just In- a new client review of Linx Dating. Grateful and wow! "Amy nails the art and science of matchmaking and she is one of the best in the business. Her company, Linx, has a robust network of quality individuals--each one of my matches was intelligent, successful, and commitment-minded. I am time and time again impressed by Amy's intuition, her responsiveness to inquiries big and small, and her refreshingly honest advice about dating do's and don'ts. She is a savvy businesswoman who carries herself with grace, so I can't help but admire her for the network and reputation she has built over the last 20 years."

Excited to welcome Caroline Novia to the Linx Dating team as a Business Development Associate! Her expertise and passion are invaluable, and we can't wait to see the amazing contributions she'll bring to our team. Here's to a bright future ahead!

Over the past 20 years, Linx has positioned itself as the top global matchmaking firm by refusing to settle for anything less than unparalleled excellence. Amy Andersen founded the company with the mission to give high-caliber individuals a more private, premium, and high-yield alternative to dating on their own. Linx prides itself on?its stellar reputation…?its membership has been built?organically over 20 years by word-of-mouth recommendations and has grown into one of the most sought-after private networks of vetted single men and?women in the world. Locally, in Silicon Valley, Linx represents clients at tech companies including Apple, Meta, Amazon, Google, Netflix and recognizable venture capital firms such as Andreessen Horowitz, to name just a few. Linx Dating also represents select?founders & CEOs, celebrities, prominent public figures, and members of high?profile domestic and international families. Linx’s matchmaking is tailor-made for people who have worked on themselves, are ready to make a long-term commitment and are clear on what they seek in a partner. ?They are ready to jump two feet into the process and find it appealing that Linx is niche and works with only a select number of clients annually. If we were to drill down on the core “niche” of Linx, it would be elite, high-net-worth clientele, and other highly educated professionals who are commitment-minded. Our clientele demand privacy and discretion and recognize time as one of their most precious commodities. This means that swiping on an app to find “the one” becomes arguably less appealing.

Another great team meeting in the books for Linx Dating! So proud of our incredible small but mighty team and the work we're doing behind the scenes. From client searches to creative brainstorming, it's all happening. Stay tuned for more updates as we can't wait to share what's in store! Dani Geary & Caroline Novia #teammeeting

Did you know that over 50% of couples avoid discussing finances altogether? For newly married couples, the decision to merge finances can feel overwhelming. Imagine this: You and your partner collaborate to create a comprehensive household budget, covering everything from rent to groceries. Instead of fully merging accounts, consider a hybrid approach. Maintain separate accounts for personal spending while also opening a joint account for shared expenses. This strategy promotes financial autonomy while nurturing a sense of collective responsibility. It also encourages open dialogue about financial priorities and individual contributions.
