#139 - Online Dating With a Difference, Making Real Connections - with Dennie Smith

Love-Listen-Talk-Repeat Podcast with Wendy Capewell

Dennie Smith describes herself as a passionate, determined, and crazy lady.

She is currently running 2 businesses, a hair salon, and a geek networking app.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT

I met Dennie on Linkedin, and soon discovered what a vibrant woman she is. She shies away from nothing, and if a project doesn’t seem to be working, she picks herself up, dusts herself off, and moves on.

Online dating is a minefield, and large dating sites aren’t as rigorous as Dennie in verifying applicants. So she decided to open her own. But with a difference, instead of focusing on ‘dating’ it’s a platform where people can connect related to their hobbies, or special interests or passions. So, she created ‘ Geek Meet ‘

BIO

At age 57 she took a huge gamble and bought a run-down hair salon. It was doing very well until covid hit. Now is spending lots of time and money to get it back up to pre covid times.

At the same time, she opened a children’s boutique next to the salon, which sadly didn’t do well so is closing it and running it online only. Oopsie Daisies.

Interior design is her passion, she has attended many courses over the years and she launched an interior design business Redmonds interiors just before covid. She had one client when lockdown arrived. . She is not pursuing that as is now concentrating on the salon, Geek Meet club, and writing her autobiography.

Ever creative and tenacious, Dennie created an online dating site to find her daughter a gent. Alas, she is still single and the traditional dating club is now being run by her friend and dating expert Sarah Louise Ryan. Although Dennie still has a role in the company.

That didn’t deter her and one year ago she created Geek Meet, online dating for yes geeks! Still struggling with this she decided to re-brand/relaunch.

Dennie doesn’t yet have a launch date, as the platform needs some refining, but you can join the waiting list below, or connect with her on Social Media, where she will keep you up to date.
