Chemistry.com Goes After eHarmony

Monday April 30, 2007
Dating Web site Chemistry.com is going after competitor eHarmony.com in a $10 million ad campaign debuting this week. The campaign uses "rejected" eHarmony clients with lines like "We don't know why eHarmony has rejected over a million people looking for love" with a rubber stamp-like graphic featuring the words "Rejected by eHarmony." The ads label eHarmony as a place where people are shot down before they even go on a date. The focus of the campaign is to raise awareness of the Chemistry.com brand and its parent company Match.com.

eHarmony.com is increasing its ad spending for 2007. In 2006, the company spent $117 million.

One of my friends is getting married next year to the woman of his dreams. They’re perfect for each other and they see each other as soul-mates. They also have alot in common, including the fact that they’re both eHarmony rejects!
