Early Life and Education
Blaine Anderson was raised in Tucson, Arizona as an only child. During her youth, she was socially active, participating in sports such as soccer, swimming, and lacrosse. Anderson attended the University of Arizona where she studied. It was during her undergraduate years that she began informally advising her male friends on how to date her sorority sisters, laying the groundwork for her future career.
Career Beginnings in the Travel Industry
Prior to her career as a dating coach, Blaine Anderson worked in the travel industry. In this role, she planned bespoke trips for clients, organizing itineraries for occasions like honeymoons and anniversaries to international destinations. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the travel sector, leading to Anderson losing her job and moving back in with her parents. This period of unemployment prompted her to consider a new career path.
Launch of Dating by Blaine
In 2020, encouraged by her then-boyfriend and now-husband, Anderson decided to formalize her informal dating advice into a business. She created her first online dating course, initially finding clients by creating profiles on dating apps like Hinge and Bumble where she advertised her coaching services. This strategy, though not sustainable due to being removed from the platforms, validated the demand for her expertise.
Anderson’s business, “Dating by Blaine,” was officially launched in mid-2020. The company’s revenue saw significant growth, from $22,000 in its first year to nearly $1 million by 2022.
Coaching Philosophy and Business Growth
Dating by Blaine provides coaching services exclusively for men, with the central philosophy that dating for men is a “marketing problem.” Anderson’s programs aim to teach men how to present themselves authentically and effectively to attract partners. The services offered include online courses, one-on-one coaching, and matchmaking. Her curriculum covers topics such as creating dating profiles, texting, and building confidence.
The business has been featured in numerous media outlets, including NBC, Cosmopolitan, Forbes, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal. In 2023, Anderson appeared on the reality television show Shark Tank. Although she received an offer, she ultimately decided not to proceed with the deal, stating that introducing outside capital would add unnecessary complexity to her profitable and lean business model.
Personal Life
Blaine Anderson is married and resides in Austin, Texas. She has a dog named Dee Dee and a cat named Cedar. Anderson often references her husband as a source of support, particularly in the early stages of her business.
