I created dating business cards for my single friends — it’s a great icebreaker
When it comes to dating, she means business.
A New York woman has proven to be the ultimate wing-woman after creating hundreds of dating business cards for her single friend — which she said is a great “icebreaker.”
She detailed her pickup tactic in a video with nearly 550,000 views on TikTok.
“I won’t stop until she finds a husband,” Natalie Abatemarco, 25 captioned the clip, which shows the content creator and her friends handing out the cat-calling cards like flyers.
The printed personals include a picture of her bestie — who has opted to remain anonymous — a QR code linking to her buddy’s social media and a bio about her pal.
As she describes in the clip’s caption, “She rocks and deserves someone who thinks this is hilarious.”
The East Village native, who frequently documents her life in the Big Apple on TikTok, originally dreamt up the idea in 2022 as a Secret Santa gift for her best friend, South West News Service reported.
The Post reached out to Abatemarco for additional comment.
“I wanted to make a gift that would be useful but get a giggle from my friends,” said Abatemarco, who described her singleton pal as “super outgoing” with an “incredible personality.”
She hoped the business cards would showcase both her friend’s serious career traits as well as her “playful” side, thereby increasing her value in the romantic marketplace.
“I love my friends so much and I wanted people to see what I see in her and I thought this was the best way,” said Abatemarco, who spent $20 to print out 500 of these brick-and-mortar dating profiles.
“She was so shocked and I don’t think she was expecting anything like what I gave her,” the Manhattanite claimed.
The influencer said the duo then paraded around New York City “handing out the cards to people she thought were cute.”
While the unorthodox pickup tactic has yet to bear fruit, Abatemarco doesn’t regret her decision in the slightest. “It was a great icebreaker, she didn’t go on any formal dates but it was a lot of fun,” she said. “It makes out evening so much better when we go out — it always ended up in a funny situation.”
She added, “If I was single I would definitely use these — I am going to print out some more.”
Abatemarco, who previously made headlines for taking up babysitting to earn money amid inflation, isn’t the first to revert to unorthodox guy-fishing tactics in the age of digital dating.
Last month, proud gold digger Karolina Geits took dating ads to new heights after expressing her desire for a wealthy husband over an airplane intercom.
Her stunt might seem like an attention-grabbing gimmick, but Geits claims that she shuns matchmaking apps.
“I prefer meeting people in person, as I feel it leads to more genuine connections,” declared the influencer, who insists she wants real love.
“I won’t deny that a rich husband is something I desire,” she said. “It’s not because I’m materialistic or shallow. I know what I want, and I’m unapologetic about pursuing it.”
