Starting Your Own iShadchan

When you decide to start your own iShadchan here is what to do:
  • email me at ishadchan@gmail.com saying you want to start an iShadchan group
  • along with the email send me a list of  5 to 10 married friends' email addresses so that i can send them the spreadsheet. Rather keep the group small and start a few separate spreadsheets than to have one spreadsheet sent to all your contacts (you can always add a friend later, just send me their email address)
  • you can add the same name to separate spreadsheets, being that it is shared with different people     
  • tell your married friends to visit iShadchan.blogspot.com so that they can read about it, and know what to do when they receive the link 
  • i will then send you the spreadsheet that you can add names to*
  • once you have added names i will send your iShadchan spreadsheet to you friends
  • only add the names of single people you know (i.e. you can acquire their resume if needed)
  • when you add a name, it automatically updates everyone else's spreadsheet (make sure to save changes) 
  • please make sure to look at the Example Spreadsheet further down this page, so that you fill it out correctly   
  • i will also post a link to the spreadsheet on this website allowing other people to only view the names
  • when you receive an iShadchan spreadsheet link do not forward it to other people, just add your single friends to it 

* If you do not have a gmail account, you have to create one in order to have full access to the spreadsheet (i.e. adding names). You can use any existing email address to set it up. It does not have to be an @gmail account. Please click on this link to set up your account now. https://www.google.com/accounts/NewAccount?continue=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.co.il%2F&hl=en
