Janis Spindel, of Janis Spindel Serious Matchmaking, Inc., is an upscale matchmaker, author, and entrepreneur.

She started her business, Janis Spindel Serious Matchmaking, Inc. in 1993.[1] According to her website, she created this business after she had matched fourteen different couples together and they all ended up getting married within one year.[2][3][4] Her company is headquartered in New York City on the Upper East Side of Manhattan[5] and in the summer months, she opens up her office out in the Hamptons in addition to her headquarters in New York.[3] Although she is located in New York, she travels all over the country and even Canada for her clients.[6] Her website was launched in 2005.[7] She originally worked with both men and women as her clients, but has now narrowed down her clientele to only men[5][8] and she specializes in upscale professionals[9] who range in ages of 27 to 78.[6]

Spindel is a former fashion executive.[10] Prior to matchmaking, she was the proprietor of 9 retail locations of "Mommy and Me.[3]"
