5 Reasons You're Not Getting Matches on Lox Club & How to Fix

The Lox Club dating app is an exclusive dating app, that's the whole point. But "exclusive" is also code for a "smaller dating pool." That's why it's even more important to stand out and get attention. You don't have the thousands upon thousands of users you might find on Tinder, such that appealing to a small percentage still works.

On Lox Club, there might only be a handful of perfect matches for you in your current city, so you really need to make the right first impression on those folks.

Luckily, Lox Club provides tools to help you make the most of the app. From a matchmaker that will help you choose the right photos to profile prompts that bring out your sparkling personality. You just need to make the most of those resources to make sure you're getting the matches you need to make the app worthwhile.

#1: Don't hesitate to brag

Like other elite dating apps, Lox Club isn't shy about saying that your career matters. So now's the time to show off the promotion you just received, or to mention your corner office.

#2: Be ambitions

Lox Club asks about your ambitions— there's a whole ambitions section—so this is another area to show off. If you want to be president someday (or just president of your company) now's the time to say so.

#3: The pictures should match the words

If you list one of your goals as making CEO, then at least one of your pictures better show you wearing a suit. Photos at major events are also welcome. You need to prove you'll make good arm candy at exclusive events.

#4: Be thoughtful in your prompt replies

If you couldn't write a thoughtful answer, you wouldn't have made the cut for the app. So don't give your best stuff just to the selection committee. Remember that to get a good match, you need to sell yourself in your prompt answers. So no one-word replies here.

#5: Stay active on the app

Your potential matches are limited, and they refresh regularly. So you need to check the app at least a couple of times a day if you want to make the most of it. Be sure to log on and see who's on offer—and be thoughtful about your swipes, too. The virtual matchmaker is always watching.

#6: Follow up with messages quickly

Another reason to log on often is to make sure you can send a note when you've made a match. The best time to spark up a conversation is within 24 hours of getting the match (the sooner, the better.) Wait too long and she might get a better offer.

#7: Sell your personality and your lifestyle

Your profile is the chance to share what it's like to date you. So if you're attending fancy dinners and premiers, your photos should reflect that. And if you're a homebody who's an amazing chef, show that off instead.

Some apps have a major gender divide. Maybe it's because Lox Club is still relatively new, but so far it doesn't seem that either men or women have a big advantage. That means that at least for now, everyone needs to bring their A-game.

#1: Go to Lox Club events

Okay, so this is only partially an app tip. But the app advertises events, so close enough. It's hard to tell what you're getting online, even with the higher standards of Lox Club. The best way to really find a good catch is at one of the Lox Club exclusive events.

#2: Think "classy" when it comes to photos

Lox Club advertises itself in a particular way, and it's important to mesh with the vibe if you're going to be successful on this app. That means when it comes to "sexy" think little black dress and save the bikini photos for Tinder.

#3: Share your own career goals

Lox Club is an app for the career-minded and ambitious—regardless of gender. So don't hesitate to share if you love your job or if you're chasing that next big promotion.

#4: Don't be shy about what you're looking for

Lox Club tends more toward serious relationships than hookups, so there's no need to be coy about what you're looking for. This isn't the time to appeal to everyone, it's a chance to be choosy. (And if you want to get married, say so.)

#5: Share your future ambitions

Although similar to what you're looking for in a partner, your future ambitions for yourself are also important to share. Whether you're climbing the career ladder or building a family, making sure you're a match on these points will decide whether a relationship works in the long term.
