A single man who is desperate to find a girlfriend has purchased a massive billboard advertising himself out to potential bachelorettes.
UK man Mark Rofe has been single for more than a year and noticed all of his friends are getting married while he struggles to land a date.
Insteadof sitting on his backside, he decided to put himself on the market, paying NZ$850 to advertise his website where interested women can submit an application to date the 30-year-old.
The billboard, which sits in Manchester, 3m high and 6m wide, with a photo of Mark laying down and the caption: "Single? Date Mark. This could be the sign you've been waiting for."
"I'm Mark, an extremely handsome and modest 30-year-old living in Sheffield. I work in marketing, and if you're reading this, then I must be pretty OK at it," he wrote on his website.
Appearing on Australian TV's Today show on Monday, the self-proclaimed "extremely handsome" single, even tried to woo newsreader Tracy Vo.
"I don't know how you want to do it Tracy? I can come to you or you can come here," he said, albeit tongue-in-cheek, when asked if he'd consider dating an Australian.
Rofe, who jokes he has kissed "over three" women, works in marketing but insists his campaign is totally legitimate.
He describes himself as "extremely handsome and modest".
Rofe revealed he has so far had over 1500 applicants and is adamant he will find love.
