USA TODAY -- Feb 17 -- Charges run the gamut - $45 for an e-mail, up to $250 for a phone consultation and as much as $1,500 for face-to-face meetings over a period of time. Some will shadow a date and film the encounters to show their clients where they erred. Others take the Hitch approach and will even tutor on-the-spot with clever comebacks as they go to the grocery store or on errands with their clients. David Wygant, for $10,000, will even move in for the weekend and provide 24/7 access to his wisdom for the next three months.
