That definitely works well. I think you've got the hang of it. On the off chance that someone doesn't respond well to that, it'll likely be because they're either young or inexperienced. But you're covering all your bases if you respond to such inquiries like that, so you won't get in trouble and people will be able to see that you're reasonable and helpful. Most everyone will be accepting of a statement like that, especially since your'e offering to help them out in finding a better match for them. You may even find that some people will just adapt to your rules, even if it's not exactly what they're looking for. The nicer you are to everyone, the more luck you'll have with these types of things.
