I did a few cold approaches at the mall today. My personal goal was to get one number close attempt in in, and I did it. Here is what happened.
Location: Old Hickory Mall. Jackson, Tennessee.
Goal: Christmas Shopping for my family while doing cold approaches in between and at least one number close attempt.
!: Attractive white woman who told me off the bat she was shopping for her fiancee. Short but decent conversation, no close.
2. Mature black woman shopping for kids. Decent conversation but little interest in me, no close.
3. Said Hello to a girl outside a store, girl immediately walks away.
4. Very attractive Asian worker. Good approach compared to most I've done. I had her laughing and reciprocating. When I said "We should continue this conversation some other time, put your number in my phone", she started laughing and I told her to "Not be Afraid" along with some other ****y and funny things. In the end, she said she was talking to another man at the moment, and didn't want to give me her number. Though she teased me with "Maybe, if you'll come back I'll do it for you." I finished up my shopping a second time and told her "Last chance", and just like maybe=no in Pook's ********, she said the same thing, and I said she was making excuses. I closed but not succesfully.
5. Average white woman worker at a store. Conversation was good, but she was busy, and I wasn't attracted to her enough to close.
6. Hispanic woman worker who was too busy playing with ornaments to engage in conversation.
7. Black woman worker that I had decent conversation with but, there didn't seem much interest from her, no close.
8. Black worker who I tried to engage but wouldn't get out of work mode. No close.
This really is the worst time of the year for pick-ups. I'm not phased by my lack of success though. I did achieve my goal of a number close, albeit an unsuccessful one. I want to close a 2 or 3-set of women next, successfully or unsuccessfully.
Are these normal results or am I just not quite good at the PU yet?
