"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Well every year one my football teams fundraisers is to sell these cards with a lot of crap on them to save money, they have stuff for food places to other stores and what not. I wanna be more interesting than "hi would you like to buy a card". Everyone on the team has to sell 20 cards by thursday, if we do that we all get some cold gear underarmour.

If anyone can help thanks.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Most of the time people want a lot value in what they are buying, and I think this is a good one.

Going door to door is a good idea.
Calculate all the money they are saving by buying the cards. Add it up so it so sounds like it is alot of money, then let them know what the low and great price is.

With good eye contact, a good relaxed outfit and a winning smile with your teeth showing. It will be very easy.

The key is to have slow, comfortable speech. Explain what the cards are for and, like bbestar said, point out how much they can potentially save by purchasing one of those cards. Also, like when you're talking to a girl, don't act desperate.

This is one of the few fundraisers I am willing to give my money to. These cards can have some great deals. I don't have any selling advice to you, but you shouldn't have a problem selling them

My girlfriend bought one. I am going to use some of the coupons to buy mma equipment that I was planning on purchasing anyway. Just those few coupons alone recoup the cost of the coupon book itself.

The first person you have to sell your product to is yourself. Emotion is contagious. If you believe that your product is a good deal, then your prospect will believe the same. Do you see how this also relates to meeting girls and having confidence in yourself? Much of sales training is very similar to the how-to-meet women methods. Some of the pua gurus have sales backgrounds.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
