How to get ice cold leads instantly interested in you

I said to the left-wing environmental journalist & Bernie worshipper I took out to the bar.
This was just two weeks before Trump got elected.
And, what happened was this:
I took her to a local bar full of caddies. My town has two top 10 golf courses, lots of caddies — and to paraphrase Charles Bukowski... they all hang at this one bar like flies on the same turd.
Anyway, we saw a caddie one of her friends used to date.
And, three chicks sat next to him at the bar.
I said, “do you think he’ll get any of them?”
She said, “no, all these caddies are boring.”
We watched a while, and she wasn't kidding — you could smell the boredom. And so I said: “You know what he needs to do to get the one next to him interested in him, and ignoring all the other guys here hitting on her?”
“What?”
“He needs to find something to disagree with her about.”
“Like what?”
“Saying, ‘You know, Trump had a point about women…’ would thaw her out.”
And, being a Trump-hater, she reluctantly had to admit, it was true (it worked on her, after all...) And, yes, the woman I am with today would tell you the same thing. Especially since, a big reason why she fell for me is precisely because I would say things she completely disagreed with, and then the banter would begin. (She has said many times since, if you’d asked her two years ago if she would ever have dated, much less fallen for, a guy like Yours Obnoxious, she'd have said you were nuts, especially since I did not check off *any* of the “must haves” on her checklist of political views in a man...)
Anyway, there’s a valuable persuasion lesson here:
Boredom = death of persuasion.
Which is why, whether in an email or when on a date… you are better off risking being offensive to someone than being boring to everyone.

I've decided to swap out today's Hallmark holiday with a better one, and I am having a celebration sale for something that can dramatically help men do better both with attracting and keeping high-quality women and also with attracting and keeping high-quality clients & customers.
I’ve only offered this to paying “Email Players” subscribers in the past.
And, never to the general public.
