[quote=SmokinV10] I think the tricks to dates is to do the same thing. Dates are basically excersises in sales. You are marketing a product...you. In the sales pitch you are trying to stragically close on the customer (her) based on how much revenue you would like to take from them. If she is merely ok, and you dont want to establish a rapport with the customer, then you close, and close fast. But if the customer is a fortune 500 company (a keeper) you may want to develop that rapport so that continued sales are possible in the future. In any exercise you would like to eliminate as many degrees of freedom as possible. So I dont mean take them to the same damn restaurant. But depending on what they like to eat, you can develop a whole routine. You get to the point where you have canned responses for every situation and every question. For each type of personality you learn to identify with the appropriate response. You know what makes them laugh, and what it takes to get them smiling and feeling romantic. You start to know the places to go with the high maintenance ones, the sporty ones, and the basic ones. Dating is refining your sales skills. The commission is the best part. <hr /></blockquote>
