Who are Practical Pickup?

The answer to this question begins with a story.

It was some time in the summer of 2007. Mark had just given another talk at a local meet-up group for single men on how to pick up girls. Almost 60 attended this time around. Mingling with the attendees afterward, Mark joked to his friend, “You know, I get just as many phone numbers from men these days as I do women. There’s no way I can hang out with even half of the guys who invite me out after these things.”

His friend replied, “Dude, you should start charging money to go out with you. Tell them you’ll watch them and give them advice — you know, coach them.”

Mark laughed, “Get real. Guys would never pay for something like that.”

To his surprise, by the end of the year, he was taking guys out almost every weekend for small fees and teaching them to pick up girls. He soon learned of other guys in the area who were doing the same and in January of 2008, three of these freelance coaches came together to offer a small workshop. It all began merely as an experiment…

…But that workshop sold out in two days.

Practical Pickup was born and has steadily expanded its outreach to men in need of dating help. We’re dating coaches. We specialize in advising men in their pursuits within their love lives — be it finding a girlfriend, wife, playing the field or the next one night stand.

Been There, Done That, Got The T-Shirt…

So you’re probably thinking, “That’s great, but what the hell do these guys know anyway?”

Well, truth be told…

Our coaches started out from pretty low places.

They’ve had women not return their calls. They’ve had long-term girlfriends dump them for other men. They’ve had women blow them off. They’ve stuttered, stammered, freaked out, chickened out, blown it and choked up over the same things you do…

…But they overcame it.

And are now living lifestyles that most men can’t even imagine.

By studying evolutionary psychology, sociobiology, and social dynamics — through social experimentation of literally talking to THOUSANDS of women — our coaches can break down the components of a successful love life and apply it TO YOU. Learn how to get a girlfriend with our dating tips.

For instance, guys who come to us typically need help in at least one of these categories:

• Confidence, Self-Esteem, Anxieties – Men, with rare exception, are ALWAYS expected to initiate and escalate the interaction. Many guys have a lot of things going for them, but can’t seem to work up the nerve to approach that girl, to go in for the kiss, to ask her back to his place — and they end up losing the girl because of it. Some guys get so caught up in their head worrying about what she thinks of them, whether she likes them or not, why she hasn’t called yet, etc., that they become tortured with worry and doubt.

• Lifestyle – There are a lot of great guys out there who simply don’t have a lot going for them at the moment. They may be in a hard time of their life. Perhaps they just got divorced and lost most of what they owned. They lack hobbies or good health, a strong circle of friends or a satisfying job. All of these things make up your lifestyle and building an attractive lifestyle is one of the most crucial elements of attracting women.

• Conversation Skills, Social Intelligence – Many men are shy or grew up extremely sheltered and haven’t been exposed to a wide range of social situations. They haven’t developed the social acuity they’re capable of and because of it always face a disadvantage when meeting new women. They don’t know how to express themselves as well as they’d like to or how to relate to the woman the way they should.

• Flirting, Being Sexual, Building Attraction – Without getting onto a tangent or rant here about our post-feminist society, almost EVERY man we come across either doesn’t know how to flirt well or isn’t comfortable expressing his sexuality. If there’s one thing that separates the “players” from everyone else, this is it. And we can teach you how to develop it.

  But let’s get serious for a minute…
  

  What do YOU Want?

  Sure, I could sit here and prattle on about what WE do all day, but really it comes down to what YOU want.

  It really is amazing… if you sit down and ask most people bluntly, “What do you want?” they have trouble giving you a straight answer.

  Ask yourself this right now…

  …is it a new girlfriend?
  …is it learning to start conversations with women at any time?
  …is it to sleep with a lot of different women?
  …is it to get over some anxiety or fear that keeps bothering you?

  It’s important to ask yourself this as no one can help you until you figure out exactly what you want.

  It’s for this reason we’ve developed a flexible regiment of services we provide. Be it simple phone calls and advice, enumerating specific skill-sets and having you practice them, or actually taking you into a venue and showing you how it’s done ourselves, we’re willing to work around your needs.
