When I got in the game in 2001, I focusedexclusively on bars and clubs. The only times I approached outsidethose venues was on the street after last call on mostly drunkgirls who would simply ignore me. I admit that back then I neededboth alcohol and loud music to help me with my approaches,especially the latter, which would soften the silences caused by myweak conversational skills.

It took me a couple of years to startfiguring out night game, and during that time any success I had wasa big deal, a validation of all the energy and money I spenton going out several times a week. Even a little make out would besomething worthy of patting myself on the back for. The end wasjustifying the means.

Until it no longer did.

I hit a plateau with the quality of girls Iwas able to get in bars while noticing hotter girls walking aroundduring the day instead of hanging out at the same night venues Ifrequented. I also noticed that I was inadvertently developing twodifferent games: one for getting laid and another for bitching outcockblockers and stupid girls. I was spending a considerable amountof energy not even trying to score but dealing with badattitudes.

At about that same time, I started spendinga lot of time in coffee shops. I didnt just go for a half hourIdstay for long four or five-hour work sessions. As long as I went toa coffee shop that was crowded, there was always an opportunity tochat with a cute girl who was alone. I immediately picked up onsomething interesting: girls in coffee shops were five times nicerthan girls in the clubs. They were respectful without insulting meand our conversations werent interrupted by fat friends or randomdrunk people who were trying to fuck up my approach. I loved howcoffee shop girls were already isolated and more open to having achat, so I began to be more mindful about finding girls during theday.

Even though I was having lots of chats withgirls at coffee shops, I wasnt getting numbers. A few minutes in,the girl would politely step back from the conversation. I wasntsure why. My strategy up to that point was simply duplicating mycocky night game.

Without any bangs to show for it, I put daygame aside, not realizing that an entirely different game wasneeded. I went back into the night trenches, becoming more hardenedand bitter in the process.

A chance conversation changed everything,and is the reason youre reading this book right now. I started achat with a Moroccan girl in a coffee shop by asking her what bookshe was reading, talking about it for at least five minutes. Iwasnt being cocky and besides a light joke here or there, I didntdisplay any of the qualities that usually got me somewhere withgirls at night. In my head, I got on myself for having such aboring, low-energy chat, imagining that she was thinking that Idjust woke up from a several-hour nap. Eventually I made an offhandcomment about visiting Venezuela for ten days, which she inquiredabout. Then she asked for my name and next thing I knew she wasbasically interviewing me.

I didnt realize it at the time, but theboring chat I had with that girl was actually the optimalconversation for day game. The first piece of the puzzle was laidright before me, but it wasnt until five years later that I feltconfident enough to teach this game to other men. While Ivebrought in some of the features that made me successful at night, Iforced myself to reinvent everything and start with a clean slateto build the best game possible. Through good old trial-and-errorand hard work, I developed a model that I believe is the best wayto meet attractive women outside of the nightlife scene. The systemyoure about to read has not only worked consistently for me, butmen who Ive taught in my day game workshops. My experience andtheirs will soon become yours.

The truth is that almost every instance ofday game Ive seen in the wild has been absolutely horrendoussobad that it pained me watch. Bad game affects my sensibilities muchmore than the average guy, to the point that Id rather watch a100-man anal gang bang without condoms than listen to a guy openwith, So, do you got a man? If you apply only half of what Imabout to teach you, youll have blown away 98% of guys who haveever approached during the day. Im not kidding. I may not be ableto say that at night, where the standard of game is much higher,but during the daya time where guys are either too scared toapproach or dont know howjust using my openers will set you farapart and get your foot in the door more often than not.

Throughout this book Im going to make theassumption that you have a basic grasp of game, that youve donesome approaches, gotten some bangs, and have a strategy for how todate women. If not, I strongly recommend that you read my bookBang. While mostly focusing on night venues, it offers acomplete approach-to-sex framework that will also apply to girlsyou meet during the day. In addition, it includes a text messagingguide for getting dates. Ill briefly touch on text messaging here,but if you need more in-depth instruction, refer to Bang .

Before we dive into the actual model youlluse to approach women during the day, I first have to prepare yourmind for the work youre about to undertake. If youre alreadyapproaching during the day, you can breeze through this section.Otherwise, I recommend you read slow and think carefully about therecommendations I make.

If youve dabbled in night game for a while,I dont need to tell you that the reality of game can be brutal.Sleeping with girls from cold approaching is perhaps the mostlabor-intensive method to get laid, involving a lot of frustrationand disappointment. But its one that consistently works. Its atool available to any man with legs and a voice box, regardless ifhe spends eight hours a day in front of a computer screen or has asmall social circle that only contains ugly girls.

Assuming you have weak game and averageconversational skills, youll get a number from 5% of your dayapproaches. The average I see from men who come to me for trainingis 7.5%. My best students get almost a 30% close rate percentageand I personally dont achieve any higher than occasional streaksof 50%. These estimations include low-probability approaches on thestreet, so they can be doubled if you develop a niche day venue (ifI only approach in coffee shops or bookstores, for example,consistent 50% rates arent uncommon). With months of practice onyour part, you should be able to achieve 20%. Unfortunately, somemen hit a ceiling before others due to limitations outside of theircontrol, and cant seem to go higher no matter how hard they work,but that ceiling will take years to hit and will always be higherthan if you didnt practice game at all.

No matter how amazing your day game gets,you wont be able to get more than an overall 40% close rate.Therefore, 60% of your approaches will be dead in the water beforethe first word even comes out of your mouth. This is because mostwomen are in a serious relationship, have fuck buddies, are in abad mood from PMS, are homosexual, or are experiencing a herpesflare-up that makes them suicidal. Only 40% of girls at any pointare even open to talking to a guy, and a percentage of those wouldrather eat molten hot lead than go out with you on a date. If youwere the last man on earth, they still wouldnt fuck you, andtheres no game in the world that could change such a firmdecision.

Even when your game is tight, youll stillget blown off. A watershed moment in my own game development waswhen I was in my mid-20s. A girl I was dating told me about a partyshe had gone to that had a handful of famous people. While in theline to the bathroom, the lead singer of Limp Bizkit, Fred Durst,hit on her with a do-you-know-who-I-am type of game. That was atthe height of his fame. She laughed at him and turned around.
