Hey guys, just had a thought. I'm a maintenance worker, plumbing, electrics, carpentry, gardening etc, basically trades work. I'm thinking of getting some business cards done, for legitimate work reasons, private jobs etc, but perhaps it could also lead to dates. I can number close, but this was a thought.

Like say you get speaking to a girl, instead of putting so much pressure on yourself, when you feel some attraction is built, use a false time constraint, and head off, giving them your card.

If anyone has used it? Maybe it can appear less needy, less forceful etc.

Chel.

Try it and let us know :D It could come off suave. It also makes it pretty easy for them to flake and gives you less control in Day2's, you can only control yourself so you may as well put as much control in yourself!

That's very well said.

I don't really day game, my game is best for night. It all went downhill when I got into my last relationship just ent, and I wont make the mistake again.

I agree, it makes it easier for them to flake, but if attraction is there, and you seem friendly enough, tme sending you a text may not be a hard thing.

I need to up my day game soon.

I don't recommend the business card because that requires the girl to call YOU. Most women will not.

Its better to get her number so you can contact her when you are ready instead of sitting by the phone waiting for a call like someone with a vagina would do.

I do agree, but I'd use it for day game, for example if I'm out shopping, strictly for experimental purposes . Of course we want and should get the power, and make them wonder, when will we call.

I still may give it a try, but wont break away from trying to number close the ordinary way.

Having a card is great if she's got a bf and you just want to be friends, or if one of you is a real rush and you don't have time to exchange numbers properly. It is a low-risk, low-reward strategy because most hot girls have lots of guys calling them so they don't need to call anyone, especially not when it's them risking making a first move and possibly having an awkward conversation.

Unless you have an impressive title (CEO, President, International Spy) it probably won't make much of a difference than just giving the girl your number. Only difference is it's on a rectangular piece of paper (that can easily be lost/thrown away) instead of her phone.

haha my take is that if you are using these cards to meet women your delivery will make or break it. I would NOT just simply give them your card, women of value are usually too busy to call the guy they met for 5 minutes - assuming thats what the situation is. I would tell them 'hey, I'm actually in a hurry, but lets exchange cards(while handing her yours) She will likely say that she doesn't have a card and thats when you whip out your phone and let her put her number in.' - Now I am thinking that in a small way the act of giving her your card could initiate the 'law of reciprocation' - once you give her something, she will want to give you something back. If she does have a card great! then you have her number and she will know when that awesome guy is calling her (you).

I prefer to stay away from this kind of thing because talking to women/people for 5-10 minutes isn't enough for me to determine whether they are crazy or not and I am just not into giving them my personal business information so fast. I lwt my game to do the talking. But I might experiment with some kind of joke profession on the card for fun!

Business wise it will help you as most girls can't do any of the crap that you do. Game wise it won't really help you any. As its a business card. And you are putting the ball in the hand of the girl so she can call the shots, not you.

Unless you are very very good looking or your business card says "casino owner", "music manager" or something similar you stand very little chance of improving your "game" with this technique.

Mainly because what you are implying is that she is gonna call you and that's where your flaw is.
See here is how it works.

1. With very little effort you can get a random girl to accept your friend request on facebook

2. With a little more effort you can get her number, but she probably won't answer.

3. With pretty decent effort in your approach you'll get her number, she will pick up and you will go on a date.

4. With a fucking shit ton of effort and charming she will actually call you. Yes it works but is it worth the trouble? Isn't it just easier to call her?

I agree, and I posted strictly out of curiosity. I was only going to hand out cards if I got speaking and in all honesty didn't hold so much interest, making me not want to close. Then again, could always promote work too.

I've thought about it, but to me it would be weird because

1) what if she's a psycho and calls at work?
2) I don't want people calling me at my cube where other people can hear. I might write my number on the back of the card though...

Years ago I used to do a routine with business cards I called MVP. I had my regular business cards but also purchased about 50 SOLID BRASS ones. Typically I would go into a bar with a ton of HB's and show them my paper card then the SOLID BRASS one...most chicks thought it was pretty cool and wanted the brass card.I would go into a routine that the solid brass one was for the MVP of the night and such an item had to be "earned." Chicks would ask "so, what does one have to do to 'earn' the MVP?" That is like shooting fish in a barrel. The solid brass business card was a great peacocking tool and gave chicks an excuse for kino. Good Luck!
