1. Establish alpha male dominance. My friend Dillinger, a fellow NYC
pickup artist and frequent wingman, has an extraordinary routine he
uses on each and every new woman he meets. I've seen it work on
supermodels, investment bankers, and even a B-list television actress.
He simply growls in her face and tosses a drink at her. Then,
without explanation, he calls the woman an "asshole" and takes a cab
back to his place alone. Works every time.

2. Develop physical rapport as quickly as possible. Women love a guy
who knows how to get physical -- and remain confident. Within the
pickup artist community, we call it P.R. -- short for physical
rapport. Do you know what the most SENSITIVE area of a woman's body
is? It's not her legs, breasts, hands or feet. Are you ready for this?
It's her eyes. Touch a girl's eyes: offer to take out her contact
lenses or give her an eye massage. This is cutting-edge stuff, guys.
My friend Chad, a successful real estate man and L.A. pickup artist,
says that the eyes are the key to a woman's heart. "There are
evolutionary reasons for it," he explains, "and it turns them on like
nothing else in this world."

3. Wear Crocs. I honestly don't know why this works so well, but
nothing attracts attention like my bright orange pair of Crocs. The
affordable rubber shoes have an immediate aphrodisiac effect on women
and also act as a perfect conversation starter. "What the fuck are
those?" Kelly, an Upper East Side bartender, recently asked me. I
growled in her face and threw a drink at her. As you can imagine, the
night went well... (gentlemen don't kiss and tell.)

4. Brag about your "contacts" in the "industry". It doesn't really
matter what industry you're in -- banking, software, dry cleaning.
Just keep calling it "the industry" and laugh nonchalantly whenever
she asks you a serious question related to your career. If she really
presses you for details, tell her you buy good companies, make them
GREAT companies, and then sell to the highest bidder.

5. Hair gel. The only thing a woman loves more than the smell of Axe
Phoenix Bodyspray, and having a cold drink thrown in her face, is a
well-groomed man who knows how to use hair gel properly. Ideally, your
hair style should resemble a tidal wave's crest, threatening to crash
onto the shore of your sweaty douchebag forehead.
