... in response to Re: The secret is outdated information, posted by Jim L on Jun 13, 2002Well, I checked out this guys web page and I don’t know if he is for real or not. I used to hire a lady in Cartagena to do the exact same thing this guy is doing but she was really slick. Very women she approached left with a smile on her face even if she wasn’t interested in meeting a gringo. I called her the Bete Midler of Colombia. She was absolutely hilarious. but I never used her to try and pick up on women at malls only clubs.
I don’t know if this is a trend of things to come but my gut feeling is it could backfire on you and Americans in general. If it gets out that Americans are hiring guys to hassle the women at the malls it won’t be good for anybody.
For this to work the women must never find out you hired this guy just to try to pick up on women. If she does you are going to lose a lot of credibility. She is going to have to believe that this guy is really a friend of yours or that you are in Cali on business and he is your translator or something. Personally I doubt if this guy can pull it off and even if he does the american that hires him will probably let the cat out of the bag sooner or later.
I’m not against using this kind of tactic in a club. In fact I think maybe I will take this guy to a couple of clubs I know (if I get bored). If I do I’ll give you a report (from 1 to 10) on how effective he is and a score (from 1 to 10) on how intrusive or offense I feel he is to women that he approaches.
The things I do for you guys, Wayne
