Aw, c’mon Donovan. You know that “Vince The Shamwow Guy” is REALLY my role model.
After all, I’ve got a cabinet full of cleaners. And you should see the shelves in the garage.
Well, whatever the case, gentlemen, enjoy it while you can. We’re going HD with remote wireless mic within a couple weeks so there will be no more “infomercials”. But there’s no changing the fact that I talk with my hands…that’s what being born in “Ballimer” does to a guy.
The only valid concepts introduced are that many men would not approach girls they find very attractive because they rationalize they must be invovled with someone already and trying to attract a girl by talking about your material possessions is a no no. As for asking her what will work on her, it has already been long established girls are not the best people to take advice from in that area.
In addition, the whole video has an infomercial feel to it, mostly because of Scot McKay. He comes off as inauthentic during the interview, as though portions were rehersed, whether they were or weren’t.
And while the txt message example may be an example of what not to do when txting a girl, there is absolutely nothing wrong with texting a girl to arrange a day 2 or using a txt or two before actually calling, it just depends on her disposition towards txt messages, timing, and what you actually are conveying in those txt messages.

Wow this is too sad. I love watching Billy work his magic on the screen. Guess Pitchmen is canceled now?
