Your Ad Titles Make Great Pick-Up Lines

Ever had trouble explaining your job to friends and acquaintances?

It’s easy for spammers, because everyone can relate to getting screwed over by them, whether it’s a casual email user or a professional blogger. But if you are using affiliate programs and doing PPC marketing, things can be a little more complicated.

So you have to put PPC affiliate marketing into terms that the general population can understand. Just like this

  • Your keywords get you to the bar. They let you mingle, and circulate around the room. They allow you to see and be seen, where the people are.
  • Your ads are your pickup line. It’s your introduction. Your chance to make a first impression, and to create an action.
  • Your landing page seals the deal. It gets the number. It takes the person home. Whatever you consider a successful pick up.

That’s a great strategy, although with most things in business, you need to adapt it to your needs, put in some hard work, and think outside the box. (Or at least have a Web 2.0 style logo.)

[Warning: Only 18+ readers should be reading anything about bars and girls.]

So here is my plan:

  1. Do keyword research for stuff that girls like.
  2. Browse Google for these keywords, keeping a close eye on the headlines used in the PPC ads.
  3. Go to the bar, and repeat some of these “call to action” phrases whenever I see a cute girl.
  4. When they get intrigued, win them over with some benefits from the landing page.

My first attempt went like this:

  1. Searched for what girls like, and I found HowToDoGirls, and one story was about sex and the company picnic.
  2. Googled for “company picnic” and found an ad for Philip & Henry magic show productions.
  3. Tried to pick up some girls with “Want my illusion to jazz up your party?”
  4. Got slapped because my drunken, slurred words came out as “Want to lose jizz when farty?”

I think that was a little too forward…

It’s OK though, because picking up girls at the bar is all about testing. Next time I’ll just try “Want 30 minutes of high-energy entertainment with me?” or “My tricks in bed make everyone laugh!” :D

    Wow! An audible laugh when reading a blog! I commonly smile quietly to myself, but this was good!

    Funny every time I am at a bar and I tell people that I work for a company called called big man’s land, noone thinks common sense (plus size clothing store) but rather oh an adult store or a buffet restaurant/sports bar.). Perception at a bar always changes. Thanks for making me laugh on a Sunday night.

    Can’t really relate to this post–happily married, but it sure was entertaining!
