First rule of sales,including pool hustling

Being in sales for 20 years I've known for a long time, asking women out and making sales are very similar.

The longer you go without a sale the harder it gets.

Women and customers can smell desperation.

Have to be cool and not get that way. Gotta know that the sale is coming, it's a numbers thing.

Confidence sells more than anything else. Not to be confused w cockiness.

If you have a good product and you present it well, you have every right to ask for the sale.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

And remember a slim chance, is still a chance. The words "why not" are powerful.

The one sales line that never seems to fail (especially when pushing any luxury item): Just tell the customer..”You deserve this”.
Don’t know how it could apply to hustling though (?).
