How do you improve your close rate in daygame?

I think contact info per approach is somewhere below/around 6%.

That isn't a valuable metric. Contact info is useless without a date attached to it. Approach to date ratio is the more meaningful metric. Since the process goes approach-date-sex, approach-sex ratio gets influenced by what happens on dates. Approaches turning into dates has a direct relationship.

Select the right targets. If you chose correctly, the close rate is practically 100%. If you selected incorrectly, then you will have a difficult time even if you felt you were firing on all cylinders at the moment. A lot of times our worry is if we do and say the right things - the bad news is that doesn't matter sometimes.

Yes, and I agree. @oliver109 asked for that metric though, and I failed at more mobile thinking. Regarding the approach-date metric, it's pretty much non-existent.

Yeah. Personally I found @Jesse Pinkman's link to an article above in this thread very useful on how to improve day game.
