Social Proof Secrets

[COD]

Simply stated; social proof is displaying you are in demand, a prize to win over, you are popular, cool, fun person, have likeable qualities. This status can give you an edge from the moment they glance in your direction. It’s all about perception, how others view you. You want to strive to exude success when interacting with others. When you project social proof it’s like having a backstage pass to all the major events. Lets take a look at some ways of projecting social proof.

1. AVATAR-you heard clothes make the man, well it’s true. How you dress and the accessories you incorporate all influence how you feel about yourself and how others see you. Put on some sun glasses, smoke a cigarette and you get instant transformation. The goal her is to make others say “Ya he’s cool”.

2. BODY LANGUAGE-how you stand, the way you walk, the look on your face, even how you hold your drink all speak volumes and convey a sub-text no amount of words could portray.

3. WINGMAN-having a cool wingman on your side especially if she is a female gives you added value.

4. PROPS-having gadgets, gizmos, a nice car, gold jewelry, expensive watch, big house, huge band account all exude sex appeal.

5. POLISHING-a golden tan, white teeth, impeccable hygiene, manicured nails, good physique all scream confidence.

6. HARD COPY PROOF-this works wonders online in addition to infield. Pictures of you at famous places, with famous people, pics of you with other women, pets, babies, pics of you in a magazine, video of you with other women or at a party, * testimonials from women on social net-working sites or dating sites, endorsements from wingman, friends, ex partners, etc

7. STATUS-if you know the owner, doorman, DJ, head bar tender, band member, police chief, author, anyone in authority, you are instantly cool by association. When you are in the spotlight people gravitate towards you.

8. AWARDS-if you have an important title, won any awards, contest winner, letters of recognition, trophies, prizes, been on t.v. or movie, play, written a book, published an article/poem, high I.Q., etc

9. FEMALE FRIENDS-being comfortable around cute women and having them as friends makes you appear confident, natural, sociable, and less creepy than standing alone.

 you can make it appear you have social proof by designing a testimonial from a “HOT CHIC” along with a random picture of said hot chic and posting it on your profile. List your occupation as someone cool, admirable, authoritative. Examples: DJ, author, CEO, fireman, police officer, teacher, Doctor, Lawyer, model, actor, athlete, etc. It’s not compensating for any shortcomings, its more accentuating your positives to the max.

Good post COD. It seems you are always posting helpful threads and for that I applaude you. Social proof has always been a strength of mine. When I'm out, I'm making friends with EVERYONE. It's not unusual to know half the bar by the end of the night. Women NOTICE. In fact, just a few weeks ago I was at my local bar on what I call a "magical" night. TONS of people I knew were there and I basically chilled in the corner while girl after girl came up hugging me, and dudes were high fiving me all night.

Out of nowhere this HOT little mama comes up to me and says "WHO ARE YOU? Everyone here seems to know you or wants to know you!" I could literally hear this chick getting wet. Good times.

Some suggestions I don't agree with.
1. Id never get my frikkin nails done just to bang chicks.
Not saying that if you enjoy getting your nails done its bad but that's
Going out of your way.

2. Smoke to look cool? Lol.

Isn't the point of being a alpha male being unappologeticly you?
And one more thing.. if you wear clothes that are "in" and there uncomftorable
Its bound to make your body language weird..one time I wore shoes that were a half size
Too small to a club cuz they looked great.. I had a terrible time.

Bah screw social proof. I don't really have many friends and I bang like.. 1 chick a month or something maybe not great results but not bad to me.

Edit:

After reading this again, I gotta agree with Ready

Social proof, also known as informational social influence, is a psychological phenomenon that occurs in ambiguous social situations when people are unable to determine the appropriate mode of behavior. Making the assumption that surrounding people possess more knowledge about the situation, they will deem the behavior of others as appropriate or better informed. Since observation of others usually provides only inconclusive information about what behavior is most profitable, the term 'informational social influence' is superior. Social influence in general can lead to conformity of large groups of individuals in either correct or mistaken choices, a phenomenon sometimes referred to as herd behavior. Although informational social influence at least in part reflects a rational motive to take into account the information of others, formal analysis shows that it can cause people to converge too quickly upon a single choice, so that decisions of even large groups of individuals may reflect very little information (see information cascades).

Body language is not social proof
Your "avatar" is not social proof
Awards is most defitnely not social Proof either.

Want examples of social proof?

i disagree SOCIAL meaning being positivly interactice with others and proof.....some sort of evidence displaying you are popular, cool, in demand.

Awards........hanging on the wall, credentials, military stripes, back stage pass badges,etc all INCREASE YOUR POULARITY AND GET YOU NOTICED.

I DISLIKE PSYCHO BABBLE it always has a way of taking all the fun out an an idea and way too fricken complicated for the average guy to incorporate.

The fact remains on social net working sites having testimonials enhances your profile. Who cares if it's fake..........its fricken bait and women eat this stuff up, when you buy something on E-Bay........testimonials are a must have. I for one want to know what other people are saying about a product, service, movie and or person. Too many alpha males grunt and strut around like they own the club.........dude I hear chics all the time say Look at that tool, way to controlling. Yes it would be great if every loser on the planet got a REAL ENDORSEMENT FROM A HOT CHIC..............well DUH.........IN REALITY IT JUST DOES NOT APPLY. Its just a tactic to get more response.......YOU ARE DISSECTING MY ARTICLE when all I figured out was IF U DO THIS U GET MORE POSITIVE RESPONSES.

IF a singer was on the corner strumming his guitar and I said he would get more money by opening his guitar case and throwing in a few bucks to make it appear people were tipping him, (whic is a fact) you would conject that he would be better off being a focusing on his talent to rely on tips than tactics..............YA WELL DUH............BUT AGAIN...........not everyone is that talented............THUS............my advice (trivial and unassuming as it may be)...........DOES GIVE ONE AN EDGE.

Ever see Kid rock, flava flav, insert rap maga star..........dude they aint all that good looking..........throw a few hot chics on their arms clinging to them, make a poster and plaster that image on MTV............boom they now project an image that screams sexappeal and a lot of women respond.

So if anyone wants to throw on a few hot women testimonials to influence their success rate I SAY ROCK ON.

I'll boil it all down for you guys. Get in shape, get your grooming on lockdown, and build a lifestyle.

Mark my words, "Lifestyle" is the buzzword for 2009 in the pickup community. It encompasses social proof, your hobbies, your female friends/preselection, the whole 9 yards.
