About the Author
I'm Bobby Rio, one of the founders of TSB. I tend to write about what is on my mind so you'll find a mix of self development, social dynamics and dating articles/experiences. I am fascinated with improving our general well-being. It can be done. It must be done. Find me on Facebook, lets talk more.
As you might have noticed over the past couple weeks, we have begun a new weekly series in our members only section here at TSB Magazine titled “Advanced Pickup Techniques.â€
We are not claiming that the techniques discussed in this series will be groundbreaking, but they will be more evolved then the normal dating advice we dish out here at TSB. Although our ultimate aim is to help guys transform themselves into well rounded individuals in all aspects of life… we do have a soft spot in our hearts for Pickup Artist. This series is our nod to them, and what they’ve contributed to the dating world.

This is why I like working the room and getting to know a bunch of people first.
If you already know a bunch of people… your “value” is already established… and you can go in with something lame like:
“Hey, we haven’t met yet… my name’s Brad…”
Which seems to work like… um… all the time… lol.

This brings up a good point that sometimes we may ignore. We are so worried about our own social value that we sometimes lose track of our awareness of other people’s social value.
Like Brad said, working a room is the best way to boost your social value. “Flash game” is another way to boost value. At that point, you have your value established and can focus on the social value of others and can calibrate accordingly.
There’s a system to everything but in the end, you should acquire a good sense of these things naturally.
