It's all a sales funnel etc dummy just get with the gang

 And then I tell him, well them actually, all over the country over the fuckin' world as if I'm some sort of guru, knower of all the secrets of human kinds, and the discoverer of the distillation of the core knowledge over human interactions, boys boys boys, and yea it's not always boys there's  been girls too but they're into different sort of conversations, more rounded, and holistic, and conversations are more directed towards rebellion etcetera, anyway back to the original point, I tell 'em, boys boys boys listen it's not about how you get the contacts or how you set up the calendar meetings, it can be any source, it can originate in anyway, with our friends its been through mutuals but that's not a hard and fast rule, it can be online where lead generation is all optimized and works and scale, and if you're starting out that's where you should be...approaching things at scale, but once you're done with scale in certain sense, maybe go for a more invested interpersonal approach,  making connections through organizations and locations where people are gathered around with a common purpose and goal in mind, and often in such occasions libations are involved good for you good for them that everybody's on the same page it's supposed to be a good thing. And then some dumbass complains about how expensive these things are, and working things at scale is cheap etcetera and I tell him, bro what exactly is it that you're looking for, do you know what's cheap? Not fucking living, living under a forest in the jungle, eating wild fruits and vegetables, barely showering none of your fifa bullshit but you don't do that do you what are you gonna do with your untold millions that you've hidden like a goddamn millions man life is meant to be lived, so fuckin 'grow up and forgodssake g=live like a human being for a change, dude. Just remember, this is a sales funnel to begin with, and when things work out, they get there where you want to be, and maybe you don't want to look at it in such black white terms but for right now, use the same strategies, if you want to get anywhere, not in massive online scale, but on a human-to-human terms. Jeeebus.
