Well presented analogy and mostly true. But, there is one big difference. A well-run business can truthfully attract, seduce, close the deal, deliver value, and maintain relationships with many customers over time, and that makes them more than pickup artists.
Pickup artists are always scamming because nothing sustainable can be achieved when closing the deal is the end game, delivering nothing to the customer but a one-night stand. Sure, there are a lot of companies like that and they generally end up like pick artists, wasted and broke.

From the page: "Whether it's getting laid or getting paid… the rules of the game are the same!
The game of marketing a business and the game of seduction are nearly identical. That's why I suggest all business owners who are serious about growing their business study the art of picking up women as well as the art of business. I don't care if you're married or IF YOU ARE a woman, study seduction and you'll have a deeper understanding of what makes people tick."
Some good analogies with lots of humor thrown in to make it fun to read.

Once you understand how people tick, it'll be easy to sell to them...

Ultimately, even seduction comes down to some basic elements of human psychology. If you can sell a suboptimal product (often yourself) to someone who doesn't actually need it (or can do better), then selling a product should be a snap.
