?? Scene: A dimly lit WeWork.
?? Bro is rocking Patagonia vest.
?? He has a Lamborghini laptop sticker but no car.
?? He's about to reverse sell you into absolute oblivion.
Step 1: The Fake Disinterest Hook
?? Reverse Selling Bro (leaning back, exhaling dramatically): "Look, man, I’m not even sure if this is a fit for you..."
?? Sir.
?? I never asked for this call.
?? Why are you already breaking up with me?
?? You (bored, sipping coffee): "Alright, cool then."
?? Reverse Selling Bro (panicking internally, forcing a smirk): "No, no, wait. I mean… I just need to see if you’re ready for this level of growth."
?? Bro.
?? You cold DM’d me.
?? Now you’re acting like I need to qualify for your funnel.
Step 2: The ‘I Don't Care If You Buy’ Play
?? Reverse Selling Bro (casually stretching, trying to look alpha): "Honestly, I only work with people who are serious about leveling up."
?? Sir.
?? You just posted "Only 3 spots left! DM me!" on LinkedIn.
?? We both know that’s a lie.
?? You (checking time, thinking about lunch): "Yeah, I’m not really looking for anything right now."
?? Reverse Selling Bro (nodding, pretending to be unbothered, but visibly sweating): "That’s totally fine. Most people I talk to aren’t ready for this kind of transformation anyway."
?? Bro.
?? You are gaslighting me into feeling not worthy of your funnel.
?? This is violence.
Step 3: The ‘Wait, You’re Closing Yourself’ Trap
?? You (half-listening, scrolling Twitter): "So... what exactly do you do?"
?? Reverse Selling Bro (grinning like he just won The Apprentice): "Interesting you ask. What do YOU think you need right now?"
?? Sir.
?? You are making me pitch myself.
?? This is psychological warfare.
?? You (annoyed, shutting it down): "I think I need to go now."
?? Reverse Selling Bro (leaning in, doubling down on the frame control): "Exactly. That’s why my clients pay me to make sure they don’t keep wasting time."
?? Bro.
?? You just reverse Uno’d my escape plan.
?? This is sales inception.
Step 4: The Desperate Final Play
?? You (standing up, grabbing keys, visibly done): "Alright, man. Appreciate the chat."
?? Reverse Selling Bro (voice suddenly changing, full panic mode, rapid-fire pitch now engaged): "Before you go, let’s lock in a quick 15-minute strategy session. No pressure, but… spots are literally gone after this week."
?? Bro.
?? You just said you didn’t care.
?? Why are you begging now?
?? You (backing away, maintaining eye contact like he’s a wild animal): "Yeah, I’ll think about it."
?? Reverse Selling Bro (defeated, slowly packing up his laptop): "No worries, man. Just don’t come back in six months wishing you took action today."
?? Sir.
?? We both know you’ll DM me again next week.
?? Your "last 3 spots" are eternal.
Final Scene: The Ghosting Phase
?? Two days later.
?? Reverse Selling Bro sends “Just circling back†email.
?? One week later.
?? Reverse Selling Bro drops a "Saw this and thought of you" message.
?? One month later.
?? Reverse Selling Bro is now offering 50% off on his "limited" program.
?? You (deleting the email, shaking your head): "Bro… just sell normally."
?? Reverse Selling Bro.
?? Still convinced he’s the buyer in this situation.
?? Still absolutely delusional.
