dating coach and blogger
Dave Perrotta is a dating coach who writes, coaches and makes videos for men about dating, confidence and lifestyle. He has said he was not a natural at socializing or talking to women and that he learned through years of deliberate practice. He also appeared in videos for the pickup coaching company Simple Pickup.
In 2012 he started a blog called PostGradCasanova, aimed at men in their twenties who had left college and wanted a better social life. He later added a YouTube channel and a coaching business, and he now presents his work as advice for busy men who want to meet a long-term partner.
He self-published Conversation Casanova in 2016. The short book says men fail with women less from a lack of lines than from anxiety and dull small talk, and it gives frameworks for starting conversations, moving past small talk and flirting. He followed it with other short books in a dating and lifestyle series.
