[Ravengaurd6]

I want to own lip-stick now. And I'm a man!

[HavockdeLimaPeru]

god this man is awesome!

[tucsonia]

Guess what? I'm going to be the first to say, "Don could sell ice to an Eskimo".

[emmapeel66]

Simply Brillant. This is what modern TV should look like !

Draper is, as Brian Kinney (QAF) was, a man right out of Any Rands books !

[rexkramer846]

Draper is the man. I can't stand Betty Drape or Francis or whatever the hell her name is now. Petty, jealous nag.

[improvisedcinema1]

that guy is in LA noire and batman

[LorenzoSmokeMachine]

Don Draper could sell hydrogen to the Sun

[plasticvideo]

Don Draper could sell wings to an angel.

[tucsonia]

Don Draper could sell cases of "Mein Kampf" to the Jewish Defense League

[luckliberty]

selling ice to eskimos

[tehmiff]

This is how the conversation should've went:

"Sit down."

"Fuck you."

[frenzychris]

@tehmiff Nope. "Fuck you" means so much less than "no."

[tennnine]

@tehmiff: not went gone

[videomania100]

"women want color." lol!

if you love MM, ck out this band that has the mad men vibe and then some. they are totally cool.

search

cinnamon doll

[razarsenal180]

How the fuck did that even work?

[chrono128]

"Sit down"

"NO"

"Preety Please"

"lol ok"

[eljefeshema]

wtf is kabuki?



[thedrizzle16]

Jon Hamm as Lex Luthor in "Man of Steel"....think about it!

[tucsonia]

@thedrizzle16 And the thing is, he could convince the movie audience to pull for him instead of Superman!

[texasfratstar]

"Sit down"

"No."

[HaydenHungryMind]

How are you getting ads off an amc show?.....

[Ilovehiphopmuzik1]

Don Draper can sell Arrows to the Knee!

[originalarmo]

1:27

Cosgrove: ...Fuuuuck...



[jafoosy]

Don Draper could sell lipstick to...oh wait.

[saponumberone]

Don Draper can sell butt implants to kim kardashian!!

[mdr1013]

This is such a brilliant scene. The look on Cosgrove's face during Don's speech is priceless.

"Sit down."

"No."

[someoneatemysandwich]

no

[SagaciousSilence]

Holding a gun to the client's head would be less persuasive than Don's approach...

[nwjones1]

Don Draper could sell The Total Gym to Chuck Norris.

[Pulguita225]

@nwjones1 AWESOME jajajaja 

[moneytreehk]

Finally there is a man that understands women. How can a bunch of guys tyring to seel someone to women and know nothign about us? Funny. 

[marcosumendap]

That every woman want's to be the best..? 

[ile61]

Sit down...No!

[Zebonka]

1:27 Ken Cosgrove. Haha.

[TheJameswbrooks]

Love it when we can get our passion to the canvas!

..Don's The Man~

[Backmanmatt]

The irony of advertisements before watching a clip of MadMen

[gd1f]

@Backmanmatt that's not ironic, it's coincidental. It would be ironic if it was a public service announcement warning people to be wary of advertising

[Backmanmatt]

@gd1f I apologize for being so misinformed, and dense.

[Willtc321]

I can safely say that this is the best show I have ever watched and that Don Draper is simply pure genius.

[bettyfelon1]

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

[bettyfelon1]

This would be more brilliant and magical if we gave Peggy credit for coming up with the idea.

[FostersNation]

0:40 "I'm not telling you to listen to anyone, but this is a very fresh approach."

YOU'RE LYING, PHELPS.

[ThePurpleLady007]

Damn he's good.

[YouPickItWePlayIt]

I just realized the guy at 0:46 looks exactly like the detective you play as in L.A. Noire!

[hotsizzleakadafizz]

@YouPickItWePlayIt ...that's because that is him, he plays Cole Phelps in the game L.A. Noire!

[fra2603]

@YouPickItWePlayIt well yeah it's him

[TwelfthChapter]

Don Draper could sell me a used condom.

[rhoadsofoz]

LOL! look at Ken Cosgrove's face at 1:28. Fuckin priceless!

[50GallonDrum]

@rhoadsofoz Yeah, I love that.  He's not sure if Don's insane or a genius.

[ayansb]

He had me at "kabuki".

[serb619]

Cole Phelps!

[WOAHyourBoat]

I'm in Marketing and this actually is a horrible sales pitch. Try this with the russians of the japanese and you'll be thrown out in seconds.

[thepuppetmaster2501]

@WOAHyourBoat ...guess it's a good thing they were neither russian nor japanese? Plus, it's the TV version of the 60's - inaccuracy is bound to occur. And if some people considered this bit good enough to be singled out on YouTube, then it must work for some...

[WOAHyourBoat]

@thepuppetmaster2501

I thought it was obvious an American executive would not put up with such an arrogant and brash pitch this is why I did not mention it. Also I’m well aware they are neither Russian nor Japanese I'm simply illustrating the narrow inherent quality of persuasiveness this pitch elicits. Yes, some people think it was a good pitch but i doubt those people know anything about boardroom bargaining, push-pull rhetoric or even decent body language communication.

[AlvinHDavernport]

@WOAHyourBoat You're right, and after all you *are* entitled to an opinion, but you please drop the whole "I studied/am studying blah blah blah and this is not as good as you uneducated masses think it is... for God's sake, have you people ever heard of blah blah blah?" act. It's not original and you're not impressing anyone. Really, don't be THAT guy. It's so annoying it makes other people like me embarrassed of ever saying that we have a diploma and know shit other people don't.

[WOAHyourBoat]

@AlvinHDavernport

I was not trying to be original or impress anyone. I never said i studied or was studying (if this implies college if not disregard this sentence) anything. You got me on the uneducated massess part i did come off a little high and mighty but it is hard (for me at least) not to when you are responding to an opposing viewpoint. I apologize for indirectly embarassing you (If I did or even if the was just an example), I don't want to be THAT guy but for a comment I was Oops :(

[AlvinHDavernport]

@WOAHyourBoat OK, I may have overreacted here. Regardless of your coming off a little pedantic, you did make a valid point. On the other hand, there's no need to brag about your own academic preparation in order to make a point. I'm not going to say I've never done it myself, and really, nobody loves Buzz Killingtons.

Sorry again if I was too aggressive with you. You're obviously now the kind of person I assumed you were.

[WOAHyourBoat]

@AlvinHDavernport

"...there's no need to brag about your own academic preparation in order to make a point"

I couldn’t agree more. I did come off as THAT Guy I’ll admit it; I just didn’t realize it until you pointed it for me. You were not aggressive at all just very up-front and honest :) Thank you for the initial reply and the critiques, they made me more aware of how I type my responses on YouTube and how they may be interpreted.

[AlvinHDavernport]

@WOAHyourBoat No, thank *you* for making me aware that not every intelligent person on YouTube is an arrogant snob who can't take a piece of advice or an opinion contrary to theirs :)

And yes, going back to the original topic, I fully agree with you: this show is wonderful, but I'm not blown away by EVERY Don Draper sales pitch (and I'm not an expert on the topic). Some sound pretty good to me, but some others, I can definitely sympathize with the unconvinced client.

[AlvinHDavernport]

I don't understand the Jesus line.

[willy1986tralara]

[sunbeam11]

Ha ha if only it was that easy to change a client's mind! Try that in a meeting today and you'd be Done Draper and out the door.

[nskkk1]

@sunbeam11 if he was a normal employee than yeah, but Don is his own boss. in 90% of cases he would lose the client, not his job.

[rutger300]

I never knew Cole Phelps smoked

[o0xemas0o]

Sales is about understanding people and attacking their weaknesses. I recently published a poem for a contest regarding door-to-door scams - it is here if anyone is interested. If you wanna really help me out, voting could help pay my tuition for Uni.

If not, move along, no obligations!

thanks:

[amazingdany]

Greatest "No" in tv history.

Love the professional arrogance of this guy. My kinda sales guy...

He could sell a glass of water to a drowning man.

[LabGenius17]

Love the professional arrogance of this guy. My kinda sales guy...

He could sell a glass of water to a drowning man.

[Lawgirlt]

I guess he found Jesus.

[Teztost3rpwn]

Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead rape this boring asss show. AMC should cancel this shet

[teknicolorsushi]

@Teztost3rpwn Then why are you even here...

[millard27]

What episode is this?

[kharnvelzyghur]

approaches to shake hand while the dude is sitting down. REJECTED. facepalm.

Sit down

No... will you buy my handshake?

Not unless you sit the fuck down.

[Svetsarkirurgen]

Kevin's expression at 1:27 is priceless

[camisacook]

not bad..the boss man was a bit weak though

[thegateau]

amazing how lipstick ads these days do feature only 1 color. as a woman, i can personally speak as to how that's much more powerful than having an ad with a variety of different shades.

[Jossiab]

Kabuki (歌舞伎 kabuki?) is classical Japanese dance-drama. Kabuki theatre is known for the stylization of its drama and for the elaborate make-up worn by some of its performers.

[KraftwithaK]

I googled bukkake.

[w4r7]

@KraftwithaK He said "Kabuki" which is basically Japanese theatre. Bukkake on the other hand...well...Don and his crew isn't trying to sell that to him as well. That would definitely make them "Mad Men..or Gay Men..or whatever.." lol

[thes1KK]

i need to start watching this show...

[sumerez]

"why should we waste time on kebouke?"

"i don't know what that means"

no one does man

[SagaciousSilence]

"I'm not here to tell you about Jesus"

*Bows down to Don, our new God.

There isn't a woman in the world who wouldn't submit to Don.

[whoiscarlito]

Don Draper = Beast.

[NHLman27]

"People like to be told what to do, so much so that they'll listen to anyone."

-Don Draper 

[lord86maverick]

one word amazing

[k9platnum68]

what happens after that

omg

[NHLman27]

@k9platnum68 he says, "No, not until I know I'm not wasting my time." the client then says "sit down" again. then they get drunk in celebration.

[msparrillo]

Hes using what i like to call "professional arrogance". Advertising is hard sales and thats exactly what he is doing. Think of business like women, you have to make them think they need you more than you need them.

[wednesdayschild91]

....he is a god among men

[ZAC2994]

@wednesdayschild91 .. pretty sure hes just an actor buddy

[tehMick]

I came.

[MancerEvan]

If I tried to pull this shit at work, my creative director would slap me and the client might want to put us in review.

[drumbum4628]

@MancerEvan thats why your not Don Draper.

[MancerEvan]

@drumbum4628. There's no such thing as a Don Draper. Obviously we all know he's a fictional character. What I mean is, Clients also have big egos. One faulty move (even if you're right) they will put your agency into review and most likely move onto another agency. They don't want to hear that they're wrong. They want to hear what they want to hear in a creative format. There are over 50 creative shops in NYC, they have nothing to lose. You have an account and a job to lose.

[drumbum4628]

@MancerEvan there may be 50 creative shops in NYC but they chose you for a reason......because your good. but then again i don't work in that field and its not my expertise so ill take your word for it, and when i said your not Don Draper, i meant as in your not a fictional character in a soap opera; which is why you cant do that.
