I'm going to asume you're somewhere between your teen years and your mid 30s.
Why such a broad age range? Well, that's the range in which not only did I have a hard time getting wowen's attention, but also a hard time coping with the mental pain that came with such lack of attention.
Yes. I spent a good amount of money, time, and energy into those seduction methods (books, audio, and videos) the desperate lonely man can find on the internet.
No. They didn't deliver the results they claimed to deliver... not even a quarter of them!
That being said, you can pick a few ideas here and there from internet sources that should be free of charge (books, audio, and video) and come up with a "system" that suits only your specific needs when approaching any woman in considerable amounts of unconvensional situations (shops, museums, trips, transportation, etc).
Forget about the idea of getting 500 girls in your bed. You should focus on creating conversational routines that make the terrifying task of approaching women a comfortable one. Again, do this not to get the phone number of that pretty girl you see weekly at the grocery store, but to kill that unnecessary mystique that makes men believe that every woman in your daily routine is unapproachable. In other words, the process of starting a conversation with new women should be as idle (and almost fun) as talking to that male employee you approach for direction at the hardware store.
Soon or later, like it or not, the moment to take things to the next level (conversation to phone number, phone number to date, date to relationship, etc) might rise and, as a man, it's your duty to take the first step and risk undergoing the consequences of such first step. Since approaching any challenge with the right attitude, at the right moment, but without the right tools is useless; I would personally recommend reading and adapting to you needs a short book on business negotiation and another short one on NLP or any other type of persuasion techniques. Again, the process of proposing anything to a woman should be like asking one of your male friends to lend you a small amount of money for the third time: You don't feel horrible for getting "no" for an answer, yet you feel great for persuading someone into trusting you (again).
How long will it take to get any results? If you make the same mistake I made, it'll take forever. However, don't expect it to work in a matter months. You should start small and apply two or three of your newly found/created techniques in any woman who crosses your way on a situation that leads to nothing (asking for directions, asking for an opinion on food or clothes, etc). Once you feel too comfortable doing the same thing, take more risks, rinse and repeat.
Don't chase women, chase that state of mind that makes approching women as fun as a video game: live, die, repeat... yes, I stole that from "Edge of Tomorrow".
A plumber can have all the attitude, knowledge, and expertise to fix a broken pipe; but if he's got the wrong tools or no tools at all, the next best choice is to go get the right tools for the matter. Find what works only for you!
Finally, I fear the possibility this long and BIASED post may do more harm than good, so I suggest you to read this page:

Sorry if this was too long. I wrote this out of passion and zero reason.
