I've seen all their videos and I'm skeptical about whether these guys actually get laid.
I've spent time on their forums and their notoriously cagey about their follow-ups. Anyone whose done day game in the US with local young American girls knows 75%+ numbers flake. We know they can get numbers (not hard these days). Are they getting dates and lays? They've been asked several times on the forum about what % result their day game numbers result in dates and lays, and these guys never answer.
They're clever internet marketers and no doubt they're "number-closing" abilities will impress clueless teenage virgins. Whether they're actually having sex with any of the girls via flash day game pickup remains to be proven.

They've raised their prices from $5/month to $40/month now.
700% increase in 2 years - not bad.

I just checked out a few of their videos and I must say, these guys are really smart with marketing. I also like how their team consists of an Asian and an Indian guy. It's like they know what type of betas want their product.

No offense to them but the Chinese looking guy looks mostly gay and I'd be surprised how often the Indian guy gets laid. They are pickup artists for the 15-17 year old boys community who don't have a clue about pickup. Yes they are targeting clueless virgins.
They are only big because Youtube attracts a large audience of young stupid people, which is also the reason all those fake video prank channels are so successful on there.

I enjoyed their earlier stuff, but can't watch them anymore. They have good game though, and all are most likely getting laid with much better women than they would have done otherwise.

I think some of you are being a little harsh. They show sufficient game to attain the girls' numbers, but then we all know that's just a small cog in the clockwork that is 'game'. If you have trouble getting numbers, then the confident and direct style of approach that SimplePickup use can certainly help...After that, however, you're going to have to look elsewhere for guidance.

Didn't these guys come out as pro-feminist?
They're good at acting like clowns for a girl's amusement, but they don't seem to realize that they should be more than that - and they're setting themselves up for an FRA or a harassment suit, by pretending to themselves that feminists are their friends.[/align]

I'm not sure they deserve all the hate. And I don't care if they get laid. Point is they help insecure guys at least "initiate" a pick up which is a 100% improvement from zero approaches that they used to do. That's their audience, plain and simple.
Approaching is not easy. And they're doing it in a light hearted way rather than putting on some "alpha" front.
Sometimes, yes they're overly clownish but they don't take themselves seriously at any point; for newbs, lot to learn from that. And again, newbs are their audience. Don't expect to get huge ROI if you're past that.
I used to take myself too seriously and their methods have helped my pickup skills in this respect, especially in the beginning.
Nowadays, I know that if I read signs correctly and know how and when to escalate, I'm more likely to get a date. I'm not learning any of this with Simple Pickup.
As far as gayness, there are other PUAs that come off as uber gay (e.g. RSD Tyler in my opinion). But everyone somehow believes he gets laid and there are higher swaths of guys following them.
Let's face it, a huge amount of minorities have insecurities about picking up girls (especially Asians and Indians). It's a higher rate than majority white guys or even black guys I would think.
If Simple Pickup helps these guys get in the field and level it for them, I'm all for that. To expect anything more is probably unrealistic.
TLDR: I don't know how they escalate and how they take a girl home. Never seen it, don't care. I just know they can help newbs pick up chicks. And that's good enough for a majority of guys that have never cold approached before.
