Yes...simplify, simplify, simplify! Dating gurus/coaches have a tendency to over-complicate the dating process and human relationships in general. They add fluff to basic friendship principles because they want to sell books or magazines. I promise you that everything you need to know about starting and keeping a relationship you learned in elementary school. Anytime you hear someone talk about "a system" the alarms should go off. Just to put this in perspective....think about all the weight loss systems, including diets, that are advertised. All most people need to realize is eat less and burn more calories. For dating, I suggest:
1. Be friendly to women and give her lots of smiles and eye contact.
2. Watch to see if she likes you. Women tend to get near men to guage their interest.
3. If she diggs you, ask her out.
4. Treat each other well.
5. If not, get over it by finding someone else.
I disagree. I think in most if not all situations, being oneself works if you best forward one's best foot forward.
How do you know that one's best foot isn't filthy, stinky and raw from a life lacking in proper care and pedicuring? And what do you know about "most if not all situations"?

Because even people with bad personalities (even though bad personality is probably a relative term) can attract people. A rude person may attract people with his/her looks, or charisma/charm, intellect, etc.
It's sappy to say, but there is somebody for everybody. I think the key to dating is simply to be oneself.

I have found a few of the "Gurus" to be pretty dead-on a few subjects.
Perhaps. But more often than not, they simply put a one size fits all model, which can never really work.

This is true, there is someone for everyone. With this in mind, there should be no need for a dating "guru" if you don't care what kind of person you're with. Anyone can get laid.
Based on what I've seen, dating gurus charge people thousands of dollars to tell them what they want to hear. Said people then describe hearing what they wanted to hear as "eye-opening". In other words, it's simultaneously hilarious and sad.
