Jesus did say to go and make disciples. He even showed us how to do it and caused a written record to be left for us.

I don’t see Jesus personally using mass alter calls or sinner’s prayers. In fact, while he did preach to the masses, it doesn’t appear that he requested them to convert and become disciples. He personally invited the 12 to come. Also, I don’t see him warning or condemning those in the vicinity of those he invited for their failure to respond. He had lots of conversations and dinners that didn’t result in invitations to discipleship, too.

And we wonder what we’re doing wrong.
