In This BRAND NEW Home Study Course”
Best Part: you can use this system in everyday social contexts… and important business meetings… and with friends and family and never need to use a single ‘covert language pattern’ or ethically questionable technique to persuade…
And yet: through seemingly ‘ordinary’ conversations they will happily take action, and act on your ideas as if they were their own!
Dear Reader,
This letter is about you.
It’s about how you can have an easier, more successful and more rewarding life.
A life where opportunities are offered to you, doors are opened and more people say yes to your ideas.
A life where you have the power to influence everyone you meet.
You see the most successful people in life are not the most intelligent, wealthy or beautiful. The most successful people are those who can influence and persuade others to take action.
- Do you struggle to get friends, family or clients to listen and go along with your suggestions?
- Do you have a difficult boss, colleague or clients who resist your ideas?
- Have you ever missed a career or income enhancing opportunity because you failed to persuade?
- Would you like to be admired, command more respect and authority without being pushy?
- Would you like to rise to the top of your profession?
If so, you are in the right place.
As you are about to discover your ability to ethically influence and persuade others is the greatest SHORTCUT to having the life of your dreams.
Let me explain…
Traditional Approaches To Persuasion
Traditional approaches to persuasion are typically taught as something a person does to someone else that involves a mixture of reasoning, argument and in more recent decades… ‘covert’ language patterns…
… all designed to get the listener to agree with you.
To say “yes”.
These are all examples of ‘Outside – In Persuasion.’
The persuader starts from their point of view and tries to push their ideas into the listener’s mind via a variety of tactics and often so called “covert language patterns.”
And if they meet resistance, they are taught to overcome resistance by arousing emotion, stacking tactics and using sneaky language patterns and tricks to hit all of a person’s hot buttons to persuade.
Do these work? Yes sometimes, but…
Problem #1: It works mostly for the short term
If a person is skilled at using language patterns, anchoring and triggering states, stacking a person’s hot- buttons etc., it is possible to “persuade” a wide variety of people to say “yes” in the short-term, to something that may not be in their best interest.
A student of this approach to persuasion may get ‘a win’ and even boast about dominating the other person.
Especially if the other person isn’t schooled in how to defend themselves from this type of “persuasion.”
However… when you step back and think about it, it’s not really persuasion…
Problem #2: It’s closer to coercion than actual persuasion
Entire book shelves can be filled with the tools and tactics used by operators of “anything goes” persuasion.
Besides many practices being of questionable ethics, it’s got another big shortcoming…
Problem #3: It only works in under a specific set of situations.
Typically one-off persuasion, negotiation or influencing scenarios.
Contexts where you don’t have to see (or do business with) that person again.
Situation where you can get by with using certain questionable and sneaky persuasion tactics.
YET…
… if you are a manager, coach, consultant, sales professional or people helper etc., indeed in almost any profession; whatever you do to influence, persuade and secure more Yeses needs to work in the long term and be useable in any environment if you want to be successful and effective beyond one persuasion engagement.
(This is true also in your personal life at home, as it is in work.)
If you use short-term persuasion tactics that leave the other person feeling boxed in, cornered, duped or manipulated etc. then you will develop a reputation for being untrustworthy and someone to interact with caution.
And the next time you need to influence that person, you will experience massive resistance.
Which means you will need to “persuade” twice as hard!
This is secret downside rarely talked about in the outside-in tactics focused approach to covert persuasion.
Many teachers of this style teach persuasion as a toolset designed to dominate others, to “never lose an argument” and “always win.”
Even they don’t achieve that.
That doesn’t stop them pitching language pattern after language pattern and short term tactics, with little consideration for how this form of “persuasion” impacts any ongoing relationships you have with those persons, in contexts like business, sales or your personal life.
It’s a “I win, they lose” approach that doesn’t work when you have to interact with that person again.
Thankfully there is a NEW approach to persuasion that is ethical, elegant and works both in the short and long term. It’s the purest form of persuasion that flips the switch on old outdated approach.
You can even use this framework to build on any prior training on persuasion you may have had.
It’s starts from an inside-out relationship focused approach.
We call it ‘Purest Persuasion’ and it begins and ends inside the person who you are relating with and seeking to influence.
An approach that guides the listener to discover what has the feeling of truth with it.
Truth they find compelling.
Truth they are willing to act on.
The kind of persuasion that makes TOTAL SENSE to them!
It removes problems. Creates possibilities.
FEELS real.
Makes answering “yes!” easy.
We’ve all enjoyed being persuaded like that from time to time.
BUT…
… no products or programs on persuasion teach you how to persuade this way, systematically.
- Only know how to persuade using short-term ‘one-hit’ outside-in persuasion
- Don’t know how to track the beliefs, values and game-rules that underpin a person’s model of the world in real time (this is where the real opportunity to persuade effortlessly comes from)
- Don’t understand the “logic of persuasion”, how to design a persuasion process that adapts itself to the mind of the listener so resistance is never a problem
- Are still using an ethically questionable tactics that, day by day is becoming less and less effective
Perhaps you’ve noticed this for yourself?
Do you feel like:
Persuasion techniques you’ve been taught:
- cross a line about what you feel comfortable to do?
- wonder if they are really ethical?
- comes across in a pushy or untrustworthy sleazy way?
- require you to “overcome resistance” in others
- can require you to act in ways that aren’t authentically you?
- are becoming less and less effective
- are complicated to learn and apply
Or, if you have had no prior training in persuasion…
… perhaps you’ve stayed away from learning persuasion because:
- you think persuasions = manipulation
- fear you will get caught
- fear you will look foolish and fail
- believe you couldn’t learn to be persuasive
- hate the idea of having persuade even though you know it would benefit your career
- have struggled to persuade your bosses, colleagues and friends
- have a difficult time memorising all the language patterns
- feel a rush of dread at the idea of having to sell yourself or your ideas to others?
If so I want you to know it’s OK and it’s not your fault.
Up until now, no one had shown you a better way. A way that is more effective, ethical and doesn’t require you to memorise dozens and dozens of language patterns or act in inauthentic ways.
The best persuasion is persuasion that doesn’t feel like you are being persuaded at all.
Ideas arise in your mind and lead to action.
The entire process feels natural.
It is an inside-out approach to persuasion.
As an agent of influence of this elite form of persuasion, you don’t persuade so much as direct a listener’s attention purposefully, directing their mind to consider and evaluate ideas in novel and highly persuasive ways.
Ways that lead them to decide on a course of action – and then take action.
The action they take, feels like it was their thought alone.And because it does, it is far more likely to stick and be acted upon.I mean, who can resist their own thoughts?
Let me explain…
People carry with them everywhere, their beliefs and expectations.
The filters they use to listen to what you or anyone else has to say.
Unless you are persuading a very young child, everyone carries with them their past beliefs, expectations, judgments, values etc. at all times. And the feelings those judgments tell them about the future.
This mechanism of beliefs, values and judgments are the gatekeepers which determine if what you have to say will be heard or not. If it will generate action.
We can ignore them (like most people do and fail) or we can use them to our advantage.
To gain insight. To find a lever to create action.
To discover where we should target precisely for our persuasion to hit its target.
Unfortunately many “teachers” in NLP focus on using “covert language patterns” and “power” words to persuade others.
It’s the outside-in approach.
Persuasion tactics from the 1980’s and 1990’s.
The problem with trying to use sneaky language patterns and power words is they creates the wrong frame:
– the idea of persuasion as adversarial
– that some magic phrase holds the power
– that people won’t notice being manipulated (and remember that next time they interact with you.)
For decades book after book has focused on teaching more language patterns and tactics but overlook the logic of persuasion.
The patterns and principles behind the persuasive process.
Ethical Persuasion
When you understand:
- Persuasion happens in the listener’s mind
- That each person carries their past beliefs, generalisations, expectations and experiences with them
- That the most convincing thing that will lead to yes (and action)… are their own thoughts…
… You begin to realise that the real power is NOT in specific language patterns or applying pushy outside-in persuasion techniques but accessing that person’s own inbuilt persuasive mechanism, their own formula that leads them to say Yes.
(And be happy that they did long after you’ve left…)
