How to Use Covert Persuasion To Help Others And Improve Your Sales
 |
If you’ve ever wondered about whether or not it is ethical to persuade somebody using covert methods, then this article is for you. I’d like to dispel some of the myths about convert persuasion. When used correctly, covert persuasion can be the best way to respectfully suggest a course of action to a client, loved on, or potential date.
In actuality, most people don’t like to make decisions. Most of us naturally defer to those in power, and are happy to go along with a competent leader, so long as they know what they are doing. Simply put, most of us are followers, and very few of us are actual leaders. If you have any doubts, next time you are sitting in a meeting at work, watch how many people will voluntarily suggest a course of action.
Despite readily giving in to the decision of a strong leader, most people still would like to feel that their opinion counts for something. This is where covert persuasion is particularly powerful. With the right handling people will be more than happy to go along with your ideas and suggestions.
Being able to involve the customer in the decision making process is a powerful method of ensuring their long term loyalty.
A great benefit of involving the customer in the sales process is that you will greatly reduce any instances of “buyer’s remorse.” If you’ve ever gotten home and found yourself with a product that you don’t want or need, you know exactly what I’m talking about. You can avoid this altogether with the right techniques.
When you use persuasion and involve the customer, they will not only be glad they bought from you, or decided to go along with your way of thinking, but they’ll also tell all their friends about you. This can be great if you work in a referral system.
Because you are reading this, you can really begin to understand the persuasive power this can give you. You may even begin to imagine all the different ways you can use these ideas in your life to help others, and make lots of money. You are only limited by your creativity and resourcefulness.
