Covert Persuasion Is A Great Tool To Help People
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.
The drawback to this fact, is that while many people like to go along with others way of doing things, most people like to feel as though they've at least had their say in the matter, one way or the other.
That is why covert persuasion is so powerful. When done correctly, the person being persuaded will fully agree with the decision being made, having been a full participant. Even if the decision wasn't theirs, they will feel as though their opinions were carefully considered when making the decision.
One obvious benefit to this wonderful truth about human nature is that you will reduce "buyers remorse" considerably. People will almost never second guess their decision to go along with you. If you've ever returned a product, you know how it feels to have been sold something you really didn't want.
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.
