I just did a complete analysis of the program called “The Heist” which aired on British Television. It is one of the most dangerous displays of the power of persuasion, hypnosis, language patterns and NLP you’ll ever see. I strongly recommend watching the video and then reading my analysis by clicking here

I just read a book that is so good and so complete I’m going to recommend it to you . . .
and it is from one of my biggest competitors.

Kevin Hogan has just released what I believe to be the best book on the market on the topic of Covert Persuasion. You’ll find it here.

This book is a step by step guide. In addition to endorsing it I’m going one step further and giving everyone who buys it today access to a live teleseminar on the topic of subliminal (or covert) persuasion.

Just pick up a copy of the book and email a copy of your receipt to amazonpromo@kevinhogan.com and you’ll receive information on how you can take part in a very rare live persuasion teleseminar with me. There are also a lot of other bonuses available that I’d never heard of before.

Grab this book today, you’ll be very glad that you did.

Whether you are a fan of covert persuasion or not,you’ll want to know what Kevin
is teaching to use it or to protect yourself from it.

Offering people too many choices actually reduces their likelihood of making a decision.

Studies show that when given a single choice about 2/3 of people will make a decision.

Facial expressions can be good predictors of what the person you are persuading is thinking, but it requires fairly significant study. Body language and facial expressions when combined offer an even better picture of how your message is being received. Many people believe that they are good interpreters of body language and facial expressions, but are they really?

I’ve been studying body language nearly as long as I’ve been studying persuasion and I consider myself an expert in the interpretation. In a second, I’m going to show you where you can test your ability to interpret facial expressions online. I tested myself and got 9 out of 10 right, how well will you do?

Because of the amazing demand to be on this call, I’ve added more phone lines. So if you wanted to hear me interview Robert Greene, but were not able to sign up because of the lack of lines, please go to right now and sign up.

I look forward to having you on the call, I just talked to Robert and he has some amazing stuff prepared for you.

I just finished Robert Greene’s The 33 Strategies Of War. And, I read his other books too, “The 48 Laws of Power” and “The Art of Seduction“.

There may be 33 strategies, but I lost count of how many new ideas I got from this book.

Now, before you think I’m just trying to get you to buy the book, let me tell you, I’m not. That is totally up
to you.

I was able to persuade the author Robert Greene to do a CONTENT ONLY teleseminar next Wednesday, February 8th. This is actually quite a feat as you’ll see. And, there will be no selling, no bonuses, no limited times.

That is a question I get often when I’m teaching seminars.

The answer is no . . . and yes . . . and it depends.

I want you to watch the video below, but first -

You’ve probably seen stage hypnosis shows where the hypnotist picks out people who are most susceptible to suggestion and gets them to do all kinds of crazy things. They do those things because at some level they are not opposed to doing them.

Decisions about the aesthetics of a website are made that determine the viewers experience in 1/20th of a second, less time than it takes to blink you eye. The study that was conducted was just reported in the Behavior and Information Technology Journal. It has fairly wide ranging persuasion implications for your
website and yourself. Read the whole story here.

If you’ve been reading my blog or these newsletters for long and especially if you’ve read my book Persuasion: The Art Of Getting What You Want you know that I’ve talked about how important a persuasive persona
is because of the speed at which we read each other. People may well see you long before they hear you and even if they see you and hear you nearly simultaneously, they make many decisions about you instantly (are you safe, trustworthy, friendly, appropriate etc.). You’ve also heard me say that a brand, a building, an office, a desk, your car etc., all have a persona as well.

Every year at Christmas time I get literally hundreds of preprinted Christmas cards with generic greetings inside from all the companies that I do business with. About every 10th card is the same as the card from another company so I never know for sure which one is from who. Companies send the card to “build our relationship” and in a misguided attempt to initiate the idea of giving to receive. They give me a Christmas card, I feel good about them, I do more business.
