No matter whether you write down your reflections and thoughts on paper or screen, the action of putting words to your thoughts opens up a creative process that provides insight and clarity in a way that few other exercises can. It is exactly this insight that empowers many successful entrepreneurs to rise to the top. 

009 - Why Successful Entrepreneurs Journal

Marketing. It’s the art of influencing, persuading and gently nudging people towards your product or services. I’ve had a chat with the Grand master of influence and persuasion - Dr. Robert Cialdini

Questions:

Tell us about what you do, how did Pre-Suasion came about? What took you so long to write this prequel to Influence?

What are privileged moments and how can marketers take full advantage of these?

What types of marketing efforts and consumer product review are most successful? (Why should on-line photographs of fluffy clouds help sell furniture?)

Should you try to prime people in your USP right at the top of your website? If so, is there a process to follow? In other words, if priming is so important, should it be the first thing they read when they hit your website?

Why our perception of what is important can so easily be shifted, and how the US government used this to their advantage during the Iraq War

Which triggers are most effective, from the verbal (there is a linguistic, not just musical, reason why ‘Like a Rolling Stone’ has been voted the greatest pop song of all time by some) to the physical (the layout of an examination hall can influence candidates’ results)?

When looking for a job, what takeaways from Pre-Suasaion could you employ to incline your evaluators to be more favorable to your candidacy?

Once you’ve got that job, what might you do to increase the chances that your boss will support an idea/initiative you want to be associated with?

How attempts to persuade dishonestly backfire: why, for example, company employees encouraged to mislead customers often end up defrauding their own organisation?

What are the pitfalls to avoid in the psychology of influence? Can’t we just be ourselves?

Pre-Suasion: A Marketer's Way to Influence & Persuade, with Dr. Robert Cialdini

There are two things that can make or break you when it comes to achieving greatness: your body language and your confidence. 

If you don’t have confidence, you’ll never be able to put yourself out there to the world. You need the confidence to try, and it’s confidence that will help you get back up after your failures. 

Once you have the confidence to get out there, your next obstacle is your first impression. Your body language tells someone a lot about you. Sometimes, it may not be what you intended it to say.

Having proper posture, giving people a big smile, and treating everyone like an old friend will go a long way. 

These are really important lessons, which is why I wanted to bring you a mashup from Chen Lizra, Jordan Harbinger and Vanessa Van Edwards.


I’ve received such an overwhelming response on the past mashups I wanted to bring you another one. 

I really suggest you go back and listen to the episode multiple times. There’s so much great advice from all three of these guests, you can’t absorb it all in one sitting.

Take a new nugget of information each day and apply it to your life. 

You’ll quickly learn how not only your life can change, but these tips will also affect the people around you. 

So learn how you can master your body language and improve your confidence, on Episode 662.

Michael Michalowicz - The Mindset Of A Multiple 7 Figure Entrepreneur

Marc Accetta-Colors (clues to reading people)

By age 22, Janet had graduated with a BA in Communications, majoring in Psychology, become a punk rock model, Dolly covergirl, movie actress, soapie star, restaurant owner, radio DJ and Australia’s youngest ever copywriter to win a Lion at Cannes.  

As co-founder of Oddfellows Ad agency, she went onto become the most controversial woman in advertising until, seeking a seachange, she and her family moved to north Queensland where they created a multi-million dollar waterfront property development.

At 48, she had it all, except the one thing she’d spent her entire life chasing: the deep contentment that comes from knowing your true calling.

It was a near death experience that provided the breakthrough she was looking for.  Instead of seeing the proverbial light or hearing a choir of angels, the voice that came to her simply stated:  

“Janet, you’ve let everyone down.”

In that second she knew precisely what  it meant. What she thought was selfless sacrifice in looking after her family and chain of businesses was in fact selfishness. She had denied herself and the world her great gift as a teacher.

Janet would spend the next 9 years immersing herself in Personal Development, gaining certification in NLP, Blair Singer’s Train the Trainer, Making the Stage, Master Facilitator, Ultimate Personal Development Program and Accelerated Learning and Master of Self Expression with Larry Gilman.

A lifetime of studying human nature and her rollercoaster of successes and failures became the basis for her breakthrough workshops.

As Janet says, “I’ve spent 40 years figuring out my place on the planet and if I can empower others to do the same and save them a decade or two in the process, I’ve done my job.”
