Over the years, you, like me have had fun, exciting, joyful, and happy experiences that you can instantly remember when prompted to do so. For example, I distinctly remember my Mom giving me my first bicycle. It was royal blue! The handlebars had motorcycle style racing grips and it had an 8 inch wide ten speed type seat with shock-absorber-like coil springs underneath. As you might imagine, I spent many hours riding that bike, alone and with friends, for countless miles. What fun times I had! Can you remember your first bike?
Why do you remember? The short explanation is&#8230; you were in a heightened emotional state of excitement, joyfulness, or happiness back then. Additionally, you went on to have many pleasurable moments while riding your bike, didn&#8217;t you? Anyway, you might be asking, &#8220;What does this have to do with persuasion?&#8221; Good question!

To be a powerful and effective persuader you have to master the ability to move people emotionally. Every seemingly irresistible persuader I&#8217;ve read about, listened to, watched live, or interviewed, possessed the skill to successfully impact people emotionally. Some of the &#8220;Best of the Best&#8221; work in one industry that is responsible for generating billions of dollars a year. If you think I&#8217;m referring to the advertising industry, you&#8217;re correct!
Top advertising agencies&#8217; creative teams know how to capture attention, and stir emotion within 30 seconds. This is because they have insider information about human behavior, psychology, and persuasion. With that in mind, I invite you to watch the following commercial. Try not to laugh!

The more you learn about human behavior, psychology, and persuasion, the easier it will be for you to get people to do what you want. However, if you don&#8217;t remember to intensely focus on giving your audience what they want first, you&#8217;ll experience only limited success. Therefore, I challenge you to decide and commit to always look for ways to ensure the happiness and satisfaction of your customers, so that you enjoy immeasurable success.
With your success in mind,
Ron

In a time of economic uncertainty, people tend to tighten their purse strings, only purchasing what&#8217;s needed.  What&#8217;s great about that is most people in our society don&#8217;t buy what they need, they buy what they want.  Don&#8217;t believe me?  That&#8217;s fine.  May I ask you a question?

How many people do you know who drive expensive, luxurious SUVs such as the Cadillac Escalade ($50,000)?  I humbly submit to you that they didn&#8217;t &#8220;need&#8221; that expensive of an automobile, they wanted it.  They wanted the feelings of luxury, power, accomplishment, and uniqueness that come from driving such a wonderfully made vehicle.  However, I also submit to you that they give themselves the permission to feel that way after buying that automobile, when in actuality they could&#8217;ve decided to feel those emotions without the price tag.

What that means is, we have been conditioned by advertisers to believe that in order to feel a certain way, we have to buy their clients&#8217; clothes, cars, and jewelry.  Is there anything wrong with that?  You&#8217;ll have to answer that question.  I simply wanted to shed some light on the fact that you can feel anyway you want, when you want, and without drugs. lol

Am I suggesting that you stop buying what you want, and only buy what you need?  Absolutely not!  However, I am advising you to decide to feel good now, whether you have what you want or not.  It&#8217;s your choice.  Isn&#8217;t it?
With your success in mind,
Ron
