Great Ideas Don't Persuade
Most people think a great idea, a great product coupled with a well reasoned logical presentation will produce the reaction they want. Nothing could be further from the truth!
The world’s most creative and important products, inventions, and solutions were nothing more than ideas until someone persuaded someone else to do something. Great persuaders bring ideas to life.

Want "YES?" Activate a Trigger!
A recent PBS series "The Secret Life of the Brain" offers startling insight
into the way the human brain makes decisions. "We are not thinking machines
- we are feeling machines that think." Those who embrace this knowledge, who learn to motivate the right internal triggers, have enormous power over others. They motivate change. They get approvals for new ideas, get funding for projects. They get cooperation. They get people to say, “YES!” To persuade effectively, we must learn to partner with our others, and their decision
making process, not against it as most do.
What is the psychology of decision-making, and how can I motivate people to
act? Request the whitepaper
Why We Fail To Persuade
Most people believe a good logical presentation with good data and the right
supporting facts is the best way to persuade others. They break the process
into 3 steps:
1. Present the proposition, clearly, with conviction.
2. Present
your supporting data, with the right facts and information.
3. Structure your
"deals" and move on to conclusions, closure.

produce results.
