Hypnotic Selling: Get Their Unconscious Mind to Say Yes!

One of the most powerful ways to sell anything is to use the techniques of modern hypnosis.
In a clinical setting, a hypnotist gently guides the client into a trance. Once in that relaxed state, the unconscious mind more readily accepts suggestions to stop smoking, lose weight or feel more confident, etc.
Of course, while you’re trying to make a sale or close an important deal, nobody is going to let you put them into a trance.
Or will they?
They will if they don’t know that you are doing it.
Two of the most powerful ways to reach someone on an unconscious level are to use Distracted Sentencing and Embedded Commands.
In order for these techniques to work, you must first establish rapport with your prospect. Much has been written about rapport so we will just give you the highlights.
You create rapport by being like someone. You become more like them by doing the same things they do. If they are leaning to one side of their chair with their legs crossed, you sit that way too. If they speak quickly, you speak quickly. If they speak slowly, match their pace, and so on.
Rapport techniques work because on an unconscious level, they are thinking: “He’s just like me.”

How to Make Money from Information Products

What is an information product?
The simplest definition is an info-product is any product that teaches something, or provides information.

That could include a book, audiotape, class, seminar, computer program, or report. Before the internet, information products were expensive to develop and extraordinarily difficult to distribute. Publishers, agents, engineers, classrooms, advertising all had to be taken into consideration.

The internet streamlines the process of distribution. Books and courses can now be downloaded immediately, without the costs of middlemen, production, and mailing. The upside is greater access to information to everybody. But because virtually anyone can create a product, the quality of all this information is less controlled. Caveat emptor. Thankfully, our discussion today is not about ethics or quality.

The goal here is to get you thinking about what you could create.

Understanding the Different Methods of Online Promotion

Did you realize there are only three types of online promotion?... This statement may seem odd and even untrue in your mind, but I am speaking in more general terms than you might be thinking.

Let me explain.

The three types of promotion are Junk, Active and Passive promotions.


JUNK PROMOTIONS ARE MONEY PITS

Junk promotions are those that seem to produce results, but by their very nature are really only illusionary promotions.

For example, let me begin with FFA (Free For All) pages. You might find yourself subscribing to a submission program that tricks you into believing you are submitting your links to tens of thousands search engines.

According to the Open Directory website, they have only approved 1705 search engines and directories for inclusion in their database (http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Searching/).

I like using the DMOZ directory as an example because submitted links are tested by human beings with integrity, for the honesty used in site description. Search Engine Watch and other search watchers tend to show fewer than these 1705 engines, primarily because a lot of the engines provide very little value.
