Say Yes to Influence

After studying Robert Cialdini’s work for decades, I had assumed that I would never get a chance to meet him.

Cialdini is a scientist, and works in academia and our paths were not likely to cross.

So it was a pleasent surprise to hear my freind Donna Fox talk about Cialdini, an interview, and his new book.

I jumped at the chance to be the videoographer (I held a small camera) and be present for the interview.

From that, Donna connected me with the publisher of YES! and we set up http://Yes50book.com

Here’s a link to the video interview from Donna Fox

We been preparing for our call with Robert Calidini this Wednesday. (If you can’t find the call in codes, just fill in the form in the right hand column and I’ll send it to you).

Dr. Cialdini and I will be taking your questions and discussing his latest book Yes! 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive

Today, we use the net to promote books and authors, and increase the speed at which we can spread a meme or new idea. I’d like to show you exactly what we do, and give you a chance to see how easy it is to increase your own online reputation and results

Step 1 was this site. As soon as I heard that Cialdini had a new book coming out, I registerd a name and started telling some friends. At first, we were just going to have 4 people share a one day event with their mailing lists, but soon, others started asking about the book and the project.. wanting in on the action.

Thats where we decided to take a better approach. As students of Influence, and the Law of Reciprocity, we know that genuine gifts work far better than a one time bribe for building a relationship. So I put the requirement on anyone offering a FREE GIFT that it had to be for everyone that visits this site.. not just book buyers.

Sometimes, and author is so anxious to meet sales goals that they forget why they wrote the book in the first place. No Dr. Cialdini. He’s in this field for the long haul, and agreed to let us promote this book without any forced buying of this book.

Of course, it helps that the book is one that you will want to buy and read.

Our teleseminar/webcast will be open to anyone that wants to learn more about the book. Once you register, we send you the codes and let you submit any questions you have about persuasion, influence, selling online and offline, marketing and the book. You can attend the program live via your computer or any phone, plus there will be a recorded replay available after the event.

There’s no tricks here. Yes, we do ask for your email address, but have restricted the mailing list. You won’t be seeing a lot of offers, just an occasional update about this site, and you are welcome to opt out if you dn’t want to hear from us (there is a one click link in the email we send)

You will be eligible to receive Dr. Cialdini’s “Influence at Work” newsletter with more of the kind of articles that make up the 50 chapters of the book. You’ll get a notice and invitation from his office with a FREE report.

You can promote yourself, your business, or your book

This is the first of several posts about how we do things. Next up will be a summary of our Facebook program, how we spread a new idea using Twitter and social media and blogs. I suggest you subscribe to your RSS feed or return here over the next few days to watch. Each step will take a few minutes, and you can do this yourself for your own business.

One more way to build your reputation is with comments. Just click on the comment button at the end of this post (or any post your read) and let us know what you think. No need to write an essay, but do reference the post, your experience with Incluence and how you use these princples.

Almost like magic, a buzz starts around the net when you participate in blogs and comment. The blogosphere (all the blogs) is filled with community minded folks, they watch the comments on their blogs, visit your web site or blog and share what you have with their readers.

This is real influence with thought leaders, so be careful not to come off as SPAM. Post your real opinions. Write a fresh sentence or two, DO NOT cut and paste comments.

Go aheads, try it now. 93% percent of readers miss this opportunity.. so you will be noticed.

On Wednesday June 18th, we we be talking to Dr. Robert Cialdini, author of Yes! 50 Scientifically Tested Ways to Be Persuasive.

Dr. Cialdini has agreed to take questions from our readers.

Since there will be hundreds of people live on the call, we need to have your questions posted in writing.

What do you want to know for the leading expert on Influence?

Do you have a question about the new book? Those will get preferential treatment, but we hope to answer them all.

You can post a comment here, or use the live interface when you sign up using the form to the right.

The call is FREE, but you have to register to attend and get access to the recording.

When I talk to my direct marketing friends who specialize in “How to Make Money on the Net” niche, I see a direct correlation between them studying Cialdini’s principles and the size of their business. Many credit “Influence” as a major influence on their business.

Many other less successful marketers say they’ve studied the principles, but when you look at their approach, you find they just steal a few ideas a “tricks”

While the “tricks” may work in the short run, the long term effects “faking it” will be a bad reputation and financial loss.

Joe Lavery and Corey Lewis did a program aimed at showing how to use the principles right when selling on the Internet. Their program is called
Instant Internet Influence and sells for $37.

When they saw the new YES book, they approached me to sell you the course. It took one word for me to explain why I said NO. “Reciprocity”

Our goal here is to provide real gifts or training for people serious about studying influence, so I told them that they need to practice what they preach and give you the full course free.

Smart guys.. they said YES!

You can download the complete course at http://instantinternetinfluence.com/vol2_dl.html That page will have a headline “Congraulations on your purchase” but don’t worry.. you aren’t buying it.
