Brainwashing Technique - This Should Be BANNED!
First of all...a very Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the USA. I've posted a new video that I just recorded after a full day's events. So excuse the bags under the old eye-lids of this poor 25-year-old and enjoy the content. It's good stuff about persuasion.
What Were You Wearing?
After a weekend off, are you ready to take your skills to the next level? In today's episode we talk about the impact your clothing has on your success in persuading people. I also give tips as to colours to wear for specific desired outcomes.Choosing Your Senses
As well as the latest news, today we're talking about sensory mirroring. Yes thats a technical term and I explain all in today's video.Voice is Back!
In today's blog, my voice is back. Also we have a change of name and a phenomenal technique for influencing people to fantastic effect.Danger Danger
Danger Danger --Today an early start, then a conference call followed by a performance this evening. All fantastic news.
Unfortunately I woke up with no voice this morning. So I'm afraid there shall be no video today. I just can't get through it without sounding like Marge Simpson.
I'm working on getting myself sorted for tomorrow. Looking forward to being back in front of you.
Kindest thoughts,
Kennedy
P.S. A great way to influence people is to have them see you as friend and family. One way of doing this is to let them in to your life. Tell them what's happening outside of work and you'll create fantastic relationships.
Attracting Persuasion
Today's video blog will be late...but it will be happening. I know many of you need your daily blog fix so thought I'd give you double today. A written one now and the video later. Are those cries of 'YIPPEE' I hear?As persuaders we're often doing the chasing, we're persuading a potential partner, chasing a client to part with his cash, trying to coax our buddy in to getting the drinks in etc etc...
Herein lies our problem. In order to persuade with great effect we need to shift the roles around. We need to look for ways to change things so they are chasing us, to buy from us, to get our numbers and to buy our drinks. HOW?
Aha- this is where it gets exciting. If you saw me in a bar at the weekend you might come over and say 'hi' right? We'd probably talk about the mad antics on the blog, gigs, your work, I'd ask you what I could add to the blog in order to make significant changes in your life and we'd have fantastic fun. Would you buy me a drink? It's more than likely that you would.
Later today, in the vlog (that's the techno-geek name for Video Blog) we'll start discussing why you would be so inclined. AND I'll show you what else I'd do in order to force you in to rushing to the bar and get the drinks in.
Thanks for your continued support...appreciate it so much! The vlog will be ready later, sign-up to 'Stalk this Idiot' and I'll email you the moment the vid is online. SMILE!

RAPPORT PART 3
Be prepared to see a man on the edge of sanity in today's installment. Enjoy today's news and the Feature where we continue the discussion about Rapport - you'll even hear some German lingo.RAPPORT PART 2
Today's psychology news update looks at the dangers around multi-tasking and we look at a method for building long-lasting rapport.Freud's Theories Impact on Our World
One of my all time favourite videos. In this we discover how Edward Bernays interpreted his uncle's (Sigmund Freud) theories and changed the world. He convinced women to smoke and the American people that war was a fantastic idea. In this video Adam Curtis examines exactly what happened:Don't Make These 3 Mistakes When Asking Your Boss for a Pay Rise
You work your behind off don't you? A few extra pounds a month would help make things a little easier right now wouldn't it? You deserve a pay-rise, right?Well if you're going to ask for a wage increase then you only really get one chance. Here's a few tips of what real people have done, thinking they'd get a pay-rise and...well, you guessed it, they received something quite different:
1. Loads More Sales. Just goes to show how narrow some bad managers are. Someone I know was a little strapped for cash. Working in direct tele-sales he thought he'd work super-hard for a month and then ask his boss for a wage increase. Boss' response..."you did it for a month already on that wage so you can keep doing it." Short sighted, I think so.
2. Sleeping with the Boss' wife (or husband). Talk about reverse psychology. A bloke from London right here in the UK, thought he would get 'close to the boss' wife' so that she would put in a good word for him. The result? Boss finds out, divorces her, fires the man and our bright young hero never sees his boss' wife again.
3. Singing in the workplace. In 2007 a woman decided she wanted to 'bring some Christmas cheer' in to her place of work in an attempt to super-size her winter bonus. After singing Christmas carols for just 30 minutes she was dismissed. But why...? (answers in the comments box below or tweet your answer @mindofkennedy)
