There isn't anything fancy about learning how to shake someone's hand properly or about being taught how we should look people in the eye when we talk to them, but this is exactly what we are being taught in most persuasion books and hypnosis programs on the internet.
Oftentimes we are encouraged to tell people crafty stories to persuade other people, but even the use of what is now being referred to as "hypnotic storytelling" has its origins in grade school. For centuries little kids have been making up stories to impress their friends, so why are the persuasion gurus charging hundreds of dollars for these so called secrets?
What's the big deal about all the hype surrounding what is now being referred to as "hypnotic storytelling"? Heck, little kids could teach us that trick!
Seriously, some of the biggest names in hypnosis are selling repackaged information that you can find in your local library, and as you may have noticed they are selling it for hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars. They teach the same stuff: matching and mirroring, storytelling, various forms of eye contact and body language, and just about every other thing that you learned about persuasion and making friends when you were in grade school.
This is why a true persuasion artist is as rare as a diamond, but when you actually hear a true persuasion artist speak, you immediately know that you're listening to someone who knows some high powered information about human behavior and how to demonstrate human behavior in such a way that we can create various forms of behavior in other people.
Then, after we create behavior patterns in others, we can easily get them to get what we want them to do. This is what the social sciences refer to as "The Strategic Method". The Strategic Method focuses on human behavior and social structures, because by controlling these important things it is easy for us to control everything else.
Dr. Jonathan Conrad Groves, who is considered by many to be the leading authority in persuasion circles, is the man who actually coined the phrase, "Elementary Persuasion", because of how weak and childish most of the books and programs on the topic of influence and persuasion are on the market today.
