The Need to Persuade
Perhaps you have also seen the value of persuading others and
realized the edge that it will give you in your life. It does not
matter if all you want is to have better relationships in life or if
your goal is to achieve great riches, persuasion is the key.
Your life will start to change the moment you begin to practice
these persuasion techniques that so few people know. Just
imagine for a moment that by the end of this course not only will

you be able to persuade others to like you, you will also be able
to positively influence others to take the action that you want.
Can you see just how exciting life could be by learning these
powerful secrets?

what so ever. The one being persuaded will eagerly do for you
what you desire. The way to create such a burning desire is to
give people what they really want.

Chapter 2
Global Human Drives
Before you can learn the secrets to easily persuading anyone you
must first understand the human psyche. By understanding the
human mind and disposition you can better influence another by
using what already drives and motivates them.
When those basic needs are not met people will often go through
sever states of depression and unrest until they get what they
want.
7 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Knowing what those needs are will give you an understanding of
how to work with people based on the needs which drive them.

• The Deep Need for Bonding
Once all the other basic needs such as food, money and shelter
are attained most people will do anything to be accepted and
part of a well supported group of likeminded people.
Have you heard others say that they can be very lonely even
among many people? This need to identify with others who
share our thoughts and ideas is essential to the overall wellbeing
of another. Try to recall a time in your life when you did not fit
in with those around you, or even a time where you may have felt
a bit lonely. Can anything be more painful than loneliness?

• The Craving to Be Great
They will seek out others who will feed them those ideas. There
is nothing more stimulating to a person who wants to stand out
than to be told by another that they are great. They will keep
that person by their side as that person feeds their need for
greatness.

Chapter 3
Individual Needs
People are driven by their needs in every waking moment.
Besides the general human needs each individual has his or her
own personal needs which fall into the general category. An
important element to persuasion is to understand what the
individual needs of a person really are. No two people are alike,
so no two people can be treated identically. As stated in the
previous section people are only driven to action based on their
needs. If there is not a need there is no action. And, you cannot
effectively persuade another until you discover what their needs
are.

hard to cure his bald spot, a woman obsessed with getting Botox
or the countless number of people who spend thousands every
year on plastic surgery to look good. All these individual needs,
based on a person to person basis, have their roots in the need to
fit in to our desired group and our need to be loved.
People try very hard to fit into the group that they want to
belong to and that is often preceded by self examination. A
person will try their hardest to fit into the group by striving to be
the best in order to be accepted by the group.
There are communities where people try to out rank each other
with the best cars and the best homes and the best vacations. All
of this will be done even if it eventually leads many to file for
bankruptcy.

Chapter 4
Studying Your Target
In order to persuade others, you have to know your target and
you must know what your target wants. To believe that you can
effectively persuade someone without knowing who they are
would be foolish.
Remember from the previous section when I said that people are
only driven by their wants and needs? In order to lead someone
you have to know what their need is. You can only effectively
persuade someone by giving them what they want. If this seems
vague at first you will soon understand it all.
With that said you can get what you need quickly. It does not
always have to take days or even hours to get the key elements
to influence another but it certainly does take certain methods.
People love to tell you all about themselves and when a person is
in a desperate state of need they won’t hesitate to tell you what
those needs are. It’s quite easy because more often people are
consumed with thoughts of their needs. Those obsessive
thoughts often lead to severe depression. Naturally there are
13 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
degrees to this and each and everyone will react to their needs
differently based on how deeply they are affected.
Think of how many times you were with a friend who went on
and on about their problems. You may have listened for the first
five minutes but where did your mind go for the rest of time after
that? Sometimes a person’s complaining might only make you
think of your own worries and before you know it they are talking
and you are only pretending to listen but your mind is on your
own worries.
You can see this playing out when people are talking. The other
person is only waiting for a moment for the talker to shut up or a
pause in the conversation so he can interject his own story. Then
the moment he pauses the other person interjects the rest of his
story. It’s pure madness but it’s a common pattern in lots of
conversations. People aren’t listening to who you are or what
you are saying, they are only waiting to be heard.
14 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
A good persuader listens and takes mental or physical notes.
You have to pay acute attention and get as much detail about
what is affecting the person you want to persuade.
• The Interrogator
When you apply the interrogative process not only will you be
discovering who the other person is, they themselves may be
uncovering their own inner hidden nature. One of the biggest
faults of human beings is that they don’t take enough time to
15 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
examine their lives or their deeper thoughts. So by leading them
through a journey of their inner mind a whole world will be
revealed.
16 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Step one: get into a quiet place where you will not be disturbed
for several minutes.
Step three: once you are really centered and you are immersed
in the rhythm of your breath begin with the following. Using
your imagination, place your consciousness inside of your target.
Pretend that you are genuinely able to go inside of your target
and become them.
Step four: Pretend that you are your target. How does your
target see the immediate world around them? How does your
target’s needs affect how they see life? How does your target
relate to others? What does your target deeply want? What are
they willing to do to get what they want? What are their
weaknesses and concerns? How does your target see you? How
can you be an effective solution to your target?
Can you now see more clearly who you are dealing with? This
can bring a whole level of understanding. What you do with this
information is up to your character and personal morals. You
can severely manipulate a person with this knowledge or you can
bring empathy to the situation. All human beings need a great
17 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
deal of understanding and non judgment. Use this information to
positively influence others to a higher way of being.

Persuade People to Like You
With so much strife among people you would think it were really
impossible for people to get along. This really isn’t so. If you
truly have the desire to get along with others and to be liked you
will find the following techniques will change your relationships
with others. People will not only like you they will seek you out.
They will prefer your company to others. And, when you can get
people to like you, your ability to persuade them is already half
done.
I am sure at this point you don’t want to go the long and hard
route, you want to build quick trust and likability in everyone you
meet. In this case there are 3 key elements to persuade others
to really like you.

• Show a Genuine Interest

One day to her amazement, he sent her a box filled with fortune
cookies and several beautiful pieces of art with, you guessed it
Dolphins! Can you imagine the impact that guy had on the girl?
People will quickly criticize a thing that they don’t like and say
nothing for the thing that they do like. How many relationships
have gone sour because each partner spent more time
complaining and criticizing the small things which irritated
them? Yet on the other had there may have been numerous
things that their partner did right yet there was not one word of
support.
21 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Highlight people’s positive traits as often as you can. Everyone
has a list of positive qualities. If you took the time to examine
your friends, your coworkers, your family members and your
spouse you will see that every single person has a list of good
qualities. There are many positives to each person. But, do you
know that many people live their whole life without anyone ever
telling them how good they are? Imagine how sad and
underappreciated many people feel about themselves. Yet most
people know all too well the judgment and criticism that others
launch at them all the time.
It’s the rare individual who will make the effort to highlight the
good in others. When you make a habit of complementing others
they will naturally feel very good about themselves when they
are with you. People crave this feeling. They will light up and
feel wonderful when they are with you because you are the one
who generates this feeling inside of them, they will genuinely
associate their good feelings with you.
Now that you have your list you must make it your duty to
genuinely complement each person with at least one of those
positive qualities. The idea of this technique is to do it as often
as you can. Find a way to interject that compliment into a
22 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
conversation as often as you can. You can say something such
as, “You know Mary I was noticing how well you do X. I really
love that quality because few people do it the way you do.”

Psychic Influence From the
Heart Center
Our minds are powerful instruments to transmit thought
frequencies. Your mind literally broadcast thoughts charged
with intense feeling out to any target. This works just like radio
frequencies. Have you ever wondered how those radio
frequencies travel with such an impact to your home? Have you
ever taken the time to think of how a wireless phone is able to
connect you to the source of your call?
We take these things for granted but they are all part of a system
of invisible energetic wave frequencies. These frequencies may
be invisible to the human eye but powerful in their ability to
interact with and influence their target.
25 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
up were repaired. Naturally if you are in a bad relationship
which has gone through many years of being induced with lots of
volatile or negative thought frequencies, it’s going to take a lot of
work on your part to neutralize those old patterns that you have
saturated the other with. It takes doing this daily for several
weeks or months.
Step two – Get into a quiet state where you will not be disturbed
for twenty to thirty minutes. Then place your hand on your
heart.
Step four – Place your hand on your heart. Recall the list of
positive qualities you have written for the person you want to
positively influence with the feeling of love. Start with the first
quality on the list and repeat it over and over as if you are
sending those positive thought out to the other. You may want to
say something such as, “I love the way you do, then fill in the
26 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
blank…or I love this about you.” Whatever positive thoughts you
can achieve allow yourself to do that. Repeat each statement
over and over again at least ten times. Get into a rhythm with
the statements. If you have 5 statements then you should be able
to repeat a total of 50 statements repeating each statement a
total of ten times.

Chapter 7
Persuade People to Your Way
of Thinking
Do you have an idea or a belief that you would like to get
someone else to understand and support but it all seems very
hard? First you must know that people hold very steadily to their
belief systems and guard their beliefs with their life.
You may not have thought of this before but the belief creates
the man. People choose beliefs and concepts that make them
feel safe and comfortable in order to function in the world. Most
of a person’s concepts and beliefs are based on their own
personal experiences. Trying to convince a person of something
that they have not seen nor experienced, is often a bit
challenging.
29 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
When a person meets with a new concept they weight it with
their own concept and if it does not match with their own they
tune it out as wrong.
30 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
This part is crucial. Take a bit of time to examine what the
similarities are between what you want to introduce to the other
person and what they already believe. You will certainly need to
take some time to meditate on the shared similarities between
what they already believe and the new ideas you want to
introduce them too.
Let us imagine that you are speaking with someone who has a
very strong Christian based belief but you are interested in an
alternative religion such as Buddhism. If you suddenly sprung
up and gave your thoughts on Buddhism, the other person would
tell you all the reasons why Buddhism was not the religion for
them, or even why it is not a good religion.
31 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
You can continue like this by becoming even more specific.
Without forcing the other to accept your way of thinking keep
sharing the similarities. Slowly they will begin to accept the
similarities for themselves. You never have to insist on anything.
By introducing the similarities they will gradually begin to
incorporate the concepts you are trying to get them to accept.
In an argument you may want to first show the other how similar
their point is to your point. Explain to them how the two of you
already agree and are actually addressing the same concerns in
a unique way. Be specific by pointing out the things that they
have said that you agree with before introducing the new point.
By doing this you remove the resistance and open the other
person up to taking on your point of view.

Chapter 8
People Are Motivated by
This…
People are not driven by logic people are driven by emotions.
And the greatest emotional motivator is the fear of pain. The
fear of pain is often a greater motivator than the reward that
could be achieved if action were taken.
Did you get that last part? Let’s repeat this part all over again.
People are so overcome by fear of pain and suffering that this
alone will motivate them to take action, even action that may be
illogical. Fear of suffering is a greater driving force than
pleasure. We live in a fear based world. Fear drives people
more than pleasure in most cases. Using a person’s fear of pain
and suffering makes for an easy way of manipulating a person to
take action.
33 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
to supply this is another source of pain that can keep many
people awake all night.
Ill health or the fear of dying is again one of the most troubling
sources of fear that will drive the human need to live, which will
cause a person to do almost anything.
So as you can see all need even the individual needs which seem
superficial are linked to a person’s deeply rooted fear.
A man or woman who has just broken up with their partner will
go through an intense grieving process that will mirror the
grieving process of losing another to death.
34 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
necessary. It will force that person to do anything to get that
partner back, although, they are fully aware that the ex is no
good for them. And, if they cannot get the partner to return they
may grab the next person they meet only to get over the intense
pain of being alone and the pain of feeling unloved.
People who are afraid of the possibility of dying will do just about
anything to prevent the possibility of death. They will do all that
they can to secure good health and a good living so they can
ward off illness which would lead to death.
When a person comes face to face with the possibility of ill health
or dying the fear is enough to drive them to do some very
irrational things. This isn’t to say that many of the alternative
methods of healing are not valid but there are some absolutely
bazaar practices that actually harm others that are too grave
even to mention here.
You can use fear to motivate people into positive action. It’s
done all the time in the news as well as with advertisements for
various businesses.
The next time you sit down to watch your favorite show pay
attention all the advertisements. The best examples are the long
infomercials. They spend a great portion of the earlier part
showing you all the horrors that have happened to a person who
does not have their product, and then this is followed by the
miraculous soothing away of the problem after the product has
been purchased.
35 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Please also note that for obvious reasons this vigorous technique
is not always necessary to use or if used you can tailor it to
moderate levels. Building fear in another can cause adverse
reactions, such as panic, depression and so forth. Be certain to
follow up with the solution. Never ever leave another hanging in
a state of despair. The energy you create in others will either
bless you or curse you. Besides, people love others who can not
only show them the dangers or possible fears that could occur,
but they will love you more for showing them a solution to those
problems. They will literally associate you as the savior to their
worries and fears.
Step two – Can you amplify what they may loose with as much
emotion as you can? Can you find at least 5-7 horrible possible
outcomes if no action is taken?
Step three – Hold that person in that state for several long
minutes. Keep talking about the horrible possibilities for a while.
36 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
As you do allow the feeling of fear to become strong and built up
in their mind.
Step four – Watch their reaction, you know when they are
hooked if and when they begin to feed the fear with their own
possible worries and thoughts. They will begin to agree with you
and fill in the story for themselves.
Step five – Present them with the solution. That solution should
be what they want and what will alleviate their pain, fear and
worry. The solution should be an obvious solution and one that is
very helpful. Just as you created a lot of emotional fear, create
just as much emotional relief and excitement for the solution.
Amplify the solutions and don’t stop until their emotions shift
from a fear based emotional level to a hopeful and excited and
relieved emotional level. This excited, relieved emotional state
will be backed up by the fear they previously experienced and
they will be very relieved to take the action that you want them
to take.

The Covert Way to Persuade People
to Do Exactly What You Want
There is a popular saying that states, ‘One should bait the hook
to suit the fish.’ This is where it is important to know the needs
of a person you want to influence. No two people are the same,
and each must be baited with what will drive him to take action.
39 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
friends. It was something he spoke about endlessly because it
really troubled him. The others were stronger and because of
their size they were often taken much more seriously. This really
affected his self esteem in the group. Naturally he really had the
desire to become fuller.
One day the mother saw her cue. She said to him, “You know
you are so thin because you eat too many French fries and
chicken nuggets and way too many sweets. Do you know that if
you eat a large plait full of delicious broccoli and spinach with
real chicken or beef you will actually become stronger and
bigger?” Whether this would make him as big as he wanted did
not matter. All that mattered was that she never had to tell him
twice to make him willing to eat more healthy choices as she had
planned.
40 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
There is no greater place of difficulty than trying to persuade
your partner to take out the trash or do some of the things that
they may not be willing at first to do. Nagging and begging very
rarely ever work. It may work for that immediate moment but
because the person is not motivated they will return to the
previous behavior patterns.
After she had left for her trip she realized that she had made
everything about that trip about her. Basically she tried to
convince him about how much fun she was going to have and
how much money she was going to spend to make herself happy.
She even tried to convince him to come along to make her happy.
When it occurred to her what she had done she saw a new way to
convince him. Her boyfriend had recently bought a brand new
camera. He absolutely loved photography and he was always
looking for new exciting sceneries to capture. In addition to that
he had joined a new photographers group where the members
shared some of the amazing photographs they had taken. He
had recently complained that many of his pictures were lacking
41 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
that wow factor because it was still quite cold and drab where he
was at that time of the year.
This was the essence of her persuasion and as she painted even
brighter images of what he would benefit from coming, she made
sure to no longer ask him to come or even talk about her needs.
Instead she seemed happy without him she was simply painting
images and a story in his mind that supports what he wanted.
The idea of all the great images he could take with his new
camera. The much needed vacation that he really could do with
plus all the fun his girlfriend seemed to be having as she met
new people he decided that he could afford a mini break after all.
By the next day he was on his way to meet her in the Islands.

The covert way of persuasion is to match what you desire to the
needs and wants of others. This takes thought, it takes some
time to contemplate upon how what you want can be linked to
what the other person wants. Remember to become your target
by shifting your awareness inside of the one you want to
persuade. Become them, know what will drive and excite them
to take action, and then match it to what you want.
There are 3 things you need to know about the average person.
The average person cannot easily use their imagination.
43 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
The second thing you must know is that most people do not know
how to imagine a solution to their problems. It is like a car
whose wheel has being stuck in the mud. People can replay the
problem again and again and again without ever using their
imagination to find a solution.
The third thing you must know is that people want to be led; they
want a solution to the problem that they cannot solve. The first
chance that a valid or what seems like a valid solution presents
itself 99.99% of people will accept it and be happy.
Step One - You must set aside some quiet time alone where you
will not be disturbed.
44 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Step Three - Now ask yourself, “What do I really want? In what
way do I really want it? Now ask yourself who your target would
be if you don’t already know.
Step Five - Can you see, feel, smell or taste what they want? As
you use your imagination create a full picture of their wants and
their needs. See them fulfilling their wants and what it would
take to make them feel content. Can you come up with at least 7
benefits to having them achieve their goals? Doing that, will fill
you with a greater understanding that you can later use to
motivate them into action. As you create the details write them
all down. Remember that people need to be stimulated with a lot
of positive details that support what they want and need in order
to take action.
Step Six – Using the power of your mind see yourself talking to
them about what they will achieve. Still using the power of your
imagination, see them agreeing to it and getting very excited
with the exact points that you are presenting to them. Keep
yourself in that meditative state with them for as long as you can
as you do see them growing increasingly excited by your ideas.
Step Seven – Now it is time for you to present your points and
ideas to them physically. Talk to them as you hold them in that
place by talking about the positive benefits they could gain.
Remember it is all about them and very little to do with what you
want at this point. The longer you entertain the ideas and
benefits with them their mind will become convinced, their
resistance drops and they will soon no longer need you to tell
them anything. They will begin to paint the picture for
45 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
themselves and then take the action that you already conspired
for them to take.
Eight powerful steps to get what you want! The number eight is
a powerful and divine symbol of giving and receiving. Add value
and value will return to you. This value obviously is based on a
perception and a person’s needs yours and theirs. There is no
need or level of persuasion that is too great or too small.
46 Copyright © 2010 Chris Hutchison
Conclusion
The ability to persuade others in love or business is a great skill
for anyone to have. True success depends on persuasion. A true
persuader cannot help but have a great, fantastic life because he
understand that true persuasion is about creating a symbiotic
relationship with others, he is never ever a parasite.

• People are driven by fear much more than they are driven
by pleasure. Use fear to drive others to positive results.
