Knowledge about persuasion

As what i learned, Persuasion is achieved through written or spoken communication that conveys information, thoughts, emotions, logic, and arguments. I learned here also that an effective communication often involves persuasion. Sometimes a message is meant to convince an audience of the rightness of a certain choice or course of action. This often involves getting people to change their minds. This book is truly informative and very helpful. I liked how the author shared his knowledge about persuasion.

Shatner-esque performance detracts from content.

It's as though the Earth was the narrator's second planet.

Too many platitudes — tigers, destiny, ivory towers, oh, my!

"Ask good questions." Well, if you're an idiot, this is kind of tough, isn't it? **What** is a good question?

Astrology logic: "You have determination and grit, but aren't pushy. You are passionate, but have self control. Look for romance when Taurus crosses Saturn."

Incoherent structure.

Persuasion

It's a very interesting read on persuasive techniques and how to use them in a positive way to drive and increase sales. I thought the chapters on the actual science and psychology behind the sales were extremely beneficial. Overall, an informative read.

Great book, horrible narration

It is a great nook but the narration is so bad and distracting it hurts.

Not truly science-based.

If you’re looking for a VERY basic book on persuasion or you’ve never read another book on the topic, I guess this might get you started. If you’re already in the sales profession or you’ve read any other books on the subject, you’ll likely be disappointed. I was...

While the book title includes “The Science of Selling”, this book was completely void of any real scientific evidence to support the author’s claims and narrative. Mostly you’ll just hear opinion, generalizations, and over-used cliches, e.g. “People buy from people they like.”, etc.

If you’re going to spend time and money on the subject, spend a little more and get “Influence” by Dr. Robert Cialdini because that book really is science-based.

The narrator is also extremely distracting and choppy, so between that and the lackluster content, this book was difficult to finish.
