*Why do sales strategies without persuasion techniques fall flat?
*Is there a real difference between manipulation and persuasion?
*How can you tell when others are being dishonest with you?
*Using your body language to open others to your way of thinking.
*What do your hand movements have to do with how others perceive you?
*Are synonyms really the same? Research shows which words are deadly and which are effective.
*Why is likeability so important and how can you quickly establish it?
*Using the law of reciprocity to get others to join your initiatives.
*It’s not what you ask for, but the way you ask for it.
*Authority. How do you project it?
*How do you use scarcity to get others to act now?
*The principle of “negging”, and how it can work to your advantage.
*Implementation: How do you incorporate these techniques on a daily basis?

Frank Damelio earned his MBA at Boston College and has a rare interest in combining the psychological and physiological elements of public speaking. Frank is a national corporate speaker and entertainer whose clients include Procter & Gamble, AT&T, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Crowne Plaza Resorts, Pfizer and many more.
