There’s NOTHING good about being deceived.
I realized this years ago when I was studying influence, persuasion and the human psyche.
After completely dominating sales in multiple markets and seeing first hand how the mind of a person can be moved from a “no” to a “yes, where do I sign and do you take credit cards?” by simply knowing what to say, how to say it and when to say it I started diving deep into the subject of psychology.
I wanted to see what all the “decorated” professionals had to say about how the mind works.
I was instantly fascinated and what I learned. Then I was greatly disappointed.
Why?
Because the high ranking psychologists from Cambridge who made these huge contributions to the world of psychology had NEVER been in the shark infested waters that I found myself in on the streets of New York City.
They never had to deal with a customer who outright tells you to “get lost”.
They never found themselves face to face with a hostile prospect who is trying everything he can to get you to give away the house for free .
They never had to elegantly and craft-fully figure out a way to close the deal and make the customer the feel good without giving in to his outlandish demands.
That’s when I started developing this thing called “Maverick Influence”.
Maverick Influence is a street smart approach to traditional psychological compliance gaining.
In other words, it’s blend of everything I’ve learned about the human psyche in textbooks, journals and immersion of study with everything that I’ve learned works in real life situations.
One of the very first exposures to harsh reality that I had when I was trying to execute what I’ve learned in live situations was that it all means nothing if someone is not being honest with you.
