If you’ve heard the talk about “conversational hypnosis” you may be wondering what this technique is, whether it really works.
Essentially conversational hypnosis is simply building rapport with people, so that before they know it, they’re agreeing wit you.
Once they agree with you, you subtly plant ideas and suggestions, so that before they realize it, they’re acting in accordance with what you want them to do.
The technique isn’t new, it’s been known for many years. It’s a skill which top sales people use, without being aware of it. If you’ve ever bought a car or a house, and later wondered why you went through with the purchase, even though you were determined not to buy, the chances are good that you’ve been a victim of conversational hypnosis.
Could you use this skill?
You could, if you’re in sales, or in any position where you need to get agreement for your ideas and points of view.
However, the skill does take time to learn, and it takes a lot of practice as well.
