Five Steps To Powerful Persuasion

  1. Illustrate the problem and associate pain to it.
  2. Preemptively deal with any objections that you have researched and you know that your audience has.
  3. Convince them that your plan of action is actually consistent with the type of person that they are and the type of person that they want to be. It's a logical extension of their current value system, not a deviation from it.
  4. Paint the heaven that happens if they go in the direction you want them to.
  5. End with an "ask." You cannot force them to.
