I LOVE his example where a few "Scientists" Tried to get Women in the Mall
to Give Them Their Phone #'s.

BEST RESULTS by 300% ?

Women standing in Front of a Flower Shop - Were ALREADY in a sort
of Romantic Mood - cuz of the FLOWERS in THE WINDOW.

And thus Gave Away their Phone #'s to Total Strangers.

UNFORTUNATLEY.

Some Very, Very Bad Guys Who Robbed M*illion D*ollar Homes.

DUBBED "The Flower Bandit Gang"

Discovered that when they pulled up to a HUGE MANSION
In a Flower Bedecked Panel Van and went to the door to DELIVER A BIG
Bouquet of FLOWERS.

The Maid would LET THEM IN!

And all of this 20 YEARS Ahead Of Mr Cialdini.
Wow!

Thanks Gordon and Glenn...!

This is GREAT!

I've always loved Glenn's stuff... I think your post, Gordon, helped to articulate why that is the case (as I couldn't quite articulate it myself... I just knew there was some absolutely amazing stuff there)!

I did start reading Pre-Suasion... But, shame on me, I got distracted and didn't finish it... I'm going back to reading it...

As a (very wealthy) mentor of mine says, he's addicted to what works. I'm trying to make sure I have that mindset. Focus on what really works... And you'll go far!

That's what we've got here... (Both today, and in years past...) We have a whole collection of what really works. It's valuable, and the key to life success!

(I'm not really into the mystical mumbo-jumbo you see around quite a bit... It makes you feel good, but does it really work?)

We've got a great meeting of the minds here, I'd say!

On the mystical mumbo-jumbo, one of my brothers is a fund manager, and makes quite a bit every year. His mother-in-law once commented, "(Brother's name) knows the Secret!" She had just read "The Secret"... (Of course, my brother rolled his eyes...) To me, it's more finding out what works, and doing it!

Awesome posts... Thank you, gentlemen!

Best wishes,

Dien
