![]() Hi Glenn,
Wow, you sure cover some really deep and powerful stuff in this post...! Quote:
There is great power in being "connected" to a well-known, approved of, and trusted "name"... That's one reason why companies will pay "big bucks" to hire trusted and liked celebrities to endorse their products. And you know it works, even with "older" celebrities past the height of their popularity. An example is Suzanne Somers (of "Three's Company" fame) for the Thighmaster, which sold like hair dye at a punk convention. I experienced this myself. To make a long story short, when I was studying (post-grad) at university, I spent six months at the University of California, Berkeley, to be a visitor at the research group of a relatively famous physicist (at least he's famous among physicists). When I went back to my (lesser known) university, the physics faculty seemed to hold me a little bit in awe, even though I was just a student! What had happened was that some of the "glamor" of this famous physicist had somehow "rubbed off" on me! Quote:
Suddenly, a "switch" gets turned on, and they think, "that person understands me, and understands my problems and my situation"... Quote:
I just want to repeat that, this is very, very powerful stuff you've shared in this post, Glenn! People can use this stuff - to make their lives easier, to make themselves richer, and to make themselves even more persuasive... The most successful people are doing it, and it's "under the radar" - as Glenn pointed out! But... Glenn has pointed out how it works... Amazing stuff! And I know (from having talked with you) that what you share here is just the "tip of the iceberg." Thanks Glenn! Best wishes, Dien |
