Science Of Persuasion 1. Reciprocity. We are obliged to give if we have been given something. 2. Scarcity. If it's scarce, we want it more. Use this by highlighting the Benefits, Uniqueness and Possible Loss. 3. Authority. We are more likely to comply with a request if it is coming from a perceived authority/expert. 4. Consistency. We want to be consistent with our past commitments, even if the initial commitment is much smaller. 5. Liking. We like people who are similar, who give us compliments and who co-operate with us. 6. Consensus. If others (especially similar others) are doing it, then we are more likely to do it ourselves.
+Azure Nyoki if you are interested in this subject, you should watch the video. The summary is accurate, but you need the examples given in the video in order to fully understand what is being summarized, if that makes sense.
Saw this when i was in college... now in sales and after 7 years i subconsciously follow all of these... this video is a single gamechanger for me.. thanks with all my heart
Not to be a nit picker, but since almost all of this is based on stats, a correction needs to be made. A 400% increase is not a 4X increase. A 400% increase is 5X. A 100% increase is 2X, a 200% increase is 3X, etc. This mistake is quite common, but frustrating to see it on a video viewed by over 3 million people. If 10 people allowed the sign in one neighborhood and 40 people allowed it in the other neighborhood, that is 4 times as many, but it's only a 300% increase. Hopefully this makes sense and someone has already posted about this.
After looking at this video not only I learned the factors that influence us to say yes but also about the six shortcuts that guide our decision making. The six shortcuts are: reciprocity, scarcity,authority, consistency, liking and consensus. The shortcuts are used to help us decide the best decision in an ethical way. If you use these types of shortcuts, most of the time someone will say yes or feel persuaded by your request.I really enjoyed how the reciprocity example was shown by explaining how if you invite someone to your birthday party, in return you will expect the invitation for their birthday party as well. What I learned from reciprocity is that you should always give before and make it significant and personalized. That way it will be easier for you to be more persuasive and obtain your goal. Furthermore, the second principle I liked the most is scarcity.Scarcity has to do with the idea that when a resource is scarce more people will want it. The scarcity principle can be used to persuade people by showing them how the resource is unique, and then more people will want it. On the other hand, liking is about saying yes to people you know well and people that you like. As mentioned in the video, you like people that cooperate with you, that are similar to you, and that gives you compliments. To persuade people by liking, you have to look for things you have in common and things that you both like. It is going to be easier to persuade someone if you have things in common. In conclusion, to persuade someone in a moral way, you have to use the six shortcuts to be successful and create changes in the world.
This is entirely social influence. To retain a strong sense of self, not conflated with the identity of others, withdraw before making decisions, for a day or more, if possible. In this way, one vastly reduces the error of blaming or crediting another for one's decisions, a much better and more accurate way to live. Religion is crediting and blaming another, imaginary, but deceptively sanctified.
Another example of reciprocity: Someone invites you to a tupperware party and tells says you don't have to buy anything. You get there and they serve you a meal. You feel like you owe them something so you buy tupperware. The meal costs far lees than the $100 worth of tupperware you buy. The lesson..... don't go to tupperware parties.
As Haydo B said. Plan ahead. Leave your wallet at home or you cash + Bank/Credit cards at home.. ;) Invite them over to your house next time for food if need be.
There are a lot of comments here about using these principles unethically. I contend that if your product or service is of genuine value, then using some gentle persuasion is good for everyone. If in the end, the outcome isn't a win-win, then the persuader is a crook! Good negotiations is about everyone coming away feeling good, not being "conned" into something bad. If anything, the education here let's you recognize the con artist for who they are, and head it off at the pass.
Sales people are some of the most easily sold. Even knowing about these methods isn't going to fully protect you from them. Certainly a sale could be a win for the customer and the seller but who get's to decide? The seller might thinks it's going to be a win-win but the seller is biased. Instead of using these indirect methods why not honestly state your products benefits and short comings. Why not make a reasonable argument based on objective facts? I suspect it's because the marketer would rather make a sale then be genuine. People are easily led but that doesn't mean you should do it.
This video was extremely thought provoking. It goes through the six, what they call, “shortcuts” to guide decision making and persuasion. These shortcuts are reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. Reciprocity is the obligation to give when you receive. Scarcity is when someone wants something because they can’t have it, or it is hard to have it. Authority is wanting something because a person with authority testifies to how good it is. Consistency is looking for and asking for small commitments that can be made. Liking is the idea that people prefer to say yes to people that they like. Finally, consensus is when people look to the actions of others in order to determine their own actions. I thought all of these shortcuts were extremely interesting. As they said in the beginning of the video, persuasion is a science and something that can be learned. In a business sense, these are just 6 easy ways to persuade someone to like your products. Using these simple shortcuts can really impact your brand and image which in return will help you bring in more customers. This is in no way manipulation. If you tell the truth and only are honest to your audience then persuasion is not a bad thing.
I feel like i have learned so much more from this 12 min video than from the whole 2-month unit in English class about advertisements. god bless you for that!
It's amazing how effective the "fear of loss" is on people. I was in a door to door sales job as a kid and my employer told us to make the customer feel as if the product you're selling was going away when/if they said no. It didn't always work but it was pretty cool.
One of the greatest takeaways from this video is the idea of how we as humans have innate biases when making decisions. The six factors in persuasion; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus actually remind me of survival tactics we have developed over time to blend into a group. We are social beings and even when looking into the animal kingdom, we see how it is beneficial to not stand out. In those scenarios, it could very well be the difference between life and death. Although it is not that serious in a situation, such as trying to get a business deal, it is something innate in us so we feel as though we are making the right decision. For example, the factors of consistency, authority, and consensus speak to this. Consistency and authority play into how we trust one another. We believe the people with the right credentials or who have shown loyalty and consistency will make the right decisions for us or will guide us in making them while for consensus, you are letting the decisions or thoughts of others guide your own. You are following the group so as not to stick out. As humans we have flaws that allow for these shortcuts in persuasion.
😂 You are overthinking this with all that nonsense. Offering a shortcut for people over the fear of making an unwise decision. Skipping past a selfish agenda mindset to a brotherly love mindset. Were busy and can't be sold if we're looking for something better due to lack of confidence. The other one is self explanatory.
Oh and consistency and consensus are about tapping into the thought process to get that emotion or confidence. It's like a bad habit if it makes you feel good you do it, if you have a thought process that keeps you mindful of the negatives playing out you create active opposition.
Because I like you so much, I'm giving you this free video to say thank you for being there. As someone who's watched human behaviour for nearly 50 years, you might be interested to know that after watching this video, 75% of people reused the towels in their bathrooms!
I listened to 'The Marketing Book Podcast: "Influence" by Robert Cialdini' and stopped here. By the way, I discovered on this podcast that Professor C. just launched his new book "Influence, New and Expanded: The Psychology of Persuasion". I'm so excited to read this one. Thanks for all, Professor C.
The key points from this video are directly applicable to our course goals this semester. We can use the tools from this video to treat leadership as a process and focus on the situation at hand. By following the reciprocity shortcut, we can understand that people are more likely to give back to others when they receive something. As a leader, if you need assistance, you should give before you ask for a favor. By following the scarcity shortcut, we can see the value in exclusivity. People are more likely to buy if it is scarce. By following the authority shortcut, we can understand how influential status can be. As a leader, to build trust among coworkers or colleagues, one can show what they bring to the table. There is a difference between being boastful and being demonstrative. Consistency is another shortcut directly applicable to leadership. By delegating smaller tasks to start, in the future one is able to delegate larger tasks and can trust the job will get done. Liking is an important shortcut in leadership. A leader can try to find common ground with others so that they can get off on the right foot. Consensus was the last shortcut used. Getting multiple people on board will eventually help all others get on board.
Thanks for the video. It's a great snapshot. I loved Dr. Cialdini's book: Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. You will be shocked to find out how much we are unknowingly manipulated every day. And you'll be grateful to receive tools from Dr. Cialdini that show you how to defend yourself from them. It's an easy and compelling read.
Science of persuasion it's a great short video, and all the people who aspire to be a leader or that already are leaders need to watch and analyze it deeply. These six shortcuts explained in the video are key psychological tips to improve your leading and selling skills. The first one is reciprocity, which as you may know, it´s the social obligation to respond by giving others what they have given you in the past, to kind of balance the situation, if you help me, I help you. Scarcity talks about these limited things that exist in the world and because of the limited amount, it´s more exclusive, so it´s more expensive, just because they are not unlimited. Authority refers to the psychology behind uniforms, batches, titles, etc. When you see a uniform it´s more likely that you trust this person. Consistency can be explained with an example, like when you vote for a candidate of the party you support, even though you don´t even know him/her, just because you want to be consistent with your political decisions. Liking is one the easiest ways to persuade people, if you find things in common with someone it´s most likely that you are going to get along better with him/her. Finally, the consensus is when you see that similar people to you are doing something, and you do it because they are similar to you, so you trust them.
When watching Science of Persuasion, I noticed that the video uses a lot of psychology techniques taught to me from my time at college. For example the consistency commitment is the same principle as the foot-in-the-door principle where people are more likely to say yes to a bigger favor if you start small. One foot in the door leads to an opportunity to be listened to later allowing successes in other favors to be more likely. Same thing with the scarcity principle, people like to feel as though that what they have is important or sought after. Having something seem scarce makes whatever you are selling, buying or doing seem more interesting. The Science of Persuasion truly does have some credibility in hosting real-world scientific techniques and it is proven to work in more than just the business world.
+George Christiansen Nah. They know. Those gangsters probably enact it them selves and/or have sicko stories. But they also know the bright side of the moon.
This video was very interesting because it went into a deep explanation of how to persuade people into saying yes. So, the video dove deeper into the explanation right from the start and gave 6 shortcuts in regards to affecting human behavior. The 6 shortcuts are: Reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. Employing these 6 shortcuts could significantly increase the chances for someone to say yes to a certain request. Reciprocity is simply the obligation to give something after you receive something. Scarcity can be defined as people wanting more of something when there is less of it. Authority explains that the people will follow credible knowledgeable experts. Consistency is the process of looking for and asking for commitments that can be made. Liking proposes three different factors: 1. People who are similar to us. 2. People who pay us compliments. And lastly, 3. People who cooperate with us. Lastly, consensus is defined as when people will look to the actions of others to determine their own. These 6 steps will help you not only understand people better, but also make it an easier pathway to persuading people to say yes to certain requests.
There is good information in this video about persuasion. These six principles seem to be very effective and useful to anyone who is pursuing a business career. The principle of reciprocity caught my attention with the example of how the number of mints had a very strong positive relationship to the size of the tip a waiter/waitress received. This can then be applied to other respects of business too. If you are a salesman and go to a dinner with a possibly customer and gifting them a bottle of wine can go a long way. Outside of business this is a great habit to practice anyways. Giving to friends/hosts is something that should always be done. However, it should be noted that the gift should not be given with the pure intent of receiving something in return. This video does not talk about the moral side of giving just to receive but I think that the giving should be done out of good will and there should be satisfaction in the feeling of giving and making someone happy.
This video explained the benefits of persuasion from a science perspective. I have never heard of some of these applications before but they all make sense. If a friend buys something I will follow through and buy too. I have been at stores where if the employee has the clothes on that they are selling it is easier to sell. I work in a retail store and have used these tactics without even noticing. We will mention quantity if the item is low in stock but not if there are lots of the same item made. Scarcity improves the chances someone will buy something on the spot. I do not think that persuasion is the same as manipulation. This is because it is not what you say but how you present it. Finding a common interest with someone is always a friend approach no matter what you are trying to accomplish. If you are in the same class as someone but mention you know one of their mutual friends or are from the same state, then you have a higher chance of being friends which can lead to a multitude of opportunities. In the scarcity tactic for retail, Everything is the same about the item being sold or idea. The only difference is the features being highlighted.
The Science of Persuasion is an interesting video because it shows how being persuasive isn’t something you’re born with but learn over the course of your life. One of the fascinating parts of the video was Reciprocity. The idea that both parties need to mutually benefit is so important when it comes to trying to persuade someone. This past summer, while I was interning as a cold caller for a Cybersecurity company, I found that relating to others and acknowledging and being respectful to them made your chances of getting them to a meeting more likely. I love the examples they gave about the waiter and the idea of “being unexpected and personal.” I think authority is another important aspect of being persuasive. Not only do people follow credible, knowledgeable experts, but they also follow individuals who are confident in their selves. Having a backbone when presenting an argument goes far when trying to be persuasive. Showing others how passionate they are about something increases your chances of being persuasive. Other parts of the video I enjoyed were the Concorde and the likeability examples. The ability to communicate your thoughts and ideas is an essential skill to have in any profession you pursue.
I was never one for persuasion. I always feel like people are trying to trick me, always trying to make it look like they have my best interest, when actually they're the one profiting from the idea/activity/whatever. That was mostly when I was a kid and a teenagers, but then, as I grew older, my "feeling" of it became a solid certainty!
A lot of persuasion is for a win-win. For example, I have a product that I have been persuading people to buy for over 10 years. The reason I am still doing that with the same product is because the people who bought it gained more than what it cost them. They won and I won. Things like dealing with the government is often a win-lose situation. You have to do something because the government mandates it and it is not in your interests to do it, yet the government tries to persuade the public it is good and just - even when it clearly is not good or just for most people. So you need to be selective and realise that just because someone it trying to persuade you, it doesn't mean they are trying to trick you, even when they are also profiting from it.
How can i persuade you that i am honest? Feelings becoming solid certainties. You have arrived at delusion, at conspiracy theory, at dogmatic conservatism. Try instead to think critically about everything, ESPECIALLY your own beliefs and overgeneralizations.
@@briseboy You[re preaching to the Pope... I always think critically about everything. Of course small comments on UA-cam reflect your momentary feelings about some issues, and you're fucising on some particular events. I can see how you can interpret it as delusion and paranoia, conspiracy theories and etc. But thatt's not the case. If you need to "persuade" someone, you´re trying to force some idea onto that person. You can do that by trying to convince someone with arguments, or, it is a meaning of the word nowadays, induce someone to beileve something. The way I see it, persuasion has at least a slight part od "force". I don´t see it as simple convincing someone with arguments. It is true though, that a lot of people need to be persuaded, because they are stupid, and an example of that are social laws. It is persuasion, because without them, a lot of people would act as animals, driven by instincts (weel it already is, for a great parte os people, specially criminals, but not only them). the distance in terms of intelligence and "I.Q." also matters. But you see many people who are very capacitated in terms of science, for example, but have sme twisted beliefs. A lot of terrorists and even nation leader are very intelligent people, but their emotions are what´s driving them. We can see hoe people in the Project Manhattan were all inteliigent. And no one in the position of Truman can be really "dumb". So it´s someonewhat hard to tell apart intelligence and emotional beliefs. Anyway, like I said, persuasion sound to me as trying to forcefully change someone´s beliefs, intead o rationally explaining why someone´s beliefs are innacurate or surreal. But we live in a society where everyone "believes" in thing that cannot be proven (i.e. all religions). Anyway... I don´t overgeneralize, not as a principle. Everyone may say phrasees with overgeneralization, mostly to keep it brief in informal conversations (os internet comments), obviouly the world is to omple to really generalize most things. But, intead os "persuade", why not just "show" the evidence of something? Or logically crae arguments that don´t appeal to emotions, or have a " threat" tone to it?
The video depicts aspects of persuasion that I would not have previously considered. Some of the “short cuts,” or actions that can be taken to persuade, may be done subconsciously. Authority seems the most intuitive when thinking about leadership and persuasion. People innately place trust in others daily based on their titles, degrees, or certifications because they are assumed to be knowledgeable and credible. Leaders tend to have qualifications like degrees which allows them to have this authority and foster more effective relationships. Reciprocity is another interesting part of persuasion. The idea itself, feeling obligated to give when you have received, makes sense, but I had not thought about it in terms of persuasion. Individuals using this aspect of persuasion in business by giving even something small such as a discount or a special can expect a greater likelihood of generosity shown by the customer in return. Distinguishing between persuasion and manipulation also seems appropriate. Manipulation involves influencing someone with a malicious intent while persuasion is influencing someone for the better. Persuasion is mutually beneficial while manipulation typically benefits only one party. In business, persuasion can be used for both parties to get the best out of an interaction.
I enjoyed this video on the six principles of persuasion and how they make you the most effective possible version of yourself. The reason why I enjoyed this video is because of how easy these six principles are to incorporate into your everyday life. For instance, we use reciprocity by doing something for someone else in hopes to get something in return for our actions. I can relate to this because everything you do needs to be personalized and unexpected to separate yourself from others. The second principle, scarcity, is the act of wanting something more than it is available to have. As a result of scarcity, it’s important to show the benefits, tell what’s unique, and describe what they stand to lose to be able to successfully persuade someone in a direction. Persuasion also stems around knowledge and confidence as people will often take sides with the smartest and most confident person in the room regardless of what they might be saying. One of the best principles here is consistency. This is one of the best because consistency shows how something will work after repeated trials of getting the same or better results. If something is consistent, that means that people can rely on it and will often be persuaded to go in that direction. Another way to persuade someone is to get them to like you as they will trust you solely on the fact that they like who you are. Lastly is consensus, that people will look to the actions of others to determine their own. Consensus is an interesting principle of persuasion because it can be based solely on reputation and what other people do instead of following what your interests are.
Thanks for sharing these principles! Guess a thin line between using these ethically and manipulation, but probably a choice we have to make individually. Superb animation !!
The video discusses the principles of persuasion; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking and consensus. Reciprocity is an obligation to give when you receive, the example given was about restaurants and if they give you something, it affects the tip you leave. This reminded me of stores that give you a punch card where you purchase a certain number of items then get a discount after the fifth or so. Scarcity is when people want more of those things there are less of. This made me think of our current situation, as to how certain things at store are now limited to customers because of there being a limited amount of resources. Authority is the idea that people will follow credible knowledgeable experts. The example mentioned was the physical therapists patients are more reliable on their therapist due to their display of medical diplomas, which made me reflect on my experience in physical therapy. Consistency is looking for and asking for small initial commitments that can be made, this made me think of working out and an individual’s weight loss journey because the key factor is consistency. Liking is that people prefer to say yes to those they like, which I found very true and present in my life. Consensus is the last principle, which consists of people looking to the actions of others to determine their own. This made me think of class debates on how some individuals wait until they see others speak about something in order to determine what they will say.
Very informative! I am curious to know the sample size behind these statistics. They seem way too specific to be very large. I'm not an expert but I would like to get some more detail behind the studies before considering them conclusive. Are these one-off's or have the results been repeated?
The two shortcuts to persuasion that caught my eye the most are persuasion and authority. These two made me realize that I follow them in my own life and they are able to persuade me. I would never realize this, but if a waiter gave me a mint and then came back to tell me that I was nice so I got another mint, I would definitely tip them more.
In this video the science of persuasion is real and has a very big impact in everyday life. We do feel obligated to give if we have been given something. The act of kindness also goes along with this act. When someone is kind to you we normally want to reciprocate that and pass it on. I think the science of persuasion also entails a lot of psychology in it. The psychology being when something is done to you and you receive something, you are obligates to want to give that same feeling back to someone.
This is very interesting. It is very clever to increase approval by employing science as a validator for the program. This also gives the impression that it is new and cutting edge. Very clever. However, these techniques were employed by Marcus Tullius Cicero over two thousand years ago. Not only his letters reflect these techniques but two of his works, On the Orator (De Oratore) and Orator also do. Both of these emphasize the importance of personalizing a message, connecting with an audience, finding a way to enter the inner workings of the person addressed. BUT this is done within heavy doses of moral philosophy which Cicero realized was necessary for proper use of such persuasive powers- i.e. the speaker had obligations to employ powers of persuasion for the good of society. This aspect is missing from this presentation.
I was very pleased to find this video-channel.I wanted to thanks for your time for this wonderful video!! I positively having fun with each little bit of it and Ive you bookmarked to check out new stuff you youtube channel post.
When it comes to persuasion as a whole, it is about how you cater towards the person you want to persuade. I found this video to be quite useful and informative, as each tactic teaches how simply one can become more convincing. We are constantly introduced to scenarios where we see one of these tactics being used. Whether they are used purposely or not, they are almost always as effective as the video explains. From reciprocity to consensus, we are more comfortable making decisions when we know that someone else not involved has been in the same scenario or setting. These tactics are extremely helpful in the workplace, and especially in leadership. If a manager wants to succeed at getting their subordinates to do certain tasks, or work differently, they should certainly rely on at least some of these tactics when doing so. Instead of directly asking someone to do something, we are always better off using reasoning than just ordering someone around.
Here I am, reading comments from people saying that this guy draws fast and he's wasted markers. LOL. He's using VideoScribe, a whiteboard animation software. You're welcome.
Thank you, for thinking, believing, pretending, and imagining yourself to be so much smarter than the rest of us. You are officially the dumbass of the month...
Persuasion. It's not about making people do what they don't want to. It's about helping them to see the reasons why they should do it too :) Thanks for the video!
The six different ways that help yourself or others make decisions are; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. The video talks about the relationship between giving and receiving. Moreover, the example they have is gift giving, as a waiter if you were to give something as simple as a mint to the people who you were serving you will see an increase in the tip you give. To me, the most important principle when getting others to say yes was authority. If you show authority on a topic that you know a lot about you are more likely to get others to listen to you as well as agree with you. I agree with this principle. To me not only does being in authority already give you some credibility, if you have someone around you to give you a little bit of praise that amount of credibility you have is even greater. The sway you have over others' decisions, right or wrong if you show that you have authority can be a good and bad thing.
I loved the part where it zoomed out and showed you all the illustrations from the start of the video to the end. Excellent final touch that sums it up very nicely. Subbed.
Good explanation. Now here are tips how to protect yourself if people are using these against you: Reciprocity - I didn't tell you to give me anything, why should I tip? Scarcity - I didn't really needs this offer at the moment, even though I might want it later. Authority - Yes they might be expert, but not everything they say will always be appropriate. Consistency - Too much is enough. Liking - I can't resist this. This is the fairest persuasion. Consensus - Do not Join the hype. Else, you like doing it without a hype.
Dude, if you have a girlfriend/wife you had to persuade her on wanting to be with you. Does that mean your intentions were bad? It's just simply leading a person to make a good decision. It depends on whether you want to improve a persons situation, or manipulating them to do something that will not benefit them
It's about intention, if your intention was 'aggressive' then it's manipulation. if your intentions were kindly then it's influence. or something like that. :)
@@socadas is the same, you have to be with someone that makes a great impact in your life. You don't have to manipulate or persuate anyone. Just do your thing, try to achive your dreams and everything will come.
He brings up a good point. Sometimes, in business, the line between _rhetoric_ and _manipulation_ can be very thin indeed. Think salary negotiations and big business deals. Each side is trying their absolute best to convince/manipulate the other party. If one person knows how to negotiate, they will most likely win the decision most of the time. But the people accepting these deals are sometimes unaware of the small psychological tricks like anchoring.
@@leeannecook986 Well you can have either a good or bad influence on somebody... it all about the intentions your seeking...influence it self is a nothing more than a compelling force capable of producing effects on the actions, behavior, opinions, etc.of another person or of others:
This video does a great job of providing six shortcuts that can aid someone in the art of persuasion. Out of the six methods provided, Authority stuck out to me as the most effective vehicle for achieving success through persuasion. This shortcut of authority is introduced using the idea that people will follow the knowledge of credible experts. For example, if you are looking for a pediatrician and you go into the office to discover many awards and accolades on the wall, you will be inclined to believe that this pediatrician is the real deal and has the authority to back it up. Having a person introduce you as an expert in your field does the trick as well. Establishing the credibility that you are both knowledgeable and an expert will influence those interested in buying into your business or investing in your company. This video highlights the idea that this authority is both ethical and cost less. It doesn't cost a cent to speak highly of a co-worker to set them up for an opportunity and there is nothing wrong with promoting your company or a person by advertising their achievements. This method of persuasion is an organic driver of success for a person or the business in its entirety.
the scarcity study is not relyable, people could have never heard of the flight and wanted it because they heard of it, not necesary because it was scarce. (i dont know how to spell stuff in english
DeathlyDiJ Under which rock were they? not hearing of Concord? no it's perfectly right what was said ok news channels raised awareness people realised they was ONLY A LIMITED TIME to use this service, as in marketing with discounts or special offers
Jason Sparks if i make a product and never make any advertisement for it. i'll only sell 1 per month. then i advertise that it is the last month you can buy it. and i will sell 20 in that month. so you/the vid would say that because of that it sold 20 times more. but if i just made an advertisement saying that this product existed, i would sell 15. so the last month trick excelly only made it sale 33% more, not 1900%
DeathlyDiJ One of the most insulting examples of convincing people to buy something before its too late is the "limited" time release of certain Disney movies to video before they're locked away in their vault.
DeathlyDiJ The specific study cited in this video DID seem a bit funky to me as well, but I'm pretty sure there have been many other more reliable studies supporting this claim.
This video eloquently described the sciences of persuasions. In reciprocity. we are keen to give if we have been given something. In scarcity, our minds are naturally wired to want something more, if a ton are not available. In authority, we are likely to obliged with a request if it is coming from an expert we respect. With consistency, we want to stand by the commitments we make, even if the initial commitment is much smaller. Liking, we like people who are similar to us, and people we can relate to. Consensus, if people around us are doing something , then we are more likely to engage and do it ourselves.
Which means that old people are FAR more skilled at bluffing, cheating deception, graft, fraud, swindling. Illustration: A cheap orange-painted "president"
Given the various ways to persuade others to appeal to their desires, I found this topic in the video to be quite interesting. The film emphasizes the most important "shortcuts," including reciprocity, authority, scarcity, consistency, and others. Finally, the movie emphasizes that we may effectively communicate with individuals directly and yet influence them simply by speaking. Persuasion may appear tough at times, but it may also be done without the person's knowledge, making it much more fun. Today, persuasion is a way of life for everyone. Persuasion is used by several well-known firms and individuals. Overall, it's important to note that many well-known organizations continue to fulfill little modifications in order to continue having an impact or influence on others.
CERTAINLY. I SAY SHEEP SIMPLY BECAUSE THE ELITE OPERATE AS THE SMART MONKEYS. AND THE REST OF HUMANITY FOR THE MOST PART ARE THE SHEEP. BECAUSE THEY HAVE FOUND SCIENTIFIC METHODS TO MANIPULATE THOSE HARD WIRED EVOLUTIONARY INSTINCTS VIA PROPAGANDA AND VIOLENT CONTROL.
+ALBERT EINSTEIN If you call this a proof - it's in my opinion just a collection of claims. He never gives us information, where we can figure out if it's true what he tells.
I love these kinds of doodle videos, they can be so enlightening in illustrating the concept in a very universal way. This video in particular was extremely helpful in explaining the different forms of persuasion and where they originate from. The concept of persuasion has been investigated by many. Specifically psychologists who get down to the details of how a human brain is fabricated and what drives certain actions. I particularly liked the example of the reusable towel towards the end, where a simple addition of a word in a statement creates a completely different reaction to it and thus a different practice. This can be the continuation of the video or simply another layer added to it as to how humans respond to vocabulary, the impact words and sentence composition can have on human behavior and why it is that it works that way. The biggest takeaway from this video is that it comes to the littlest things that influence action and can persuade an individual to act in your favor, a simple mint, removal of something on the market, a quick mention of credentials, a simple sticker on a window, compliments, and change of a word. Anything that falls into these 6 shortcuts can have an interesting effect.
everyone who stumbled across this video had to come across some sort of philosophy or some desire for this type of knowledge for their own personal interest
Persuasion is a science and an ability that some are better at than others. Through this video we are guided through a shortcut that will help us develop this skill of persuasion. The first is reciprocity, which involves the obligation to give when you receive. This is an interesting fact because when you receive something like a freebie or a better service, you are more likely to give back in appreciation. The second is scarcity, you can clearly convince someone faster by pointing out unique features, particularly if they are peculiar or scarce. Authority is also essential when making an influence attempt. You impose authority by introducing yourself as a credible and trustworthy individual, confidence is key with this aspect of persuasion. The next is consistency, which I completely agree with because it demonstrates and creates precedent. The fifth principle is liking and the sixth is consensus. Reading through these principles of persuasion was truly beneficial and I look forward to implementing them in the future when I must persuade or convince someone. These are definitely factors to take into consideration since we are constantly engaging in circumstances where we have to persuade, that be in our personal and professional lives.
+Leo Nev the funny thing is that you liked my personality so much that the first thing you could imagine was to have an intimate relationship with the person who gave me birth.
Communication 103, Professor Gurmilan is the best communication class! I highly recommend this professor if you attend Southwestern college, it was a fun, enjoyable, and learning fall semester for this class!
Magician12345 Using this stuff unethically is simply mostly about hidding information. BUT not to an irrational conspiracy extent. For example, for consistency principle, all you have to do is pretend that something is worth less than what it really is if you want to sell something... or if you have to deal with a boss and you are actually behind in some project while he's hovering over you demanding something and you state that it's close to finishing when you need to pull allnighters to get it done. Also, dumb chicks who get off on spontaneity,... all you have to do is exaggerate every aspect of yourself related to entertaining things and then when you've got nothing to lose (after the sex, etc ) then tell her your basic profile that does sound impressive.... her being dumb will likely lead to not feeling as painful about the lie as otherwise.
Learning how to persuade fits with the class goals because as a leader, it is important to encourage employees to be hardworking and get the job done. They need to persuade everyone that they have everything under control and that following them is the best way. A leader also needs to come up with ideas that will persuade consumers to choose their service or product. Leadership as a concept is more of a process rather than a position. This is because as a leader you influence your followers to do what you choose, so as a leader it is crucial to take all the necessary steps to complete the task with integrity. There are 6 major factors that contribute to persuasion. First, is reciprocity which refers to after you have done someone a favor, they now owe you one in return. Someone who knows they owe you a favor will be easier to persuade because it is only fair. The second shortcut to persuasion is scarcity, which is when someone wants more of something they have less of. Someone is more likely to give into something when it is at a scarce supply because they don’t want to miss the opportunity. Next, authority is something that influences persuasion. People with authority have power and are credible knowledgeable experts. This helps them have a strong sense of persuasion because people trust them. Consistency helps with persuasion because it validates that the person is genuine which means they probably have good intentions. The next factor is liking. If someone is very much liked and respected, people will want to follow them which makes the followers easy to persuade. Lastly, consensus can influence persuasion because people will look at others to determine their own. If the majority of people are doing a certain thing, you will most likely be persuaded to join along as well. Overall, there are many principles for leaders to use when using persuasion.
The video discusses the different ways in which we can persuade other people by appealing to their wants or their human capacity. The principles of reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus were each given as persuasion tactics. Using these tactics we are able to effectively communicate with people while also persuading them to do what it is we wish. This video was particularly interesting because I was able to notice these persuasion techniques from experiences in my everyday life. For example, I work at a restaurant as a bartender off campus, and during my shift, I have the ability to "give away" at my discretion. I usually pick new customers who don't know me because that was it appears as more of a surprise. I will usually wait until starting a conversation with the customers, and then surprising them with the "hey, by the way, that last drink is on me." More times than not the customer is surprised and grateful, and they reciprocate me through a higher tip as a result. By doing this, it also displays a kind of authority that I have if I am capable of giving things out for free. This is another principle from the video that affects persuasion and something that I use in my work. Finally, liking is another persuasive technique I use in my actions to try and persuade a better tip through a better experience. By applying similarities, compliments, and cooperation I am able to enhance the customer experience and hopefully improve my tip.
This is one of the more eye-opening videos that I've seen in a long time. While watching the eleven minute clip, I began to recall moments in my past (business related and not) where I have either been easily persuaded into doing something or had persuaded someone else into doing something for me. While I cannot necessarily speak for the person(s) who had bore an influence on me, I can speak for myself when I say that while I do not recall any previous recollection of any explicit mention of these aforementioned principles, I have most certainly unintentionally applied them when attempting to persuade my friends into doing something for me. From you-owe-me-one's (reciprocity) to miniscule, foot in the door methods (consistency) to limited-time offers (scarcity). I find it very interesting how these principles truly must be universal, given the fact that I can vividly see and play out moments of my life where I have both unknowingly used and fallen victim to these tactics of persuasion. Out of the entire list of six, there is one that I found the most fascinating and stood out to me the most: scarcity. Using the example of the London to New York City concord flights, I find it almost too hard to believe that sales skyrocketed...the very next day. The fact that nothing had really changed except for the fact that there were now less opportunities to fly, had surprisingly caused that much of an increase in competition, truly does amaze me.
There is no occasion when the narrator says "consistency lol." Hearing voices may be a sign of schizophrenia or other serious defect in sensory perception of reality
The kinds of restaurants that care about customer service enough to consider the benefits of giving customers mints with the check are probably the same restaurants that hire waiters of a higher standard.
It is commonly known that leadership is most dependent upon the ability to persuade others. This short clip perfectly illustrates the 6 ways that a leader can persuade others to follow them. Reciprocity is effective in that we as humans naturally feel obligated to give back if we are given something by another person. Scarcity is effective in that if something is scarce, we naturally are more attracted to it. With regard to Authority, people are more likely to agree or listen to someone who is in a position of higher power or is considered an “expert” in a particular field/area. Consistency in itself is very effective especially for people who consistently honor commitments regardless of how big or small they are. In terms of Liking, we as human beings are naturally drawn to people that we get along with and especially those that give us compliments and positive interactions. The final method/principle is Consensus and it is particularly effective when people are uncertain as they look to the actions/behaviors of others to determine what they will do. All of these principles are different from one another in their own respect however, if a leader is able to combine and implement all of these principles in their own managerial tactics, they will be able to persuade others to follow them.
The Science of Persuasion Directions: Read the questions carefully and answer them as you watch the youtube video below. Science Of Persuasion 1. What are the 6 Shortcuts or principles from the video? a. Reciprocity b. Scarcity c. Authority d. Consistency e. Liking f. Consensus 2. What example did they use about the principle of Reciprocity? If a friend invites you to a party, then you are more likely to invite them to a future party that you are having, because you feel like you owe them. 3. Define the principle scarcity. People want more of the things that there are less of. 4. The video says, “It’s not enough to simply tell people the benefits of what they’ll gain if they choose your product”. What else do you need to provide your audience with? You need to provide what is unique about your product, and what they stand to lose if they fail to get your product. 5. Summarize the principle of Authority in 3 to 4 sentences. The principle of authority is that people are more likely to buy from you if they think that you know everything about the product you are buying. If they think that you are an expert, then they are more likely to do what you say. If someone thinks you know a ton about windows and you are always right about them, and then you tell them to buy Feldco windows, you are more likely to buy Feldco. 6. What are the 3 important factors in the principle of Liking? a. We like people who are similar to us. b. We like people who pay us compliments. c. We like people who cooperate with us. 7. Compare the first and second group in the principle of Liking. Why was the second group so much more successful? If you complement a person, they will like you and enjoy being around you, be cause they think you are a good person and will be nice. If you are just similar, you still don’t know if you can like this person, because they haven’t done anything to earn it yet. If you seem similar and then you are complimented, Liking will work best. 8. All of the principles have great points. But if you were to rank the principles from the most important to the least important, what order would you put them in? Why? 1. Scarcity: When people know that something is running out, they feel it’s their only chance to get/use it, and buy it right away so it won’t run out to fast 2. Liking: I have seen the effects of this principle. When someone gets along with you, it is way easier to get them to buy what you want them to, because you’re friends now. 3. Authority and Reciprocity: I consider these two equal. Both are very affective. Reciprocity: When someone does you a favor, you automatically feel urged to do something nice back to them. Authority: If you know more about what you are selling than your customer, then they look to you for guidance. If someone thinks you are a genius, or just a person who is over you, then they look up to you and are more likely to follow you. 4. Consensus: This seems like it would work very well. The increase was extremely high, and it was very effective, and somewhat clever and sneaky to make people do things when they don’t even realize it. 5. All of the points where very good, including consistency. This is at the bottom because I don’t think it would always work. It is still a good point, and is smart to start to small, and than get bigger a little at a time.

These strategies for persuasion are ones which I have heard of and spoken of with peers before. I have always said that the key to having any type of success in the world, whether it be in business or really any aspect of life, is to be able to appeal to people's humanity. When I say this I essentially mean to engage in this type of "scientifically" persuasive behavior. Human interaction is an incredibly important part of being able to find success in business. As mentioned in the video, credentials, commonalities, and general trust building all contribute to your ability to interact with others in a positive and beneficial manner. Creating a demand through persuasive techniques, such as limitations or cancellations like in the example of British Airways is of course an effective way to benefit your business by using general principles of supply and demand to your advantage. However, I think the greatest takeaway from this video is finding applications for human persuasion which help to build future relationships. Acting in a manner which is persuasive, but ethical, such as appealing to one's own humanity by establishing a personal and more specific connection with them is a technique which can benefit both parties. The customer feels well taken care of, and the business prospers. This means of positive human engagement can be lucrative and can easily be achieved in a wholly moral fashion. This is an incredibly important business concept to be aware of. Learning to appeal to people, and connect with them in a way which leaves them with a positive or benefited mindset, can make all the difference in your own success.
A 400% increase does not mean that the new value is 4x as high as the old value. The new value is 400% higher than the old value, so the new value is 400% (the increase) + 100% (the old value) = 500% of the old value, i.e. 5x as high. No one would make the mistake of thinking that a 100% increase resulted in a new value which was 1x as high as the old value.
***** I think you misunderstood what I meant when I wrote that. The 400% increase is added to the already present 100% (old value), which results in a new value that is 500% of (I repeat: of) the old value, i.e. 5x as high. I added the 100% in order to help those who aren't good with maths to understand why a 400% increase is 5x as high as the old value. Another example could be that a 25% increase is 100% (old value) + 25% (increase/change) = 125% (new value) of the old value, so the new value is 1.25x higher than the old value. An example of a decrease could be a 40% decrease, which is 100% (old value) - 40% (decrease/change) = 60% (new value) of the old value, so the new value is 0.6x as high as the old value. We're in agreement, you simply misunderstood my comment. Had I written that the old value increased by 400% and then by 100% (or vice versa) then the new value would be 1000% of the old value, i.e. 10x as high, but I explicitly stated what each value was, again in order to make it easier to understand for those who aren't good with maths.
This video was really interesting to learn from and gave great insight into the art of persuasion. The video named 6 shortcuts to guide decision making which included reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. By using these in an ethical matter, someone can be persuaded by your requests. The shortcut that I found interesting was scarcity, because it makes sense when persuading someone that they want more of things that are scarce. When persuading someone about a proposition, it is not enough to show the benefits of what they want, but people want to hear how unique something is and weigh the consequences if they don’t take the offer. Authority also plays a huge role in the art of persuasion as well. Having authority gives off the impression that someone is very knowledgeable and credible in the decisions they make. Especially if people see someone as a role model, people can easily be persuaded into following in their footsteps. This video gives a great insight into how to persuade people, which can be a great life skill. Especially in business and sales, you need people to buy in to what you’re saying and choose your business. Implementing these skills can make a hug difference in day-to-day life.
How I persuade others: I don't. That's why I'm watching this video. I didn't persuade myself to not procrastinate so now I need to persuade my teachers to grade me a bit higher than they think they should so I'll pass their lessons.
Students that give their teachers a mint, walk toward the door, turn around and say "Since your my favorite teacher, I'll give you an apple instead." Then switch the mint with the apple saw a 60% higher chance of at least a 5% increase in their grades. Source: Top Scientists
This video is great at showing the science of persuasion. Persuasion is a key factor in making business decisions, and can effect the outcome of a project. I'm sure everyone can remember at least one time they were persuaded to do something, and they can probably remember the outcome. There are some aspects, like reciprocity, that we are mroe in control of, and can determine outcomes for ourselves.
+iAM_TeNKo It's not necessarily a con. If you're shopping for something, and your salesperson is using these skills, you're more likely to get exactly what you're after AND feel good about it, too. It's about making the whole experience successful and satisfying for both buyer and seller.
Science Of Persuasion
1. Reciprocity. We are obliged to give if we have been given something.
2. Scarcity. If it's scarce, we want it more. Use this by highlighting the Benefits, Uniqueness and Possible Loss.
3. Authority. We are more likely to comply with a request if it is coming from a perceived authority/expert.
4. Consistency. We want to be consistent with our past commitments, even if the initial commitment is much smaller.
5. Liking. We like people who are similar, who give us compliments and who co-operate with us.
6. Consensus. If others (especially similar others) are doing it, then we are more likely to do it ourselves.

Not to be a nit picker, but since almost all of this is based on stats, a correction needs to be made. A 400% increase is not a 4X increase. A 400% increase is 5X. A 100% increase is 2X, a 200% increase is 3X, etc. This mistake is quite common, but frustrating to see it on a video viewed by over 3 million people. If 10 people allowed the sign in one neighborhood and 40 people allowed it in the other neighborhood, that is 4 times as many, but it's only a 300% increase. Hopefully this makes sense and someone has already posted about this.
Poor nits....
That's actually really interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Saying it increases by 300% gives you 40, but 300% of 10 is 30.
Can you please derive the formula for me? I’m perplex and intrigued by this math!

After looking at this video not only I learned the factors that influence us to say yes but also about the six shortcuts that guide our decision making. The six shortcuts are: reciprocity, scarcity,authority, consistency, liking and consensus. The shortcuts are used to help us decide the best decision in an ethical way. If you use these types of shortcuts, most of the time someone will say yes or feel persuaded by your request.I really enjoyed how the reciprocity example was shown by explaining how if you invite someone to your birthday party, in return you will expect the invitation for their birthday party as well. What I learned from reciprocity is that you should always give before and make it significant and personalized. That way it will be easier for you to be more persuasive and obtain your goal. Furthermore, the second principle I liked the most is scarcity.Scarcity has to do with the idea that when a resource is scarce more people will want it. The scarcity principle can be used to persuade people by showing them how the resource is unique, and then more people will want it. On the other hand, liking is about saying yes to people you know well and people that you like. As mentioned in the video, you like people that cooperate with you, that are similar to you, and that gives you compliments. To persuade people by liking, you have to look for things you have in common and things that you both like. It is going to be easier to persuade someone if you have things in common. In conclusion, to persuade someone in a moral way, you have to use the six shortcuts to be successful and create changes in the world.
This is entirely social influence.
To retain a strong sense of self, not conflated with the identity of others, withdraw before making decisions, for a day or more, if possible.
In this way, one vastly reduces the error of blaming or crediting another for one's decisions, a much better and more accurate way to live.
Religion is crediting and blaming another, imaginary, but deceptively sanctified.
Another example of reciprocity:
Someone invites you to a tupperware party and tells says you don't have to buy anything. You get there and they serve you a meal. You feel like you owe them something so you buy tupperware. The meal costs far lees than the $100 worth of tupperware you buy.
The lesson..... don't go to tupperware parties.

+Tom S. Or go without your wallet and enjoy the spread ;)

As Haydo B said. Plan ahead. Leave your wallet at home or you cash + Bank/Credit cards at home.. ;) Invite them over to your house next time for food if need be.
Reciprocity seems too much like manipulation
There are a lot of comments here about using these principles unethically. I contend that if your product or service is of genuine value, then using some gentle persuasion is good for everyone. If in the end, the outcome isn't a win-win, then the persuader is a crook! Good negotiations is about everyone coming away feeling good, not being "conned" into something bad. If anything, the education here let's you recognize the con artist for who they are, and head it off at the pass.
Sales people are some of the most easily sold. Even knowing about these methods isn't going to fully protect you from them.
Certainly a sale could be a win for the customer and the seller but who get's to decide? The seller might thinks it's going to be a win-win but the seller is biased. Instead of using these indirect methods why not honestly state your products benefits and short comings. Why not make a reasonable argument based on objective facts? I suspect it's because the marketer would rather make a sale then be genuine.
People are easily led but that doesn't mean you should do it.

This video was extremely thought provoking. It goes through the six, what they call, “shortcuts” to guide decision making and persuasion. These shortcuts are reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. Reciprocity is the obligation to give when you receive. Scarcity is when someone wants something because they can’t have it, or it is hard to have it. Authority is wanting something because a person with authority testifies to how good it is. Consistency is looking for and asking for small commitments that can be made. Liking is the idea that people prefer to say yes to people that they like. Finally, consensus is when people look to the actions of others in order to determine their own actions. I thought all of these shortcuts were extremely interesting. As they said in the beginning of the video, persuasion is a science and something that can be learned. In a business sense, these are just 6 easy ways to persuade someone to like your products. Using these simple shortcuts can really impact your brand and image which in return will help you bring in more customers. This is in no way manipulation. If you tell the truth and only are honest to your audience then persuasion is not a bad thing.

It's amazing how effective the "fear of loss" is on people. I was in a door to door sales job as a kid and my employer told us to make the customer feel as if the product you're selling was going away when/if they said no. It didn't always work but it was pretty cool.
One of the greatest takeaways from this video is the idea of how we as humans have innate biases when making decisions. The six factors in persuasion; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus actually remind me of survival tactics we have developed over time to blend into a group. We are social beings and even when looking into the animal kingdom, we see how it is beneficial to not stand out. In those scenarios, it could very well be the difference between life and death. Although it is not that serious in a situation, such as trying to get a business deal, it is something innate in us so we feel as though we are making the right decision. For example, the factors of consistency, authority, and consensus speak to this. Consistency and authority play into how we trust one another. We believe the people with the right credentials or who have shown loyalty and consistency will make the right decisions for us or will guide us in making them while for consensus, you are letting the decisions or thoughts of others guide your own. You are following the group so as not to stick out. As humans we have flaws that allow for these shortcuts in persuasion.
😂 You are overthinking this with all that nonsense.
Offering a shortcut for people over the fear of making an unwise decision.
Skipping past a selfish agenda mindset to a brotherly love mindset.
Were busy and can't be sold if we're looking for something better due to lack of confidence.
The other one is self explanatory.
Oh and consistency and consensus are about tapping into the thought process to get that emotion or confidence. It's like a bad habit if it makes you feel good you do it, if you have a thought process that keeps you mindful of the negatives playing out you create active opposition.
"Play into": influence. Factors that influence, or modify biases, in this case.
"tapping into":
Becoming aware of, in the case of thought processes.
the main rule of persuasion : be genuine and open to rejections.
Well, I think you just forgot the major rule of persuasion and the key which is confidence.
Sam oh, okay, thanks.
Does that mean that the one you are persuading should know that you are genuine and open to rejection?

I listened to 'The Marketing Book Podcast: "Influence" by Robert Cialdini' and stopped here.

Thanks for all, Professor C.
The key points from this video are directly applicable to our course goals this semester. We can use the tools from this video to treat leadership as a process and focus on the situation at hand. By following the reciprocity shortcut, we can understand that people are more likely to give back to others when they receive something. As a leader, if you need assistance, you should give before you ask for a favor. By following the scarcity shortcut, we can see the value in exclusivity. People are more likely to buy if it is scarce. By following the authority shortcut, we can understand how influential status can be. As a leader, to build trust among coworkers or colleagues, one can show what they bring to the table. There is a difference between being boastful and being demonstrative. Consistency is another shortcut directly applicable to leadership. By delegating smaller tasks to start, in the future one is able to delegate larger tasks and can trust the job will get done. Liking is an important shortcut in leadership. A leader can try to find common ground with others so that they can get off on the right foot. Consensus was the last shortcut used. Getting multiple people on board will eventually help all others get on board.
Thanks for the video. It's a great snapshot. I loved Dr. Cialdini's book: Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. You will be shocked to find out how much we are unknowingly manipulated every day. And you'll be grateful to receive tools from Dr. Cialdini that show you how to defend yourself from them. It's an easy and compelling read.
Science of persuasion it's a great short video, and all the people who aspire to be a leader or that already are leaders need to watch and analyze it deeply. These six shortcuts explained in the video are key psychological tips to improve your leading and selling skills. The first one is reciprocity, which as you may know, it´s the social obligation to respond by giving others what they have given you in the past, to kind of balance the situation, if you help me, I help you. Scarcity talks about these limited things that exist in the world and because of the limited amount, it´s more exclusive, so it´s more expensive, just because they are not unlimited. Authority refers to the psychology behind uniforms, batches, titles, etc. When you see a uniform it´s more likely that you trust this person. Consistency can be explained with an example, like when you vote for a candidate of the party you support, even though you don´t even know him/her, just because you want to be consistent with your political decisions. Liking is one the easiest ways to persuade people, if you find things in common with someone it´s most likely that you are going to get along better with him/her. Finally, the consensus is when you see that similar people to you are doing something, and you do it because they are similar to you, so you trust them.
When watching Science of Persuasion, I noticed that the video uses a lot of psychology techniques taught to me from my time at college. For example the consistency commitment is the same principle as the foot-in-the-door principle where people are more likely to say yes to a bigger favor if you start small. One foot in the door leads to an opportunity to be listened to later allowing successes in other favors to be more likely. Same thing with the scarcity principle, people like to feel as though that what they have is important or sought after. Having something seem scarce makes whatever you are selling, buying or doing seem more interesting. The Science of Persuasion truly does have some credibility in hosting real-world scientific techniques and it is proven to work in more than just the business world.
That was Cialdini, decades ago.
I love how he emphasizes using them ETHICALLY as if they won't work otherwise.
+George Christiansen Nah. They know. Those gangsters probably enact it them selves and/or have sicko stories. But they also know the bright side of the moon.

This video was very interesting because it went into a deep explanation of how to persuade people into saying yes. So, the video dove deeper into the explanation right from the start and gave 6 shortcuts in regards to affecting human behavior. The 6 shortcuts are: Reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. Employing these 6 shortcuts could significantly increase the chances for someone to say yes to a certain request. Reciprocity is simply the obligation to give something after you receive something. Scarcity can be defined as people wanting more of something when there is less of it. Authority explains that the people will follow credible knowledgeable experts. Consistency is the process of looking for and asking for commitments that can be made. Liking proposes three different factors: 1. People who are similar to us. 2. People who pay us compliments. And lastly, 3. People who cooperate with us. Lastly, consensus is defined as when people will look to the actions of others to determine their own. These 6 steps will help you not only understand people better, but also make it an easier pathway to persuading people to say yes to certain requests.
Did you write this comment as part of a class assignment?
@@influenceatwork yeah!
There is good information in this video about persuasion. These six principles seem to be very effective and useful to anyone who is pursuing a business career. The principle of reciprocity caught my attention with the example of how the number of mints had a very strong positive relationship to the size of the tip a waiter/waitress received. This can then be applied to other respects of business too. If you are a salesman and go to a dinner with a possibly customer and gifting them a bottle of wine can go a long way. Outside of business this is a great habit to practice anyways. Giving to friends/hosts is something that should always be done. However, it should be noted that the gift should not be given with the pure intent of receiving something in return. This video does not talk about the moral side of giving just to receive but I think that the giving should be done out of good will and there should be satisfaction in the feeling of giving and making someone happy.
This video explained the benefits of persuasion from a science perspective. I have never heard of some of these applications before but they all make sense. If a friend buys something I will follow through and buy too. I have been at stores where if the employee has the clothes on that they are selling it is easier to sell. I work in a retail store and have used these tactics without even noticing. We will mention quantity if the item is low in stock but not if there are lots of the same item made. Scarcity improves the chances someone will buy something on the spot.
I do not think that persuasion is the same as manipulation. This is because it is not what you say but how you present it. Finding a common interest with someone is always a friend approach no matter what you are trying to accomplish. If you are in the same class as someone but mention you know one of their mutual friends or are from the same state, then you have a higher chance of being friends which can lead to a multitude of opportunities. In the scarcity tactic for retail, Everything is the same about the item being sold or idea. The only difference is the features being highlighted.
I mostly watched this to be able to better identify the methods of persuasion for conscious resistance. I prefer to make up my own mind.
I love how different people went through the list. It kept me interested. Talk about a form of persuasion.
The Science of Persuasion is an interesting video because it shows how being persuasive isn’t something you’re born with but learn over the course of your life. One of the fascinating parts of the video was Reciprocity. The idea that both parties need to mutually benefit is so important when it comes to trying to persuade someone. This past summer, while I was interning as a cold caller for a Cybersecurity company, I found that relating to others and acknowledging and being respectful to them made your chances of getting them to a meeting more likely. I love the examples they gave about the waiter and the idea of “being unexpected and personal.” I think authority is another important aspect of being persuasive. Not only do people follow credible, knowledgeable experts, but they also follow individuals who are confident in their selves. Having a backbone when presenting an argument goes far when trying to be persuasive. Showing others how passionate they are about something increases your chances of being persuasive. Other parts of the video I enjoyed were the Concorde and the likeability examples. The ability to communicate your thoughts and ideas is an essential skill to have in any profession you pursue.
6 Shortcuts to persuade someone
1) Reciprocity - 호혜
2) Scarcity _ 결핍, 부족
3) Authority _ 권한
4) Consistency - 일관성
5) Liking - 호감
6) Consensus - 동의, 공감
I like that!
I was never one for persuasion. I always feel like people are trying to trick me, always trying to make it look like they have my best interest, when actually they're the one profiting from the idea/activity/whatever. That was mostly when I was a kid and a teenagers, but then, as I grew older, my "feeling" of it became a solid certainty!
Yeah i feel u on that one...
A lot of persuasion is for a win-win. For example, I have a product that I have been persuading people to buy for over 10 years. The reason I am still doing that with the same product is because the people who bought it gained more than what it cost them. They won and I won.
Things like dealing with the government is often a win-lose situation. You have to do something because the government mandates it and it is not in your interests to do it, yet the government tries to persuade the public it is good and just - even when it clearly is not good or just for most people.
So you need to be selective and realise that just because someone it trying to persuade you, it doesn't mean they are trying to trick you, even when they are also profiting from it.
Yes, we are. But don't wait! Please send $135,317 NOW, to PO box 3385.
How can i persuade you that i am honest?
Feelings becoming solid certainties. You have arrived at delusion, at conspiracy theory, at dogmatic conservatism.
Try instead to think critically about everything, ESPECIALLY your own beliefs and overgeneralizations.
@@briseboy You[re preaching to the Pope... I always think critically about everything. Of course small comments on UA-cam reflect your momentary feelings about some issues, and you're fucising on some particular events. I can see how you can interpret it as delusion and paranoia, conspiracy theories and etc. But thatt's not the case. If you need to "persuade" someone, you´re trying to force some idea onto that person. You can do that by trying to convince someone with arguments, or, it is a meaning of the word nowadays, induce someone to beileve something. The way I see it, persuasion has at least a slight part od "force". I don´t see it as simple convincing someone with arguments. It is true though, that a lot of people need to be persuaded, because they are stupid, and an example of that are social laws. It is persuasion, because without them, a lot of people would act as animals, driven by instincts (weel it already is, for a great parte os people, specially criminals, but not only them). the distance in terms of intelligence and "I.Q." also matters. But you see many people who are very capacitated in terms of science, for example, but have sme twisted beliefs. A lot of terrorists and even nation leader are very intelligent people, but their emotions are what´s driving them. We can see hoe people in the Project Manhattan were all inteliigent. And no one in the position of Truman can be really "dumb". So it´s someonewhat hard to tell apart intelligence and emotional beliefs. Anyway, like I said, persuasion sound to me as trying to forcefully change someone´s beliefs, intead o rationally explaining why someone´s beliefs are innacurate or surreal. But we live in a society where everyone "believes" in thing that cannot be proven (i.e. all religions). Anyway... I don´t overgeneralize, not as a principle. Everyone may say phrasees with overgeneralization, mostly to keep it brief in informal conversations (os internet comments), obviouly the world is to omple to really generalize most things. But, intead os "persuade", why not just "show" the evidence of something? Or logically crae arguments that don´t appeal to emotions, or have a " threat" tone to it?
The video depicts aspects of persuasion that I would not have previously considered. Some of the “short cuts,” or actions that can be taken to persuade, may be done subconsciously. Authority seems the most intuitive when thinking about leadership and persuasion. People innately place trust in others daily based on their titles, degrees, or certifications because they are assumed to be knowledgeable and credible. Leaders tend to have qualifications like degrees which allows them to have this authority and foster more effective relationships. Reciprocity is another interesting part of persuasion. The idea itself, feeling obligated to give when you have received, makes sense, but I had not thought about it in terms of persuasion. Individuals using this aspect of persuasion in business by giving even something small such as a discount or a special can expect a greater likelihood of generosity shown by the customer in return. Distinguishing between persuasion and manipulation also seems appropriate. Manipulation involves influencing someone with a malicious intent while persuasion is influencing someone for the better. Persuasion is mutually beneficial while manipulation typically benefits only one party. In business, persuasion can be used for both parties to get the best out of an interaction.

I enjoyed this video on the six principles of persuasion and how they make you the most effective possible version of yourself. The reason why I enjoyed this video is because of how easy these six principles are to incorporate into your everyday life. For instance, we use reciprocity by doing something for someone else in hopes to get something in return for our actions. I can relate to this because everything you do needs to be personalized and unexpected to separate yourself from others. The second principle, scarcity, is the act of wanting something more than it is available to have. As a result of scarcity, it’s important to show the benefits, tell what’s unique, and describe what they stand to lose to be able to successfully persuade someone in a direction. Persuasion also stems around knowledge and confidence as people will often take sides with the smartest and most confident person in the room regardless of what they might be saying. One of the best principles here is consistency. This is one of the best because consistency shows how something will work after repeated trials of getting the same or better results. If something is consistent, that means that people can rely on it and will often be persuaded to go in that direction. Another way to persuade someone is to get them to like you as they will trust you solely on the fact that they like who you are. Lastly is consensus, that people will look to the actions of others to determine their own. Consensus is an interesting principle of persuasion because it can be based solely on reputation and what other people do instead of following what your interests are.

Thanks for sharing these principles! Guess a thin line between using these ethically and manipulation, but probably a choice we have to make individually. Superb animation !!
The video discusses the principles of persuasion; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking and consensus. Reciprocity is an obligation to give when you receive, the example given was about restaurants and if they give you something, it affects the tip you leave. This reminded me of stores that give you a punch card where you purchase a certain number of items then get a discount after the fifth or so. Scarcity is when people want more of those things there are less of. This made me think of our current situation, as to how certain things at store are now limited to customers because of there being a limited amount of resources. Authority is the idea that people will follow credible knowledgeable experts. The example mentioned was the physical therapists patients are more reliable on their therapist due to their display of medical diplomas, which made me reflect on my experience in physical therapy. Consistency is looking for and asking for small initial commitments that can be made, this made me think of working out and an individual’s weight loss journey because the key factor is consistency. Liking is that people prefer to say yes to those they like, which I found very true and present in my life. Consensus is the last principle, which consists of people looking to the actions of others to determine their own. This made me think of class debates on how some individuals wait until they see others speak about something in order to determine what they will say.
Very informative! I am curious to know the sample size behind these statistics. They seem way too specific to be very large. I'm not an expert but I would like to get some more detail behind the studies before considering them conclusive. Are these one-off's or have the results been repeated?
The two shortcuts to persuasion that caught my eye the most are persuasion and authority. These two made me realize that I follow them in my own life and they are able to persuade me. I would never realize this, but if a waiter gave me a mint and then came back to tell me that I was nice so I got another mint, I would definitely tip them more.
In this video the science of persuasion is real and has a very big impact in everyday life. We do feel obligated to give if we have been given something. The act of kindness also goes along with this act. When someone is kind to you we normally want to reciprocate that and pass it on. I think the science of persuasion also entails a lot of psychology in it. The psychology being when something is done to you and you receive something, you are obligates to want to give that same feeling back to someone.

Is it just me, or does he sound like wheatly from portal 2?
Oh no... is he going to put us in a test chamber too?
This is very interesting. It is very clever to increase approval by employing science as a validator for the program. This also gives the impression that it is new and cutting edge. Very clever. However, these techniques were employed by Marcus Tullius Cicero over two thousand years ago. Not only his letters reflect these techniques but two of his works, On the Orator (De Oratore) and Orator also do. Both of these emphasize the importance of personalizing a message, connecting with an audience, finding a way to enter the inner workings of the person addressed. BUT this is done within heavy doses of moral philosophy which Cicero realized was necessary for proper use of such persuasive powers- i.e. the speaker had obligations to employ powers of persuasion for the good of society. This aspect is missing from this presentation.

hi
influenceatwork s
When it comes to persuasion as a whole, it is about how you cater towards the person you want to persuade. I found this video to be quite useful and informative, as each tactic teaches how simply one can become more convincing. We are constantly introduced to scenarios where we see one of these tactics being used. Whether they are used purposely or not, they are almost always as effective as the video explains. From reciprocity to consensus, we are more comfortable making decisions when we know that someone else not involved has been in the same scenario or setting. These tactics are extremely helpful in the workplace, and especially in leadership. If a manager wants to succeed at getting their subordinates to do certain tasks, or work differently, they should certainly rely on at least some of these tactics when doing so. Instead of directly asking someone to do something, we are always better off using reasoning than just ordering someone around.
This is super interesting. Thanks for the video! :D

Me too
The six different ways that help yourself or others make decisions are; reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. The video talks about the relationship between giving and receiving. Moreover, the example they have is gift giving, as a waiter if you were to give something as simple as a mint to the people who you were serving you will see an increase in the tip you give. To me, the most important principle when getting others to say yes was authority. If you show authority on a topic that you know a lot about you are more likely to get others to listen to you as well as agree with you. I agree with this principle. To me not only does being in authority already give you some credibility, if you have someone around you to give you a little bit of praise that amount of credibility you have is even greater. The sway you have over others' decisions, right or wrong if you show that you have authority can be a good and bad thing.

Good explanation. Now here are tips how to protect yourself if people are using these against you:
Reciprocity - I didn't tell you to give me anything, why should I tip?
Scarcity - I didn't really needs this offer at the moment, even though I might want it later.
Authority - Yes they might be expert, but not everything they say will always be appropriate.
Consistency - Too much is enough.
Liking - I can't resist this. This is the fairest persuasion.
Consensus - Do not Join the hype. Else, you like doing it without a hype.
Persuasion is just a nicer word for manipulating people.
Dude, if you have a girlfriend/wife you had to persuade her on wanting to be with you. Does that mean your intentions were bad? It's just simply leading a person to make a good decision. It depends on whether you want to improve a persons situation, or manipulating them to do something that will not benefit them
It's about intention, if your intention was 'aggressive' then it's manipulation. if your intentions were kindly then it's influence. or something like that. :)
@@socadas is the same, you have to be with someone that makes a great impact in your life. You don't have to manipulate or persuate anyone. Just do your thing, try to achive your dreams and everything will come.
He brings up a good point. Sometimes, in business, the line between _rhetoric_ and _manipulation_ can be very thin indeed.
Think salary negotiations and big business deals. Each side is trying their absolute best to convince/manipulate the other party. If one person knows how to negotiate, they will most likely win the decision most of the time.
But the people accepting these deals are sometimes unaware of the small psychological tricks like anchoring.
@@leeannecook986 Well you can have either a good or bad influence on somebody... it all about the intentions your seeking...influence it self is a nothing more than a compelling force capable of producing effects on the actions, behavior, opinions, etc.of another person or of others:

This video does a great job of providing six shortcuts that can aid someone in the art of persuasion. Out of the six methods provided, Authority stuck out to me as the most effective vehicle for achieving success through persuasion. This shortcut of authority is introduced using the idea that people will follow the knowledge of credible experts. For example, if you are looking for a pediatrician and you go into the office to discover many awards and accolades on the wall, you will be inclined to believe that this pediatrician is the real deal and has the authority to back it up. Having a person introduce you as an expert in your field does the trick as well. Establishing the credibility that you are both knowledgeable and an expert will influence those interested in buying into your business or investing in your company. This video highlights the idea that this authority is both ethical and cost less. It doesn't cost a cent to speak highly of a co-worker to set them up for an opportunity and there is nothing wrong with promoting your company or a person by advertising their achievements. This method of persuasion is an organic driver of success for a person or the business in its entirety.
the scarcity study is not relyable, people could have never heard of the flight and wanted it because they heard of it, not necesary because it was scarce. (i dont know how to spell stuff in english
DeathlyDiJ lets just assume your wrong
DeathlyDiJ Under which rock were they? not hearing of Concord? no it's perfectly right what was said ok news channels raised awareness people realised they was ONLY A LIMITED TIME to use this service, as in marketing with discounts or special offers
Jason Sparks if i make a product and never make any advertisement for it. i'll only sell 1 per month.
then i advertise that it is the last month you can buy it. and i will sell 20 in that month.
so you/the vid would say that because of that it sold 20 times more.
but if i just made an advertisement saying that this product existed, i would sell 15.
so the last month trick excelly only made it sale 33% more, not 1900%
DeathlyDiJ One of the most insulting examples of convincing people to buy something before its too late is the "limited" time release of certain Disney movies to video before they're locked away in their vault.
DeathlyDiJ The specific study cited in this video DID seem a bit funky to me as well, but I'm pretty sure there have been many other more reliable studies supporting this claim.

This video eloquently described the sciences of persuasions. In reciprocity. we are keen to give if we have been given something. In scarcity, our minds are naturally wired to want something more, if a ton are not available. In authority, we are likely to obliged with a request if it is coming from an expert we respect. With consistency, we want to stand by the commitments we make, even if the initial commitment is much smaller. Liking, we like people who are similar to us, and people we can relate to. Consensus, if people around us are doing something , then we are more likely to engage and do it ourselves.
People have been doing research on this for more than 60 years...

Given the various ways to persuade others to appeal to their desires, I found this topic in the video to be quite interesting. The film emphasizes the most important "shortcuts," including reciprocity, authority, scarcity, consistency, and others. Finally, the movie emphasizes that we may effectively communicate with individuals directly and yet influence them simply by speaking. Persuasion may appear tough at times, but it may also be done without the person's knowledge, making it much more fun. Today, persuasion is a way of life for everyone. Persuasion is used by several well-known firms and individuals. Overall, it's important to note that many well-known organizations continue to fulfill little modifications in order to continue having an impact or influence on others.
PROOF THAT PEOPLE ARE SHEEP.
CERTAINLY. I SAY SHEEP SIMPLY BECAUSE THE ELITE OPERATE AS THE SMART MONKEYS. AND THE REST OF HUMANITY FOR THE MOST PART ARE THE SHEEP. BECAUSE THEY HAVE FOUND SCIENTIFIC METHODS TO MANIPULATE THOSE HARD WIRED EVOLUTIONARY INSTINCTS VIA PROPAGANDA AND VIOLENT CONTROL.
+ALBERT EINSTEIN are you really albert einstein
I was thinking that as well
+ALBERT EINSTEIN If you call this a proof - it's in my opinion just a collection of claims. He never gives us information, where we can figure out if it's true what he tells.
Kristian Heitkamp YEAH BUT YOU CAN SAY BAAH, THUS SHEEP YOU ARE.
I love these kinds of doodle videos, they can be so enlightening in illustrating the concept in a very universal way. This video in particular was extremely helpful in explaining the different forms of persuasion and where they originate from. The concept of persuasion has been investigated by many. Specifically psychologists who get down to the details of how a human brain is fabricated and what drives certain actions. I particularly liked the example of the reusable towel towards the end, where a simple addition of a word in a statement creates a completely different reaction to it and thus a different practice. This can be the continuation of the video or simply another layer added to it as to how humans respond to vocabulary, the impact words and sentence composition can have on human behavior and why it is that it works that way. The biggest takeaway from this video is that it comes to the littlest things that influence action and can persuade an individual to act in your favor, a simple mint, removal of something on the market, a quick mention of credentials, a simple sticker on a window, compliments, and change of a word. Anything that falls into these 6 shortcuts can have an interesting effect.
Why does this feel lika a school assignment
O lawdy. I'm on that part of youtube that's going to drain all of my time away again...
MrOmeMan The science of the time sink.
No
everyone who stumbled across this video had to come across some sort of philosophy or some desire for this type of knowledge for their own personal interest
Delirious
Actually I'm doing an assignment on pitching to investors and I'm really behind on it
Persuasion is a science and an ability that some are better at than others. Through this video we are guided through a shortcut that will help us develop this skill of persuasion. The first is reciprocity, which involves the obligation to give when you receive. This is an interesting fact because when you receive something like a freebie or a better service, you are more likely to give back in appreciation. The second is scarcity, you can clearly convince someone faster by pointing out unique features, particularly if they are peculiar or scarce. Authority is also essential when making an influence attempt. You impose authority by introducing yourself as a credible and trustworthy individual, confidence is key with this aspect of persuasion. The next is consistency, which I completely agree with because it demonstrates and creates precedent. The fifth principle is liking and the sixth is consensus. Reading through these principles of persuasion was truly beneficial and I look forward to implementing them in the future when I must persuade or convince someone. These are definitely factors to take into consideration since we are constantly engaging in circumstances where we have to persuade, that be in our personal and professional lives.

Magician12345 Using this stuff unethically is simply mostly about hidding information. BUT not to an irrational conspiracy extent. For example, for consistency principle, all you have to do is pretend that something is worth less than what it really is if you want to sell something... or if you have to deal with a boss and you are actually behind in some project while he's hovering over you demanding something and you state that it's close to finishing when you need to pull allnighters to get it done. Also, dumb chicks who get off on spontaneity,... all you have to do is exaggerate every aspect of yourself related to entertaining things and then when you've got nothing to lose (after the sex, etc ) then tell her your basic profile that does sound impressive.... her being dumb will likely lead to not feeling as painful about the lie as otherwise.
Hehehehehe!! you funny!
Great video. It reminded me of the times I decided to buy. Very True
Learning how to persuade fits with the class goals because as a leader, it is important to encourage employees to be hardworking and get the job done. They need to persuade everyone that they have everything under control and that following them is the best way. A leader also needs to come up with ideas that will persuade consumers to choose their service or product. Leadership as a concept is more of a process rather than a position. This is because as a leader you influence your followers to do what you choose, so as a leader it is crucial to take all the necessary steps to complete the task with integrity. There are 6 major factors that contribute to persuasion. First, is reciprocity which refers to after you have done someone a favor, they now owe you one in return. Someone who knows they owe you a favor will be easier to persuade because it is only fair. The second shortcut to persuasion is scarcity, which is when someone wants more of something they have less of. Someone is more likely to give into something when it is at a scarce supply because they don’t want to miss the opportunity. Next, authority is something that influences persuasion. People with authority have power and are credible knowledgeable experts. This helps them have a strong sense of persuasion because people trust them. Consistency helps with persuasion because it validates that the person is genuine which means they probably have good intentions. The next factor is liking. If someone is very much liked and respected, people will want to follow them which makes the followers easy to persuade. Lastly, consensus can influence persuasion because people will look at others to determine their own. If the majority of people are doing a certain thing, you will most likely be persuaded to join along as well. Overall, there are many principles for leaders to use when using persuasion.
OK so now i am ready for wall-street stock market , like Jordan Belfort
Awesome video. Thanks! These approaches, when used ethically, are so helpful and powerful in building connection, too.
The video discusses the different ways in which we can persuade other people by appealing to their wants or their human capacity. The principles of reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus were each given as persuasion tactics. Using these tactics we are able to effectively communicate with people while also persuading them to do what it is we wish. This video was particularly interesting because I was able to notice these persuasion techniques from experiences in my everyday life. For example, I work at a restaurant as a bartender off campus, and during my shift, I have the ability to "give away" at my discretion. I usually pick new customers who don't know me because that was it appears as more of a surprise. I will usually wait until starting a conversation with the customers, and then surprising them with the "hey, by the way, that last drink is on me." More times than not the customer is surprised and grateful, and they reciprocate me through a higher tip as a result. By doing this, it also displays a kind of authority that I have if I am capable of giving things out for free. This is another principle from the video that affects persuasion and something that I use in my work. Finally, liking is another persuasive technique I use in my actions to try and persuade a better tip through a better experience. By applying similarities, compliments, and cooperation I am able to enhance the customer experience and hopefully improve my tip.
For example, I'am pretty sure 90% of people clicked on this video because it has "Science" in the title.
I clicked bc i wanted to learn how to persuade a Venture Capitalist to give me $500,000 for my business
Then i must be one of the 10%, I clicked because of it having 8,6 million views.

Great video! I messed with my audio setting for like 5 minutes because I thought there was no audio.
This is one of the more eye-opening videos that I've seen in a long time. While watching the eleven minute clip, I began to recall moments in my past (business related and not) where I have either been easily persuaded into doing something or had persuaded someone else into doing something for me. While I cannot necessarily speak for the person(s) who had bore an influence on me, I can speak for myself when I say that while I do not recall any previous recollection of any explicit mention of these aforementioned principles, I have most certainly unintentionally applied them when attempting to persuade my friends into doing something for me. From you-owe-me-one's (reciprocity) to miniscule, foot in the door methods (consistency) to limited-time offers (scarcity). I find it very interesting how these principles truly must be universal, given the fact that I can vividly see and play out moments of my life where I have both unknowingly used and fallen victim to these tactics of persuasion. Out of the entire list of six, there is one that I found the most fascinating and stood out to me the most: scarcity. Using the example of the London to New York City concord flights, I find it almost too hard to believe that sales skyrocketed...the very next day. The fact that nothing had really changed except for the fact that there were now less opportunities to fly, had surprisingly caused that much of an increase in competition, truly does amaze me.
I love how your voice changes when you say consistency lol.
There is no occasion when the narrator says "consistency lol." Hearing voices may be a sign of schizophrenia or other serious defect in sensory perception of reality
@@briseboy you troll. i added lol.
The kinds of restaurants that care about customer service enough to consider the benefits of giving customers mints with the check are probably the same restaurants that hire waiters of a higher standard.
It is commonly known that leadership is most dependent upon the ability to persuade others. This short clip perfectly illustrates the 6 ways that a leader can persuade others to follow them. Reciprocity is effective in that we as humans naturally feel obligated to give back if we are given something by another person. Scarcity is effective in that if something is scarce, we naturally are more attracted to it. With regard to Authority, people are more likely to agree or listen to someone who is in a position of higher power or is considered an “expert” in a particular field/area. Consistency in itself is very effective especially for people who consistently honor commitments regardless of how big or small they are. In terms of Liking, we as human beings are naturally drawn to people that we get along with and especially those that give us compliments and positive interactions. The final method/principle is Consensus and it is particularly effective when people are uncertain as they look to the actions/behaviors of others to determine what they will do. All of these principles are different from one another in their own respect however, if a leader is able to combine and implement all of these principles in their own managerial tactics, they will be able to persuade others to follow them.
The Science of Persuasion
Directions: Read the questions carefully and answer them as you watch the youtube video below.
Science Of Persuasion
1. What are the 6 Shortcuts or principles from the video?
a. Reciprocity
b. Scarcity
c. Authority
d. Consistency
e. Liking
f. Consensus
2. What example did they use about the principle of Reciprocity?
If a friend invites you to a party, then you are more likely to invite them to a future party that you are having, because you feel like you owe them.
3. Define the principle scarcity.
People want more of the things that there are less of.
4. The video says, “It’s not enough to simply tell people the benefits of what they’ll gain if they choose your product”. What else do you need to provide your audience with?
You need to provide what is unique about your product, and what they stand to lose if they fail to get your product.
5. Summarize the principle of Authority in 3 to 4 sentences.
The principle of authority is that people are more likely to buy from you if they think that you know everything about the product you are buying. If they think that you are an expert, then they are more likely to do what you say. If someone thinks you know a ton about windows and you are always right about them, and then you tell them to buy Feldco windows, you are more likely to buy Feldco.
6. What are the 3 important factors in the principle of Liking?
a. We like people who are similar to us.
b. We like people who pay us compliments.
c. We like people who cooperate with us.
7. Compare the first and second group in the principle of Liking. Why was the second group so much more successful?
If you complement a person, they will like you and enjoy being around you, be cause they think you are a good person and will be nice. If you are just similar, you still don’t know if you can like this person, because they haven’t done anything to earn it yet. If you seem similar and then you are complimented, Liking will work best.
8. All of the principles have great points. But if you were to rank the principles from the most important to the least important, what order would you put them in? Why?
1. Scarcity: When people know that something is running out, they feel it’s their only chance to get/use it, and buy it right away so it won’t run out to fast
2. Liking: I have seen the effects of this principle. When someone gets along with you, it is way easier to get them to buy what you want them to, because you’re friends now.
3. Authority and Reciprocity: I consider these two equal. Both are very affective. Reciprocity: When someone does you a favor, you automatically feel urged to do something nice back to them. Authority: If you know more about what you are selling than your customer, then they look to you for guidance. If someone thinks you are a genius, or just a person who is over you, then they look up to you and are more likely to follow you.
4. Consensus: This seems like it would work very well. The increase was extremely high, and it was very effective, and somewhat clever and sneaky to make people do things when they don’t even realize it.
5. All of the points where very good, including consistency. This is at the bottom because I don’t think it would always work. It is still a good point, and is smart to start to small, and than get bigger a little at a time.
sorry i didnt mean to post this
Great information, glad we don't tip here in New Zealand lol
Why are you glad?
Same here in Europe. Mindboggling how you can demand that customers pay your employees wages ..
Summer TC it's not mandatory, just frowned upon for not doing it in some occasions because servers usually take their time to make sure you have a good time and make you comfortable when their job is only to bring and take your trays. It'd be rude not to
Damian lafrance If quality of service is important for the company's business then they should invest in better paid staff to achieve that.

These strategies for persuasion are ones which I have heard of and spoken of with peers before. I have always said that the key to having any type of success in the world, whether it be in business or really any aspect of life, is to be able to appeal to people's humanity. When I say this I essentially mean to engage in this type of "scientifically" persuasive behavior. Human interaction is an incredibly important part of being able to find success in business. As mentioned in the video, credentials, commonalities, and general trust building all contribute to your ability to interact with others in a positive and beneficial manner. Creating a demand through persuasive techniques, such as limitations or cancellations like in the example of British Airways is of course an effective way to benefit your business by using general principles of supply and demand to your advantage. However, I think the greatest takeaway from this video is finding applications for human persuasion which help to build future relationships. Acting in a manner which is persuasive, but ethical, such as appealing to one's own humanity by establishing a personal and more specific connection with them is a technique which can benefit both parties. The customer feels well taken care of, and the business prospers. This means of positive human engagement can be lucrative and can easily be achieved in a wholly moral fashion. This is an incredibly important business concept to be aware of. Learning to appeal to people, and connect with them in a way which leaves them with a positive or benefited mindset, can make all the difference in your own success.
A 400% increase does not mean that the new value is 4x as high as the old value. The new value is 400% higher than the old value, so the new value is 400% (the increase) + 100% (the old value) = 500% of the old value, i.e. 5x as high.
No one would make the mistake of thinking that a 100% increase resulted in a new value which was 1x as high as the old value.
Magnus Anthun Good catch. Lots of people make this common mistake. Which is why being precise with your words does matter.
***** I think you misunderstood what I meant when I wrote that. The 400% increase is added to the already present 100% (old value), which results in a new value that is 500% of (I repeat: of) the old value, i.e. 5x as high. I added the 100% in order to help those who aren't good with maths to understand why a 400% increase is 5x as high as the old value. Another example could be that a 25% increase is 100% (old value) + 25% (increase/change) = 125% (new value) of the old value, so the new value is 1.25x higher than the old value. An example of a decrease could be a 40% decrease, which is 100% (old value) - 40% (decrease/change) = 60% (new value) of the old value, so the new value is 0.6x as high as the old value.
We're in agreement, you simply misunderstood my comment. Had I written that the old value increased by 400% and then by 100% (or vice versa) then the new value would be 1000% of the old value, i.e. 10x as high, but I explicitly stated what each value was, again in order to make it easier to understand for those who aren't good with maths.
what if you give like 10 mints?

This video was really interesting to learn from and gave great insight into the art of persuasion. The video named 6 shortcuts to guide decision making which included reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, and consensus. By using these in an ethical matter, someone can be persuaded by your requests. The shortcut that I found interesting was scarcity, because it makes sense when persuading someone that they want more of things that are scarce. When persuading someone about a proposition, it is not enough to show the benefits of what they want, but people want to hear how unique something is and weigh the consequences if they don’t take the offer. Authority also plays a huge role in the art of persuasion as well. Having authority gives off the impression that someone is very knowledgeable and credible in the decisions they make. Especially if people see someone as a role model, people can easily be persuaded into following in their footsteps. This video gives a great insight into how to persuade people, which can be a great life skill. Especially in business and sales, you need people to buy in to what you’re saying and choose your business. Implementing these skills can make a hug difference in day-to-day life.

How I persuade others: I don't. That's why I'm watching this video. I didn't persuade myself to not procrastinate so now I need to persuade my teachers to grade me a bit higher than they think they should so I'll pass their lessons.
Give them a mint before the tests, or the lessons.
or you could compliment them on about the mint you just gave them. "i'am such a great guy,don't you think"?
Students that give their teachers a mint, walk toward the door, turn around and say "Since your my favorite teacher, I'll give you an apple instead." Then switch the mint with the apple saw a 60% higher chance of at least a 5% increase in their grades.

Author Robert Cialdini said it all first in his book The Power of Influence circa 1993.
This video is great at showing the science of persuasion. Persuasion is a key factor in making business decisions, and can effect the outcome of a project. I'm sure everyone can remember at least one time they were persuaded to do something, and they can probably remember the outcome. There are some aspects, like reciprocity, that we are mroe in control of, and can determine outcomes for ourselves.
6.5 million people are now educated on how to be con artists, thanks.
+iAM_TeNKo It's not necessarily a con. If you're shopping for something, and your salesperson is using these skills, you're more likely to get exactly what you're after AND feel good about it, too. It's about making the whole experience successful and satisfying for both buyer and seller.
T Phillips Its just a prank bro
But you can actually be aware of it now, so 6.5m people are more able to defend themselves ;)
