Article on crocodile/reactive brain thinking to increase your business - GoFuckYourself.com

Modern humans for the most part are nothing but slightly evolved cave people and you can have great success in relationships and business if you simply spend a few moments understanding the brain and how it works.

I agree with much of this article but strongly disagree on the recommendation about closing the deal. If someone is trying to sell to me or close a deal and says the following I would kick that fuck out of my office and tell them to suck my fucking dick if they want my business: ?We?ve got a lot of new business coming in, so I want to be sure that I can get you in. If you think there?s a fit here, let me know by Friday of next week because that?s when we?ll have our project schedule complete for the next few months.?

I ask for the sale am very direct about it. I tell them "I am excited to move forward with my ideas for your company however I rarely take on new customers and if they are going to do business with me that now is the opportune moment before I move on to another client. I say thinking about it for a day or two is fine as that is what some of my clients do but I would like your answer by Tuesday. Is that fair?"

This post reminded me of Oren Klaff's book Pitch Anything.

Also the whole Alpha/Beta thing works when getting pulled over by police. I NEVER call them "sir" or "officer" or anything. Just talk to them like you are a fellow cop or that you know them. Do not disrespect them but do not let them feel like you see them as an authority figure. I never have my licence and registration ready for the cop. NEVER. Make them ask for it.
