According to Blair Warren, people will do anything for those who encourage their dreams, justify their failures, allay their fears, confirm their suspicions and help them throw rocks at their enemies.
Warren became famous as the “one-sentence persuasion” guy, and the quote above is itself one sentence. Here it is as a checklist:
People will do anything for those who:
- Encourage their dreams
- Justify their failures
- Allay their fears
- Confirm their suspicions and
- Help them throw rocks at their enemies
Go audit your marketing messages, products and services today against that checklist.
If you score on all five, your followers will do ANYTHING for you.
