On a happy year 2009 note, I intend to start blogging. My name is Ramanujam and my hobbies are reading books, watching cricket and counselling people. I read lots of non-fiction books with books on leadership, management, self-help being the dominant ones. I like to read thrillers - Colin Forbes, Jeff Archer and David Baldacci being few of the favorites.
 Starting this year I plan to blog and share the knowledge I have been picking reading many of the non-fiction books. As a start here goes my gist on Persuasion ...
Six Laws of Persuasion
#1 Reciprocity
·        Make a favor and get future obligation
·        People say YES when they are OBLIGATED
·        Moment of “YES” and “No”
#2 Scarcity
·        People want more of what they have less
·        Present unique benefit that they stand to LOSE
·        People are persuaded by scarcity of information
#3 Authority
·        If an expert says it, it must be true
·        Develop Trust, by presenting weakness before strength
#4 Consistency
·        People say YES to people who are consistent
·        Get Public Commitment
#5 Consensus
·        People do what others usually do
#6 Liking
·        People say YES top people they Like
·        Similarities, Compliments, Cooperation
