A Persuasion Tip

It’s easiest to persuade people who are aligned on the problem – and its severity.

Infected hair follicles don’t inspire action, but bleeding arteries do.  Tiny profits with big risks don’t inspire investment, but big potential profits even with big risks could be attractive.

Before you offer a solution or an opportunity, find people who buy into the problem.  Action will follow the level and duration of their commitment.
