What is Reddit's opinion of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Moving Others?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

> I'm perceived as an aggressive person when I speak. So Im just worried they might get scared away.

I'd suggest sending someone else over, then. It's essentially a sales pitch being made, for a piece of real estate.

If you suck at sales and need a professional salesperson to do this, and to spare you from being one among many buyers in a bidding war, hire a professional real estate salesperson to pitch it.

If you want to make the sale yourself, maybe spend a few months reading /r/sales or read this book really quick?

I'm glad at least one person got it.

Persuasion and manipulation are the same thing. Which you use depends on if you agree with the goal. We all persuade/manipulate and the good persuaders are almost always quite successful. The very best persuaders we often say have a "reality disruption field".

If you watch a news source that has failed to mention any of the following and comes up with a new anonymous bombshell and doomsday porn every week then it's understandable you use the word "manipulation" and are frustrated.

>Landmark prison reform bill, getting china to crack down on fentanyl, increased sanctions on Russia, Opportunity and Revitalization Council formed to bring $100b to economically distressed communities, record high jobs/median household income, consumer confidence, manufacturing confidence, women/black/latino employment, China reducing auto tariffs and stopping mandatory IP sharing, improved NATO ally commitments, Korea hostages returned, ISIS retreats, global effort to end criminalization of homosexuality, Canada/Mexico and EU trade deals, direct praise from Jon Stewart on administering the 9/11 first responders Zadroga act, fast tracking generic prescriptions, etc.

>This strikes me as the one true genius of Trump’s candidacy: the creation of the myth that even when he’s losing, he’s winning.

You might be interested to know Trump's pastor growing up was Norman Vincent Peale. Even if you don't know him you've probably heard his book title "The Power of Positive Thinking", the book that popularized affirmations and self help in general and overall persuasive guy. If you're familiar with the book I think you'll see his communication style in a different way.
