This is @cynshineonline 's favorite quote, and my least favorite. I prefer to persuade with rationality, proof, wisdom, and clear value, and would prefer if 'friendship' didn't really come into it, lol. Regardless, this is extremely important to the art of persuasion.
LOL!
I think it's hilarious that my favorite is Your least favorite haha. But that's why I get paid the big bucks to make friends and network my face off then eh? 😉😂 Your way of persuasion works...as does mine. That's why we make a great team.
I am not a fan of Hitler but he did know how to persuade the masses (as did Jim Jones & David Koresh). They used persuasion to harm people and get their way but they did know how to use it to get what they want. I prefer to use it to help others help themselves.
You found some epic quotes (and I know it wasn't easy finding these there's no list of "Great quotes for persuasion" anywhere).
"I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I’ve been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." - Michael Jordan
Also one of my favorites from one of my favorite people alive.
Because I realized that creating beautiful things is useless if we can't persuade people to snap out of their autopilot routines and pay attention to whatever we've made.
YES. People scroll by good stuff all the time but without a good hook, no one is going to pay attention.
You can make a swamp all pretty and spend all your time on it but if no one sees it, it's just YOUR swamp - J-Ryze
Not a "persuasion" quote but one of my faves that I use when I'm explaining to our clients the importance of persuading people to see what they've made.
Great post, great quotes. Super valuable to me. I adore persuasion and learning about it changed how I look at things, how I market, and how I help others market their content as well. I appreciate it.

Yep, we each persuade the best ways we're able, and it's great to partner up with others too.
I'm glad you focus on using persuasion to benefit others, highly recommended.
It felt good to compile this quote list, I chose the best out of more than 80 quotes.
And you're right, good hooks are so important and rarely taught to the content-creators who need them most.
I appreciate you reading and commenting (and proof-reading), and I'm glad persuasion has helped you market. #TogetherWeRyze ! 🙏
