— Villainous Drug lord Reese Feldman
“Starsky & Hutch”
One of my favorite lessons about influence & persuasion is in the Book of Judges.
Specifically, about a wandering Levite (the “priest” tribe of ancient Israel) and how his concubine was viciously raped to death by some psychopaths who lived amongst the Benjamites.
The Levite (understandably) wanted justice.
But due to the times (mass anarchy and moral apathy), he knew he had to do something radical to get anyone to care.
So what did he do?
Beg for help?
Start a posse?
Complain on Facebook?
None of the above.
What this guy did was, he cut his concubine’s corpse into 12 pieces, and sent a piece to each of the other 12 tribes!
The result?
It persuaded the tribes to go to war with the Benjamites — something that would not have ordinarily been easy to do — especially considering the times and what was happening then.
Here’s why I bring this up:
That Levite used an especially potent weapon of persuasion.
A method that’s also been used by other influential men & women — from other holy men like Sam Childers “The Machine Gun Preacher” to persuade a bunch of malicious voodoo cultists from scaring the other workers he was managing in an orange field… to great marketers like the late Gary Halbert who used it to persuade a bully in the army to not only stop messing with him, but turn him into his bookie and best man at his wedding… to many, many villains over the years, such as Drug lord Reese Feldman in “Starsky & Hutch” to persuade other drug dealers to ditch selling cocaine and sell his “new coke” instead.
I talk about this persuasion secret in chapter 5 of my new book:
“Villainous Weapons Of Persuasion”
It’s the 3rd book in my Villains books trilogy.
And, if you get your copy — kindle or print — before tomorrow (Sunday, 8/11) at midnight EDT, I will give you a valuable gift:
“The Stefania Files: Volume 3”
This is a playlist of 11 advanced marketing, copywriting, and business videos (almost 2 and a half hours of content) I recorded for my woman’s ongoing marketing, copywriting, and business education.
Some of the secrets inside these videos include:
* Little-known psychological & neurological insights into how to create an offer.
* The WebMD secret to making even your blatant sales pitches fascinating and hard to resist buying from. (Believe it or not, people love sales pitches that do this, will spend hours reading those pitches, and even crave having what those pitches are offering - including sometimes even shelling out whatever price you ask if you do this right.)
* Advice to real estate agents who want to immediately close more sales and be the only agent anyone wants to buy from in town (yes, even on your very next deal).
* How to position yourself as a genius in your niche/market/industry without giving a single solution or doing any hard teaching or sharing any value whatsoever.
* Earl Nightingale’s advice for businesses who have convinced themselves they need to be on Facebook and want to make more sales on there. (You won’t get any of the likes or validation or ego boosts you’re seeking, but sales should roll in hot and heavy.)
* How to use an X-acto knife to significantly increase your speed of learning new information.
* A clever way of tricking your brain into not procrastinating building your email list.
* Secret ways for instantly building your will power without hypnosis, affirmations, or other silly gimmicks.
* The shooting pool success secret of an infamous MLM convict who the world despises and hates.
* A centuries-old sales technique for writing email subject lines people can’t ignore.
* How to use email subject lines to slice clean through lead apathy and skepticism.
* How to delete peoples’ overwhelming desire to delete your emails on sight.
* The dumb mistake 99% of marketers make that guarantees you bore people into ignoring your emails, social media posts, books, eBooks, videos, podcasts, and other content.
* The Aristotle marketing & content-creation secret used by shallow politicians who are fawned over by voters and the media… to get elected over deep thinking politicians who are ignored by voters and the media.
* Non-legal advice for keeping health offer sales copy, emails, and other marketing as compliant & safe as you can from government meddling and attacks. (If you sell anything health or money-related I suggest listening to this particular video more than once — it could potentially save you from a lot of heartache and pain.)
* How to make even your most outrageous (assuming they are true…) sales letter claims more believable and credible.
* How the world’s greatest living copywriter got a 200+% increase in response by making a headline objectively *weaker*.
* A computer scientist’s secret for “leveraging” Google and Facebook’s vast customer databases to make your sales letters, lead generation ads, and squeeze pages more responsive.
* How to start knowing what products and services to sell your list before they even know they want them.
* A reclusive A-list copywriter you’ve probably never heard of’s secret tip for automatically building a stronger brand, stronger sales, and a stronger relationship with your customers.
* A “counter intuitive” strategy for taking the sting out of high lead generation and product fulfillment fees.
* How a gas station dominated its market by charging almost twice as much for gas as all its competitors.
* And the list goes on, and on, and on…
Again:
The deadline to get these videos is tomorrow, Sunday, 8/11, at midnight EDT.
You must buy send me your receipt (not just buy the book) by that time, or no videos for you. Since I have nothing but contempt for procrastinators, and take a sadistic pleasure in denying them things they want… I wouldn’t put this off if you want this offer.
Especially since Amazon doesn’t always send customer receipts right away.
