“If You Order Your “Business-In-A-Box” By The Date Stamped In Red On The “Registration Form”, You’ll Get These FREE BONUSES Worth $1,469.00!”
2. Punishment
Example:
“The last product we offered reprint rights to sold-out quickly. And we had to turn away a lot of disappointed people. Don’t let this happen to you.”
3. Positive Expertise
You talk to your prospect as an authority on the subject.
“If you are serious about success and want to make money with direct mail, you must get this course.”
4. Negative Expertise
Again, you talk as an authority.
“If you can’t take it from here and make a ton of money — you are beyond all hope.”

“You’re receiving this newsletter because you were smart enough to ask for a subscription.”

Calling in past favors.
Example:
“After all the gifts I gave you, this time you should believe me and take up my offer.”
8. Aversive Stimulation
This is a ‘carrot or stick’ technique.
Example:
“I’m putting advertisement in your newsletter if you continue using my free service. When you upgrade to paid service, I’ll remove the advertisement.”
9. Moral Appeal
This tactic involves finding moral common ground. Then use the moral commitments of a person to comply.
Example:
“You believe this service is illegal, don’t you? You don’t believe my service is illegal, do you? Then you ought to use mine. It’s the right thing to do.”
10.Positive Self-feeling

“If you don’t return it to him and apologize, you’ll find it hard to live with yourself.”

“Smart people tend to sign up my program for the year in advance, because that’s how they can get the best weekly rate.”
13.Negative Altercasting
Example:
“You’re not like those bad sports that whine and complain when they lose a game.”
14.Altruism
This is a common do-me-a-favor tactic.
Example:
