Being able to persuade people in an interpersonal setting is one of the main techniques used in covert hypnosis.
The mysterious detective who is able to procure an admission from an offender who isn't willing to talk to anyone, the charismatic gentleman who is able to sway any lady to do his bidding, the conman who never gets in trouble because he always seems so convincing and truthful in his words. All of these, are examples of the art of interpersonal persuasion.
How then does one master this art using covert hypnosis?
As with all forms of covert hypnosis, rapport must be established with a person before they are suggestible. When rapport is established, a person is subconsciously more willing to be co-operative with your thoughts and ideas.
By placing verbal cues within the course of a conversation, you are building up a person's subconscious to be persuaded by an idea that you wish to present to them. You do this so subtly that the person believes they thought of the idea themselves.
The idea you plant may be that the person should go out with you, follow you, to raise their right arm, to buy a product you're selling them - you can implant practically any idea you want within a person's subconscious, and using the rapport you have established with that person, persuade them to act upon the idea.
