There is more involved in getting people to say "yes" than luck, guesswork, or their whim.
The skilled in human relations have several techniques and methods which greatly increase the chances of people saying "yes" to them (getting them to say "yes" simply means getting them to do what you want them to do).
Here are four good methods:
Everything in this world is done for a reason. So when you want somebody to do something, give them a reason why they should do it.
However, be sure the reasons you give them are their reasons, meaning reasons that are to their advantage and benefit.
The wrong way would be for you to give reasons that would be to your advantage or benefit.
In short, tell people how they will benefit by doing what you want them to do. Not how you benefit.
When you are trying to get people to say "yes" to you, first get them into a "yes" frame of mind. This is done by asking them two or three "yes" questions.
Examples:
A "yes" question is a question that can only be answered with a "yes".
The idea behind "yes" questions is that if you get people into a yes frame of mind it makes it more probable they will say yes to you.
Be sure, however, to ask "yes" questions properly. That is, TO NOD YOUR HEAD "YES" WHILE YOU ARE ASKING THE QUESTION AND TO START OFF THE QUESTION WITH THE WORD "YOU".
