I
am not sure about the ethics involved here but I do know one
thing: It is a must need on the Internet. Without powerful writing,
you will not succeed even if you are giving out free gold. A
popular example being the experiment conducted by some marketing
gurus. They advertised to give out $100 bills free. There was
no response because the writing was not compelling/ convincing
enough.
With
the information explosion on the Internet, the competition is
more deadly. Hence the use of power writing is at its peak.
You have to stand out, to grab, to dominate, to intoxicate,
capture and be noticed. The more you differ from the norms,
the greater are your chances of success.
You
need to make your power writing more forceful and spellbinding.
How do you fascinate and mesmerize your readers? Here is a seven-step
technique for achieving hypnosis through writing:
- Use
suggestion to subtly introduce an impression, inspiration,
idea or thought. Let's consider a simple work example using
the concept of 'sleep'. Our suggestion will be: 'You are
sleepy'.
- Give
instruction/command. Tell the person to take action as
desired by you. Give a direct command. For our example,
this will be: 'Go to sleep'.
- Back
up with a conviction/determination statement &endash; A
conviction statement conveys a sense of assurance, certainty,
confidence, sincerity and passion. Conviction is very easily
generated by using the word 'will' instead of 'can'. For
our example, the conviction statement is: 'You will sleep'.
- Follow
up with endorsement/re-affirmation. Back up your conviction
statement by using the word 'Yes'. For our example, this
is: 'Yes, you will sleep'.
- Give
a vivid description to appeal to emotions - Describe in
great detail giving all the advantages, disadvantages and
properties. In short make it so vivid that your reader sees,
hears, smells, tastes and feels the action and hence gets
involved emotionally.
For example consider the following three descriptions: 'A
strawberry'; 'A red strawberry'; 'A large ripe, red and
juicy strawberry, mmm..'. With the third description you
can almost feel your mouth watering.
Now back to our work example: 'You will fall in to a deep,
soothing, slumbering sleep'.
- Use
powerful words. Some words click on the subconscious power
of the mind and immediately trigger certain strong emotions.
Hence these words have a strong appeal.
A small fraction of such words are outlined here: You, free,
magic, hell, damn, baby, do, secret, revealed, sensational,
revolutionary, pioneer, discover, will, success, yes.
- Use
repetitive rhythms. Repetition fascinates the mind and creates
an intoxicating influence. For our example, the rhythm is:
'Go to sleep; you will sleep; yes you will sleep; you will
fall into a deep, soothing, slumbering sleep'.
For successful hypnosis, the rhythm has to be repeated several
times. Remember the rule of thumb of marketing experts:
You need to repeat your sales message between seven to ten
times to close a deal.
However since hypnotic writing is already so powerful, I
will go with a cycle of three: at the start, in the middle
and at the end of your message.
For ease of understanding, the work example used was very
simple and straight forward. In actual business writing,
you have to be subtle. You need to influence and fascinate
without offending or being obvious to the reader. You will
achieve this by weaving the above magic into the body of
your regular business writing.
To integrate effectively, you may change the order of presentation,
split up the process and make variations to the concept.
Here your imagination is the limit.
