    What is Persuasive Communication
    and why do we need it?
    Persuasive Communication is intended to convince your
    audience to believe a certain view, message or vision. You
    can persuade through speech, through writing, through
    images or any combination of the three.
    Persuasion is a very important element of any business
    communication. It can be used for various purposes: to
    convince someone in your point of view, to make someone
    change his or her ideas about something, or to resolve
    disputes.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    1. Listen Actively
    When you are actively listening to someone, you are
    truly digging deep to understand their point of view,
    motivations and reasons for feeling a certain way.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    2. Ask Effective Questions
    Just as active listening is important to business professionals, so,
    too, is the ability to ask effective questions. In order to improve
    your persuasion skills, you’ll need to master the art of asking
    effective questions, so you can gather the information you need
    to influence others.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    3. Encourage Others to Talk
    In business, communication is vital. From face-to-face
    interactions to email and telephone calls, you’re constantly
    communicating with others. A professional who has learned how
    to persuade others will talk noticeably less, encouraging others to
    talk more.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    4. Show Passion
    Passion is incredibly important to building influence. When
    you are talking with someone about a product or service and
    you can tell they live and breathe it, you are more than likely
    drawn to them and whatever they may be selling.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    5. Be Genuine
    Persuasive people are genuine people. These are individuals
    who strive to be honest in all walks of life and are comfortable
    in their own skin.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    6. Invest in Others
    Highly persuasive professionals take the time to help others
    achieve their goals. This can easily be done by offering advice,
    mentoring younger colleagues, and providing unwavering
    encouragement.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    7. Connect
    In business, it can be easy to rush to the end goal. However,
    professionals who strive at influencing others slow the process
    down. They take time to build a personal connection with
    others.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    8. Clear and Concise Communication
    Being able to share your ideas in a quick, understandable way
    is important as a business professional. When you speak, you
    should come across as knowledgeable about whatever it is your
    discussing, no matter how complex the topic.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    9. Leave a Good First Impression
    People tend to form an opinion about us within the first seven
    seconds of meeting. So how do you combat that and make a
    good impression? Smile, practice good posture, be welcoming,
    and offer a firm handshake.
    What makes someone
    a good Persuasive Communicator?
    10. Use Good Body Language
    People who are highly persuasive tend to also focus on positive
    body language. You have to consciously think about your approach
    and how you are positioning yourself, from hand gestures and
    facial expressions to the tone of voice you use when speaking. All
    of these offer clues to those you are meeting with.
