Why do I need to be persuasive?


To be persuasive means to have the power to induce action or belief. 

Persuasive writing moves readers to adopt a certain point of view or approve a course of action.

In recent years, people have learned how to use the skill of persuasive writing to gain influence in the society.

We listen to speeches by Martin Luther King, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and our actions are influenced by their words. They have simply learnt the art of persuasion.

We use persuasion:

·        In the work place, persuasion is crucial in negotiating a contract or a promotion.

·        In personal relationships, it is important to communicate our feelings and subtle aspects of compromise.

·        In marketing and copywriting, you need persuasion to engage your prospects and lead them to buy your products or services.

·        To get a good job, you need to convince your interviewer that you are worth their paycheck.

Persuasive skills are important in writing, marketing, negotiating, and even when wooing a woman.

We will discuss the elements of persuasion tomorrow.
