Most people don't pay attention to their persuasion skills. And that's not very smart
Look. I went from being terrible at negotiating to closing deals over and over. Some projects, surpassing the $40 million mark.
I couldn't believe how vital it was.
Every day, I send you a letter with a persuasion tip so you don't have to waste years in class like me.

Note: What readers find here is powerful. Using it, you can get just about anyone to do just about anything. So, the assumption moving forward is to use it ethically. The difference between persuasion and manipulation is intention.
— 8 Letters you've already missed —
The top eight letters from this year that subscribers loved the most:
#8. How to close any client using the exact 3 mechanisms Jordan Belfort (The Wolf of Wall Street) triggered in anyone to get what he wanted from them. Only to be used with what he calls "ethical persuasion."
#7. The Leonardo Dicaprio frame you're missing in your current job that is costing you getting the respect you deserve, the recognition you deserve, and the salary you deserve. It won't risk your position, quite the opposite.
#6. Steve Jobs' legendary question in interviews to filter for A-players (mandatory if you're hiring). If instead you're the candidate and you're the one who drops it, you'll stand out like a purple cow.
#5. The ignored psychological angle used by the best copywriters in the 80's (based on the three human motivators to make decisions) that I used to turn a single ad into 5,000+ subscribers in just one week.
#4. If I started a business in 2026, I'd do this. Your available time, budget, skills, experience, sex, height, and underwear size won't change the decision.
#3. The 5 books that rewired my brain. Relics that (if you actually put the theory into practice) will destroy your imposter syndrome and transform even the shyest kid in the room into a master negotiator.
#2. The persuasion trick I learned from the best pickup artists in history (even intelligent people are blind to it) that gives you an unfair advantage in life. You'll never see sales the same way.
#1. Have you ever seen a Rolex for $100? Why my prices are way (way) higher than my competitors, and why I still sell far (far) more than them. Understand the psychology behind my entire strategy, steal it ruthlessly, and thank me later.
I don't resend letters. If you miss a day, you miss a tip.
P.S. If you subscribe, you also get a gift that if you pay attention (and only if you pay attention), will help you sell more starting now. Try it and see.
— In every letter I'll try to sell you something —
And I'll do it in such a shameless way that if you pay attention to how I do it (instead of just reading what I write), you'll find so many lessons on persuasion, and on how to make money whatever your situation, that even if you don't buy anything it'll be worth it.
If you have thin skin, or you can't read between the lines, my message isn't for you, and my recommendation is that you don't subscribe.
This isn't a marketing trick, it's my sincere and genuine advice.

P.P.S. I can't promise you instant success the second you join. But I can promise you something. You make money by helping other people.
The more people there are, and the more you help, the better. Help as much as you possibly can. And you won't just fulfill your soul. You'll fill your head with knowledge, and your pockets as a bonus.
Be selfish and help others.
