Influence is a skill. Using it honestly is a choice.
Direct answer
Common persuasion techniques include reciprocity (give first), social proof (show others do it), commitment (start small), liking (build rapport), authority (show expertise), scarcity (real limits), framing (present options clearly) and stories. Use them honestly and never to deceive.
Techniques
- Reciprocity: help first.
- Social proof: "Most of the team already uses it."
- Commitment: ask for a small first step.
- Liking: find common ground.
- Authority: share evidence and credentials.
- Scarcity: only when it is true.
- Framing: present benefits that matter to them.
- Storytelling: make it human.
