Hypnotic techiques in writting?
Created this thread not to debate whether it is ethical to use psychological/hypnotic techniques in writing articles or copywriting. But having followed the other threads for a while, there seems to be a need to consolidate these techniques as there are many different threads about similar topic of writing techniques. You feel the same need too don't you? And it will give an added edge to have cross over techniques from other specialities that might help us to enhanced our writings and articles. Won't it be appropriate to venture some cross-over techniques from the field of psychology and hypnotism?
Whether, you are writing yourself or looking for copywriters, it will sure help you to know some of these techniques to use them or as a checklist to see if they are incoporated by your copy writer to give you that added advantage in publishing?
Milton Erickson is considered the modern father of hypnotism. Here is just one of his hypnotic techniques.
The "Yes" set. It was discovered that the chances of people agreeing to your suggestions or being more open to what you are going to say happens more so, if you ask them three consecutive questions to elicit a yes response in them earlier on. Take a look at the sales persons on the street or the article written by others, some of them could have intentionally or unintentionally incorporated such a technique in. Well, maybe there are similar techniques in our field, but it sure helps to know that it is parallel to what hypnotist used. What are your views?
