Built for people who actually have to perform in conversation.
PowerPersuasion™ is for professionals who influence outcomes every week — and are done with scripts that sound fake or tactics that feel gross.
Sales professionals & managers
Set more appointments. Handle objections cleanly. Create desire before you pitch logic — without becoming "that salesperson."
Founders, coaches & consultants
Sell high-trust offers with clarity. Lead discovery conversations that feel natural and still convert.
Leaders & team influencers
Get buy-in faster. Reduce resistance in meetings. Communicate so people feel understood and move.
Who it's not for
- People looking for manipulation hacks or "covert control"
- Anyone unwilling to practice live (this is a drill weekend, not a TED Talk)
- People who want a certificate more than a skill upgrade
What you'll walk out able to do
- Build calibrated rapport fast — without matching people like a robot
- Detect state shifts in real time and adjust before the conversation dies
- Run a three-brain influence sequence that creates desire before logic
- Use ethical language structure so your message is easier to accept
- Elicit values and speak to what actually moves the decision
- Handle objections without arguing
- Stop prejudging outcomes that kill opportunities before they start
You'll leave with tools you can use Monday morning — in sales calls, consults, meetings, and everyday high-stakes conversations.
Most persuasion training fails in the real world
- Scripts that collapse the second someone goes off-path
- "Just be confident" advice with no calibration
- Heavy NLP jargon and almost no usable drills
- Pressure closes that win the moment and lose the relationship
- Smart people who still talk logic first — then wonder why nothing moves
The issue usually isn't intelligence. It's sequence, state, and language. People decide emotionally and socially first. They justify with logic second. If you reverse that order, you create resistance. PowerPersuasion™ installs the operating system for influence under pressure — ethically.
The PowerPersuasion™ operating system
The Persuasion Pyramid
1. The Persuasion Pyramid
Outcome → Rapport → State Control → Language → Filters → Values
Most people jump straight to language or pitch. We train the full stack top-down — and teach you to re-enter whatever layer broke in a live conversation.
State means you and them. Filters means their map of the world. Values is the deepest lever — the ask should speak to what actually moves the decision.
2. The Three-Brain Sequence
A separate conversation engine: 1) Attention & safety · 2) Emotion & meaning · 3) Logic & justification. Order matters. Skip a layer, and the conversation stalls.
3. Ethical Language Tech
Presuppositions, precision questions, and conversational hypnosis patterns — taught as high-integrity tools, not dark arts.
4. Anti-Prejudging Protocol
Stop letting your own assumptions close the door for someone else — especially in appointments, consults, and uncertain opportunities.
The Three-Brain Sequence

What past participants say
"Jason is an excellent instructor – he's extremely knowledgeable and clear and he teaches in a way that is completely engaging. His enthusiasm for the subject is infectious. Having taken dozens of workshops and seminars over the years, I found this to be one of the best. The experiential nature of the workshop gave me real world skills that I could take into my world on Monday. We jumped right in and had fun the entire weekend. Time flew by. Instead of being burnt out at the end of a 3-day course, I wanted MORE!"
Influence with integrity
PowerPersuasion™ is built on a simple rule:
If it isn't win-win, it isn't mastery.
You will learn powerful language and psychological tools. You will also learn when not to use them. This training is for people who want better results and cleaner relationships — in business and in life.
