Back to plugins indeed! I had a short spell in hospital and the plugins book arrived the day after I got home, so has been good reading in bed. I'm going to run through it again and then work through your examples one at a time.

I also got a WordPress Themes book at the same time from the same publisher. Now it's busy busy busy as I recuperate.

Zig Ziglar covers some of this as well in Closing the Sale. As long as it's win/win, it's all good. I'll pick up the book shortly. I'm using one of your themes on one of my sites, and it looks really good.Strangely.tv, the story is probably apocryphal, it pops it in a lot of persuasion and sales literature.Jim Knox: there's persuasion, and there's manipulation... let me guess, she used a lot of guilt and shaming language...? But this is off topic... back to plugins... Yes, very good standard persuasion practice. Zig Ziglar covers some of this as well in Closing the Sale. As long as it's win/win, it's all good.

We use compromise in all our relationships and those that are highly skilled in compromise usually get all that they originally wanted. I speak from experience, I am Divorced and broke, she was a master at compromise...

I've ordered your plugins book. So what are you really after? ;-)Actually that's a very good point you've made there. Can you remember if the magazine article was sourced anywhere? I'd like to find more about it.It is, of course, one of the things that you worry about as a parent - the verbal dexterity, that is. Warning your children to 'not do this' and 'don't do that' with strangers is all well and good. I always tried to instill a bit more common sense and savvy into them instead of straight commands by rote. It seems to have worked as they've all made it to adulthood!The same ploy is used by governments to get things done as well. Usually, a 'leak' will suggest some awful new law or tax is coming. Then there'll be a huge outcry, the government will 'backdown from their original demands' and actually instigate the plan they had in mind all along with everyone's complete acquiescence!! Okay Vladamir.
