Conversational
Hypnosis:
Establish
Rapport with Leading
By Steve G

Conversational hypnosis is a program of powerful
techniques used to persuade and control those around you. Not only is conversational hypnosis used so that you have
influence over others, but it is also used so that other people do not take advantage of you. Conversational
hypnosis allows you to establish rapport with other individuals and that leads to you getting what you
want.
The most important aspect of conversational hypnosis is learning how to develop
rapport with other people. Rapport is the ability to be “in tune” with someone subconsciously. Rapport will enable
others to have trust in you. Rapport will allow you to gain their trust so that you can get what you
want.
In past articles I have talked about establishing rapport through pacing and
mirroring techniques. In this article I am going to talk about the technique of leading. Leading is a technique to
use after you have been pacing someone for about 5-10 minutes. However, I highly suggest practicing leading for a
week on friends or strangers before trying it out to get what you want.
Leading is where you make someone do what you want them to do. For example, if you
have been pacing and mirroring someone for a little while, it is time to test to see if they have developed rapport
with you. If you have established rapport correctly, you can take the lead by doing something and they will
follow.
It is important to make sure you have mastered mirroring and pacing before you move
on to leading. Be sure to practice all three techniques before being put in a serious position where you intend to
lead someone. These techniques take a little bit of practice to master and before long you will be a master of
conversational hypnosis.
While practicing on friends or strangers, I suggest keeping the leading simple. For
example, after you have mirrored and paced someone for 5-10 minutes, you can lead them by scratching your head. If
they scratch their head, you have accomplished your goal of leading them.
Leading is a great technique to use in a business setting because you can get them to
do what you want them to do. However, it is very important to be careful in a business setting. It is possible that
other business people know about conversational hypnosis. Let’s say for example that you scratch your head. If the
other person waits a little while and then scratches their head, then your technique is a success. However if they
scratch their head very quickly after you did, perhaps they are trying to pace you. So, be careful!
Another way you can use leading is to slow someone’s voice tempo, or to speed it up.
If someone is speaking too quickly, you can start slowing down your voice and see if they follow your lead. Leading
has all sorts of possibilities. I encourage you to practice this skill and soon you will be leading people to do
what you want!
