Got to jump in here and say ... you guys, if you've never tried tonality,
TRY IT TODAY. Try it sarging, try it at the deli when you ask for cheese,
try it in the office with your colleagues, or better still with any
colleagues you need to persuade around to your way of thinking.
You do need a good motor. But you need to know what to do with it when
you've got it. So this is what you do.
1. Slow it down
2. Make it deeper
3. Smile or keep straight faced while you're using it, according to whether
you're giving a good or a negative vibe (intentionally, of course)
4. Use silence - part of slowing it down, but don't forget to give them a
chance to think about what you've said, and a chance to become just slightly
more on-edge ... which is only natural, because, of course, (straight face)
... (deep emphasis)YOU ... (normal emphasis, still straight) are in control
... (smile)because YOU ... (smile bigger, widen eyes) are the MASTER of
seduction .... (pause, EC, keep smiling, then break state before she gets a
chance to realize she's being dazzled by those headlamps - and focus all
your attention on something else).
