“I attended a weekend training with Dr. Chris Phelps on the Cialdini principles and how they apply to not just dentistry, but in everyday life. I can sum it up in two words – ‘simply amazing!!’ And to be really brief, I’ll share three more words of wisdom – ‘take the class!’ I’m taking it again, and bringing my entire team! Thank God our paths crossed!!” -Dr. George Bare
“I have been in dentistry for over 20 years. I have learned more in this 2 day course than any other workshop, training or continuing education. I am excited to put these principles to the test in our office.” -Leslie Deerman, RDH, OM; Flint River Dental
Ethical Principles of Persuasion for Dentistry
+ MOMENT MAKERS WORKSHOP FOR DENTISTRY
Learn how to set the stage to decrease no shows, get more people to refer, to pay today and increase case acceptance!
The success of leaders, executives, managers, and marketers is measured by their ability to accomplish goals. Those goals are met by persuading and inspiring others to share a vision and pursue a common purpose. We live in a world where those who are the most persuasive are the most prosperous. How successful you are in your professional and personal life depends on your ability to influence others.
People used to think that to change the behavior of others took an innate skill or special “artistry” possessed by only a few. Now, because of decades of rigorously-conducted, scientific, peer-reviewed, published research, it is accepted that successful influence can be taught and learned.
The research that Dr. Robert Cialdini has pioneered is foundational in the annals of social influence. No one else has done more to make this science available and actionable.
The Principles of Persuasion (POP) Workshop is the only workshop developed by Dr. Cialdini, largely based on his book, Influence, which has sold over two million copies. Because the POP combines the science of influence with its profitable and ethical applications, it is unique.
Just as importantly, the POP “translates” the science to be easily understood and easily applied. Sometimes adding a mere word or changing a wording sequence can change the percentage of compliance by over 200%. When the science of social is available, why risk relying on any less reliable approach.
"I used anchors all day and added over $12,000 in same day and ended day at over $20,000. Worked great!"
-Dr. Phil Harper, Idaho Falls
