Persuasion And Influence-Become Popular By Passing It On

A study done by a group of psychologists in the 1980s found that there is a natural human tendency to dislike a person who brings us unpleasant information, even when that person did not cause the bad news.

A recent report by David L. Langford of the Associated Press highlighted how true the result of this study was. In his news-report, Mr. Langford reported how citizens were blaming television forecasters for a period of bad weather. The whole situation could perhaps be summed up by the case of a woman calling a police department in Indiana, wanting the weatherman arrested for bringing all the snow.

What does this tell us? Well it does tell us not to be weathermen. The next, more impactful thing that we can see from this is that we dislike people who bring us bad news and similarly, we like people who bring us good news. Bringing good news to others can help us to score some major popularity points.

Whenever you hear a compliment about someone made by another person, pass the compliment on to the intended recipient. For example, if Tim compliments Sally's hair to you, pass the compliment onto Sally the next time you see her. As grateful as she will be to Tim for the compliment, she'll be grateful to you for bringing her the good news.

Alternatively, you do not have to just pass on compliments. You could pass on a whole host of other things that interest the person. For example, you know that Sally is interested in theatre. The next time you see a new course on theatre studies or even a highly rated play, tell Sally about it. It shows Sally that you're thinking about her and her interests and she'll be very grateful to you for that. Can you hear your popularity points reaching a new high score?

The main idea is simple, just pass it on!
