About this listen

In "How to Sell Like a Con Artist," Shaun Graff takes you on an intriguing journey into the world of persuasion, as seen through the eyes of the most unlikely teachers: con artists. This book is not a guide to deceit, but rather a unique exploration of the art of influence, distilled from the cunning tactics of con artists. Graff masterfully uncovers the psychological strategies used in cons and transforms them into ethical tools for effective selling, leadership, and everyday interactions.

Why learn from con artists? They are, after all, the masters of persuasion. Each chapter in this book reveals a different aspect of their craft, from creating unshakable belief to the art of storytelling, all translated into practical, ethical strategies for genuine influence. Whether you’re in sales, marketing, or simply aiming to improve your persuasive skills, this book offers invaluable insights.

Graff’s approach is both practical and insightful, blending psychological theory with real-world applications. He turns the shadowy techniques of con artists into legitimate strategies for effective communication and influence, all while maintaining a strong ethical compass.
