I think Gary is talking about using "Surprise" as a way to manipulate or advance a position and telling the "Truth" is a cause of this surprise.

Yes. I think that summarizes it well.

Many people say that "honesty is its own reward", but that would be a matter for a different discussion.

AZ how is surprise or truth "The most effective manipulative technique in selling"?

That is Gary's personal opinion. You'll have to get the answer from him.

Don't discount the effectiveness of "Intimidation" for manipulating or advancing a position.

There seems to be a comprehension problem here. Just because AZ did a fine job of summarizing my posted thoughts doesn't mean he agrees with them. He may or may not, but at least he took the time to try to understand what another person was expressing.

Houston, if you disagree with my opinions, just say so. Nobody will bite your head off. Differences of opinion make for a better forum. Issuing a cry for help, among the thousands of visitors to this site, merely to explain my words, seems like waste of time.

I didn't have a difference of opinion about this Gary. I just didn't understand what you were saying.

For conversational reframing try "Mind Lines".

The technique goes something like this... you're working with a salesperson (liner) who lands you on a vehicle. When you've agreed that you'd be interested in talking about a deal the salesperson turns you over to another salesperson (closer).
