Persuasion is a form of social influence. It is the process of guiding people toward the adoption of an idea, attitude, or action by rational and symbolic (though not always logical) means. It is strategy of problem-solving relying on "appeals" rather than force.
six "weapons of influence":
* Liking: people like those who like them or themselves
* Reciprocity: people repay in kind
* Social proof: people follow the lead of similar others
* Consistency: people align with their clear commitments
* Authority: people defer to experts
* Scarcity: people want more of what they can have less of
