Agent of Influence: How to Use Spy Skills to Persuade Anyone, Sell Anything, and Build a Successful Business

As soon as I received "Agent of Influence" a couple of weeks ago I have picked it up and been sucked into it many times. As life has thrown me a very odd schedule between a full time, second shift job and my days taking care of my four sons while Mom is at work it's tough to get involved in a book but this one does it. Totally insightful as I've learned so much about business and the power of persuasion as a positive. I can't wait to get to the back cover so I can turn it over and start again, ya know, in case i missed something. Thank you Jason Hanson, I am glad to have found a great American like yourself who is willing to share in the true American dream. looking forward to the future and what more I can learn.

Like all of Jason’s books that I’ve read, he offers factual, practical and common sense execution of unique skills that most are not aware of, but all can use. In Agent of Influence he applies his tradecraft in an ingenious twist for all to understand and use. A great read as well as a a solid reference tool to use. The core of all relationships centers around manipulation, how you apply it is what really matters, read, learn and be a positive influence for good in your world.

This book is full of useful information for practical usage. Jason provides an easy to understand take for the layman. If you have not read any of his books than you need to. I really enjoyed the chapter of the book pretaining to detecting if someone is lying and how to sell yourself or product. I have read 3 of Jason's books and have enjoyed them all. I recommend his books to anyone that wants to improve their lifestyle and protect their families.

If you're looking for a literary masterpiece, this isn't it. It is a book that is fun to read with examples that can be leveraged as actionable steps in your life and business. The stories make this book so much better than your standard business non-fiction book. It was fun to read and had excellent information that can be used practically.

In this book Jason shows how he applied his training as a CIA agent in the spy business to starting his own small business and making it successful. Jason shows how the SADR Cycle used in spy recruitment can be applied to people you want to deal with in the business world. You must find out what motivates a person, what they want, their likes and dislikes and as much as you can about them in order to find how both can benefit the other. I have purchased and read all 3 of Jason's books and have found all to be informative as well as entertaining.
