Ethical Persuasion Sales Training and Consulting

I had a fantastic session with Patrick from Ethical Persuasion. What really stood out was how well he understood my needs and tailored his approach accordingly. He wasn’t trying to sell me a cookie-cutter solution – instead, he took the time to listen, prepare thoughtfully, and offer valuable suggestions that were truly relevant to my role as a financial adviser specialising in helping women achieve their financial goals.

Patrick’s flexibility, insight, and genuine care made a big difference. I highly recommend his services to anyone wanting to refine their communication, pitch, or presence in a way that feels authentic and effective.

I met Patrick a while ago and was fascinated by his knowledge of the art of persuasion and I’m currently doing the Persuasion Continuity Program which I’m loving! It’s great because its a short session each week touching on different factors (and there are SO many!) so it doesn’t take much time but it teaches me something new every day. I’m not new to sales or business but some of the subtle nuances make all the difference, like one word in the copy on a sale page or to show social proof or the psychology behind giving something for free for reciprocity instead of asking for an email first, and things you’d never even think of that make a big difference. I’m very interested in psychology and this is giving me some great foundational knowledge in short bursts so I can keep focused and then try implementing each new thing one at a time so it’s not too much information all at once. This is not only relevant to business but life success so it’s worth it for ANYONE to join! Thanks Patrick

I have finished the Ethical Influence Practitioners Program this week. The 8-week course facilitated by Patrick van der Burght was well delivered, insightful, practical and engaging. I liked that I was learning with others and we could share and discuss our experiences throughout the course. The program was very accessible and Patrick was really helpful making it relevant to my business coaching practice.

Yesterday Patrick presented to one of the valued clients of our accounting firm BT Corporate Advisory in Malvern, Victoria. Our client could use some assistance with regards to being more persuasive when making proposals for their multi-million dollar projects, and we had engaged Patrick to share some insight.

Patrick delivered an engaging, informal presentation in our office to their company directors and leadership, which was well received. Even during the meeting, ideas surfaced within their team, and they were fine-tuned with the science that was shared. Clearly, you can’t learn all this in one presentation but the clients thought it was time very well spent and were thankful to us for having organised this for them.

Patrick’s Ethical Influencer Practitioner Course is exceptional! Over 8 weeks I have learned and easily been able to implement the many subtle as well as substantially impactful shifts in my thinking and choice of language as a result of understanding the behavioural science behind persuasion. The opportunity to learn and to practice with the others in the course was a great learning method. It is so rewarding to hear “yes” more often – and all within our own grasp! Loved it Patrick!!!
