  • #47 How to Be more Persuasive Using Neuroscience, Chat With Jack Vincent

    Jack started his career as a magazine editor and writer. Two years out of university, Jack moved from New York to Barcelona with a one-way ticket. Jobs in journalism weren’t easy to find in the early 80s, but marketing communications was where he found his sweet spot. By the end of the decade, he was marketing the worldwide sponsorships to the Olympic Games, then World Cup Football and the ATP Men’s Tennis Tour.

    And today? Not only is he helping people sell more effectively, he’s back to writing — only this time it’s screenplays and fiction thrillers. Paradoxically, that fits with sales. We’ll let him explain on the podcast!

    In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to sell more effectively, how to become more persuasive and how neuroscience can help you to gain influence.
