What was the most profound thing you learned from that book?
People are largely emotional when making choices, which is why rapport is so so so important. A few years ago, I conducted a mini experiment by bidding on shoes. I collected shoes at the time before I donated most of them. I got better prices by being likeable and complementing the other side on their choice of shoes vs being a tough negotiator trying to overtly extract every single cent.
