There are various resources available to assist you in being influential. Use them as a learning tool and a resource to maintain your influence. Let’s take a look at some.

Google.com

Even though it is self-evident, you should always begin your search with this ubiquitous search engine. Many people overlook the importance of searching past the first page of results. As these webmasters fight their way to the top of the search engine rankings, you can often unearth some hidden gems. These hidden gems are frequently resources that focus less on selling and more on providing exceptional value.

Dale Carnegie’s book How to Win Friends and Influence People

This book deserves special attention because it is the de facto bible on the subject. This book should be in everyone’s collection and read several times to reinforce the lessons. It’s available as a Kindle book, and if you’re a Kindle Unlimited subscriber, you can obtain a copy as part of your membership. There are numerous abbreviated versions available for those who don’t have the time to read the complete book. However, the book is straightforward to read.

Udemy.com

Udemy features many courses on influence, charm, and other topics. Some of them may appear costly, but Udemy frequently offers discounts on its courses. You can also look for “Udemy Coupon Codes” on the internet, as teachers prefer to utilize them to entice students to their courses.

Amazon.com

Several books on how to influence are available on Amazon. The beautiful thing about Amazon is that you can typically tell which books are good by reading the reviews and selecting the ones with the highest ratings. Another fantastic approach to use Amazon is to look through the table of contents of the most popular books in that category and then search for those subjects to see what you can find.

YouTube.com

When it comes to learning anything new, it’s remarkable how many people disregard YouTube. YouTube provides videos on almost any topic. You’ll have to go a little deeper and sort out the videos that appear to be courses but are merely sales pitches for a product. However, several excellent videos can assist you in learning how to become influential. Another benefit is that most videos on YouTube are free. When reviewing videos, one idea is to browse through the comments and avoid those with many thumbs down.

Which one is your favorite? Leave me a comment below.
