The Proof Behind Social Proof
Has anyone ever asked you, “Give me an example of your point?” and you suddenly forgot how to speak? Or have you said, “Let me give you an example…,” and then have immediately gone into brain freeze without any ice cream? “Social Proof” comprises pragmatic examples that others can readily relate to which reinforce your point instantly.
When you “open the hood” on social proof, beneath is actually a psychological dynamic which creates normative pressure assuring that the actions of others are appropriate and should be imitated. A desire to “fit in” is created.
Join me for 90 minutes and fill your conversations, narrative, and collateral with social proof that will build your brand and fill your bank account. People ask what research I invest in for my success. I don’t. Then they ask what my investigative habits are. I don’t have any. “So what DO you do?” they ask.
I look around.
Learn how to look around to dominate conversations and close business: October 14, 2025. 10:30 to noon, US eastern time. Video and Zoom notes included. Fee: $350 until and including Sept. 30, $500 thereafter. https://alanweiss.com/growth-experiences/the-proof-behind-social-proof/

I’ve been providing this seminal educational and business development event for over two decades, with many people attending several times because there is so much content and so many changes to consider. That certainly applies today more than ever. This is my third virtual session. You will gain and learn and master:

- Creation of a “larger picture,” abundance mentality.
- Increasing the size of your proposals.
- Decrease your labor through increased advisory work and appropriate creation of remote and passive offerings.
- Improve your standing as a “results leader.”
- Improving the quality of your life.
That’s right, 2.5 days that will produce a lifetime of results. There is preparatory reading I’ll provide and more I’ll recommend. You’ll also receive three books and extensive prep work, 30 days of post-program coaching from me (which will be extended if you’re already in a coaching relationship with me).

Six Figures to Seven (6-2-7)
This is by far one of my most popular programs (along with the Million Dollar Consulting® College and Master Class). I’ve delivered it a total of six times on three continents, each time different, because the focus is on contemporary events and the near future. Join me to learn and apply how, for example, to:
- Charge over $100,000 for nearly every project.
- Go beyond coaching to the more lucrative advisory work.
- Build a brand that's on every buyer's mind.
- Develop novel and new IP weekly and AD HOC.
- Use language to control any conversation.
- Stimulate evangelism as a sales strategy.
- Create instant eBooks.
- Dramatically improve your speaking and videos.
- Overcome esteem issues dealing with buyers and fees.
There will be role plays, so if they make you fearful, I’ll have a “safe haven” for you (out in the hall). There will be a practicum, so if working on client issues makes you nervous, bring medication (enough to share, of course). So man-up. Woman-up. Human- up. Whatever. I cannot guarantee that you will accept and apply what I share with you. But you will have already paid me, so what the hell? I will promise that if you apply even some of my techniques consistently and completely, you’ll make a minimum 50:1 return on this investment. Social proof? Just ask my clients: https://alanweiss.com/testimonials/
Location: Chicago (Palmer House) Dates and Times: September 17-18, 9am to 4pm. Continental breakfast and lunch are included along with 30 days of follow-up Q&A based on program content and including a free Zoom session for registrants, based on the program.
Your investment: $5,000 https://alanweiss.com/shop/gexp/six-figures-to-seven-2025/

An Alan Live Experience: Beyond Success
What happens when you’re meeting your aspirations, when your lifestyle is fabulous, and your prospects are excellent? How much is “enough”? Is there a “retirement”? How do you change (or sell) your business and IP? Are philanthropy, volunteering, and service right for you? Are you able to care for family and important others? What will keep you excited and positive—and “youthful”? We’ll explore this and more over two days of intense discussion and exercises in a small group. We’ll get together in New York for two 9-to-4 days,
September 24th and 25th, including a reception. As you know, you’ll learn a lot from your colleagues and peers in that room. $7,500. https://alanweiss.com/growth-experiences/beyond-success/

An electrician was in my house doing some work in the early days of my model train layout. "You did all the scenery?" he asked.
"I did," I said proudly.
"And the electrical connections underneath?"
"I did," I said proudly.
"May I see them?"
Out of "professional courtesy" I parted the drape covering the area below the platform. He glanced in and quickly withdrew.
"Tell no one that I ever saw this!" he said, retreating.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because if anyone thought this was my work I could lose my license."
