Are you being sold—or manipulated?

Discover the hidden psychological tactics marketers and salespeople use to influence your decisions without you even realizing it. In this eye-opening guide, you'll uncover 7 dark psychology techniques that exploit your emotions, biases, and instincts to drive purchases and commitments.

From scarcity traps and emotional anchoring to guilt-based persuasion, this book breaks down the most common manipulative strategies used in advertising, sales, and everyday interactions. Each chapter reveals how the tactic works, why it’s effective, and—most importantly—how to spot and resist it.

Whether you're a curious consumer, a psychology enthusiast, or someone who wants to protect your wallet and your mind, this book will empower you to recognize manipulation and make smarter choices.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How emotional triggers override rational thinking
  • Why urgency and scarcity are often manufactured
  • How social proof and authority can be faked
  • Ways to defend yourself against psychological manipulation

Knowledge is power—and this book puts it back in your hands.
