Where Science Meets Soul - The Evolution of Influence

When you lead with ethical influence, clients don’t need to be convinced — they choose to follow.

  • Deeper Trust

  • Better Referrals.

  • Shorter Sales Cycles.

Led by Tommy Schaff, one of only six certified Cialdini Method Trainers in North America.

Seats are limited — because not everyone is ready to lead with science and soul.

When the Science Is Proven… the Only Question Is:

Who Will You Become Because of It?

Dr. Robert Cialdini’s Principles of Persuasion proved what drives human decision-making.
Tommy Schaff’s Followed takes the next step - teaching you how to become the kind of person people naturally trust, respect, & follow.

Cialdini teaches what to do.

Followed teaches who to be.

Because persuasion may earn a “yes.”

But followership builds a legacy.

What’s It Costing You When
People Don’t Follow?

What’s It Costing You When People Don’t Follow?

Prospects stall even when
your advice is right.

Growth plateaus while
effort increases.

Referrals aren't the right fit, slow or stop altogether.

COIs see you as asalesperson,
not a trusted peer.

You’re not broken.
The system you were taught is.

You were trained to chase, pitch, and push - but people don’t want to be chased; they want to be led.

And every time you rely on pressure instead of presence, you lose what never comes back:

  • Time

  • Trust

  • Opportunity

Why High Achieving Advisors

Say This Works

These aren’t tricks. They’re timeless truths.

  • Each of the 7 Principles - Reciprocity, Liking, Authority, Social Proof, Commitment, Unity, and Scarcity - shapes how people decide who to follow and trust.

  • Every principle you’ll learn has been proven in thousands of behavioral studies by Dr. Robert Cialdini, the world’s most cited expert on ethical influence.

But Followed goes further:

  • It teaches you how to embody those principles - so influence becomes instinct, not manipulation.

Because the most influential advisors don’t persuade

They inspire trust that lasts
