A structured tradecraft method of influence that moves a target from initial contact to decisive commitment with precision and control.

Persuasion isn’t random, it’s systematic. Just like a precision strike, influence works best when it’s broken down into phases. Operatives, negotiators, and even street-level hustlers all know the same truth: if you understand the sequence, you can control the outcome.

That sequence of persuasion is what’s called the Kill Chain. It’s a five-step progression that moves from identifying your target to closing the deal.

The Persuasion Kill Chain is strategy of structure, not deception. By following this sequence, you remove luck from the equation. Whether you’re running an operation overseas, negotiating a deal, or just trying to move someone off the fence, the same discipline applies. Persuasion, like any operation, rewards preparation, patience, and precision.
