Ask for a favor by saying ‘I need your help’
People dislike feeling guilty and love to feel wanted. By being careful with the language you use while requesting a favour, you can take advantage of this. Start by stating, “I need your help,” as opposed to merely asking, “Can you do this?”
By utilizing the word “help,” you lessen the chance that they would reply no and personalize the request. The more individualized approach makes individuals feel indispensable, and it induces shame to refuse to assist someone.
