General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

There is a pyschological trick you can use when arranging a door to door charity appeal. A few days before hand you ring up ppl in your target area and say you are doing a survey. This can include whatever you like in the form on non intrusive general questions, such as do you believe in giving to charity? It must however include Would you give to a charity door to door collector? The majority of ppl will say yes to this question as they don't want to seem mean. When the caller comes a few days later, the qeustion asked previously on the telephone acts as a trigger and some ppl almost unconsciously get out their cash! Ner tried it but thats what I read somewhere....I think in a Paul McKenna article.
