we have already made. Exploit this to get a higher sign-up rate when soliciting charitable
donations. First, ask workmates if they think they will sponsor you on your egg-and-spoon
marathon. Later, return with the sponsorship form to those who said yes and remind them of
their earlier commitment.

Linking: We say yes more often to people we like. Obvious enough, but reasons for “linking”
can be weird. In one study, people were sent survey forms and asked to return them to a
named researcher. When the researcher gave a fake name resembling that of the subject (eg,
Cynthia Johnson is sent a survey by “Cindy Johansen”), surveys were twice as likely to be
completed. We favour people who resemble us, even if the resemblance is as minor as the
sound of their name.
