Be Persuasive
Reciprocity – If you do something for them (offer a discount, give a free sample, add in an optional extra) people are more likely to do something for you
Commitment and Consistency – If people commit in writing to an idea or goal, they are more likely to honour that commitment. So the more people type in details, the more invested they are in proceeding
Social Proof – If other people are doing it, people become much more confident that they too are doing the right thing
Authority – People will tend to obey authoritative figures. These can be classic authority figures, celebrities, or official ratings and scales
Liking – People are easily persuaded by people “just like me”, as demonstrated by the power of viral marketing
Scarcity – If something is short supply, or time-limited supply, it will generate demand and pressure to buy in case you lose out on a bargain

Be honest

Usual payment card
Usual seat etc
