There is a very easy way to get people to help you - touch him! People are more willing to help a stranger with an unpleasant request (for example, to look after the big dog), if at the time the request for assistance to them touched. So go and touch someone and get the assistance they deserve.

"The effect of touch on the execution of the request is traditionally tested by a small but persistent requests (fill in the form to submit fines and so on. N.). But in this experiment request was more significant. Two of the organizers of the experiment were asked to the 53 men and 67 women passers-eye on the big dog agitated ten minutes, until they go to the pharmacy, where the entrance to animals is prohibited. In this half of the cases at the time of the request the organizers to the participants of the experiment touched. The analysis showed that while 55% of touching agreed to the request, while without contact agrees to help only 35% of respondents. This result demonstrates that the touch was positively associated with the acquiescence participants in the experiment ».
