The above post is full of great info.
To touch on subtle hits - try looking for the way superiors and co-workers respond to you when you’re wearing it. 1 drop may be too small of an application for you, so if you don’t see hits at 1 drop, work on finding the sweet spot which may be 2 or 3.
Try to keep note of the ‘respect’ hits. If a person’s demeanor around you was not really respectful (not in a disrespectful way, but more just neutral), watch them to see if they treat you with a higher regard. If they come to you for questions and advice, possibly expect you to take the lead on a project or group work effort, etc. I’m not sure what your work environment is like so this may not necessarily apply.
I have noticed awesome response with superiors when wearing this product. I deal with customers and vendors on a semi regular basis and sometimes have to partake in conference calls. Normally one or 2 of my superiors is in the room with me. When I do these, I tend to rock a couple drops of A314 and my superiors normally defer to me to take the lead unless they have something specific they can interject.
a314 tends to have a cumulative effect. you must try your hardest to be congruent w/ the phero sig. If you are wearing and alpha product, but not acting as an alpha, it will confuse people and they may not respond the way you’d expect. When talking with folks while wearing this, try to keep note if your body language and tone of voice. Open body language is good, as well as keeping a smile or positive look on your face when talking to people. This will in turn help you to keep congruency with the sig you’re putting off. An alpha is someone who is a leader by nature. They’re normally good spirited, don’t let the petty things effect them so much or at least don’t show it outwardly, and tend to be pretty on top of everything they’re into. If you’re not naturally like this, it can take some time to get yourself to this point. is the 200% refund legit? <- this thread gets into a discussion about ‘faking it til you make it’ While there is some good debate about the term used, the idea is that you should think and try to project yourself as the person you wish to be if you are not already. After some time you will psychologically turn yourself into this person and it will be natural for you. This should be applied in this case where you project the alpha vibe. A little way to help do this is to wear the A314 on the neck or directly below the nose. The self effects are pretty strong with this one, and I do advise you to test this. 1 drop directly beneath the nose/top of the lip is a great way to see the self effects.
Application points are also a good thing to take note of. Because you are wearing an oil based product, it is advised to wear it on the body parts that tend to hold better body heat to aid in diffusion through the room. Try to focus on pulse points (side of the neck, inner wrists, etc) as these normally have a slightly higher temperature.
If you have any other questions let us know and I’m sure someone here will be happy to chime in. There’s a lot of users who have great experience w/ this product and have TONS of information to share.
Also I would highly suggest doing a search for A314 and reading some of the reports posted in this forum and in the A314 forum so you can get a better idea as to what to look for with the hits.
