It's funny anyway, , though, because people can't resist your charm.
This sounds a bit more natural to me.
9) Our sindicate's management is going to get our CEO to resign.
He's no match for them anymore.
10) I got my sister to assisthelp me with shooting a documentary.
Or "help me shoot a documentary."
"I got my sister" sounds informal, so it doesn't match "to assist," which sounds formal.
So you could either say, "I got my sister to assist me...", which sounds quite formal, or you could say, "I got my sister to help me," which is informal/everyday English.
She's a great producer.
