When it comes to the topic of commercials, most of us readily agree that commercials are irritating. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the purpose of the commercial. Whereas some are convinced that commercials are meaningless, others maintain that commercials tell a story. Effective commercials are repetitive and illustrate a story. Marketers use rhetoric marketing, the art of persuasive speaking and writing, when persuading an audience to buy a product. Rhetoric marketing is especially effective through the illustration of a story. It is effective because the marketer is able to relate to the consumer with a story or message. Advertisers also use the appeals of logic, credibility, and emotions to intrigue interest in a company. Coca-Cola’s advertisement, “Falling,” depicts the product as a confidence building companion suitable for young love through a series of logical and emotional appeals that visibly promotes the brand’s credibility.

Everyone is always trying to convince each other by using different techniques to sell an idea or a thing. In order to sell and persuade an idea or thing, people have to tell it to an audience by using advertising and rhetorical strategies. Rhetoric is to transform and change a person’s perspective and truly convince them of something. An efficient way that marketers convince through rhetorical strategies is through advertising.

The main purpose of commercials and advertisements is to persuade the viewer to purchase the product that is advertised, but not all commercials are successful in this endeavor. Companies, such as Budweiser and Kleenex, appeal to the viewers’ ethos, logos, and pathos in order to influence them to buy the advertised product(s). In order to appeal to each of the categories, companies use different tactics to catch viewers’ attention. The use of ethos, logos, and pathos can make or break an advertisement based on how it is being used.
There are millions of commercials. All of them have different audience and purpose. Advertisement maker tries to convey audience to look at their point of view, which can be political, social or convincing them to buy their product instead of others. According to the article “Rhetoric and Advertising” more than 2,000 years ago the Aristotle came up with three different categories to describe how people use rhetoric to persuade people: ethos, pathos and logos. Each of these terms describes different way to try to reach an audience and convince them to agree with you. Pathos is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. Logos is an appeal to logic, and is a way of persuading an audience by reason. Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader. Many ad makers use 2 of 3 techniques in their ad. Commercial maker uses logos and ethos a lot while making a commercial. For example, Luna commercial. Luna is a carpeting company who installs new carpet in houses at the discounted prices. They always have a promotions going on which includes get carpet in 2 rooms and get the 3rd one for free, by doing this they are attracting customers, this is example of ethos.

Advertisers around the world face one of their biggest challenges today which is to be able to break through the massive amount of commercials and advertisements that people see each day. The average person is opportuned to see about 2,500 advertisements each day. These advertisements can be from a commercial about a detergent that makes your cloth smell really good after washing it to another commercial that is about people seeing you as a celebrity because you are driving a certain brand of vehicle. So how can these advertisers differentiate themselves from the other commercials that you see everyday? They simply use sex. Sex in advertising can be defined as the use of any type of sexual imagery to draw the interest of the consumer to buying a particular product or service.
With more and more people being attached to TV shows, movies and technology than ever before, product placement for companies has begun to play a bigger role in their respective advertisement strategies to consumers. A company will often pay a fee to have their product used, demonstrated, or meaningfully presented in a show or movie. Companies are in hope that viewers will take note of the products displayed in the movie or show and think more strongly about using the product themselves. Awareness in product placement began in the early nineteenth century, when brands and products were seen implanted into the narration of novels and has only develop more of an progressively popular area of emphasis (Gurevitch, 2010). The romantic drama “The Longest Ride” is a movie about a cowboy who is a professional bull rider, who falls in love with a college girl, in which they both give up their dreams to make their relationship work.
This brings me onto the next subject, appeals. Appeals are relating the audience with the product with a story and emotions. The positioning of the advertisements has to be put in spots where they will appeal to a certain audience. 40-50 year old males, teenagers etc. The can be a change from ugly to beautiful miraculously which would appeal to teenagers because at their age they are self-conscious. Statistics are also used to appeal to the audience. If the public hears statistics they are instantly drawn in. A perfect example of appealing to an audience is the notorious Nescafe advertisement. This consists of a man and woman who meet each other over a cup of Nescafe. There is emotion involved and this draws the audience in. There is a sequence of ads in this story and the audience is drawn in so much that when there is the nest sequence they are practically glued to the television to know how it ends. In thee and they get married, Of course every advertisement includes a cup of Nescafe but that’s what it’s there for
Advertisements are used and can be located almost everywhere. Advertisements are found in magazines, television, and also the internet. Advertisements are commonly used to draw the attention of consumers and persuade them to buy and use their product or get them to do an act supported by that company. Advertisements also have a targeted audience as well. Certain groups will buy certain products so companies will attempt to push their product at the consumer who is interested in their product. For example Michael Jordan’s Coke advertisement “Can’t Beat the Real Thing.” Contained many examples of advertisement techniques like testimonial, transfer, and image. This ad has appeared in the 1991 issue of the Times magazine.
Different strategies are used in all advertisements. Every aspect of the advertisement is strategically planned to appeal to the audience. For example, an advertisement that does a great job of using sex appeal to reach its audience is “Carl’s Jr all natural burger”. This ad appeared during the super bowl forty-nine, and it was a big hit. The ad features ,22-year-old model buxom, Charlotte McKinney. Throughout the video it shows her walking through the town and appearing as if she is nude. She gets all the attention from the guys in the town as she saunters past. in one scene there’s a man reaching for a tomato as she walks by, she turns around and gives him a flirty look and it emerges as if he is grasping her gluteus. At the end she appears in a bikini nearly nude “I love going all natural,” she purrs, opening wide to take a bite out of a big, juicy, “all natural” hamburger. Advertising appeals aim to influence the way consumers view themselves and how buying certain products can prove to be beneficial for them.
People who make advertisements for companies work really hard to make a unique advertisement that is different than other companies, that are selling related products. It could take months to make an ad to satisfy the companies expectation for what they expect in their advertisement and hoping that they can convince the readers the buy the product, they focus on the small details to make an ad unique compared to other advertisement. People are blasted with myriad amount of advertisements, but what captures their attention is something they could relate to, something that is pointed to them and something that isn’t common to what they see in everyday ads. Advertisers want to capture the attention their audiences by the simplicity, color scheme and using rhetorical methods such as pathos, ethos and logos. The “Don’t Drink and Drive” ad talks about crucial issue that could take someone’s life away, and was published by BMW and has all three rhetorical methods to make a miraculous advertisement.
