Persuasion and Advertisement Technique

Persuasion Advertisement Unit Reflection

It is always important to remember who benefits from the advertisement when you view an ad because the money may be going to a bad cause or people using that money for bad things. Ethical is a good form of persuasion because a lot of people have celebrities as someone that they look up to. If a certain celebrity that a lot of people like is advertising something and they say they use it, those people who like them would want to buy the product as well because if they use it, it must be good. A good persuasion technique would be special offer. People love sales and special deals like buy 1 get one free, or get less calories and fat but better taste. It draws a lot of people in because it’s always a good deal when you’re spending less money or something has less calories and fat but, they never give you a starting calorie number or starting fat number so you never know how many calories and fat you’re actually consuming.

Core Competency Reflection

When there was disagreement within the group, I found it helpful to discuss our ideas that the other person didn’t like and try to combine the ideas or change them a bit to something we both agreed on. I showed others that I truly valued their contributions by using their ideas in the project and combing our ideas together to make the project work. I invited my partner to share their thoughts and add to the project so they would participate. One activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was creating our own ad and being able to come up with our own product. I thought it was very fun because it also had to be set in the hunger games so being able to come up with something for the people was interesting and exciting to do.
