RE: ADSactly on ADSACTLY - On Advertising - Part 2

One thing is to pass information about a business, completely another to create emotions in people and subconsciously manipulate their opinions on a massive scale as stated in the previous part which you've probably not read. You are proving the point. Thank you.
Cheers!

One thing is to pass a message, and completely another is raping people's minds with thousands, tens of thousands emotional based, desire-creating vehicles that don't even work on the conscious level of logic.

Sort:  

And you're completely missing the point that all decisions we make as people are based on emotions, while logic and reasoning remain dormant as a rationalizing mechanism.

Of course if I want to sell my services or my client's products, I will appeal to emotions, just as you are appealing to emotions in your original post.

Why do you think so many agree with you?

It's because you're presenting your opinion in a biased way, which elicits feelings of outrage and agreement with you against "Them" (whether you believe it's the Illuminati, the Rothschilds, the NWO, NSA, CIA, Chinese, or Reptilian aliens).

The reality of the situation is much more simple. Businesses and business people advertise because it brings in money. And they do it in the way that is most effective - by appealing to emotions.

Just as they have always done.
