Advertisements are everywhere, whether it be on the walk to the park or scrolling through my Instagram feed. They control the way we think and heavily impact the way we spend money, to do that advertisers use ethos, pathos, and/ or logos. When ethos is used on an advertisement often times, celebrities are modeling with the product because people tend to trust familiar faces. When pathos is intended to be in use, the advertisement tends to target the audience’s emotions and is often a sad ad. When logos is in use, the ad states statistics because people side with factual information.

Most commercials that advertise products often throw them in the viewer’s face. They of course believe their product is the best and that people should buy it because of many of their different reasons. Commercials normally tell important information about the product, maybe how much it costs, and how someone can get their hands on it. This one is different. The Chevrolet commercial “Maddie” very effectively uses the pathos method of appeal through genre, context, and style to promote their product.

The advertisement is a way that companies use to communicate with people.

I think the overall concept of the Swiffer ads are to help people clean in the easiest way possible. I think the Swiffer company doesn 't target just one audience. A lot of times in different ads or commercials one specific audience is the target, such as men or women, or people of different races or ages. Most of the time when it comes to cleaning everyone automatically associates that with women, Swiffer does show women cleaning, but they also show men cleaning as well. I like how they go against the stereotype.

Personally, I had noticed that most ads used a combination of humor and logic to really make a person want a product. Some ads obviously show this more, some less. Two ads that I had found that worked fairly well were, Skittles “Portrait” ,and Honda “Cog”. The ad that I found that worked the best, would be Skittles “Portrait”, uses humor as the strongest benefit. In the beginning Steve Tyler walks into a room with a portrait of himself that can talk, then of which proceeds to say, “Dream on”, in different tones, until it gets so high pitched that the portrait explodes into a pile of skittles.

Whether it is a pop-up ad, flyer, billboard, or television commercial, it is inevitable to not see a single commercial as one goes about their day. Sponsors will constantly find a way to advertise their product or service, even if it is not wanted. People will go to extensive lengths to avoid watching commercials at all cost, whether they use an ad blocker or buy a subscription service, they want to evade any interruptions that may disrupt what they actually want to watch. Despite how annoying commercials can be, they are an essential aspect of a company persuading people to buy their product or service. The main way sponsors use commercials to persuade is the use of classic rhetorical appeals, such as ethos (appeal to ethics), logos (appeal to logic), and pathos (appeal to emotion).

Advertising is a form of propaganda that plays a huge role in society and is readily apparent to anyone who watches television, listens to the radio, reads newspapers, uses the internet, or looks at a billboard on the streets and buses. The effects of advertising begin the moment a child asks for a new toy seen on TV or a middle aged man decides he needs that new car. It is negatively impacting our society. To begin, the companies which make advertisements know who to aim their ads at and how to emotionally connect their product with a viewer. For example, “Studies conducted for Seventeen magazine have shown that 29 percent of adult women still buy the brand of coffee they preferred as a teenager, and 41 percent buy the same brand of mascara”
