Chapter Objectives
When you finish this chapter you should understand why:
• The communications model identifies several important components for marketers when they try to change consumers’ attitudes toward products and services.
• The consumer who processes such a message is not necessarily the passive receiver of information marketers once believed him to be.
• Several factors influence a message source’s effectiveness.

Chapter Objectives (cont.)
• The way a marketer structures his message determines how persuasive it will be.
• Audience characteristics help to determine whether the nature of the source or the message itself will be relatively more effective.

Reciprocity
• Societies throughout the world abide by the norm of reciprocity
• the rule of reciprocity remains engaged for those we do not
know and have not met (even to those whom we do not like )
• “door-in-the-face”
• The “reciprocal concessions” tactic is a unique influence
strategy because it actually empowers the requester through
rejection!

8-6
Scarcity
• Items and opportunities appear more attractive as they become
less available
• THE DESIRABLE. First, items that are difficult to obtain are
nearly always more desirable than those that require little effort
(heuristic cue in decision making)
• THE FORBIDDEN. Desire to preserve our freedom of choice.
(we will react against that interference )
• Loss Framing
• E.g. limited edition, "deadline" technique, "limited number“,

Authority
• Legitimate authorities are extremely influential sources
• We have been raised from childhood to look to authorities for
information and guidance
• Symbols of Authority: Titles, Tailors & Tone
• Uniforms are another universally recognized symbol of
authority
• Credible Communicators (Expert power, Trustworthiness, )
![Page 8: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Commitment & Consistency
• The need for consistency (to be consistent/ to appear
consistent)
• Once an individual takes establishes a position, there is a
tendency to respond in ways that are stubbornly consistent
with it.
• Foot-in-the-door, lowball, Even a penny will help, Labeling
Tactics
• Existing Commitments & values (laddering)
• A commitment is likely to be maximally effective in producing
consistent future behavior : voluntary, active or effortful ,public

Liking
• It is hardly surprising that people prefer to say yes to those
they know and like
• Physical attractiveness - Similarity – Compliments -
Cooperation
• Tupperware’s "home party"
• Survey sender: Robert Greer - Bob Gregar while Cynthia
Johnston - Cindy Johanson.

Consensus (Social Validation)
• We can use the actions of others (“social proof”) as a means to
locate and validate correct choices
• Because the desire to choose correctly is powerful, and the
time in which to choose is forever diminishing, the tendency to
follow the crowd is both strong and widespread
• Uncertainty – similar others -
• “largest selling” or “fastest growing” in the market
• E.g. our salesmen are waiting on the phone
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>if the lines were busy, call again

Uses and Gratifications Theory
• Consumers are active, goal-directed, and draw on
mass media to satisfy needs
• Media compete with other sources of entertainment

The Source
• Source effects: the same words by different people
can have very different meanings
• A “source”often a spokesperson in an ad—may be
chosen because s/he is expert, famous, attractive, or
a “typical” consumer
• What makes a good source?
• Source credibility: a source’s perceived expertise,
objectivity, or trustworthiness
• Source attractiveness: movie star, super model
![Page 18: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Sleeper Effect
• Sometimes sources become irritating or disliked
• Sleeper effect: over time, disliked sources can still get a message across effectively
• We “forget” about negative source while changing our attitudes

Source Biases
• Consumer beliefs about product can be weakened by a source perceived to be biased
• Knowledge bias: source’s knowledge about a topic is not accurate
• Reporting bias: source has required knowledge but source’s willingness to convey it is compromised
![Page 20: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

“What Is Beautiful Is Good”
• Halo effect: people who rank high on one dimension are assumed to excel at other dimensions
• Example: good-looking people are thought to be smarter, cooler, happier
• Physically attractive source leads to attitude change
• Directs attention to marketing stimuli
• Beauty = source of information
![Page 23: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Star Power
• Celebrities as communications sources (Symbolizes important
categories such as; status, social class, gender, age, and personality
type)
• Tiger Woods—$62 million/year in endorsements!
• Famous faces capture attention and are processed more efficiently
by the brain
• Enhance company image and brand attitudes
• Celebrities embody cultural and product meanings
• Q-Score for celebrity endorsers (familiarity level & No. Favorable)
• Match-up hypothesis: celebrity’s image and that of product are similar
![Page 24: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Discussion
• Many marketers use celebrity endorsers to persuade. These spokespeople often are “cool” musicians, athletes, or stars.
• Who would overall be the most effective celebrity endorser today, and why?
• Who would be the least effective, and why?
![Page 25: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Nonhuman Endorsers
• Often, celebrities’ motives are suspect as endorsers of mismatched products
• Thus, marketers seek alternative endorsers:
• Cartoon characters
• Mascots/animals
• Avatar: cyberspace character that can be moved around in a virtual world
![Page 26: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

• Message: is it conveyed in words or pictures?
• Message issues facing a marketer
• How often should message be repeated?
• Should it draw an explicit conclusion?

Sending the Message
• Visual versus verbal communication of message
• Visual images: big emotional impact
• Verbal message: high-involvement situations
• Factual information
• More effective when reinforced by a framed
picture
• Require more frequent exposures (due to decay)

Repetition:
• Mere Exposure: People tend to like things that are more familiar to
them, even if they are not keen on them initially.
• Habituation: Consumer no longer pays attention to the stimulus
because of boredom or fatigue
• Two-factor Theory: Explains the fine line between familiarity and
boredom.
• Positive affect: Increases familiarity, reduces uncertainty
• Negative affect: Boredom increases with each exposure
![Page 32: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

One- versus Two-Sided Arguments
• One-sided: supportive arguments
• Two-sided: both positive and negative information
• Refutational argument: negative issue is raised, then dismissed
• Positive attributes should refute presented negative attributes
• Effective with well-educated and not-yet-loyal audiences
![Page 34: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Comparative Advertising
• Comparative advertising: message compares two+ recognizable brands on specific attributes• “Unlike McDonalds, all of Arby's chicken
sandwiches are made with 100% all-natural chicken”
• But, confrontational approach can result in source derogation
• An ad for a new product should not:• Merely, say it is better than leading brand• Compare itself to an obviously superior
competitor
![Page 35: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Prentice Hall, cr 2009
8-35
Emotional versus Rational Appeals• Appeal to the head or to the heart?
• Many companies use an emotional strategy when consumers do not find differences among brands• Especially brands in well-established, mature
categories (e.g., cars and greeting cards)
• Recall of ad contents tends to be better for “thinking” ads• Although conventional ad effectiveness measures
may not be entirely valid to assess emotional ads
![Page 36: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Prentice Hall, cr 2009
8-36
Sex Appeals
• Sexual appeals vary by country
• Nude models generate negative feelings/tension among same-sex consumers
• Erotic ads draw attention, but strong sexual imagery may make consumers less likely to:• Buy a product (unless product is related to sex)• Process and recall ad’s content
![Page 37: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Discussion
• Name ads that rely on sex appeal to sell products
• What benefits are communicated in the ad?
• Is the message implicit or explicit? How?

Humorous Appeals
• Different cultures have different senses of humor
• Humorous ads get attention
• They’re a source of distraction
• They inhibit counterarguing, thus increasing message acceptance
![Page 39: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Humorous Appeals (cont.)
Humor is more effective when it:
• Doesn’t “swamp” message of clearly defined brand
• Doesn’t make fun of potential consumer
• Is appropriate to product’s image
![Page 40: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Prentice Hall, cr 2009
8-40
Fear Appeals
• Emphasize negative consequences that can occur unless consumer changes behavior/attitude
• Fear is common in social marketing
• Most effective when:
• Threat is moderate
• Solution to problem is presented
• Source is highly credible
• The strongest threats are not always the most persuasive
![Page 41: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Message As Art Form
Advertisers use literary elements to communicate benefits and meaning
• Allegory: story about an abstract concept personified in a fictional character
• Metaphor: two dissimilar objects in a close relationship (“A is B”)
• Simile: compares two objects (“A is like B”)
• Resonance: play on words with pictures
![Page 42: Chapter 8 Attitude Change and Interactive Communications CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, 8e Michael Solomon](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/55142d6a550346ec488b5de8/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Forms of Story Presentation
• Lecture: speech in which the source speaks directly to the audience
• Attempts to persuade
• Cognitive responses may occur
• Drama: story that draws viewers into the action
• Characters indirectly address the audience
• Interact with each other in an imaginary setting

Sell the steak or the sizzle?
• What’s more important in an advertisement:
• What is said? or
• Who says it?
• Give examples of ads that use one strategy versus the other. What types of ads are more effective for each strategy?

Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) of Persuasion
• ELM: assumes that once consumers receive message, they begin to process it
Figure 8.5

Support for the ELM
• Variables crucial to the ELM:
• Message-processing involvement
• Argument strength
• Source characteristics
• High-involvement consumers are swayed by powerful arguments
• Low-involvement consumers are swayed by source attractiveness
