Ideology Driven Advertising
In modern-day society, the way that we advertise is remarkably different from the traditional ways of marketing we have seen in the past. With the prevalence of technology and the internet, ads have become more complex, exploiting both logic and emotion. To gain an effective understanding of the new age of advertising, it is essential to identify and understand the role played by ideology in marketing, as well as its effects on society.
Ideology is a set of beliefs and attitudes. It is a set of ideas shared by an individual or a group and it is the core of advertising that drives our message and sends a particular message to our consumers. Ideology-driven ads are unique because of the way they are presented. They project a particular image of our clients and products, and can evoke a certain response from viewers.
One of the most powerful tools used to create ideology-driven advertising is the use of celebrity endorsements and spokespersons. We can use the power of an influential figure to relate to a particular audience and deliver a message with authority. The public also often sees a particular product or service as being of better quality when promoted by a celebrity. It also allows us to target a certain demographic based on the personality and background of the spokesperson we use. This is effective because viewers have a tendency to connect with the message better when it comes from someone they relate to.
We can also use the power of storytelling to persuade viewers to take certain actions. People are more likely to remember tales that have themes of inspiration and venture which evoke emotions and compel people towards something. Stories can also be used to illustrate our message in a more vivid manner, and can allow us to reach a certain demographic when used in conjunction with a certain spokesperson.
Finally, we can use persuasive language and rhetoric to further encourage the viewers to take action. We need to make sure that the words we use are those that are inspirational and powerful and encourage people to purchase the product or service we are representing. The language used needs to fit the demographic we are trying to reach, while still being relatable to all viewers.
Ideology driven advertising is powerful and effective, allowing us to promote our clients’ products and services while having an impact on the audience. We can use emotion, storytelling, and persuasive language to drive our messages home, and create ads that capture the essence of not only the brand or product, but the people behind it.
