The Psychological Impact of Advertising on Consumer Behavior
Advertising leverages psychology to influence how people perceive brands and make purchasing decisions.
Psychological Tactics:
Scarcity: Limited availability encourages immediate action.
Social Proof: Testimonials and reviews build trust.
Emotional Appeal: Evoking emotions to create lasting impressions.
Example: Coca-Cola’s “Share a Coke” campaign personalized bottles with names, tapping into consumers’ emotions and fostering a sense of belonging.
