Advertisers have used various tactics to grab the attention of the audience to promote a product. One of the most frequently used tactics of marketing is the use of animals in advertisements. McCutchen (2005) suggests this tactic is common because consumers are naturally attracted to animals. Upshaw (1995) reported that consumers develop affection and emotional ties to brands that include animals in their advertisements. Chaudhuri and Holbrook (2001) suggested that these affective attachments promote greater brand commitments, and increased consumer loyalty. Edward Wilson (1984) proposed the biophilia hypothesis. The theory suggests that humans are genetically likely to attend to, be attracted by, and be drawn to other living beings such as animals. Marketers use animals that evoke loyalty, friendliness, and human-pet attachment.
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.
Budweiser is a well-known brewing company that sells its distinguished beverage, yet the company’s commercials are not typical of what one might expect in any way.

Companies are constantly looking for new strategies to leave a lasting impression on their target audience in the ever-changing advertising world. They employ various techniques to do this, including using rhetorical appeals such as ethos, pathos, and logos. Coca-Cola’s "Share a Coke" campaign, which debuted in 2013 and has since grown to be one of the brand's most effective marketing techniques, is one example of a successful marketing campaign that employed similar appeals (Glavey, 2019). These rhetorical arguments were employed by the "Share a Coke" campaign to urge its audience to buy and dispense Coca-Cola goods, nurturing a sense of community and togetherness around the brand. In this paper, I will examine how the "Share a Coke" campaign

The change in tone helps grab the viewer’s attention even more. Analyzing the level of formality, the advertisement is noticeably not formal, which in this case works due to how the advertisement is structured. Considering the advertisement and the strategies that went into creating it, the audience feels a sense of loyalty not only to the puppy and horses’ relationships but to Budweiser and their
Advertisements: Exposed When viewing advertisements, commercials, and marketing techniques in the sense of a rhetorical perspective, rhetorical strategies such as logos, pathos, and ethos heavily influence the way society decides what products they want to purchase. By using these strategies, the advertisement portrayal based on statistics, factual evidence, and emotional involvement give a sense of need and want for that product. Advertisements also make use of social norms to display various expectations among gender roles along with providing differentiation among tasks that are deemed with femininity or masculinity. Therefore, it is of the advertisers and marketing team of that product that initially have the ideas that influence
The following essay is a rhetorical analysis of the 2018 Budweiser Super Bowl commercial. The advertisement was in response to the recent natural disasters in Florida, Texas, California, and Puerto Rico. These hurricanes and floods can pollute the water and destroy water infrastructures. The commercial shows the Cartersville brewery workers converting their beer cans into water to ship out to cities in need.

Rhetorical strategies including pathos, ethos, and logos are stylistic elements often used as a persuasion technique to get an audience to either buy a product or participate in something. Advertisements almost always have at least one of these three components, and Super Bowl commercials specifically are renowned for their entertaining use of these strategies. Of the many Super Bowl commercials, two stood out to me for their in-depth use of all three of these rhetorical strategies. The first commercial combines the extreme measures taken by an overprotective dad and the new Hyundai Genesis. These two seemingly unlike ideas are brought together in a collaboration that effectively use pathos, ethos, and logos to prove the audience of their product.
These tools are utilized in the commercial for persuading the viewers of its reason, creating an image of credibility surrounding its name, as well as generating an emotional response. “Aristotle’s ‘ingredients for persuasion’ – otherwise known as ‘appeals’ – are known by the names of ethos, pathos, and logos.
Progression 2 Essay 2 Commercials are used to make the viewer want to buy the product being sold. It is no surprise that all commercials use the three fundamental rhetorical strategies of ethos, pathos, and logos to brainwash us. In this context: logos is the message conveyed, ethos is the speaker that gives credibility, and pathos is how the audience is affected. The companies that create these commercials make the audience feel as if what they have now isn't enough.

These advertisements are created in a way that capture’s the audience’s attention and makes them want to purchase the product.

For instance, McDonald’s website illustrates a vision of focus, perspectives and colors to approach the audience in a way of selling products only using three methods. These methods are logos, pathos, and ethos. Logos is an argument or form based on a logic, pathos make appeals based on emotions and ethos is the form or appeal of character or credibility.

In the 2013 Budweiser commercial, the company introduced a new feature to their already well known Clydesdale ads. The idea of an everyday American man enticed audiences of all kinds to direct their attention to their tv. The rhetorical effects of the Budweiser Clydesdale advertisement administer to the viewer's’ sympathy for family bonds by showing a loving relationship between man and horse.
