When consumers are motivated to approach with certainty and to be highly confident that they are buying the best brand, factual appeals, logical argument, and comparative advertising can be highly effective. When consumers are motivated to impress others, image appeals and celebrity advertising can be very persuasive. When consumers are motivated to feel protected, safe, or comfortable with themselves, authority figures and expert endorsers can be particularly effective. When consumers are motivated to seek pleasure or enjoyment, promotion-focused hedonic appeals are appropriate. Conversely, when consumers are motivated to avoid uncertainly, mystery ads, surprise, and confusion can be very useful. When consumers wish to avoid conveying a negative impression of themselves to others, nerd alert ads should be used. When consumers are concerned about avoiding danger in all of its many forms, fear appeals can be quite effective. Finally, when consumers are motivated to avoid pain or discomfort, prevention-focused hedonic appeals should be used. Different types of products and consumers require different types of advertisements, and matching advertising techniques to attitude function and regulatory orientations is the key to success in advertising.
