Ch 10 - Sequential Persuasion Strategies Flashcards
Liking
We like the person who gave us the free item – open to persuasion
Reciprocation
Giving back – obligation – you give them something so they give you something back
Gratitude
Feel positive toward person – appreciation towards person who gave to you

That’s not all
“If you call now, you’ll get two!” Infomercials with products – more for your money – marketing strategy – no guarantee – very effective – more bang for your buck
