When it comes to using the halo effect, you can feature well-known figures or brands which support your brand, feature a CEO who is popular in his expertise and also show how your team is involved with several charitable organizations.

#2: Storytelling can be used

As it is heard, storytelling can have an impact on the different parts of human brain and it can also give rise to emotions, particularly when the message of the story is strong and emotional. If you use the story as the basis of the ad, then the target audience is going to relate in the best way possible. There should be an incident, a rising action, some complication, a climax, a reversal, falling action and resolution to the story.

#3 Utilize Unity

In case you can remind someone of his shared identity, this will make the entire thing more persuasive. You can get people in creating something together, use familiar language and references as according to their age and situation. Shared location and ethnicity will be emphasized and there are different other factors which tend to build unity.
