The Three Motivations Aristotle said that there are three different motivations: logical, ethical and emotional In marketing: – Logical: if you have a baby, you need baby clothes – Ethical: A good person buys this or donates towards this – Emotional: “this product will make you happy” – Most is a combination: Insurance ad (logical/emotional), beggars (ethical/emotional), charities that offer tax reductions for donations (logical/ethical). – The most powerful motivation is a combination of ALL of them, like Coca-Cola ads.
