We’re always happy to get questions from you, and we usually answer your questions in the comments or by email. But we don’t often make videos to directly address your questions, so…
We’re going to do that today.
We got a message from Soul, someone in the PresentationExpressions community. And Soul, wrote…
“Hello,
I have a presentation about advertising and psychology and I have to not talk about it in general but choose something specific under that subject. And the presentation will be around 7-8 slides without the introduction and the sources, and I can’t use any words in those 7-8 slides, pictures only.
The problem is I don’t know what to talk about, and I dont know where to get pictures or a short video that uses psychological tricks.
Help!!!
Thank you
Regards, Soul”
Soul, thanks so much for your message.
After getting that message, I told Soul I would make a video and Soul replied that the presentation is due on Tuesday. Well, it’s Friday night here in Korea, so hopefully you’ll have enough time to get everything ready.
But I have to give you a bit of heck for starting your preparation so late.
So don’t do it again!
Anyway, watch the video for these 5 Steps:
- Step 1: Figure out who your target audience is supposed to be.
- Step 2: Choose a specific industry and find ads for that industry by Googling industry plus ads or plus print ads.
- Step 3: Choose one psychological trigger to focus on.
- Step 4: Arrange your ads in a sequence to show what the advertisers want you to notice first, second, third, etc.
- Step 5: Practice, practice, practice.

I hope that helps.
And I hope that helps other people, too.

Very nicely done, Carl. Each step with examples were very helpful. I have prepared a small film in the library to advertise one of our new services, Helpline (students call us when they don’t find a book in the stacks… we go and help them find it!) Some students don’t even know what they are doing!! I did it in Finalcut pro. I like your succinct summary at the end reenforcing your points. I hope that person produced the video. bye
Thanks Charulata! I hope Soul watches this, too! 🙂
