Introduction
People can forget what you did for them, but they will always remember the feeling you gave them.
Therefore, emotions are one of the key points to make the transmission of information to consumers easier and more effective.
Besides, many readers find a source not only for the Content but also because of the credibility and value of the writer because they believe in their genuine feelings gained after following the article.
So to create emotions in Content Marketing, we need to understand the types of emotions that readers often have when following articles as follows:
1) Feeling of fear
Many other emotions will bring consumers excitement when accessing information. Particularly, the feeling of fear is the emotion that you need to bring into your article so that the reader can more effectively accept the solution that you are getting.
For example, You may remember the famous campaign "No excuse - Wear a helmet" by Ogilvy & Mather Vietnam in 2007. There are many excuses for not wearing a helmet. The campaign delivered realistic and haunting footage of the consequences of not wearing a helmet in traffic, showing viewers that the accident happened to any of us.
When people are afraid, people tend to let their emotions take control and imply a desire to use a product in exchange for a sense of security. Everyone, without leaving a person, has never experienced this feeling. It is not because they want to make the right decisions, but they have to hate the consequences of making the wrong decisions.
For the use of 'Emotional fear' to not become a double-edged sword, you need to learn, research, and clarify the strengths and limitations of the product. Build content-wise that portrays your product's standout from its competitors without making the reader unsure about the quality of all the products in the market.
2) Feeling of love
Every reason for trying to keep people growing is often out of love. Love is a powerful emotion. People are willing to do anything to show their love for someone they love, in one way or another.
They always tend to share their value for things that are familiar and close, not except for the Brand (Brand).
If you build a connection between feelings of love, consumers will more easily access and absorb information in a better way. Not stopping here, the emotional factor of love also makes consumers hungry for products. Marketing effectiveness will be most evident through the continuous increase in sales.
For example: On the big holidays of the year, consumers always want to give love to the person they love most. As a result, brands are continually launching new products and advertising campaigns that emphasize emotions, making consumers spend more aggressively.
Especially on the 2012 Olympics, P&G launched a Campaign to pay tribute to the silent. Still, great mothers of Olympic athletes in particular and all mothers in the world in general. Thanks to this Campaign, P&G not only promotes an increase in sales but also builds Brand Love with a segment of mothers using diapers.
3) Feelings of pride
According to Maslow's pyramid of needs, the highest level of human beings is the need to assert themselves. They always try to show their values and their professional abilities and qualifications in return for recognition and respect from people in society.
Every activity that consumers make in their spending decisions today is what shows their self-worth in the future.
Therefore, you should promote this touchpoint to be able to optimize the consumer experience, clarify the feeling of satisfaction and pride in owning their products.
Example: Golfers often share a common interest in enjoying wine because it demonstrates their trendy, classy lifestyle, following their values. To market wine to this customer segment, you need to highlight the high quality of your product and demonstrate that using it will elevate your customers.
An example closer to life today, Apple is considered as an indispensable 'ornament' of young people in every selfie check-in on social networks. Thanks to the ownership of products from Apple, young people confidently show their stylish lifestyle.
