  1. Power of Persuasion

  2. Clear Claim State your argument. Example: I am going to try to convince you that chocolate is a healthy snack.

  3. Name and Fame Important people or experts can make your argument seem more convincing. Example: Former U.S. president Bill Clinton thinks that junk food should be taken out of vending machines.

  4. Give the Stats Facts, numbers, and information can be very convincing. Example: A Snickers bar has 280 calories and 30 grams of sugar. That’s not very healthy.

  5. Focus on Feelings Getting people to feel happy, sad, or angry can help your argument. Example: Your donation might just get this puppy off the street and into a good home.

  6. Trust Me If people believe and trust in you, you’re more likely to persuade them. Example: Believe me! I’ve been there before. I’m just like you.

  7. Urgent! Try to convince your audience that this issue is so important they must act now. Example: This is a one-time offer. You can’t get this price after today.

  8. Research Using reliable research can help your argument seem convincing. Example: A recent study found that students who watch TV during the week don’t do as well in school.
