Subliminal Video Promoting Your Products
By Sylvia Adolvana
Let’s begin at the best place to start; the beginning.
In 1956, the whole idea of subliminal messaging began
with the famous cinema experiment conducted by James
Vicary. He claimed to have influenced movie-goer’s buying
habits with the use of subliminal video he had placed
into the movie reels.
Using this example is quite pointless now, because
in 1962, Vicary came forward and admitted that he had
fabricated the whole experiment. Not only did he falsify
the results, but the entire "mind control"
experiment was a hoax.
What about subliminal Cd and MP3 tapes? They must work,
right? Actually the evidence that supports subliminal
audio tapes is even less conclusive than for subliminal
video ads.
Listening To Personal Development Messages
One specific experiment involved participants who listened
to personal development messages for thirty days, and
at the end of thirty days their progress was reviewed.
It was concluded that there was no real difference in
the individual’s attitudes or behaviors.
It appears that the results for audio messages tend
to mirror those for video. There is not much more evidence
that subliminal messages in any form actually do what
they say they can do, and yet the companies and sales
people still try to make you think otherwise.
Clear Guidelines For Successful Subliminal Advertising
Of course there have been some positive results, so
what about those? It’s not all smoke and mirrors or
even doom and gloom for sublimated messaging. There
have been a few small experiments that have yielded
positive results, but there are some clear guidelines
on how to be successful when targeting subliminal messages
to consumers.
It is the meaning in the message that is important
and should be limited to just a single word. Phrases,
sentences and complex statements are simply lost; a
repeating image or word is the most effective.
Targeting Attitude Of Consumer
The biggest influence on an individual is not the subliminal
message itself, but the attitude of the consumer. It
has been found that subliminal messages that target
a person’s current state are much more effective than
general messages.
An example would be someone who is thirsty. This person
will be more influenced by a message for a drink than
someone who isn’t thirsty at all. What this means is
that if you are already mentally prepared for success,
then self-help sublimated video and audio messages will
work.
Fast And Brief Messages
Unconscious messages exploit the idea that our mind
can process a lot more information than we truly understand.
If you are watching a subliminal video that contains
these messages, then chances are that the message will
only appear for a brief time.
This means that the messages will only be visible on
screen for a fraction or two of a second. They are fast
enough for our subconscious mind to notice them, but
far too quick for the conscious mind to notice them
at all.

More Subliminal Facts....
What are subliminals?
Subliminals are messages that are
embedded into other forms of media. It may be in a advertisement,
a movie or even on a soundtrack. The idea of the subliminal
message is that it is supposed to go unnoticed by your
conscious mind and be seen or heard by your unconscious
mind.
Then later when you went to the
store or were doing something that message supposedly
influenced you. It could influence you either positively
or even negatively. There has always been a huge amount
of controversy around the idea of subliminal advertising
or messages.
People do not want to think that
they are being unduly influenced to gravitate towards
a specific thought or product. But the reality is that
subliminal advertising is in use every single time a
commercial comes on or anyone reads a magazine.
