CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background of the study

Communication is a major requirement for humans as one of the forms of interaction. When people communicate, they do so for various reasons, the four main reasons are : to inform someone of something, to get information from someone, to get someone to do something, to express one’s attitude about something (Marjolijn verspoor, 2000:16). Communication is derived from Latin word ,‟communicare‟ which means ,‟to make common‟ or to share (Pearson et al., 2003:10). It is used in the process of sending and receiving information, idea, opinion, signals or message by talking, gesturing and writing.

A good communication means a communication that contains of some

points. As Brook’s said in her book (2002:5) “Good communication means

relevant, focused, timely and readable”. It denotes that a speaker must give attention

to the particular person or group that conducts communication, so both speaker and hearer can focus to each partner. Then, relevant means appropriate topic because it is a significant thing that should be considered in order avoiding confusions during communication. While timely and readable means that a speaker is suggested to give change or time to the hearer to feel or think for a while from the backtalk and avoid the long-winded in order to keep your partners losing their interest of talking with you. Good communication is the success to reach the goal of communication.


(12)

Language, however, is being the important part of communication as a tool to achieve its goal.

The use of language is the object study of discourse analysis. This study concerns on linguistics, such as how languages used in persuading people during communication. There is an art of discourse that is Rhetoric. Keraf (2009:3) argued

“Rhetoric means the use of language as an artistic technique, both oral and written

are based on a well-structured knowledge”. Deals with it, there are two important aspects which people should to understand about rhetoric. The first is knowledge about language and its used. The Second knows the object that will be the target of

language’s user.

Persuasive is a form of rhetoric. It is a communicative act that carries out both these goals an audience that has been persuaded has understood an utterance, and believed its message. According to Muholland (1994:14) “Persuasion is a factor of ordinary everyday life, and it is what can make people feel more or less comfortable, improve or weaken cooperation between colleagues and friends, and maintain relations with family and the community”. Then, through some instruction, both direct and indirect speech people influenced to take a decision or change their though based on what the speaker wants. Hogan argued that persuasion is to provide induction of belief and values into someone self by means of influence their thought and measure through positive strategy (as cited in Abbas 2008:15)

Persuasion is commonly used in the world of marketing and politics. In political oration or campaign, persuasive is used by the speaker when conduct a


(13)

direct speech or oration to convey their idea, purpose, and belief. Moreover, persuasion is also used by marketer and advertiser to offer their product or service to the customer.

The technique of persuasion in advertisement is used to persuade consumer, so people will give attention to the products or service and interested to consume it. Advertisement is a form of using persuasive which presented attractively. According Silverblatt (2007:6) “Advertising: the sponsor of the series, Wal-Mart, appeared during the commercial breaks, promoting its stores and products”. Advertisement becomes one of the best ways to introduce company’s products. Most of products which are promoted in advertisement become familiar in the society. It is due to advertisement can be present through some method or types which effectively take people’s attention because of its performance.

Wiryawan stated ”There are two types of advertising, which is released with

no mass media through publishing: direct marketing and relation media such as brochure, flyer, leaflet, direct mail, email, and poster. The line advertisement which is released through mass media such as television, newspaper, magazine, radio, billboard and any types of commission based media (as cited in A’yun, 2008:10). It shows that advertisements have a looseness to be widespread through various mass media based on the advertiser’s need.

In this globalization era, mass media become popular as an effective way to be in touch with public. Television is one of helpful communication media which presented any kind of information, news, entertainments such as film, music, and


(14)

education. Television has superiority in the sound and picture which the public more interest in this media so they can receive the information optimally. It is different with magazine, leaflet, street banner and other print media that only focus on the language or pictures. By this fact, television becomes a popular medium in every country included Indonesia.

By the television media, many products show their own advertisement. Therefore, MNC media is one of the channel television corporate in Indonesia has an event form to appreciated advertisements in television media. MNC Media in collaboration with Roy Morgan, an independent survey agency conducted a poll of Indonesian society-related advertisings to be top of mind. For this event, MNC Media takes the standpoint of the communicative advertising messages, which involves the society or consumer as a judge.Indonesian Bright Awards 2016 will pass the voting period from 5 February to 4 March 2016 to the advertisements selected poll results. Nine categories of advertisements that are contested include: Jingle Advertisement, Tagline advertisement, Drama Scene advertisement, Funny Advertisement, Best star men, Best star women , Best star kids , Best star couple , and Best corporate Advertisement.

This research deals with persuasive technique which is used in the winner of Indonesian Bright Awards 2016. From the nine categories of the event, the writer choose four advertisements. First, Indomie advertisement as the best jingle in this awards. Second, Dancow milk advertisement as the best tagline advertisement. Third, Beng-beng advertisement as the best drama advertisement. Fourth, Djarum 76 advertisement. The reasons for choosing that advertisements because from nine


(15)

advertisements there are four category of best advertisements and five category of best actors. Therefore, only four advertisements than can analyzed. Another reason the writer used the persuasion technique because it is important when we know that the development of Indonesian products is increasing. One of the strategies to increase Indonesian product selling is making a persuasive advertisements. Indonesian Bright Awards Advertisements is a great event to stimulate the development of advertising in Indonesia.

In this study examines the modes and the techniques by Indomie advertisement, Dancow milk advertisement, Beng-beng advertisement and Djarum 76 advertisement. Modes itself means a mode that used in the advertisements like pictures, jingle, speech and writing. Technique itself means the techniques in order to catch the mean of persuasion. Techniques of persuasion are rationalization, identification, suggestion, conformity, compensation, projection, and displacement (Keraf 2009).

CHAPTER II

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1. Theoritical Framework

2.1.1 Discourse Analysis

Discourse analysis is a study of language which is used and arranged inside the cultural and political context as a place where the discourse occurs. It concerns to the how people use language in text and context; what people actual utterances and try to figure out the processes that make those utterances appears. Deal with it, Discourse Study analyzing written, vocal, or sign language use or any significant

semiotic event. According to Daymon and Holloway (2002:141)” discourse

analysis appreciates the language or discourse, is not simply a device for producing and transmitting meaning. It is a strategy which people use purposefully to try to

create a particular effect”.

Discourse analysis takes a significant role in human communication since it is not only focuses on the language and the meaning but deeply to the some elements in communication, such as how, who, what, and when the language is used. It is in line with Brown and Yule (1983:1) who argued Discourse analysis is committed to an investigation of what and how that language is used for.

Kinneavy had group the discourse into four types, they are: Expressive discourse, referential discourse, literary discourse and persuasive discourse (As cite at Abbas 2008:23). Expressive discourse means a type of discourse in which language is used as a simple vehicle for expression of some personality’s aspect by


(19)

the encoder (the person who encodes the message). Referential discourse is a type of discourse in which the use of language stresses the ability of language to designate or reproduce reality, in a manner of speaking. Then literary discourse refers to the types of discourse in which the text or the product or the work itself is the focus of the process as worthy of being appreciated in its own right. The last is persuasive discourse which focused primarily on the decoder that is the other person involved in the process or the receiver of the message. In this type, what essential is the encoder, reality, and language itself all become instrument of the achievement of some practical effects in the decoder. In this research, persuasive discourse is the

main focus of the writer’s discussion. Persuasive almost found in advertisement as an effective way to introduce product and service to the costumer. While creating an advertisement, advertiser should use a correct technique to attract the customer’s intention, remember there are a lot of product which also promotes through

television’s commercial. 2.1.2 Advertisement

Advertisement is a part of discourse study which is greatly influence modern society. Advertisement is visible on TV which can use picture, music and language either singly or combination. Through television medium, advertisement is very effective since it is more appealing eye catching, and all designs to elicit an emoticon response. In society, advertisement becomes the popular promotion’s strategy which talked by all people. It is because its ability to reach the broad range.


(20)

Advertisement can be defined as one of communication’s forms which consist of written and oral language to deliver information or messages. It is used by advertiser to introduce some products and service or promote someone to the

public. According to Brochand that “Advertising is one of the elements of the communication strategy of a brand, together with other instruments such as public relations, sales force, merchandising, promotions, sponsorship and direct marketing”. In others word, advertisement is a way to convey means by advertiser to the customer or audience use some device. In modern society, advertisement is everywhere. In the street, shop, television, even on the label of something we are using. Advertising use fiction, world play, compressed story-telling, stylized acting, photography, cartoons, puns and rhythms in way which are often memorable, enjoyable and amusing (Cook, 2001:3).

As a persuasive media, advertisements play a key role to influence the society by using a variety of language and image. Arens (2006:7) defined Advertising as the structured and composed non-personal communication of information, usually paid for and persuasive in nature, about products (goods, services and ideas) by identified sponsors through various media. In his definition,

the words ,‟paid” and ,‟non-personal‟ bring the fact that an advertisement generally should be bought because of its characteristic that invoke mass media (television, radio, magazine, etcetera). Although advertisement can present broadly, it does not guarantee a direct feedback from receiver. So, advertiser must consider the language, picture and other element in their advertisement to make sure the message can be deliver appropriately. In short, advertising is a strategic discourse which has


(21)

a persuasive purpose in the form of linguistic and non-linguistic elements form and context.

To persuade the viewers, an advertising appeal should be considered by the advertisers. It is an approach to excite people interest toward their products. Blech (in Morisan, 2003:344) had categorize the advertising appeal into six aspects, they are:

1. Feature Appeal

It emphasize to the certain quality or characteristic of the products. It gives more information to the viewer about the superiority of the product’s feature.

2. Competitive advantage

An advertisement that has this approach usually is presented by comparing the

advertiser’s product with other competitive product either directly or indirectly. They claim that their product is better than others.

3. Favorable price appeal

This approach focus on how advertiser creates a commercial which attract people

through product’s price. The message of this advertisement contains more information about the special offering or the low price of products.

4. News Appeal

It is an advertisement which uses mass media to announce the product and its development. It may useful for a company who has repaired or modified their product becomes news and they will promote it to the people.


(22)

5. Popularity Appeal

The main purpose of this approach is to show the quality of product. In advertisement, the advertiser uses some figures or experts to suggest people buy or use the product.

2.1.3 Guy Cook’s Theory of Advertising as Discourse

Discourse of advertisement means explore the language usages in linguistic aspect, but it more complex since music and picture take a part on advertisement. Discourse and advertisement are two components which relate each other. Cook (2001:3) argued that Discourse analysis is not only focus on language alone but also the context of communication: who is communicating with whom and why, in what society and situation, through what medium, how different types and acts of communication evolved and their relationship to each other.

Winardi (1989, 363-364) explained that communication process in the field of advertisement starts from the advertiser as the communication source conveys messages which are intended to be delivered to the viewer through any kinds of media in the form of words and pictures. So, Discourse study examines the elements of advertisement based on the text and context together.


(23)

2.1.4 Modes of Advertisement

In his book titled, “The Discourse of Advertising”, Cook’s (2001:4)

introduced his notion of modes of communication in advertisement as below : A. Pictures

Pictures, however, do far more than carry a story (Cook, 2001:54). Pictures in advertisement present a story which is shorted through scene by scene. Advertisers rely more upon the picture and many advertisements create powerful message almost entirely through picture, music and virtually language-free. Picture as visual element in advertising is arranged in such a manner to reach the success of delivering message. Every scene in advertisement means the series of story where the company product ongoing promoted. Therefore, through the scenes, the advertiser hopes it can represent the company to introduce their product. Picture,

as Cook’s theory may be fragments of story, motion, and cartoon, photographic:

broad panoramic of some location, an interior shots or exterior shots, even extreme shots of the product.

B. Music

Music has discrete units which can be combined with different ways along a time-line (melody). For individual, or for a group, a given piece of music may evoke a certain mood, or associate with quite specific places, event and images (Cook, 2001: 50). In a commercial field, music may represent the company and product characteristic which is known as jingle. Jingle is a short tune contains of some meaningful lyrics or slogan which explicitly promote a hook product. It is


(24)

purposely created for commercial business from a brand. Jingle brings a simple message which plays in certain melody and rhythm.

C. Speech and Writing

Language (speech and writing), music and picture are elements that almost found on advertisement. As each function, they give effect that advertisement in this time looks more skillful, clever and amusing. Besides, advertiser belief that the greater power of speech is provided by the tendency in television to use writing for advertisement’s message. The message can be present through slogan, jargon which carried the point of the product or service. Slogan is a brief sentence or phrase that becomes the identity of a product as like as jingle. Additionally, on television, picture move, music plays and language comes in changing combinations of speech, song and writing (Cook, 1992:42). It means that those elements above united into a commercial where television as the medium to present it. Speech and writing play more in advertising as a verbal communication which bring a product’s message. In this research, speech and writing mean language which appears within

advertisement’s performance.

2.1.5 Persuasive

Study language means learning the art or style of language. Here, Keraf (2004:118) stated that Persuasive is a verbal art that purposely convince someone

to obey what the speaker’s said in this moment or in the present time. It means that the purpose of persuasion is the speaker tries to persuade the listener to act something with no violence and coercion. A persuader should make their object


(25)

believe that they are trusted agent. So, from that belief people will decide a right decision by their consciousness.

Persuasion held conformity or agreement through reliance. Bormann (1991:209) argued that persuasion is an effort to change someone’s convince, getting friends, influence somebody, and sells idea or product. It is clear that persuasion refers to the attempts of affecting people by means to ask them follow

what the persuader’s said without coercion. A persuasion advertisement is beneficial way especially for business’s world. By the advertisement, people are tended to the certain product or service until they know, excited, eager to possess the product or service which is offered by the company. A good advertisement is a persuasion that able to stimulate consumer buy or use the product.

Related to the advertisement as the main focus of this research, persuasive used to move people, try to magnetize people’s interest, and then realize them that

they need the product. As Lakhani (2005:16) said “Persuasion is about creating an environment that lets two or more people find common ground and belief”.

Persuasion is not only about selling, but also about gaining agreement and support. Finally, persuasion is hoped can change people’s responses.

2.1.6 Persuasion Process

To catch the success of a persuasion, it is important to remember the main factor of persuasion process. According to Renkema (1993:128), there are four elements of persuasion process, they are; source, channel, message, and receiver.


(26)

The demands made on the source have to do with the credibility and what is called the likeability (sympathy/antipathy/like dislike) the source evokes. Source is the sender of an information or message. In advertising, source is a factor that caused the product can be trusted or not, and people also know the quality of a product slightly through its source. The source is related to the credibility of a company, how the reputable of the source in society is and how does the response of consumer about the product up till now.

B. Message

Here, message means the content of an advertisement. May it is the advantage of a products or superiority. Sometimes, an advertiser also put the reason why does the product is produced which is presented through language or pictures. According to Pearson et al. (2003:17) that ,‟message is the verbal and nonverbal form of idea, thought, or feeling that one person (the source) wishes to communicate

to another person or group of people (the receiver)‟. Message can be form of

symbols, word, facial expression, gesture, touch, tone of voice, etc. Moreover, a

commercial’s message can be placed in the beginning, middle or the end of

advertisement. It depends on the creativity of advertisers. C. Channel

It is the tools which transferring message from the source to the receiver. It will determine whether an advertisement can widespread effectively or not. There are various channels such as magazine, television, radio, newspaper, leaflet, banner, and etcetera. Smartfren Telkom, Inc. is developing company in Indonesia, to make


(27)

their product is known by Indonesian people, they introduce products through television, radio, street banner, internet. So, the product will be used in society.

D. Receiver

The receiver refers to the audiences, viewers, or the target of advertisement. It cannot be ignored that give a big intention the receiver is a main point of persuasion process. The presenters or persuaders have to understand their

consumers and their audiences or hearer or consumer’s background of knowledge. By knowing consumer’s background, the advertiser can make a strategy how to

attract people’s attention.

2.1.7 The Basic of Persuasion

In delivering the principles of persuasive, Aristotle in Keraf (1989: 121) stated that there are three principles of persuasion. First, is the speaker’s character and credibility, communications will take place a speaker expectation, if the audience has recognized him or her as the one who has a good character. This way is usually called with personal character. Here, a good character can be determined through attitude, diction, and language style of the figure in advertisement. Almost advertisers use famous actress to convince people that their products is bonafide and have a good quality. Second is a skill of speakers in controlling the audience’s emotional. It means that, the speaker has performance in debasing or extinguishes the audience’s sentiment and emotion. The emotion may not be inspired extremely, so that the audience does not have a chance to think or appreciating the problem. This ability to control emotion defined as a power of inflaming viewer’s


(28)

enthusiasm, and gives them a chance to think and lets them realize the condition as

what the speaker’s advice and together reaching an agreement. So, the ability to

control people’s emotion is not the main purpose of persuasion. It is just the way to stimulate people, brings them into certain comfort condition where persuasion will be held. The last is showing evident. Beside the important of control emotion, aspeaker or persuader must able to provide some evident about their products. This evident is needed as a guarantee and to build a confident for conducting persuasion. So, by showing the evident and inflaming the people’s emotion, persuader is easier to catch the purpose of persuasion.

2.1.8 Techniques of Persuasion

As a method to persuade people, persuasive should apply techniques in order to catch the mean of persuasion. Techniques of persuasion are rationalization, identification, suggestion, conformity, compensation, projection, and displacement (Keraf 2009:124-131).

A. Rationalization

It is the use of basic mind process to give a justification for a certain problem. This technique used to convince the customer about their product through some statements. Advertiser or presenter need know about the customer’s belief, attitude and what they need. So, by knowing those things, the advertisement can give statements that prove and justify the quality of product.


(29)

B. Identification

Identification means recognized the circumstances. The advertisers have to analyze the consumers and the situation accurately. Whether they are adult, teenager, children, even identify their job, businessmen, student, teacher, and etcetera. This technique is important for advertiser because they will be able to promote the products easily. Persuasion tries to avoid conflicts situation and doubtfulness, and by identifying the consumers with their situations, it will make this persuasion runs well.

C. Suggestion

Suggestion is an attempt to persuade people. Suggestion used by the advertiser to influence them, thereby they can receive the advertiser’s conviction. The form of suggestion usually is given by words or speech. The implementation of this technique can be seen by a marketer who promotes his product to the customers with a powerful voice, through this way the customer hoped can give attention to him and intended to buy the products.

D. Conformity

It is a conforming act to something that has been intended or to make something is similar with the others. In advertisement, this technique is applied to make the consumer convince with the product. The advertiser will adapt his or her self with people as the object of persuasive. This technique of conformity will present more to make the consumer convince that the product suitable for the


(30)

advertiser and consumer as the same creature. In other word, the advertiser will present something which is suitable with the people want.

E. Compensation

Compensation is an act or the result of an effort to find a substitution thing which is un-acceptable. This effort arises from the frustration of some previous situations.

2.2 Previous Study

In conducting this research, the writer also influenced by the former researcher who had the same theme in their research. First is Fakrudin Abbas from State Islamic University of Malang (2008), he conducted a research titled “The Use of Persuasive Technique by Barack Obama in His Political Speeches In The 2008 Usa Presidential Primaries”. The data were Barack Obama’s utterances containing persuasion which were observed from his speeches within USA Presidential Primaries of Democrat party that delivered from 5th 2008 up to 24th February 2008. This research was designed by using descriptive qualitative method. In addition, the approach for analyzing the technique of persuasion was based on the Gorys Keraf’s theory of persuasion.

Second researcher is Marsella Yeanette Hatane, student of Petra Christian

University Surabaya. She conducted a research titled “The Persuasive Strategies

Used on the Phone by Male and Female Insurance Salespeople in Surabaya”. This research is about the analysis of persuasive strategies used by the male and female salespeople of the insurance companies Surabaya, they are: AXA, Prudential, Sequislife, Sunlife, and Manulife. The researcher focuses on the differences of male and female marketer in persuading people by phone. The researcher uses thirty woman and man salespeople telephone record of persuasive conversation as her data. In this research, the researcher is used Kotler Armstrong’s (2004) and

Bender’s (1980) theory to analyze the selling process and persuasive strategy through qualitative approach.


(32)

The third related researcher is Zainiah A’yun (2008), the student of State

Islamic University of Malang where did a research titled “Techniques of Persuasion

Used in Advertisements Presented in Sctv”. Her research is about the persuasion technique in television advertisement especially SCTV. The researcher used Gorys Keraf and Renkema theory. Here, A’yun analyzed some product such as, Honda Vario, Nokia phone, UC 1000 mg of Vitamin C Health Drink and she limited the advertisement of those products just in one television station that SCTV. The researcher chooses those advertisements because there is some artist which is present in every advertisement. Those are Agnes Monica, Daniel Mananta, Zulaikha Rivera, and foreign people. Descriptive qualitative approach also applied by this researcher to analyze her data. The researcher argued that by appearing or presenting some artists in advertisement, people will give more their interesting to watch even consume the product or services which is offered through the advertisement.

The fourth is Albert (2014) in his journal examines the discourse function of rhetoric and lexicalisation in insurance advertising discourse in the Nigerian print

media. It investigates how they are used as part of the advertisers’ strategies of

persuasion. The analysis reveals that the lexical choice of the advertisers contained a dominant use of skill-indicative lexical items which portrayed the insurance companies as experts in their field.

In persuasive strategy there are various way to apply. For example in the journal by Janae Masnovi (2013). He examinepersuasive strategies and hats off for cancer donations by aristotle theory. There are three persuasive strategy by aristotle


(33)

theory : pathos, ethos and logos. In his journal, he aim to show the respons from some respondents about what strategy that used in hats off for cancer donations advertisement. The result shows that 79% of respondents felt that the advertisement using pathos was most effective while 19% said logos and 2% said ethos. Braj mohan (2013) in his journal also examine persuasive strategies in religious oratory used aristotle theory. In this journal, the researcher aims at identifying the persuasive strategies that religious orators use to persuade their audience and win huge following. The result shows religious rhetoric relies more upon ethos and pathos than upon logos. For creating positive persuasive Ethos (trustworthiness), religious orators quote use the strategies like quoting from authentic sources, mentioning trustworthy people, and showing religiosity and saintliness through their clothes, voice and words.

Relating to the persuasive techniques, Budiani (2014) in her thesis examines

cosmetic advertisements used Keraf’s theory. According by (Keraf 2009:124-131) the techniques of persuasion are rationalization, identification, suggestion, conformity, compensation, projection, and displacement. In this thesis, she analyze maybelline and loreal products of cosmetics and she shows the result that are the advertisement just used suggestion, rationalization, identification and conformity techniques.

The last is Sakdiyah (2014) examines persuasive techniques used by pond’s

cosmetics in television advertisement. She uses Keraf’s theory too for analyze her research. She used descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the data . The findings of the researcher showed that most of languages in advertisements used on


(34)

Pond’s cosmetics are; suggestion, rationalization, identification, projection and

compensation techniques. On the other hand, the researcher founds source and receiver techniques in Aristotle theory and also the strategy of persuasion; pathos, logos and ethos.

From the explanation of the previous researchers above, the finding of their study mainly focus on analyzing how the persuasion technique can be applied in some advertisements. They do not give some reasons what the importance of persuasive technique itself. To complete the previous study above, in the present study, the rsearcher analyzed more specific about persuasion technique used in the winner of Indonesian Bright Awards Advertisements 2016.

Finally, this present research focus not only on advertisement in common but also on the winner of the advertisement.
