Transforming a brand into a socially responsible leader doesn't happen overnight by simply writing new marketing and advertising strategies. It takes effort to identify a vision that your customers will find credible and aligned with their values.
Persuasion is achieved by the speaker's personal character when the speech is so spoken as to make us think him credible.

Any good trial lawyer knows that if you've got one credible expert or scientific study, then you can let the jury decide.

To be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible; credible we must be truthful.
At the bottom, the elimination of spyware and the preservation of privacy for the consumer are critical goals if the Internet is to remain safe and reliable and credible.
It cannot be too often stressed that Israel had no credible pretext for its 2008-9 attack on Gaza, with full U.S. support and illegally using U.S. weapons.
