Answer 1

I believe the answer is: Personal Appeal

Personal Appeal refers to a method to appeal/influence other people that based on your personal relationship with those other people.In the scenario above, Betty is influencing her childhood friends to do something simply because of their friendship, that because the other person is willing to do so.
