Rhetorical Device: Persuade

The ad is making the argument that “AptDeco is the easiest way to buy & sell furniture”. The intended audience is people who want to buy or sell pre-owned items. They are using the following strategies to convince the audience: free to list, free pick-up, no home visits, faster sold (in 6 days), and customer reviews.
The data presented is not reliable. How did they conclude that it is the easiest way to sell or buy items? What statistic did they use to bring that conclusion? Where can I find the customers’ reviews? Who is Emma S.? I think the ad is not effective because they do not use facts, real furniture, and real numbers to persuade the audience.
