I taught LilyPond to users who have never programmed and do not use their keyboard much (used to GUI applications). They would never read the docs in order to understand it. But after explaining LilyPond for 30 min, they can use it and are actually excited that it works. And they were particularly excited about the text format, when realizing that this way, notes can be easily included it in other programs like LibreOffice and how flexible this is. So, to me it is a matter of personal contact. It is not convincing in seconds like advertising works (at least not for average people). But it is after some minutes of presentation.
