You gotta go at it with a cool head so they know you're in control, then they'll at some level recognize you're not reacting angrily, you're thinking clearly and dealing out a punishment with a well-thought-out purpose.
I like to use time outs first on my young'n. Then I go to the spank as a method of last resort.

I spanked my oldest daughter once and she saw how angery I was and I scared the crap out of her and I never had to do that again as she now knew when I meant business.
