Hi friends. According to me advertising is not a waste of resource. Through advertising.
People get the knowledge as well as information about the new product and new brand which comes in a market. At home we get all information about the product, we no need to go in a market and search it out their.
Advertising is a way through which company advertise their new product and the innovation which company has done in their old one.
Advertising is a medium through which a company either its is large one or small or medium convey their message about the product and other thing which is related to the product. Advertising is a best-est way of introducing the product.
Even most of the company through advertising tell us their social services to the public.

Hi friends according to me advertisement is a medium where the product should be more marketable. And before purchased any product you should know about it properly otherwise it will be greater bad products. Thus the advertisement is a very needed think for today's world.

Good morning friends.
The advertisement is the process of the express the our product in better fashion. Advertisement is not money wasting because using this we can express information about that particular thing. It is nor mean that advertisement is used only promoting the product. Lots of other thing which in the advertising is used. For the awareness of the social message it also can be used.

You know Sony or apple or Microsoft or LG or Samsung or Cree are relatively big companies. If they hire a brand ambassador and giving them money it means they are wasting money.
I think Sony and apple are the big names rather then any brand ambassador. These both companies making the reputation of brand ambassador not the reputation of their company.
I think companies should focus on providing the solutions for person's problem. They should come up with innovative ideas to make their product reliable and cheaper.
Let me give you guys an example. Last night I just try to decide to buy led lights. While searching on Google I find so many companies. I am going to invest almost $10000 and may be I will spend this amount of money only one time in my life on lighting. So I have decided to search on Google to buy cheap and reliable lighting. I checked so many things.
The Lumens.
The price.
The Wattage.
The warranty.
There is a brand giving 10 years warranty and price is reliable. I searched more and find another brand which is relatively cheap and giving 5 years warranty. I choose the one which will give 5 years warranty and cheap. But if a brand who is giving 10 years warranty will give cheap product I will surely buy it.
I do not check who is the brand ambassador of this company. Lol. Why china is spreading all over the world. Who is the brand ambassador of China. Lol. Or are there any brand ambassador of Chinese products. No! they are focusing on one factor which is price. There are only few ppl in this world who are not price conscious. They may care about brand ambassador but most of them are price conscious.
You know what the strategy of these brands is to generate the demand of their product. But they fail to realize that there is always a demand of their product now focus on quality and price.
There are two type of ppl in this world. Those who showoff and those who do not showoff. Those who showoff buy only those product which are doing showoff and those who do not believe in showoff buy cheap and reliable product.
I can explain every thing in detail. Now days Microsoft windows is good company but when someone come up with a new product which will be relatively cheap and better then the Microsoft the ppl will surely switch towards it.
I know there are few software are there in the market and ppl are not switching towards them. Because they are not publicizing them self. If they publicize them self that our software is better then the Microsoft and the you will not face the same problems in our software which you face in Microsoft then ppl will surely move towards them. I know these relatively new operating software do not understand marketing tricks because they do not understand human nature.
Human being always search for perfection. The one who try to make his product perfect will be the best. There is always room for new ppl but if they have talent.

Hi guyz,
I read almost all the comments and most people have supported advertisement and I thought so I will go against them but the truth is advertisement plays the major role in the introduction as well as the publicity of a product without which the product may just stay in the storage itself. So I have agree with the most of you that advertisement is not a waste of resources but a boon to the media and all kind of businesses.

In my point of view, advertisement is "not waste of money", because when a product launch the market, how the people to know about the product. By the advertisement the quality and quantity of the product will reach the people. Advertisement is the best way to communicate the people.
So, the advertisement is not waste of resources.
So, the advertisement is not waste of resources.

Hi friends, I think advertising is not a waste money because they provide a very good way to know about the upcoming products. But now a days the ads were really disgusting. The ads should be meaningful. The present ads were taking a long time even to understand what the product was being advertised.

I think advertisements some what useful. Now a days for any new product advertisement is necessary. For expansion of new product sales it is very useful. In rural areas people know updated products by using it. By using it we can order anything from online by this way it reduces transportation costs.
So, advertisements are useful.
So, advertisements are useful.

Hi friends,
Most of you said that advertising is a good one. I agree that. But I want to discuss with some unknown side of advertising. I should say it is not totally good. There are lots of money are invested to advertise a product. But most of the time the quality of the product is not so good.
Nowadays advertising of a product is very plentiful in TV channels. Just we are seeing and enjoying them and we want to buy that too. But when we come to know the price of the product, it will really high. So a middle class man can't afford for this. Why these goods cost so much? We see these ads with celebrities, models, super heroes, heroines. And they are get paid lacs of lacs and crores of crores. But this is our money.
If it will be curtailed, the prices should be automatically reduced. Shouldn't they? So much of money is wasted here. We are deceived by purchasing some cheap ones. And also some big companies have shares with foreign companies. We have to be aware of this. Why should we instill that?
And one more thing, a good and quality product need not to be advertised. After you buying a product, you found that it is a very good one with best quality. Then you'll inform about this to your friends and neighbours. Here the product is automatically advertised. Because of its good quality. Apparently speaking, this is the fact. A best one needs nothing to be fame.
Conversely, ads are important in some situations. For instance, the villagers should be aware of vaccination. So ads like this by the government must be accepted. Then small businesses have to publicized. If you start a business like photocopying, browsing, tailoring, dancing, then initially you have to let people know about this.
All I want to conclude that "quality should be improved and prices should be reduced". Instead of wasting money for ads, just put them in quality and also reduce the price. Do you agree?:).

Hello everyone according to me advertisement is not bad but it provide awareness among the people for example sensodyne is latest toothpaste which proved better than other product of teeth.
For illiterates also it is good because they can see advertisement on television and can understand.
But advertisement of quality less product give bad impact and leads to opposite discussion.
