No, advertising is not a waste of money.

1. First of all, it helps people to come to know about the new product launch in the market.
2. Advertisement also educate people, by giving various information about the products. If anybody don't want to buy the products, it doesn't matter instead he is aware of the new product.
3. Advertisement also increase the sale of the products.
4. Without advertisement, even the best products would remain unknown.
5. By advertisement we can also come to know quality of the products.

Thanks.

Hi dears.

Advertisement is waste of resources. It is totally a business policy. COMPANIES use more money on advertisement and they recover it by adding it over the price of product. If companies don't show the add that they can sell their product in cheaper price. People aware about the product and they can, but they can know with other sources also. Due to negative things advertised by celebrities, like Blenders pride, mc dwells no 1, royal stag. All are alcohol and the followers of those celebrities may attract to those things.

Good morning everyone!

In my sight, "Advertising is not a waste of resource".

What advertising means, is something and everything of promoting a product to the potential and mass audiences in a layman perspective. But it is a huge concept, not just a product can be marketed, resources too.

Consider Banas factory, a leading manufacturer and supplier of milk made products to "Amul", they market their resources i.e. "supply chain management", to the large audiences.

Now, the question arises - if one proposed advertising is a waste, then how it is plausible to communicate your product to your customers?

Advertising is completely a boon, it is a platform where one can segment mass, selective, and niche customers in just a span of time.

Advertising is the resource, by which one can convert a customer to the consumer.

Advertising has many faces, if one talk about a peculiar promotion, that too plunged in the advertising community.

It is one prerogative, to which medium they choose. It is due to advertising, one can expand, diversify their declining product, sales, innovation and invention.

Thank you.

Hi,

In my opinion advertisement has some advantages and disadvantages:

Advantages are: we can get to know about the product.

The uses of the product, its benefits etc. And also the importance is also known to us.

We can get to know about different brands like coming to dresses, shirts, latest trends etc.

Disadvantages: we get attracted to what is shown and think to buy it.

We do not decide what is the use of it.

We cannot know about the quality of the products shown.

We buy many beauty products shown in the ads like creams, cosmetics etc without knowing the value and benefits of it and suffer due to it.

Therefore, it is our responsibility ie consumer to choose a product carefully before buying it so that it can reduce the harmful effects and also loss to the consumers due to it. And also they get to know about the quality of the product.

The real purpose of advertising is to inform the consumers and customers about the new products. I feel that they are necessary because it helps to educate the public and create awareness regarding the new products. Though it is a source of revenue for publishers, advertising is needed. It employs an openly sponsored non-personal message to promote or sell a product, service or an idea. Advertisements are indirectly connected to the public because of these advertisements we can know about some particular things like new gadgets, new products etc. Advertising also helps the government to about the problems of the country and It can indirectly be called as the backbone of the country. Finally, I think that they are not a waste of resources and time.

For a company, advertising is not a waste of money since it has a larger opportunity to gain the particular type of attention of the customer and also is the best way to reach the more customer. Initially, it has spent larger money for advertising but it gives benefit for a long time and this spent money is supposed as an investment for a company.

At the India level, India is a fastest growing economy and being a 3rd largest economy of the world in GDP terms and it is a country having 2nd largest population in the world. So for any company India is being a better market to gain profits by reaching more and more customer through advertising.

But in another hand, I am not supporting to fake advertising, taking a small instance- I could not understand that Fair Lovely, a fairness cream how can help a people to achieve success in the life or availed a greater job opportunities, the are many people who got huge success in the life without Fair lovely cream and this is fact that this is not a right manner of advertising.

So I think advertising has always beneficial for the company as well as to the customer if done in truly and right manners.

Can't answer. As ever coin has 2 sides. Likewise. Advertisement sometimes is a boon or a curse. It helps people to get the proper knowledge. But at the same time, innocent people gets bullied by false advertisement. So can't comment.
