Hello everybody.

I do not agree with Advertisement is waste of resources. According to my opinion advertisement is the best way to inform the new product and about company of the product. Through the advertisement, we know quality and price of the product.

Now we have resources for an advertisement like TV and News paper etc. These are a medium to inform the new product to us about the new useful product.

So advertisement is must important It is not waste of resources, It is use of the resources by the product.

Hello friends,

First of all we should know that what is an advertisement? It is a media to lunch something or to convey the information about the new things which are available in market and hopefully that all things get advertised are helpful in our daily life.

If the thing is not get advertised we should not get information about that thing. An advertisement is not done by investing money only it may done by people also so there is no meaning of waste.

So according to me it is not waste of resource.

Hi friends.

You all said that advertising is good or bad, I agree but everything has some vachus and vice so thats why it depends on your mentality if you think that advertising is bad because, by which, the cost of any product increases its right but if you want to purchase a good and quality product even then you will have to pay.

I would like you get an example suppose it you have a glass and it is filled half to water then anyone asked you that this glass is filled half or empty half? Some people.

Hi friends,

I think Advertising is not waste of resources, because competition in business is going on increasing. So each companies are in the need to advertise their products to the customers. And also to sustain in this competitive world companies have to improve their products on any criteria and they need to advertise their improved product to the consumers.

So, advertisements become the most important thing for all the companies to attract the new customers and to retain the existing customers.

In my opinion, advertising has both pros and cons that exist. On one side, advertisements aware the consumers about features of a newly introduced product in the market as well as it increases the revenue, profits and goodwill of the firm. At the same time advertisement helps to face today's market cut throat competition. Some ads are very useful like pulse polio, Swach Bharat Abhiyan. On the other hand, some ads mislead the customers about price and quality of products. So adv has both pros and cons.

In my opinion, Advertising is not a waste of resources. Advertising means, showing the features of a product to the customers. Advertising should be in a very attractive manner that can be easily grasped the mind of consumers. With the help of advertisements, the consumer is aware of their needs and what they want, they can also be able to differentiate the product and select the best one. But at the time of advertising customers should be aware while focusing on the features of a particular product.

In my view, advertising is not a waste of money. Because in most of the cases, the product reaches the people through advertisement. We should consider the money that we are using in the advertisement as an investment. For example, if Apple Company wants to release a new version of iPhone, how the people knows the news? Through advertisement only. On the other hand, the advertisement should be in a conscious way. The companies should not try to blame the customers with their false advertisements.

In my opinion, advertising is the waste of resource in the fast developing world, day to day busy schedule people don't have time to spend in watching advertisements in their television set rather than this they will go with the internet if they are in need to buy any product.

Wasting money and other resource while hiring expensive ambassadors or actors for advertisements all are waste.

This money can be in improving some more important sectors like education system, research sector, etc.

I don't think advertising is waste of Resources. As advertising is done to make people aware of the product that has recently been launched or the benefits of the product. But sometimes we see that in a particular advertisement lot of resources is being wasted. At one side, you are giving idea of not to waste resources and at other you are wasting too many resources to just presenting a new product. It is similar to a coin as it has to sides one benefits and another wasting of resources.

Hello friends,

Advertising is the art of drawing the attention of people, to promote the sale of a product, by using attractive pictures, slogans, or by demonstration. It has today become a highly specialized activity for creating customer awareness, increasing curiosity, co that he finally buys the product. It's influence can be gauged from the fact, that the government is also using this medium, for educating the masses on important social issues, as family planning, aids etc.
