INTRODUCTION:-
Necessity is the mother of invention is an oft-quoted saying. But nowadays, a reverse of it is more true. In modern business, the invention is the mother of necessity. In this age of machinery, new things are produced every day. The market is created for these things through advertisement. Business people advertise their goods in various ways, and this spread knowledge of their goods among the customers.
ADS CREATE DEMAND:-
Through advertisements, people begin to feel a need for even those goods of which they had never heard before. Advertisement creates demand. It is the backbone of commerce and industries. No business person can stay in the business world without advertisement. A successful businessman snatches away money from even the most miserly and reluctant customer. Thus the business world rotates on the pivot of advertisement.
INCREASING ADS:--
As the world is progressing, so the mean of advertisement is also increasing. We all know that big posters are posted on the walls, and handbills are distributed to advance the sale of goods. Walls are painted, and big signboards are deployed on crossings and prominent places to serve this purpose. In the cinema hall, first of all, we see the advertisement. Situation Vacant, Tender Notice, Educational; Lost and Found, Matrimonial. Cinema Advertisement and advertisements of so many commodities and regular features of all newspapers. Radio and Television also are being used as means of commercial advertisement.
QUALITIES OF ADVERTISEMENT:--
A good advertisement must have some certain good qualities. First, it should be based on human psychology. A thing meant for ladies should be advertised in such a way that they are attracted to it. If men are to be the customers, then it should appear into their consideration their purchasing power. A motor car is a thing the rich. Its advertisement must touch the mentality of the rich. A sewing machine should be advertised so that the family man with the ordinary income may feel the economic advantages of the investment of his money on it.
Second, advertisements should be attractive. This is essential. People look towards an advertisement only if it is eye-catching. Good interesting pictures are very effective from the point of view. We all know about Sanford cloth. The advertisement must be interesting, attractive, and eye-catching.
People do not like to waste their time on things that do not concern them. So to be successful, the advertisement must be brief. Long descriptive stories or certificates of praise about certain things do not make a good advertisement. This is an important point in advertising, and a good advertisement must keep it in mind.
NATURE OF THE ADS:--
Advertisement is not concerned with the good or bad quality of goods. Even the most injurious goods are advertised. These day Advertisement of undesirable drugs and medicines and indecent literature are so common. They cheat the public. So we should be careful while purchasing an advertised article. We should use our own minds instead of blindly following the advice of advertisements.
In our country, the art of advertisement is in its infancy. In progressive countries, big business concerns have specialists and experts for the purpose. They spend huge amounts of money on advertisements.
