INTRODUCTION TO ADVERTISING
LECTURE OVERVIEW
In this lecture we will discuss the classification of advertisements and its functions besides
explaining about the elements of advertising and its impact.
CLASSIFICATION OF ADVERTISEMENTS
Advertisements have various objectives, sometimes other than just selling products. However,
before designing and classifying ads answers to following questions are essential:
·
What do I want my advertising to accomplish? i.e. specifying goals.
·
Whom should my advertising address?
·
Target audience.
·
Demographics e.g. gender, age, location or business etc.
·
Behaviors e.g. current awareness about your business.
·
Needs & desires e.g. benefit which consumers look for in a product.
·
What should my advertising say?
To sum up the message should speak to your audience and you should be able to decide where
to place the advertisement? Selection of media to place advertisement is essential but before
advertising we must determine the purpose of doing so and identify, is it a product or a non-
product.

IMPACT OF ADVERTISING
If you count the number of advertisements you encounter each day, the number might reach an
astonishing figure. Many a times ads create the need of the products, which customers actually
do not need. Therefore, in fact:
"Advertising is a non-moral force like electricity which not only illuminates but also
electrocutes. In fact, its worth to civilization depends upon how it is used". .
--- William Bernbach
