The main motto of advertisements is to let the public know about commodities or 
services commercially. The new age in which we live depends upon publicity. In 
order to promote a particular interest or to promote sale of a particular product 
advertisements are made. Advertisement presents and describes a product or 
service to the public by different advertising media to promote consumption and 
sales. 
The main is to sell a particular product by gaining the public attention. 
Advertising is one of the most interesting and complex topics in the media world. 
It is a huge source of revenue for the mass media. Newspapers, television 
networks, radio stations and also many websites sell spaces to the advertisers to 
promote their commodity or service to the public. With the help of these sources, 
companies or firms make publicity to get people’s attention on their products or 
services.
Advertising vs Marketing
Advertising and marketing play a major role in the smooth running of a business. 
It is a way of educating customers about new products which has become more 
widespread these days. Advertisements with good content attract and influence 
people and pressurize them to buy or spend money on a particular commodity or 
a  service even when they don’t need it.
When people see advertisements they get tempted to buy products. 
Advertisements can also be placed in newspapers, bill boards, school notice 
boards, magazines, and even in social networking sites. They give general public 
 information about products and services to increase overall sales. However, 
advertising alone does not get customers. It works better to attract new customers 
to lead them to impulsive purchases. But getting back the old customers need 
more creative marketing approach.
Types of Advertising Media
There are different types of advertising media. Few of them are television, radio, 
internet, direct emails or SMS, online advertising etc. A successful advertising 
campaign will spread to the world about one’s products or services and attracts 
customers so as to generate and increase sales. Television advertising and 
newspaper advertising have the ability to promote a business to a wide range of 
customers.
 
We typically see ads displayed all over the newspaper and in classifieds columns 
or under headlines in a certain sections. Whereas, television has an extensive 
reach and advertising through television is preferable if a business wants to spread 
to large markets. Advertising through television will have the advantage of sound, 
movement, sight and colour to influence and convince a customer to buy a certain 
product. Now-a-days, online advertising through internet or web is gaining 
popularity because the number of people surfing the web is rapidly increasing.
