IntroductionAdvertising is a form of  marketing  communication  used to promote or sell something, usually a business's product or service. Advertising by a government in favor of its own policies is often called propaganda. (“Latin Word Study Tool", 2014.)

The purpose of advertising may also be to reassure employees or shareholders that a company is viable or successful. Advertising messages are usually paid for by sponsors and viewed via various old media; including mass media such as newspapers, magazines, televisions, radio , outdoor advertising or direct mail; or new media such as blogs, websites or text messages.

Commercial ads seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through "branding," which associates a product name or image with certain qualities in the minds of consumers. Non-commercial advertisers who spend money to advertise items other than a consumer product or service include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and governmental agencies. Non-profit organizations may use free modes of persuasion, such as a public service announcement.

Modern advertising was created with the techniques introduced with tobacco advertising in the 1920s, most significantly with the campaigns of Edward Bernays, considered the founder of modern, "Madison Avenue" advertising. (Donley T. Studlar (2002))

In 2015, the world spent an estimate of US$592.43 billion on advertising. Internationally, the largest ("big four") advertising conglomerates are Interpublic, Omnicom, Publics, and WPP.

Advertising is how a company encourages people to buy their products, services or ideas. An advertisement (or "ad" for short) is anything that draws good attention towards these things. It is usually designed by an advertising agency for an identified sponsor, and performed through a variety of media. Ads appear on television, as well as radio, newspapers, magazines and as billboards in streets and cities. They try to get people to buy their products, by showing them the good rather than bad of their products.  (Bhatia (2000))

Advertisers influence our emotions by techniques that include stereotyping and targeting the audience according to who we are. Emotions are influenced by things such as this our occupation, beliefs, personality, self, lifestyle, relationships, friends, how we look and what we wear. Advertisers use methods that attract attention.

For example :To make a burger look tasty in advertising, it may be painted with brown food colors, sprayed with waterproofing to prevent it from going soggy and sesame seeds may be super-glued in place. Advertising can bring new customers and more sales for the business. It can be expensive but can help make a business make more money.

Types of Advertising Advertising happens in many different ways. Many products are advertised on television, although not all channels permit advertising. The advertisements usually appear during breaks between a televisions shows. They are usually for products, other television shows or movies and are not normally much longer than 30 seconds. Some radio stations have audio advertisements that play between programs. (Ian Linton, 2009)

An advertisement for a movie is called a trailer. It shows a short collection of clips from the movie, and shows the date it will be released in cinemas.

Advertising also takes place on websites. These may appear as "banner ads" or "popups". They are often still images or flash animations. The owner of the website will get money when a user clicks on the advertisement. Sometimes they will get a percentage of the money if they buy a product.

Billboards advertise products on highways and city streets. These may simply be freestanding billboards or may be part of street furniture such as a bus shelter. Buses and taxis are often covered in adverts, while budget airlines sometimes allow advertising inside their planes. Adverts also appear in newspapers, magazines and sports programs. Many stadiums have adverts set around them. Sports teams, tournaments, television programs and public events may have a sponsor who is the main or sometimes only advertiser.

Product Advertising

Product advertising communicates the features and benefits of a product to customers and prospects. Companies use product advertising when they want to launch new products, announce changes to existing products or increase sales of those products. Product advertisements must reflect the interests of the target audience. An advertiser developing a campaign for a food product, for example, would create messages and select media that appeal to a wide consumer audience. A campaign for a business product, such as a machine tool,

would use media that appeal to different groups influencing the decision to buy, including plant managers, production engineers and finance directors.

Corporate Advertising

Corporate advertising campaigns play an important part in business-to-business marketing, particularly for companies trying to win a major sale or contract. Prospects evaluate the company as well as the product when they are choosing a supplier. They look for suppliers that have the capability to deliver quality products on time. Corporate advertising helps to build confidence among customers and prospects by communicating messages about your company’s capability and resources, your market position and financial stability.

Direct Response Advertising

Direct response advertising encourages prospects to register their details, typically in return for an incentive offer, such as a free gift, special discount or a copy of a business report for business prospects. The advertisement includes a response mechanism, such as a reply coupon, telephone number, email address or website address. The information that you capture from responses provides leads that your sales force or telemarketing team can follow up to create news sales opportunities. You can also use direct response advertising to sell products directly to customers. Include information on the product, together with a price and contact details for ordering the product.

Financial Advertising

Financial advertising can help your company attract funds if you are planning to grow your business or make a major investment. Advertising in the financial or business sections of newspapers and magazines can raise awareness of your company among analysts, shareholders, potential investors and advisers. Publishing financial results, together with important developments, such as major contracts or new product launches, keeps your audience up to date with the company’s performance.

Print AdvertisingNewspapers, Magazines, Brochures, Flyers .The print media have always been a popular advertising medium.Advertising products via newspapers or magazines is a common practice.

Outdoor Advertising

Billboards, Kiosks, Tradeshows and Events, Outdoor advertising is also a very popular form of advertising, which makes use of several tools and techniques to attract the customers outdoors.The b i l lboard adver t i s ing i s very popular however has to be rea l ly te rse and catchy in order to grab the attention of the passersby. The kiosks not only provide an easy outlet for the company products but also make for an effective advertising tool to promote the company’s products.

Broadcast advertising

Television, Radio and the Internet, Broadcast advertising is a very popular advertising medium that constitutes of several branches like television, radio or the Internet.Television advertisements have been very popular ever since they have been introduced. The cost of television advertising often depends on the duration of the advertisement, the time of broadcast (prime time/peak time), and of course the popularity of the television channel on which the advertisement is going to be broadcasted. The radio might have los t i t s charm owing to the new age media however the radio remains to be the choice of small-scale advertisers. The radio jingles have been very  popular advertising media and have a large impact on the audience.

Covert Advertising (Advertising in Movies)

Covert advertising is a unique kind of advertising in which a product or a particular brand is incorporated in some entertainment and media channels like movies, television shows or even sports. There is no commercial in the entertainment but the brand or the product is subtly (or sometimes evidently) showcased in the entertainment show.Some of the famous examples for this sort of advertising have to be the appearance of brand Nokia which is displayed on Tom Cruise’s phone in the movie Minority Report, or the use of Cadillac cars in the movie Matrix Reloaded.

Surrogate Advertising (Advertising Indirectly)

Surrogate advertising is prominently seen in cases where advertising a particular product i s  banned  by   law.  Adver t isement   for  produc ts   l ike  c igare t tes  or  a lcohol which  are injurious to heath are prohibited by law in several countries and hence these companies have to come up with several other products that might have the same brand name and indirectly remind people.

Public Service Advertising (Advertising for Social Causes)

Public service advertising is a technique that makes use of advertising as an effective communication medium to convey socially relevant messaged about important matters and social welfare causes. Like, energy conservation, political integrity, deforestation, illiteracy, poverty and so on.

Celebrity Advertising

Al though the audience i s ge t t ing smarter and smarter and the modern day consumer  getting immune to the exaggerated claims made in a majority of advertisements, there is an existence of a section of the advertisers that still bank upon celebrities and their popularity for the advertising of their product. That kind of advertising involves signing up celebrities for advertising campaigns, which consist of all sorts of advertising including, television ads or even print advertisement

How do adverts get made? Armed with little more than an inquisitive mind and a mountain of product research, how do the agencies come up with a plan that the client will be happy to back? (The Open Learn team)

The creative process was described as early as 1926 by Graham Wallis, an English sociologist, and can be applied to creative work in advertising.

He broke the process down into four stages: preparation, incubation, illumination and verification.

Each stage must be completed before the advert can be ready for launch. (http://www.open.edu/)

The creative process

1. Preparation

The creative team needs to absorb the brief given to them by their client. They will research and investigate the product, its marketplace, and their client’s intended audience in order to become fully familiar with the issues involved. The team will then accumulate a multitude of rough ideas through brainstorming sessions and free association thinking.

2. Incubation

Once the preparation has been done and initial ideas generated, it is not unusual to reach a blocking point. At this stage it is often found best to switch off from the problem, and let the conscious mind give way to the subconscious.

3. Illumination

Often the flash of inspiration will come when creatives are away from the office environment. Suddenly the jigsaw comes together, the pieces fall into place and an innovative idea has emerged.

4. Verification

After the initial excitement of having an amazing idea, creatives need to be objective about their thoughts and check if the brainwave fits the brief. This verification process is one that will be ongoing, gradually whittling the wide variety of ideas down into a smaller and smaller group until a manageable number emerge as the strongest to take forward to the client.

5. Getting the message across

There are a wide variety of ways to advertise and while creative agencies will often try to invent (or re-invent) new ways all the time, the majority of advertising uses established techniques. The choice of which technique to use is an important one. Get it right, and the message will get through to the target audience, get it wrong and it could miss the audience altogether.

6. Content

Informational focusing on the facts Emotional – plays on our emotions to develop an interest in the product Image – tries to link the product to desirable qualities such as a certain lifestyle

8

ApproachHard Sell – tackles the sales issue head on and attempts to persuade the audience that this product is the one for them Soft Sell – a very much more subtle approach avoiding the sales issue and presenting an aspirational image

Relationship between Consumer behavior and advertising (Erin J. Hill, 2010)

Consumer behavior and advertising are closely related because the main goal of advertising involves using the behavior of potential buyers. The art of advertising is to use visual images and convincing copy to give consumers a sense of longing or need for products or services. This also ties in with the study of marketing, the means by which advertising is delivered to consumers through networking, advertisements, and other means of communication.

Advertising refers to ways in which marketers, retailers, and other professionals communicate with potential consumers or prospects. It usually involves the use of paid printed media communications, television spots, or Internet radio ads. Marketers must have a good grasp of consumer behavior and advertising of the way the two are connected before an effective campaign can be implemented. Studies of past consumer behavior and public opinion on certain products should be performed well in advance. Advertisers must understand their potential customers in order for their efforts yield a good return.

The goal of any ad is to persuade consumers that they need a particular product or service. To do this, the message of any form of advertising must appeal to the product's key demographic, an ad must speak directly to the person most likely to need or want the product being sold. For instance, advertisers probably wouldn't use slang in an ad directed at investment brokers, nor would they use images of scantily clad women to try and sell to new moms. In this way, advertising is heavily linked to consumer behavior, since no ad will influence a person's behavior if it seems irrelevant to his or her desires.

Studying consumer behavior and advertising is also useful in other ways. Advertisers may go back and study the response rates and reactions to previous ads to determine overall public opinion about them. This may include studies on what people think of a particular brand's image or what they thought about the ad in particular. By determining what consumers respond to best, more effective advertising can be delivered.

The study of consumer behavior and advertising is typically a case of trial and error. Some ads, even when they follow conventional wisdom, simply do not sell products. Many ineffective advertising comes as the result of not appealing to the right demographic. Others bomb because they don't address any demographic at all, but they focus solely on the product or service being offered instead of on consumer needs. (http://www.wisegeek.com/)

Role of Advertising in the Present Business World

Abey Francis in 2015 titled being business entities, sometimes companies are carried away with their profit motives. They forget that as they are a part of the society, they have a responsibility towards the society, as well. Any activity of the company should not have an adverse effect on the society.

The same stands true in respect of advertising also. With the growth in the reach and frequency of mass media, the advertising industry has also grown by leaps and bounds. It implies that the persons exposed to advertising are also growing with the growth of mass media and the advertising industry.

On the one hand, it is a good sign for the marketers as they can now reach a larger audience by using mass media but on the other hand, it has increased their role towards the society. Now marketers have to be more socially responsible while making and presenting their advertisements as the presentation of advertisements can have a positive as well as a negative impact on the society.

In this ad-mad world, the viewers are exposed to thousands of ads. It is almost impossible for them to pay attention to all those ads. Only those ads are able to catch their attention, which are different in some way or another from the other bouquet of ads. To break this monotony and to make advertising catchy, marketers are dishing out a wide variety of advertisements. They try to give a different touch to make it look appealing. Sometimes they succeed in their experiments, at other times their efforts raise the eyebrows of the viewers. It is often seen that in the name of experimentation and in the desire to win the market game, marketers every now and then are involved in making ads, which cannot be termed as `ethical'.

Advertising is a form of communication intended to persuade an audience (viewers, readers or listeners) to take some action. It includes the name of a product or service and how that product or service could benefit the consumer, to persuade potential customers to purchase or to consume that particular brand. Modern advertising developed with the rise of mass production in the late 19th and the early 20th centuries. Commercial advertisers often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through banding, which involves the repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate related qualities with the brand in the minds of consumers. Different types of media can be used to deliver these messages, including traditional media such as newspapers, magazines, television, radio, out door or direct mail; or new media such as websites and text messages. Advertising may be placed by an advertising agency on behalf of a company or other organization. Non- commercial advertisers that spend money to advertise items other than a consumer product or service include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and

10

governmental agencies. Non-profit organizations may rely on free mode of persuasion, such as a public service announcement.

In the current fragmented market, the marketers are facing tough competition from their competitors. Each marketer has to prove himself to be better than his competitors. The cut-throat competitive market environment has made the advertising field very experimental and hence advertisers are adopting different measures to attract the attention of their target customers. They try to present their advertisements in such a way that catches instant customer attention. For this, they use a blend of message appeals like rational, emotional, ethical, etc. to make a positive impact on the target audience. Aspirations, comfort, convenience, economy, efficiency, fear, love, nostalgia, pride, health, luxury, patriotism, sex and safety are some of the ideas that engage the minds and touch the hearts of the target audience, and ultimately motivate a response.

Advertising carries several responsibilities Advertising informs the public so that they can be aware of products and make informed choices among different products or brands. Advertising also benefits businesses in assisting them to sell their products.

But while dispensing its role as a dream merchant, advertising has also been in the vortex of controversy of the many ills that it brings to society. It is accused of encouraging materialism and consumption, of stereotyping, of causing us to purchase items for which we have no need, of taking advantage of children, of manipulating our behavior, using sex to sell, and generally contributing to the downfall of our social system.

Advertising does not function in a vacuum but in a market environment where several forces like consumer needs, business interests and government regulations are at work. It is a powerful force in terms of its persuasiveness and functions a critical social role. Moreover the high visibility and pervasiveness, it generates criticism and controversy. Much of this controversy springs from the fact that advertising is used more as a persuasive communication tool thereby creating serious impact on the tastes, values and lifestyles of society. In today's challenging market economy, advertising has become an important element of the society. Moreover, advertisements play a powerful constructive role in the economic growth of a country. On the contrary, they can often play a negative role in hurting the sentiments of an individual or the society. Hence, it is important that advertising professionals observe high ethical standards in regard to truthfulness, human dignity and social responsibilities.

Techniques

11

Advertisers use many different techniques to get people to notice their adverts, often using deliberately shocking or provocative images. Once they have managed to make people notice their advert, they need to 'sell' the product or brand. They may try to make the product look appealing, however often advertisers use humor in such a way that get people to remember the brand without actually promoting the product. Poor adverts can damage sales or spoil a brands identity.

Regulations

Advertising is often strictly regulated, for instance in the United Kingdom it is illegal to advertise tobacco, except in the shop where it is sold and this is also restricted. In France it is illegal to advertise alcohol, meaning that when many European football teams play in France, they cannot play in their usual shirts as breweries often advertise on sports shirts. It is also illegal to advertise on some television channels, the BBC in the United Kingdom and RTE in the Republic of Ireland are not allowed to permit advertising and instead make their revenue from selling a compulsory television license.

Problem StatementAdvertising has become a main tool in order to influence the buying behavior of consumers in a highly competitive environment. The main objective of our promotion aggrandizement is to target and reach the audience for the publicity of our product. The e-business strategy towards marketing is a constraint for the companies to stay connected with the customers by using the internet as a 2-way communication. Advertisement with a message better known as ‘tag-line’ is assumed to be connected instantly with consumers. The advertisers are leaving no stone unturned to have communication contact with customers and to motivate thier purchase behavior.

This study is an attempt to measure the effects of advertising on consumer behavior in the consumer market by considering the various types of advertisements and ‘the slogan’ driving through the advertisements. In fact, this study will also help to know the effectiveness of advertising on consumers, the attitude of consumers towards advertising and the relationships between the character of consumers and advertising strategies in the market.

OBJECTIVEThe marketing has a huge scope but advertising plays a vital role in marketing as it is said that the advertising is an essence of marketing .so basically the objectives are to study -

1. The impact of advertisements on the consumer segment.

2. Impact of advertisements on the consumer buying segment.

3. Evaluate the role of advertisements in the common man’s life.

4. Factors affecting the consumer buying process with respect to advertisements

5. To examine the influence of advertising on consumer buying behaviors.

6. To determine the influence of advertising on attitude formation of consumers.

7. Choosing an appropriate strategy

After choosing an appropriate strategy and deciding upon the advertising objectives, media selection is the next important consideration. Media is the vehicle that is used for the delivery of the message. Some important tools of advertisement are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, direct mail and mail order, outdoor display and transportation.

All the efforts to make an advertisement are centered on the sole aim of making it so effective and persuasive in a natural way so as to serve the motto of meeting the consumer psyche in a positive manner. Every human community develops a system by which it provides and distributes goods and services. In today’s advanced societies as the development goes on, this system is becoming very complex due to wide range of available goods in all fields.

To comprehend this framework completely, it is required to concentrate on a man's whole lifetime encounters on the utilization of financial merchandise. It includes investigation of practically every action towards consumables in which people are included. Starting here of perspective, customer conduct seems, by all accounts, to be subsets of human conduct for the variables, which influence people in their day by day lives, likewise impact their obtaining exercises. Also, inner impacts, for example, social class, society, family, reference bunch, assessment pioneers and culture.

Literature reviewWe need to review the literature as it demonstrates that you know the field. This means more than reporting what you've read and understood. Instead, you need to read it critically and to write in such a way that shows you have a feel for the area; you know what the most important issues are and their relevance to your work, you know the controversies, you know what's neglected, you have the anticipation of where it's being taken. All this would allow you to map the field and position your research within the context.

As well as it justifies the reason for your research. This is closely connected with demonstrating that you know the field. It is the knowledge of your field which allows you to identify the gap which your research could fill. However, it is not enough to find a gap. You have also to be able to convince your reader that what you are doing is important and needs to be done.

Also it allows you to establish your theoretical framework and methodological focus. Even if you are proposing a new theory or a new method, you are doing so in relation to what has been done. The literature review becomes your springboard for the whole thesis.

Advertising is the process of performing market research, selling products and/or services to customers and promoting them via advertising to further enhance sales. It generates the strategy that underlies sales techniques, business communication, and business developments. It is an integrated process through which companies build strong customer relationships and create value for their customers and for themselves.

Advertisement purposeWe live in a world of advertising. It is a world of our making, of course. We don't like to pay the full price of things, so we allow other people to pay part of that price in exchange for letting them pass a message to us. So, we open up the pages of our favorite magazine, and there are glossy ads for clothes, shoes, cars, or beer. We turn on the television, and smiling faces on television try to sell us soup, toothpaste, candy, and politicians.

The reason that we accept all this advertising is that we assume that we can tune most of it out. If we don't pay attention to the ads, then they won't have that much of an effect on our behavior. Sure, the makers of commercials can try to jack up the volume, but at least we have the right to look away.

14

A paper slated to appear in the December, 2010 issue of the Journal of Consumer Research by Melanie Dempsey and Andrew Mitchell suggests that the picture might not be so rosy. These researchers did two clever studies that ought to make us think twice about how much advertising we allow ourselves to be exposed to.

We usually assume that advertising functions mostly to tell us about the properties of a product. A particular detergent might advertise that it gets stains out better than competitors, that it smells good, and that it leaves clothes feeling fresh. We believe that these properties are ones that will help us to choose the detergent we want to buy.

However, ads also do other things. One thing they do is to take a product and to put it next to lots of other things that we already feel positively about. For example, an ad for detergent may have fresh flowers, cute babies, and sunshine in it. All of these things are ones that we probably feel pretty good about already. And repeatedly showing the detergent along with other things that we feel good about can make us feel good about the detergent, too. This transfer of our feelings from one set of items to another is called affective conditioning (the word affect means feelings).

Dr. D.Prasanna Kumar & K. Venkateswara Raju (2013) titled various studies have inspected the viability of publicizing in the previous decade. The regular measures of publicizing viability incorporate advertisement review, promotion acknowledgment, brand mindfulness, snaps or active clicking factor, state of mind towards the promotion and the brand, and buy thought. Of these normal measures, states of mind toward the advertisement, taps on promotion, and capacity to review promotion are the center of the present study. The viability of these three measures was evaluated by their capacity to anticipate buy choice.people who are somehow recognized in the promoting message and who would like to educate or induce individuals from a specific group of onlookers is of the conclusion that promoting is utilized to set up an essential familiarity with the item or administration in the psyche of the potential client and to develop information about it. Presently promoter is searching for new and probably less messed media.Ayanwale et al (2005) led research on commercial of Bournvita, he found as promoting affects customers' similarity for Bournvita nourishment drink. Comparable looks into have as of now been directed for the nature of Bournvita.

Effects of advertising

Jerry W Thomas and zantherus (2009) titled the advertising industry, as a whole, has the poorest quality-assurance systems and turns out the most inconsistent product (their ads and commercials) of any industry in the world. This may appear like an excessively cruel appraisal, yet it depends on testing a great many promotions more than quite a few years. We would say, just about portion of all plugs really work; that is, have any beneficial outcomes on customers' buying conduct or brand decision. Also, a little share of promotions really seem to affect deals..

Dissimilar to a large portion of the business world, which is administered by various criticism circles, the promoting business gets minimal goal, dependable input on its publicizing. Initial, couple of advertisements and plugs are ever tried among shoppers (short of what one percent, as per a few evaluations). In this way, nobody—not office or customer—knows whether the promoting is any great. In the event that nobody knows when a business is great or awful, or why, in what manner can the following business be any better? Second, once the publicizing goes on air, deals reaction (a potential criticism circle) is a famously poor pointer of publicizing viability in light of the fact that there is generally such a great amount of "clamor" in deals information (aggressive action, out-of-stocks, climate, monetary patterns, limited time impacts, estimating variety, and so forth.). Third, a portion of the input is confounding and deluding: office and customer inclinations and predispositions, the suppositions of the customer's significant other, criticism from merchants and franchisees, grievances from the maniac periphery, etcetera.

. (Essays, UK. (November 2013). The Effect of Advertising On Consumer Decision Making Marketing Essay. 1) titled there is few positive impact of advertising and the two that are more important is building awareness and connects emotionally. Giving an example for building awareness, a new brand can really benefit a lot if a celebrity endorses on it. And it can attract the customers' attention and inquisitiveness to see what product is being endorsed. Besides that, research has shown that consumers can get a higher level of message recall if the brand or products is endorsed by celebrities. Next, will be connects emotionally. Some famous celebrities like David Beckham, Dato. Lee Chong Wei, and Michael Schumacher, command great adoration among people. This type of celebrities can strongly and positively influence the view of their fans. Their fans will willing to purchase or tend to do because of their stars are enduring on it.

The negative impact which would like to talk about celebrity overshadows the brand and necessary evil. In celebrity overshadows the brand, In certain cases where the celebrity values category benefit and brand values are not closely linked. There are chances that the celebrity is remembered more than a brand. Cyber media research study reveals that 80% of the respondents approached for research remembered the celebrity but could not recall the brand being endorsed.

Also where advertising is a Necessary Evil ,Marketing have felt that once the brand rides the back of celebrity it becomes difficult to promote it without the star as it becomes difficult to separate the role of message and the role of the celebrity in selling the brand. The celebrity activity .

Danny L. Moore, University of Florida (2006) titled The affective reactions to the ad are associated directly with the brand through a conditioning process. If distraction is the mediator of add effects, then advertisements eliciting strong affective reactions, regardless of valence, should impair brand memory and attitude change. f strong affective reactions to advertising increase memory for the advertised product, then brand attitudes may be more favorable for brands associated with ads eliciting intense affective reactions relative to ads eliciting little or no affective reaction. The assumption is that brands associated with positive or negative ads are distinctive in memory, and consequently, increased familiarity with the brand will lead to more favorable attitudes toward the brand. An implicit assumption of the distinctiveness hypothesis is that reactions to the ad and reactions to the brand are separated in memory.

Dr. Max Sutherland and Alice K. Sylvester titled The effect of image advertising is easier to see in relation to high-involvement products, so let us start with a high-involvement example — Volvo cars. Between 1970 and 1990, Volvo focused its image advertising on safety. Through repetition, it built up a strong image for the Volvo as a safe car. On a scale of 1 to 10 for safety, most people would rate Volvo higher than almost any other car. Safety is now an integral part of our perception of this brand. (The fact that the car actually delivers on this promise has of course been a very important ingredient in the success of the safety campaign -but that is another story.)

One effect of image advertising, then, is to produce gradual shifts in our perceptions of a brand with regard to a particular attribute — in Volvo’s case, safety (in other words, to effect marginal changes in our mental rating of the brand on that attribute). This is often not perceptible after just one exposure because the change, if it occurs, is too small for us to notice.

George Monbiot  (2011) stated The report takes its title from a quote from a notable advertiser who remarked that he “would rather be thought of as evil than useless,” and it’s an analysis of how advertising impacts culture.

Obviously advertising is a useful thing to the businesses that use it, and that’s all of them if they expect to have any customers. It’s a means of informing choice, and it’s vital to new entrants in any market. When it comes to society however, and the big picture effects of advertising in general, it’s not pretty. The report’s conclusion is that advertising promotes values that are directly opposed to human wellbeing, environmental sustainability and a fair society. It ought to be considered a detrimental influence, and regulated accordingly.

That’s not how advertisers see it of course. As far as they’re concerned, they simply redistribute consumption, directing spending from this brand to that one. They promote choice, and simply reflect existing cultural values. In reality, advertising doesn’t just expand market share, it expands the size of the market. “It seems,” says the report, “that advertising may be encouraging society to save less, borrow more, work harder and consume greater quantities of material goods.”

Advertising also impact values. While it reflects society to a certain degree, it also has the effect of ‘normalizing’ values or behaviors. With the average American exposed to between 500 and 1,000 commercial messages a day, it wields considerable power over what we consider normal. An example that came to mind for me was the idea of cosmetics for men. Only a few years ago, the idea that men might want to use moisturizers would have been laughable to most British men. A sustained advertising campaign from Nivea later, including prominent billboards at football stadiums, and there’s nothing unusual at all about men using hand cream.

Hand cream is benign stuff, and it’s not the products that are the problem here, but the values behind the ads.

Research by Frederick Groused and Tim Kasser (2001) shows how advertising tends to promote ‘extrinsic’ values rather than ‘intrinsic’ values. The former are those that rely on external factors for validation – the opinions and admiration of others. The latter meanwhile, are rewarding in themselves, such as a sense of family belonging, rewarding work, or self-development.

This matters because “placing greater importance on extrinsic values is associated with higher levels of prejudice, less concern about the environment… and weak (or absent) concern about

18

human rights.” That’s bad for society, but it’s not great for the individual concerned either: “People who attach greater importance to extrinsic values are also likely to report lower levels of personal wellbeing.”

One of the most useful frameworks for understanding culture in the past three decades was Hall’s high and low context model (1976, 1984), which has been widely used and recognized by many scholars interested in cross-cultural research.

Hall (1976), an anthropologist who spent many years writing and teaching about intercultural behavioral differences and their applications to business, demonstrated that A high context communication or message is one in which most of the information is either in the physical context or internalized in the person, while very little is in the coded, explicit, transmitted part of the message. A low context communication is just the opposite; i.e., the mass of the information is vested in the explicit code.

In addition, individualism versus collectivism provides a useful framework to teach how culture impacts advertising appeals. As Hofstede (1984) said, “the relationship between the individual and the collectivity in human society is not only a matter of ways of living together, but it is intimately linked with societal norms” (p. 149).

Consumer Behavior and AdvertisingLars Perner and Matin Khan (2010) stated all of us are consumers. We devour things of day by day use, we additionally expend and purchase these items as per our needs, inclinations and purchasing power. These can be consumable products, sturdy merchandise, and claim to fame merchandise or, mechanical merchandise. What we purchase, how we purchase, where and when we purchase, in the amount of amount we purchase relies on upon our observation, self-idea, social and social foundation and our age and family cycle, our states of mind, convictions, values, inspiration, identity, social class and numerous different components that are both interior and outer to us. While purchasing, we likewise consider whether to purchase or not to purchase and, from which source or dealer to purchase. In a few social orders, there is a ton of riches and, these social orders can stand to purchase in more prominent amounts and at shorter interims. In poor social orders, the shopper can scarcely meet his barest needs. Buyer conduct can be characterized as the basic leadership process and physical action required in obtaining, assessing, utilizing and discarding merchandise and administrations.

19

This definition unmistakably draws out that it is not only the purchasing of merchandise/administrations that gets consideration in buyer conduct at the same time, the procedure begins much before the products have been obtained or purchased. A procedure of purchasing begins in the brains of the purchaser, which prompts the finding of choices between items that can be procured with their relative points of interest and detriments.

(Ajzen, 2002) said the most vital purpose behind contemplating buyer conduct is the part that it plays in our lives. We invest a great deal of energy in shops and commercial centers. We talk and examine with companions about items and benefits and get parcel of data from T.V. This impacts our day by day lives. Shopper choices are influenced by their conduct. Along these lines, buyer conduct is said to be a connected control. Consumers buying behavior has always been given so much importance and space in the literature study of impact of advertising regarding its effectiveness

Smith et al. (2002) titled that it prompts the small scale point of view and societal viewpoint. Small scale Perspective. It includes understanding customer with the end goal of helping a firm or association to accomplish its targets. Every one of the Managers in various offices are quick to comprehend the shopper. They might promote Managers, Product Designers, Marketing and Sales Managers etc. Societal Perspective is on the full scale level. Most of the time consumers buying behavior is influenced by liking or disliking of consumer towards the advertisement of the product, advertised

Likewise, Allen. Et al., (1992) argue that it is actually the emotional reaction which is developed after the advertising, for the product advertised, that influences the consumer behavior. In the words of Gorn, 1982, the consumer behavior towards a product is totally depending on advertising, without any assessment of the quality of the product. Furthermore, Controversies over the impact of advertising on the consumer’s buying trends and habits has always been present (George, 1989).

Sometimes the advertisers over exaggerate about the product’s benefits in such a tactful manner that consumer goes psychologically under the pressure of advertising persuasiveness and intentionally decides to buy the advertised product (Smith et al., 2006). In the point of view of some people, now most of the consumers avoid the advertisement, because they consider the advertisement, just annoying and misleading (Bishop, 1997).

Advertisements have been attacked on psychological, sociological, aesthetic and political grounds. From the point of view of a common lay man, what is the purpose of advertising? Some critics even criticize and consider advertising very harmful to the collective behaviors of the society (Barbara, J. P 1997). But defenders of advertising always give a strong argument in

20

its favor that basic aim of advertising is to sell the products, rather its effects on cultural values of the society (Gold, 1987).

There is a general point of view of many societal members, that advertising may have a negative, unintended or intended influence on consumers’ buying trends (Burr and Burr 1977 and Verbeke, W. 1992). Actually advertising has a strong potential on changing our social values, as well our buying behaviors through influencing our cultural values (Schudson, 1984). Specifically, advertising may lead a consumer to prefer material objects over more morally and socially oriented alternatives; it may potentially increase conflict and lead to an unhappier and a more disappointed person of the society (Goldberg and Gom 1978).

While the major aim of advertising is to give something new, creative and useful to get long term benefits of brand loyalty and image building of the product and company by establishing an emotional relationship and persuasion for buying that product. This is also a debatable issue that which kind of impact of advertising effects the beliefs and collective attitudes of the consumer with respect to the buying behavior (Barbara, J. 1997).

In the modern times, it’s really difficult to be successful in persuasion and to mould or effect the buying behavior of consumer in this era of tough competition (Robinson, 1997). With the success of advertising field, now it has been admitted as a universal factor that advertising plays a very influencing role in the consumers’ behaviors (Beil & Bridgewater, 1990).

If the consumers could understand the intention of advertisements, then the potential effect of advertising may be reduced. As the impact of television advertising allows consumers to use the cognitive defenses, such as to produce counter arguments and reasons (Bruck, A, and Goldberg 1988).

Likewise, the recognition of the false psychological impact of advertisements, allows them to avoid advertisements or break by zapping to some other channel, as it has always been shown that majority of viewers Zap at least as much during the advertising as they do during common programs (Heater & Greenberg 1985). For persuading and reaching to the consumer, advertising is considered the most effective and powerful source (Siropolis, 1997).

Hence, whether or not impact of advertising on consumers buying trends is a very important issue to investigate, from the consumers or buyers point of view. Furthermore from the advertiser point of view as it will alter the impact and effectiveness of their advertisements. Likewise George (1989) stated that controversies over the effects of commercials have always been present. Advertising is accused of exploiting the feelings and building of personal anxieties, over emphasizing the material side of life and distortion of human and ethical values in children.

At the same time, Aaker, Batra and Myers (1992) argued that advertising has negative impact on values and life Styles of society. While Bryant and Zelman (1994) stated that it is most probably safe to quote that

21

early, advertisers were less concerned with Media choices and affects then they were with simply intending communication.

Furthermore Kotwal et al. (2008) insists that television and advertising have proved a great combination together and are now considered as an essential part of modern world. Many research studies have proved that advertising play an important role in the introduction of a new product and help in the buying of a new product and further help in better choices of shopping of useful products. Majority of the viewers of television advertising say that advertising have always forces them to buy that particular product, about which they have watched in the advertisement. Due to the strong impact of advertising, it is the moral duty of advertisers to practice the code of ethics, during the promotion of their products.

The purpose of advertising should be the guidance of consumer rather than blackmailing and threatening by pushing forcefully to buy that product. Proper and effective advertising always help the companies and marketers to improve their brand image and increase their share in the market (Ninan, 2008).

Effective advertising is actually the other name of persuasion and liking or disliking attitude of consumer towards some particular product or advertising (Mehta, 2000; Stone et al., 2000). There are a number of factors in advertising which contribute a lot in changing the consumers’ buying behavior. Like likeability, brand image, persuasiveness, celebrity endorsement, information about the product, entertainment etc.

Conclusion Because buyers can act on the basis of incomplete information, they automatically and consciously incur a risk in every purchase and non-purchase decision. The size of the risk buyers perceive depends on the importance of the particular purchase and on the quantity of relevant information about the product category and the competing brands.

A purchase decision can be considered as an optimization process through which buyers seek the product or the brand that will yield the greatest satisfaction.

The choice process can be considered as the search for the most satisfying trade-off among brands that possess desirable attributes at different levels. This view of the role of additional information in consumer purchase decision has implications for advertising.

An advertisement reaching a potential buyer while the buyer is seeking information will have a greater impact, since the buyer is spared the time and effort needed to seek out this information himself and is less likely to turn to competing brand advertisements to obtain the additional information.

In other words, buyers are generally more responsive to different brand advertisements while they are seeking information on these brands.
