Advertisement is a means of creating

awareness

about certain products and services that improve our lives. Some school of thoughts

have come

Suggestion

has come

up to say that advertising enhances impulse buying. In my opinion, I agree with the idea that advertisement informs us about new products and prices which improves life.

To begin

with, the main purpose of advertising products is to create public

awareness

of the goods in the market. Advertising aids public perception and acceptance of the products and services. If some products are not advertised, there won’t be public knowledge of them.

For instance

few years

Suggestion

a few years

ago, my family had to go on vacation to Miami and we needed a travel agent to help with our bookings. We got a good consultant from an Ad my dad saw in the daily magazine.

Also

, there are certain products that have been improved

as a result

of advancement in technology. These products can only be purchased by people who are aware of its upgrade.

In addition

, the various channels of advertisement enhance public

awareness

of product prices.

This

would protect consumers from

price

exploitation and ensure

price

reduction among competitors.

For instance

, a study in 2018 by the Small-Scale Association revealed that the

price

of all 250g of detergents

Suggestion

the Nigerian market

are

Suggestion

par.

This

was

as a result

of Klin advertising its products for N500, all other

producer

Suggestion

producers

of similar brand had to lower their

price

to the advertised

price

. In conclusion, advertising may have its own drawbacks,

however

, I agree that advertising is a useful tool to

improving

Suggestion

improve

the lives of people as product availability and

price

awareness

are made known to the public.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

Summary
Restatement of thesis
Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

In conclusion
To conclude
To summarize
Finally
In a nutshell
