Many people believe that advertising can have negative effects on customers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Advertisements have become an industry over recent years. A number of people think that advertisements affect negatively customers. I completely agree with

this

view and

this

essay will discuss why advertising has harmful effects on people despite a few potential advantages. On the one hand, there are some concerning effects of advertisements on people. So, how adverts affect people in a negative way? Well-designed advertisement strategies change the buying decisions of customers, and

then

people want to buy products and services which they do not actually need.

In other words

, commercials promote people to consume everything by telling people that they feel better.

As a result

of that, people impulsively spend too much money, which result in the fact that people get into debt.

For instance

, with the new methods of advertising strategies, the number of people, who are in debt, increased dramatically in Turkey in 2000s.

Therefore

, it is a justified idea that advertisements have negative effects on consumers.

On the other hand

, it can be clearly seen that advertisings,

however

, may have beneficial sides in some extent. Some advertisings

such

as ones which emphasize the importance of gender equality, or the environmental protection, can play a positive role and raise awareness about social and environmental issues.

For example

, a TV commercial depicting gender equality in sports went into viral on social media, and millions of people watched it within only a day.

Thus

, ads might affect positively consumers. In conclusion, advertisements are a part of our life.

This

essay discussed why ads have indisputable negative impacts on costumers. I fully support the view that advertisements affect the lives of people in the negative way because of the cause of debt.
