Today the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays advertising is changing the way people use to market consumer goods and services. From our television to smartphones, we are exposed to tons of ads on a daily basis. These advertising affects our buying decisions, whether we really need it the

product

or not. Popular ads, including celebrities influence teenagers to purchase the particular thing as their idol is using it so they want to grab it as soon as possible. People are passionate about the stars so tend to follow them no matter how practically insignificant that item might is. Most of the

time

advertising creates a fad in the market, which refers to the trend for a limited period of

time

. Whenever a new

product

/service launches everyone wants to buy it as you see it everywhere you go or in the hands of someone you meet. For a particular amount of

time

people will react to

this

, but

then

they will forget about that

product

at all.

Also

, sometimes the

product

seems very beautiful in television screen that it drives people’s attention, in actual it might not be of the same quality, but as people considered it at the

first

time

, they saw so they will purchase it.

However

, it’s not only the advertising that drives someone’s attention to purchase a particular good, but it might be because of the irrational buying habits or higher disposable income of a person. In conclusion, advertising plays an important role in the decision-making process, but it’s not the sole reason for the high sales of consumer goods.
