People buy a product if it fulfills their needs; there is no need for advertisement. To what extent do you agree or disagree with it? (personal viewpoint)

It is often the case that a person encounters innumerable

advertisements

in his/her all day long, and

this

often leads to purchases that are sometimes unnecessary. Some people

then

hold a belief that

advertisements

serve no useful purposes and there is no need for them, saying that

customers

are wise enough and will make a purchase when the product can accommodate their needs. From my perspective,

this

is a rather crude and unsophisticated view and may even adversely affect our

society

. Admittedly, the enormous number of

advertisements

and the seemingly beneficial functions of a product/service which one sees may encourage consumerism in his or her own thoughts. And

that is

the contributing factor of the throw-away

society

among the majority of young people of late.

However

, to say that there is no need for advertising somewhat underestimates its beneficial impacts on both consumers and

of a product, which might indeed suit their needs and their economic status better than any other

products

they have had prior knowledge of.

Secondly

, we should think of advertising not in terms of promoting unnecessary commodities but in terms of publicizing little-known ones.

This

might be essential for the upstarts, who are innovative and want to sell their newly developed

products

is the one and only way to make them known and help them reach

customers

. All too often, a young good corporation could not survive the fierce competition from well-established ones, and
