People buy good products that work, therefore, advertising is unnecessary and is no more than a form of entertainment. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#people #products #work #form #entertainment
Determining the impact of advertisement is an ongoing debate among customers. Some
people
 advocate the idea that advertising is just entertainment because
people
 buy good and useful
products
.
On the other hand
, others argue that advertising is still useful to persuade
people
 to buy
products
. I completely disagree with the notion because advertisements can help the public to know about good
products
.
First
, there is no doubt that consumers always try to find good
products
.
However
,
people
 may not find
products
 that they want to use, even though several companies have already developed and fabricated the goods that users want. Advertisement will be useful in that case because it can deliver some information about good
products
 to buyers.
Therefore
, conducting advertisements plays a crucial role in helping purchasers choose good items.
Second
, many businesses pour tremendous money into developing good
products
.
For example
, one popular smartphone company, Apple, spent almost 150 million dollars to develop their
first
 smartphone.
Therefore
, they should sell at least millions of smartphones to avoid loss. In that case, companies can introduce items to the public and earn a higher profit with several promotional commercial methods.
Consequently
, businesses need to use commercial methods to promote sales and avoid loss. To sum up, advertising is not just a form of entertainment, but
also
 an effective promotion method today. Advertisements not only can deliver information of good items to consumers who find good
products
, but are
also
 a useful method to gain higher profit to avoid loss from investments of
products
.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
