Some people say that advertising is extremely successful at persuading us to buy things. Other people think that advertising is so common that we no longer pay attention to it. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
It is true that advertising plays an essential role in attracting
people
and encouraging them to purchase products. However
, some people
consider that people
gradually pay less attention to advertisements because we can see them everywhere. Personally, I think that people
have not realized that their passion for shopping is partly influenced by ads
.
We have to recognize that advertising is an effective tool which unconsciously affects our decision for shopping. For example
, companies always tend to advertise their novel products and advanced techniques, helping them stand out in the masses of competition. As a consequence, people
are more likely to purchase these impressive goods. Besides
, with the development of electronic facilities and the internet, ads
have been inserted into all aspects of our lives. When we open the screens and walk on the streets, we can easily see the obvious slogans. Therefore
, individuals choose to ignore these advertisements and consider that ads
do not affect them anymore.
However
, in my opinion, these people
underestimate the power of ads
. As some literature reported, people
can remember steadily when they watch or listen to something in ads
. The next
time when they plan to purchase a certain good, they buy the product which always exists in ads
, with great possibility. Meanwhile, people
use social media and platforms frequently where the content is full of all types of advertisements, which unconsciously influences them. Instead
, The fundamental point I think should be considered is that people
are supposed to recognize the fake information underlying ads
, and thus
avoid being cheated.
In conclusion, people
are always influenced by advertising even though they tend to ignore them. When ads
attempt to impact our decisions about shopping, we should learn to distinguish what is good.Submitted by 1998v7 on
