Consumers are faced with increasing numbers of advertisements from competing companies. To what extent do you think are consumers influenced by advertisements? What measures can be taken to protect them?
It has been reported that consumers today encounter more
advertisements
than they used to. In my opinion, this
phenomenon has brought about tremendous disadvantages to customers
as it prompts them to spend more money. The customers
, therefore
, should be protected by practising self-control.
In the past, people
were faced with advertisements
on a few occasions. Back then
, mainstream media
, such
as television and newspapers, were some of the only ways for companies to introduce their products and persuade customers
to buy them. As a result
, if people
had seen a wanted item through a television or newspaper advert, they would have had a long time before they could see it again and thus
may reconsider whether the product was necessary. However
, advertisements
have changed significantly in the last
few decades and have appeared in every social media
platform people
access. As customers
constantly use those media
websites, they have to face the product adverts many times and eventually succumb to the urge to buy them. For example
, Vietnamese youngsters have spent more money on unnecessary, low-quality items because of pop-up advertisements
on their Facebook pages.
As most of those advertisements
usually do not violate any national law, I believe governments cannot interfere with the way companies sell their goods. Therefore
, customers
may have to learn self-control and budget management themselves to avoid the adverse impact of increasing adverts. For instance
, they could reduce their hours online to prevent advertisement encounters. If they cannot use social media
less, they must shut down adverts as soon as they see them. Additionally
, financial considerations should be taken to decide if a product is worth buying before its purchase.
In conclusion, facing rising advertisements
leads to more expenses among people
. I believe that in this
case, self-discipline and deep consideration should be practised to mitigate unnecessary expenditure.Submitted by tranbaongoc231007 on
