Advertising is used regularly by companies to showcase their products to the masses. But there is a downside on how they show their products to people, ad 's are often seen in newspapers and on television, some of them are so ridiculously non-related to the product they are selling that it becomes a popularity contest between companies on who does the best ad, in specially on television. Advertising should not be permitted to show anything non-related to the product. Because it can seduce the audiences into buying something they don 't need. Ad 's can be used to fool people into buying something that 's harmful for them. Advertising should be all about the product, describing it and explaining on why you should buy it, but most of the time they are misleading. This mean that they only mention the name of the product and nothing else about it and show a bunch of non-related things within the product.
The major work for a company is to put their product at the top, and they do it by advertising. An ad is meant to persuade people into buying the product, in a perfect world this ad would be related to the product they sell, explaining what it does and why people should buy it, that 's what an ad is supposed to be. But in this competitive world that we are living companies will do everything to sell their products, and they do it everyday, when we watch television or read the newspapers we see non-product related ad 's, showing us pretty people consuming or using the product they are advertising, but why use the image of pretty people all the time? Well, because pretty people sell better, people will see the ad and they will feel obligated to buy the product just to fit in society with this people they show us. They will feel obligated to consume the product just because they show us a famous actor or actress using or consuming the product, implying that if you are not using our product you are not
