Advertising is all around us and an unavoidable part of everyone’s life. Some people say that advertising is a positive part of our lives while others say it is negative. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Advertising is playing an important role in modern societies. While it is true that it can bring several benefits to consumers as well as to the local countries, I firmly believe that its emergence in today’s world does more harm than good in social life.
There are some positive aspects of advertising in modern life. Firstly, consumers will have more opportunities to access to product information before deciding to purchase. This can improve the possibilities of making the right decision and lead to customer satisfaction. In addition, advertising can also enhance the economy of the local countries. By promoting products and services internationally, some advertisers will attract overseas customers to their local market. Therefore, this can also create chances for the countries to introduce their image to foreign tourists.
However, advertising also have many negative influences on human’s life. First of all, many advertisers are trying to use misleading information in order to sell their products to customers. This can lead to serious consequences to the society. For instance, false advertising of medicines or nutritional supplements can be highly dangerous to consumer’s health. Furthermore, advertisements are one of the main distractions in working life. While searching for information on the internet, employees may easily see pop-up advertisements in some web pages. As a result, their productivity at work will be reduced. In addition, many advertisers are also trying to include their advertisements in the middle of a movie to attract more customers. This may cause annoyance to many people since their favourite programmes have to stop in the middle.
All in all, it seems to me that advertising can have several negative effects to the societies. Although advertising is necessary in modern life with several benefits, it can distract many people from concentrating on their work.
