Defining advertising

What is advertising?

When it comes to advertising, it's all about catching peoples attention and getting them to buy that product. Advertising is a non personal communication of information usually paid for and usually persuasive in nature about products, services, or ideas by identified sponsors through the various media. Nowadays, companies are using celebrities to sell their products because they know it's a great way to increase profits.


Does it work for me?

Of course it does. I have bought products in the past just because of who was endorsing it.


My favorite commercial out right now is the Rhythm Heaven Nintendo Commercial featuring Beyonce. Check it out below!



The main reason i like this commercial is because Beyonce is featured in it. I'm a HUGE fan of hers! I have actually thought about purchasing that specific Nintendo and game just because she is advertising it.
