A Major Advantage of Advertising on Television?

Nowadays we can see advertisements on Television every day. Some people believe that advertising on television can bring us benefits, but others don't think so. In my opinion, I am in favor of the advertising on television.?

There are two reasons, I think, for the growing number of advertisement on TV. First, in a competitive economy, the consumer usually has the choice of several different brands of the same product. Thus, manufacturers are confronted with a problem-How to keep sales high enough to stay in business. They solve this problem by advertising. Through advertising, each manufacturing company tries to convince consumers that its product is special. Second, most consumers are interested in advertisement. They wish to get from TV advertisement the first?hand information about new products, which enables them to choose the one they like best. As a result, there is a sharp increase in advertisement on the TV screen.?

In conclusion, TV advertising plays a very important role in our economic behavior. With abundant information available on TV, we can make sensible choices as consumers.?
