Advertisements, as an unavoidablecomponent of daily lives, are widely acceptedreluctantly by an increasing number of people. Some consumers believe that advertising onlypromotes the sales of products but not the quality, however, I personally disagree with thisviewpoint.
Advertisements, such as television commercials and flyers are well defined advertisingmethods to the public. Undoubtedly, the main purpose is to pursue the increased sales ofgoods in order to achieve financial profit. For example, KFC is advertising that it cooks the bestchicken in the world to persuade more people to buy its fast food and Toyota has also doubledits sale of cars by increasing the investment in advertising through various types of media. Bothof these examples seem to demonstrate that advertising only improves the quantity of salesto drive up economical benefits.
Nevertheless, when one genuinely looks into the contents of these advertisements, theirproducts are essentially improving in terms of performance and quality. Using these twoexamples again for instance, the taste of KFC chicken is from good to irresistible andmeanwhile, GPS, ABS brakes , airbag safety systems and even key-less start ignition, are alltypes of new inventions that have been adapted by Toyota to deliver a safer and morecomfortable car.
In order to show their attractions in advertisements, they are required to provide betterquality and service as advertisements are considered as a promise that sellers have made tothe public. To be a responsible and moral corporation, they have to fulfill what they promisedin advertising.
To sum up, advertising not only increases sales, but more importantly, as a moralcommitment from the seller, it improves the performance and quality as well.
