Advertisment

      Advertisements can be seen everywhere we go. You see it when you wake up, you see it when you go to sleep. Advertising has risen relentlessly. It wasn't like in the past where you see ads being placed on transportation, bulletins and venues.Advertisements has risen dramatically and fiercely that we aren't realizing the insanity of it all.
      Everyday people see an estimated 12 billion displays, 3 million radio commercials, and more than 200,000 TV commercials. It has become part of our daily routine. You can't hide from it or just give in.
There's going to be another ad around the corner that your going to give in. There's an ad on everything,for children,adults any audience.
       Advertisements has been popping up everywhere that now its in supermarkets where you shop for food. It's affecting our quality of life.There's is no place that you go that you won't find an ad. As said by a company executive from VideoCarte, "The most powerful micromarketing medium available today." The hype is going to get worse and worse.
       From my own experience, advertisements had affected a lot of my decisions. For example, ever since the new iphone that came out, I wasn't sure if I was going to get it or not because of all its problems. I was going to wait for another phone but since the day it came out there were advertisements all over the place.It was on tv,billboards, radio, showing all of it's features.It was hard to resist.It catapult me into making my final decision into getting one. As said by the author of "Hype" he used to hear "Beethoven's Ninth Symphony play in his head. Now he heares the kid singing Oscar Meyer wiener song."
