What is Advertising?
Advertising is a paid form of persuasive communication that uses mass and
interactive media to reach broad audiences in order to connect an identified
sponsor with buyers (a target audience), provide information about products
(goods, services, and ideas), and interpret the product features in terms of the
customer’s needs and wants.
Advertising’s Basic Functions

Identifies a product and/or the store where it’s sold.
• Information
New printing technology made commercial messages available to the masses
• Persuasion
