E'ecutive Summary
Advertising has -layed a major role in consumer marketing* and has ena+led com-anies to meet
communication and other marketing o+jectives1 Ty-ically* advertising is used to inform*
-ersuade* and remind consumers1 t im-ortantly reinforces their attitudes and -erce-tions1
Advertising has +een a target of criticism for decades1 Advertising has +een hailed as a
ca-italistic virtue* an engine of free market economy* and a -romoter of consumer 2elfare1 ts
detractors on the other hand accuse it of an array of sins ranging from an economic 2aste to
-urveying of harmful -roducts* from se3ism to deceit and mani-ulation* from triviality to
intellectual and moral -ollution 90ittal* '::);1 Advertising is seen +y many as a threat to the
cultural identity and self realisation of many develo-ing countries" it +rings to many -eo-le alien
ethical values* it may deviate consumer demands in develo-ing countries to areas 2hich can
inhi+it develo-ment -riorities< it affects and can often deform 2ays of life and lifestyles 90ac
Bride* ':$#;1 Advertising is considered unethical 2hen it degrades rival=s -roduct or su+stitute
-roduct* gives misguiding information* gives false information* conceals information that vitally
affects human life 9e1g1* side effects of drugs;* makes e3aggerated claims* is o+scene or immoral
or is against +road national interest1 While com-arative advertising may +e considered legal and
its 2ides-read use may have granted it acce-tance* the de+ate on 2hether or not it is ethical* still
continues1 There is no unanimity among advertising -rofessionals and marketing clientsregarding such >uestiona+le -ractices1 7o2ever* all agree to one as-ect that 2hile considering
the >uestion of unethical -ractices* the focus must +e to safeguard the interest of +uyers at the
micro level and the society at the macro level as their satisfaction is the key to the marketing
success1 The criticism has +een related not only to its intended effects on society* +ut also to its
unintended effects1 0ost of the criticism has come from ?elite? o+servers of society1 n contrast*
the general -u+lic has historically vie2ed advertising in a more -ositive 2ay1 Whereas criticisms
of advertising have generally originated from the highest socio&economic classes since the
earliest days of the modern marketing era and +efore* lo2er and middle class -eo-le have
historically +een more -ositive to2ard advertising 9Bauer @ reyser* ':$< Fullerton @ 8evett*

.ach advertisement is a s-ecific communication that must +e effective to customers for their
+rand choice* not just for one customer* +ut for many target +uyers1 This means that s-ecific
o+jectives should +e set for each -articular advertisement cam-aign1 Advertising is a form of
-romotion and like a -romotion< the o+jectives of advertising should +e s-ecific1 This re>uires
that the target consumers should +e s-ecifically identified and that the effect 2hich advertising is
intended to have u-on the consumer should +e clearly indicated1 The o+jectives of advertising
2ere traditionally stated in terms of direct sales1 8o2* it is to vie2 advertising as having
communication o+jectives that seek to inform -ersuade and remind -otential customers of the2orth of the -roduct1 Advertising seeks to condition the consumer so that heGshe may have a
favora+le reaction to the -romotional message1 Advertising o+jectives serve as guidelines for the
-lanning and im-lementation of the entire advertising -rogram1 A -erson could have -articular
choice a+out +rands1 Advertising o+jective is to o-en the Brand=s >uality and good sides1

assumed to learn a+out the true >uality of a -roduct over time 9.rdem and Keane '::;1 .arly
studies of advertising effects relied on aggregate data and time series models to estimate
carryover effects 9/larke ':C;* and more recent studies have investigated advertising effects
using scanner&-anel data 9Eedrick and Dufryden '::'* 7orsky* 0isra and 8elson %##;1
Advertising is the no -ersonal communication of information usually -aid for and usually
-ersuasive in nature a+out -roducts* services or ideas +y identified s-onsors through the various
media?9Bovee* '::%;1 According to the legal definition of advertising* the term advertising
generally refers to -aid forms of communication that are distri+uted at the initiative of economic
o-erators 9+y means of television* radio* ne2s-a-ers* +anners* mail* nternet* etc1; as -art of an
intentional and systematic effort to affect individual attitudes and choices in relation to the
consum-tion of goods and services1
The 2ord advertising originates from a Latin 2ord advertise* 2hich means to turn to 9Kotler*
%##,;1 The dictionary meaning of the term is to give -u+lic notice or to announce -u+licly1
Advertising may +e defined as the -rocess of +uying s-onsor&identified media s-ace or time in
order to -romote a -roduct or an idea1 The American 0arketing Association* /hicago* has
defined advertising as any form of non&-ersonal -resentation or -romotion of ideas* goods or
services* +y an identified s-onsor1
Advertising is the method used +y +usinesses* com-anies and other organisations to -romote
their goods and services to the -u+lic1 The ultimate aim of advertising is to increase sales +y
sho2ing these goods and services in a -ositive light1 Advertising is a form of communicationfor
marketing and used to encourage or -ersuade an audience 9vie2ers* readers or listenersuite e3-ensive
2hen related to other advertising effectiveness measures yet it is -ossi+le to isolate advertising

these advertising decision areas1 ne e3-erimental a--roach to measuring the sales effectiveness
of advertising is test marketing1
7!8 +ndirect /easures
As it is very difficult to measure the direct effect of advertising on com-any=s -rofits or sales*
most firms rely heavily on indirect measures1 These measures do not evaluate the effects of
advertisements directing on sales or -rofits +ut all other factors such as customer a2areness or
attitude or customer recall of advertising message affect the sales or -rofits or goals of the
+usiness indirectly1 !es-ite the uncertainties a+out the relationshi- +et2een the intermediate
effects of advertising and the ultimate results* there is no other alternative +ut to use indirect
measures1 The most commonly used measures are N
7i8 E'*osure to Advertisement
n order to +e effective* the advertisement must gain e3-osure1 The management is concerned
a+out the num+er of target audiences 2ho see or hear the organi4ation message set in the
advertisement1 Without e3-osure* advertisement is +ound to failure1 0arketers or advertisers
may o+tain an idea of e3-osure generated +y the medium +y e3amining its circulation or
audience data 2hich reveal the num+er of co-ies of the maga4ine* ne2s-a-er or journal sold the
num+er of -ersons -assing the +ill+oards or riding in transit facilities* or the num+er of -ersons
living in the television vie2ing or radio listening area* and the num+er of -ersons s2itching on
their T1H1 and radio sets at various -oints of time1 This num+er can +e estimated +y intervie2ing
the num+ers of the audience for different media1
7ii8 Attention or 6eca$$ of Advertising /essage Content
This is one of the 2idely used measures of advertising results1 Under this measure* a recall of the
message content among a s-ecified grou- or grou-s or -ros-ective customers is measured 2ithin
%) hours of the e3-osure of the advertisement1
Attention value is the chief >uality of the advertising co-y the advertisements cannot +e said to
+e effective unless they attract the attention of the target consumers1 There are t2o methods for
evaluating the attention getting value of the advertisements1 ne is -re&test and the other is -ost&
test1 n a -re&test evaluation* the consumers are asked to indicate the e3tent to 2hich they
-

recogni4e or recall the advertisement* they have already seen1 This test is conducted in the
la+oratory setting1 7ere consumers read* hear or listen to the advertisement and then researchers
ask >uestion regarding the advertisement just to test the recall and then evaluate it1 n -ost&test
method* the consumers are asked >uestions a+out the indication of recognition or recall after the
advertisement has +een run1 These measures assume that customers can recall or recogni4e 2hat
they have vie2ed or listened to1 Harious mechanical devices are +eing used in the 2estern
countries 2hich -rovide indices of attention such as eye&camera etc1
7iii8 Brand A&areness
The marketers 2ho rely heavily on advertising often a--raise its effectiveness +y measuring the
customer=s a2areness a+out the -articular -roduct or +rand1 The assum-tion of this ty-e of
measure is that there is a direct relationshi- +et2een the advertisements and the a2areness1 This
ty-e of measure is also su+ject to the same criticisms as is a--lica+le to direct measures of
effectiveness 9sales measures +ecause a2areness is also not the direct result of the
advertisements1 t is also affected +y many other factors1 But* for ne2 -roducts* changes in
a2areness can often +e attri+uted to the influence of advertising1
7iv8 Com*rehension
/onsumers generally use advertisements as a means of o+taining information a+out the -roduct*
+rand or the manufacturer1 They cannot +e informed unless they com-rehend the message 9gras-
the message mentally and understand it fully;1 Harious tests for valuating com-rehension are
availa+le N
ne is recall tests N an indicator of com-rehension +ecause it is evident that consumers recall
2hat they com-rehend1 Another measure of the varia+le is to ask >uestions a+out su+jects ho2
much they have com-rehended a message they have recently heard or seen1 ne may em-loy
some2hat im-recise test of the com-rehension of a ne2s-a-er and radio advertisement1 ne
may ask ty-ical target consumers from time to time such >uestions like O2hat did you think of
our ne2 commercialP= and O!id it get the message across=P The ans2ers of these >uestions 2ill
-rovide sufficient insight into advertising decision making1
7v8 Attitude Change
Since advertising is considered to +e one 2ay of influencing the state of the mind of the audience
to2ards a -roduct* service or organi4ation* the results are very often measured in terms of
-

attitudes among grou-s e3-osed to advertising communication1 Several measures are used
ranging from asking the >uestions a+out 2illingness to +uy the likelihood of +uying to the
measurement of the e3tent to 2hich s-ecific attri+utes 9such as modern or ne2; are associated
2ith a -roduct1
7vi8 Action
ne o+jective of advertisement may +e assumed to +e to stimulate action or +ehavior1 The action
or intention to take an action may +e measured on the intention to +uy measuring instrument1
Under this ty-e of measure* consumers are asked to res-ond 2hy they are interested in
-urchasing the -roduct or +rand1 ne ty-e of action that advertisers attem-t to induce is +uying
+ehavior1 The assum-tion is that if an increase in sales follo2s a decrease in advertising
e3-enditure* the change in sales levels are good indicators of the effectiveness of advertising1
Logic suggests that measurement of sales is -refera+le to other measurements1
Thus* these a+ove measures 9direct or indirect; are used to evaluate the effectiveness of
advertisements1 t seems from the analysis of the a+ove methods of measuring effectiveness that
directly or indirectly changes in sales or -rofits are taken as the measuring rod of the
effectiveness of the advertising1
The final e3ternal factor in the -lanning frame2ork concerns environmental factor social* legal*
and glo+al1 La2 for+ids dece-tive advertising1 ne solution is to create +rand advertising that is
vague and contains little s-ecific information1 7o2ever* such an a--roach can result not only in
ineffective advertising< +y it can lessen the social value of advertising +y reducing the amount for
useful information that it -rovides to society1 Thus* and advertiser 2ho attem-ts to -rovide
s-ecific* relevant information must +e 2ell a2are of advertising regulation1
.ven more difficult consideration for -eo-le involved in the advertising effort is +road social and
economic issues1 Another concern is that advertising* es-ecially 2hen it is more irritating than
entertaining* is an intrusion into an already e3cessively -olluted environment1 A 2hole set of
rules is emerging to cover advertising directed at children* and advertising for -roducts such as
alcohol and cigarettes* and the use of environmental and health claims in advertising1
Thus advertising has a tremendous im-act on international marketing and the t2o conce-ts
therefore go hand in hand and are de-endent on each other1
