Advertising Easier - Advertising is providing information, calling attention to, and making known something that you want to sell or promote. Harder - Advertising is a message designed to promote or sell a product, a service, or an idea.
Advertising reaches people through varied types of mass communication.
In everyday life, people come into contact with many different kinds of advertising. Printed ads are found in newspapers and magazines. Poster ads are placed in buses, subways, and trains. Neon signs are scattered along downtown streets. Billboards dot the landscape along our highways.
