Personal response

“Advertising is everywhere you look, whether it is in the newspaper you pick up daily or on that billboard you see while driving down the highway. Some people may say that they are not in fact influenced by the advertising that is thrown at them each day, and that they do not fall into it, but everyone does.”

Advertising is actually everywhere you look. At the present day, advertising is an important part of our society; it actually shows as how we are, or what we like, our tendencies and interests.  This is why we can’t avoid its influence. The whole society is being guided by the new tendencies and products shown on advertisings, which is, for me, a bad and also a good thing. I believe this “force” that convince us on buying certain products is somehow a bad thing, because it shows you in a hidden way of course, that if you don’t follow what advertisings show, then you are not part of society. For example, clothes we use. The way people dress have been changing with the years, as enterprises what it to. If advertisings of clothing market shows us what is coming up next in clothes, then we will probably buy those clothes in order to feel that we are part of society.

If we look at the bright side of advertising, they allows us to be informed about the direction different tendencies are taking, and they also shows us a variety of products that we can have access to; we are able to pick one product instead of others that are similar, to decide what we like, and to see what people like, because as we said before, advertising is a mirror of society.
