Advertising is done to call the public attention. Most advertising is done everyday. It pursuit people to think about the merchandise or even to buy the merchandise from their companies. For example JC Penny’s has catalogs, commercial for the company on TV, certain section in the newspapers, the Internet and, etc. Now, do they need to put all of them advertising out like that? My answer is yes, because that is where all the people look at to know what is going on the world. This means that people are going to look at or even glance at the advertisement. When it comes to the TV advertising they sometimes they take it over broad with the persuading people to buy the product. But, sometimes it brings humor to so people’s eyes and sometime it is not. Can you tell me how you feel about the advertising of JC Penny? How can some of the things that are shown to the people change their mind about getting the product?
JC Penny is a type of store that sell clothes for babies, toddlers, teenagers, men, women as well as shoes for everybody. They also sell furniture, kitchens supplies, bathroom supplies and etc. The clothes and shoes are advertised more than any thing in the store. What is the reason why the clothes and shoes are advertised more than the other items in the store? My answer is because these items are sold more and these items are what people want the most. How can we help sell more of the other items? My answer is that we can advertise them more. The more you advertise an item you might just sell more. For example I’ve had the some furniture for over ten years and never really thought about getting anything new. But, one day I’m watching television and a JC Penny commerical come on advertising their furniture. So I decided to get all new furniture and at the same time was cheaper than any other furniture store. This show you that advertising really does help, not only the business but, the customers as well.
Advertising is a key part in the world. Advertising gets every-body’s attention some way, some how. I do not think that it would be a world without any type of advertisement. Who knows, what the advertising business might do in a couple of years from now.

In a way, I disagree with you. I think the reason furniture, kitchen, and bathroom supplies are advertised less is because those are the items that they know are more essential than new clothes and shoes. Therefore, whether or not they advertise those products often, the viewers of the advertisements are still going to purchase them. On the other hand, new clothes and shoes aren’t AS necessary as furniture, kitchen, and bathroom supplies, etc. The consumers need to know that they are being sold something new, inventive, and “cool” to spend extra money on things they already have: clothes and shoes. Otherwise, they aren’t going to buy them.

Alright, SW. So your saying that without advertising, people wouldn’t know where to the buy the things they need and its a way to learn about new products, right? I can definitely see that.
