The Powerful Ways of Ads

What kind of power does advertising have on you,me,the entire world? Advertising has plenty of power of people. Ads are everywhere!They are on billboards,magazines,television,and radio.Seeing ads such as covergirl,aeropostale,and different shoe ads cause us to indulge in shopping for such products.Victoria’s Secret is an example.Victoria’s Secret is a somewhat expensive store yet women love it.The name is big and that is what makes women want to shop there.We see the bra commercials and fashion shows and we flock to the mall so we can be seen in the new biofit bra.Victoria’s Secret does have quality though.
               
 Advertisements include everybody to get viewers to notice the ad.Women are used in most ads because of the greatest “sex sells” phenomenon.Women are shown in ads with little to no clothing and they are focused on more than the product.They are used in beer ads and other men based products.Women can win over men with their sexiness and it is used to lure men closer to products that need to be sold.
There are ads that have positive messages but they are hard to notice because people tend to focus more on ads with half naked people.Some positive ads are Aids ads that show superwoman dying and with people engaging in sex who are headless.These are powerful ads because they really speak to people and encourage them to have safe sex.Superwoman is very powerful yet Aids got her.
All ads have power because we are all affected by thwm.They either encourage or discourage and people pay very much attention to them.
