In the following paragraphs, let us find out how advertising caters to everyone commercially as well as non-commercially.

The availability of a certain product or service in the market is informed through an advertising campaign. Through the very ad campaign, the advertiser on behalf of the brand owner also encourages the target customers to buy or adopt the product or service. For this, the advertiser highlights the key features and benefits provided by the brand or service. Through television advertising, print advertising, outdoor advertising, radio advertising etc, advertisers connect with potential customers. An advertising network of a brand or service is indeed important to keep the business upfront and also to enhance revenue. Some of the main objectives of brand advertising are-

- To generate awareness about the presence of a product in the market
