Vance Staple, Katie Perry, and Imagine Dragons, these are just a few of the worlds most popular artists using there platforms to promote everyday products. Occasionally it can be good or bad if an artist uses their music in advertising. Most of the time artist are taking a risk by trying to promote their music in commercials. I would oppose the use of artist’s music in advertising because they might lose their image, corporations could take over, however organizations can be good business partners in the long run.
To start with, advertising can be bad for artist because they might lose their image by being to involved in advertisements. Fans fall in love with artist from the beginning and if they change something up, fans will start to dislike the artist. Advertisement can work better for smaller bands or artists because they are trying to get noticed. According to Carter, “Alex Scally, instrumentalists for the indie-pop duo Beach House, notes

For example, once you sign an endorsement, it is like having someone over you, watching your every move. Once you sign that contract your music might be everywhere replaying or some U.S presidential candidate might start singing your song and that would not be inconvenient. On the other hand, organizations can be good because they can help the cost of an artists tour, while promoting them. For example, an artist can go on tour which costs a lot alone, but a organization can help pay the cost. Some people can be like the Black Eyed Pea’s, where they made advertisement their priority. According to Coates, “Now a household name, the group discovered that the more invested they became in marketing and branding, the more successful they became with fans.” This quote conveys how one group had plenty of success with fans because advertising and branding. If an artist or group gets out there more, they might have more success, but not all the
Sponsorship and advertisement music more or less do good for artists. From loss of money from album sales, advertising and sponsorships in music often put money in the artist's pocket. This is good for most artists struggling from album sales to make a living.
Ads if used correctly are what will draw the target audience the makers are attempting to reach. Simply using a catchy catch phrase could make something people view as a horrible experience such as getting a flu shot into something necessary. Ad campaigns are successful when using persuasive media techniques to draw in their attended audience.
"Supports of advertising argue that advertising educates consumers, equipping them with the information they need to make informed purchase decisions" (O 'Guinn, Allen, & Semenik, 2015, p. 79). This holds a lot of validity. Advertisements do keep the consumers informed of new products and services, and how these products or services can positively impact their lives. Without educating the consumer on the new product or service and its benefits, consumers will tend to just stick to the brands and products that they know. Advertisements also reduce product search time, "that is, the amount of time an individual spends to search for desired products and services is reduced because of advertising, access to the Web, and mobile messages from advertisers" (O 'Guinn, Allen, & Semenik, 2015, p. 79). Consumers benefit from being educated on products and services, and advertisements make this education a much quicker process. Prior to these product and service advertisements, consumers would have to do in depth research on their own or make uninformed decisions about product purchasing, which could lead to buyers remorse. This also saves the consumer money on travel and research costs (O 'Guinn, Allen, & Semenik, 2015, p.
For a start, sponsorships can be risky. For example, overexposure can take a negative effect on the artist and his or her song. Many people are tired of hearing the same song on the radio, television, and at the movies after a countless amount of times. According to paragraph 8 of “Selling Out Not Worth the Risk,” Moby, an electronic artist, released his album called Play in 1999. He licensed each one of his 18 tracks. Fans then lost interest because they heard this everywhere on the radio, on commercials and movies. In many other cases, a record label who owns the rights to the artist’s music licenses the song to another company. Once this happens, the artist would not have any control over how the music can be used. According to paragraph 9
The definition of advertising is outdated. It was previously, to endorse a product and praise goodness to induce the public to buy. They are now brainwashing consumers to buy their products using images to sell the product. The advertiser’s aim is to make the product look as good as it can through an attractive image. There are statistics, which I obtained from a Dolly Magazine, 16th May 2000, which proves that one out of four people in Australia buy a product because of the image shown in the advertisment. The images are eye catching and mention something important about the product. Ultimately it is true that, “Advertisers sell images, not products.”
Advertising works. If a product is not advertised consumers will be completely unaware of its existence, and products with more and ‘better’ advertising are more likely to sell better than their competitors. Is this because advertising persuades them into buying products or does advertising simply help consumers validate their purchases making them more likely to buy again?
One of the huge international industries in the world is advertising. It promotes ideas and products to people using the media. A lot of people feel overwhelmed by the huge number of ads that bombard them every day. Advertisements now appear not only on television; they also appear on radio, billboards, Internet, cell phones and numerous other ways. Advertising in my view is a competitive industry. Advertisers work hard to create and sell to their targeted audience. To do this, advertisers need to create ideas that would interest their audience. In order for the advertisements to be successful it needs to be effective.
Although many people do not realize how many advertisements they see each day, the advertisements seem to be doing their job of keeping sales up and people constantly interested in new things. Advertisements can be found in an infinite amount of places including road signs, bumper stickers, clothing logos, radio, television, news papers, and internet. And, no matter how noticeable or subtle the ad may be, people are still influenced into consuming more products everyday thus helping out the economy.
According to article "Advantages of Advertising: 12 Major Advantages of Advertising", author Smriti Chand, advertisement gives a lot of different benefits related with information and awareness. Since ads is all about giving information and buying good, advertisement plays a role of introducing a new product and services in the market (Chand, par 1). For instance without advertisement and posters online, in the newspapers or on the Internet to name a few, not many people would find out about new Apple iPhone series cell phone or that ACDC band is coming to town. In addition it stimulates people to buy more, as an example, the more new goods and services people know about, they are more likely to go and check the information they received (Chand, par 3). Although, different ads educates the consumers by promoting new products and services that can help people on a daily basis, while political ads play a big educational role too (Chand, par 6). For instance, political ads. Those give general information about each candidate, if its voting season, or some general awareness about what politics think about daily issues. Furthermore, advertisement also provides information about better quality products and brands. According to Forbes magazine article "The World 's Most Valuable Brands of 2014", the better the name is known the better the good and the service people think they provide. For instance, many popular
To sum up, advertising is one of the important ways to help the marketers as well as consumers. It is good for the companies as they can attract more consumers and as a result increase the profit of the company. It also has many benefits for the consumers as they can raise their knowledge and awareness and accordingly improve their lifestyle. Conversely, it may have negative effects on consumer behavior by creating unhealthy behavior such as alcohol consumption and lowering self-confidence through beauty advertisements. According to what has been written above, obviously, advertisements may have both positive and negative effects on consumer behavior.
The primary role of advertising is to inform potential customers of the products and services in the market and convince them to make a purchase. Through advertisements customers are informed of new products, their role, their benefit and the prices at which they are being made available to the customer. It is a technique used to influence people's minds and encourage more sales.
Advertising is everywhere. "Advertising is a system of communication which goods and services are brought to the attention of the general public"(Raymond Williams, 1997). All audiences will have these images in their mind and have impression on the advertisement messages. It is a very effective and common way to promote their products to the whole society. Advertising spend money on buying the advertising time to get access to their target audiences. It will reach a lot of their target audiences by their advertisements. The effect is depends on their advertisements design and how they establish the "needs" in consumers ' mind. Advertising is a mass culture. Most of the people have seen advertisements in different social media. People can
But I think that successful and beloved companies use advertising for more than just promotion of certain products. Advertising can be a touch point for customers to develop feelings or perceptions of a brand, and when companies think deeper and use advertising to communicate their brand, it can create loyal, cultural customers. When companies use this approach to advertising I personally enjoy their advertisements more. But not all companies do, and for me this is when ads get annoying. Meaningless, Mindless, and Poorly thought out ads are no fun to watch, and cause disdain for products and companies instead of higher sales. The placement of ads also effect my reaction to them. Ads that are integrated into content, instead of interrupting it, cause me to have more positive feelings toward the promoted
Advertising creates a proper background for personal selling.it helps to make and attraction in the consumer mind. That will make them to visit the shop to see and or buy the product.
Everywhere you look, you will always see some form of advertisement. Whether it is a, billboard, poster, commercial, etc., it is almost everywhere. Basically, all the promotions aim to inform people about certain things; while this may seem like an attack on the subconscious mind of society it is an extremely effective way to “spread the word” about something; it has more benefits than we may think. Advertisements create easy and effective ways to collect donations for charities, keep the government up-to-date with new trends to fit societies new needs and wants, and can help people get the news that they need to stay informed and safe in the world today.
