Print Advertising has been one of the oldest means of product endorsements. For more than 400 years, it is able to become one of the most used types of advertisements. Originated from England, the first customer of print advertisement is the migration of the English to the United States. This timeline is dated to be the era when United States is still a colony of the English. Thus, this innovation in advertising was able to reach the U.S. through the newspapers printed with advertisement. (History of Advertising in Print Media, 2012)

These connections between brands led to an increase in consumer trust and therefor an increase in overall demand. Advertisers also were looking for more effective methods of information distribution at this time (1870’s) and the newspaper just happened to be gaining major national popularity. According to page 91, the “Lady’s Home Journal” was the first major publication to market goods for housewives/ women in 1883, and in less than two decades by 1900, most major newspapers had completely switched focus to heavy advertising. The availability of a cheap, fixed rate on ad space meant that business owners would buy out multiple pages sometimes, turning the newspaper into a hub of not only national and local information, but also consumer news and countless advertisements. In order to introduce all of these revolutionary goods to the first waves of consumers, marketers of the late 19th century focused on getting mass amounts of information across to consumers rather than trying to gain attention or interest. Strasser highlights that this is why many 19th century ads, compared to their siblings of the 20th century, are much more wordy and descriptive- explaining uses, giving quality assurances, and sometimes included product background and development (illus.

The author of this book Bruce Barton was a partner in a successful advertising firm during the 1920’s. This was a time when the industry of advertising was under going some major changes. These changes had a lot to do with a number of factors the first of which being the post war prosperity this meant people had more money than they ever had before. Another one of these factors had to do with the high number of teens who were now attending high school, this proved to be important because it created a whole other market which hadn’t existed before. One more factor was the advances made in transportation and communication, these advances allowed goods, people, and information to travel long distances relatively quickly intern allowing companies to grow large enough to spread their services nationally. Still another important factor was the invention of financing, this allowed people to pay for durable objects (large objects that would last a couple of years) with affordable installments or payments. But the biggest changes were the actual advertising practices themselves, many of which were pioneered by Barton and his associates, and didn’t become norms in advertising until after the release of Bartons book “The Man Nobody Knows” in 1924. This book served not only as a manual on how to advertise more affectively but also as an example of good advertising itself.
Advertisements would soon, also, become a major factor in mass media and development in America during the early 1900’s. Advertising became one Americas stepping stones to put the power of media into their control. This provided political parties, ...

Written to inform others on the past 100 years of advertisement, “The Hard Sell” allows us to take a look back at advertising and how it has changed our ways of selling products. Bill Bryson is a “versatile American author of several books on travel, science and literature”, who served as a chancellor of Durham University in England and has received honorary awards Bryson is more than capable of informing readers about The Hard Sell (120). Bryson will introduce the importance of advertisement from an excerpt from his own book Made in America: An Informal History of the English Language in the United States.
Analysis of an Advertising Campaign We are swarmed by advertising. Companies constantly battle to compete for the sale of their product. Adverts appear in every form of media including radio; television; Internet; billboards; newspaper; flyers and magazines. The advertiser wants us to buy their product above their competitors. The basic aim of advertising is to convince the target audience that their product is the best in the field and superior to the other products of similarity.
During the 19th and 20th century, America –mostly white collar, middle class Americans- saw a great increase in salaries and a huge rise in mass production which paved the way for the modern American consumerism which we know today. The advertising scene saw a dramatic boost during that period and tried to latch on to this growing pool of emerging consumers. Although only limited to print, advertising during this pivotal period showed panache and reflected American society

Advertising in America was created when businesses wanted to attract customers by providing information about their product or service (Black, Hashimzade, and Myles). Advertising has been used for many centuries, and was even used during the American Revolutionary War, 1775-1783. Businesses used different advertising techniques such as posters and signs to provide consumers with information about their products, and to persuade them to buy American. Before the war, Americans received their goods on ships from England. The American colonies won the war and became the United States of America. Now it was important for Americans to build a strong American economy (Milton 9). Even today American’s are partial to anything that says, “Made in America.” The economy thrives because of consumerism, so if advertising brings in more businesses than Americans benefit as well.
Nowadays, advertising is a very big business. Very often is the major means of competing among firms. Furthermore, supporters of advertising claim that it brings specific benefits for consumers.
