Effective and continuous advertising is one of the most
important functions of any successful business. It is
imperative that the products or services of any business
receive the proper exposure, and the way to achieve
exposure is through advertising. Whether it is on the national
or local level, advertising campaigns are necessary to let
people know about a business and its products. The goal of
marketing is to target the segment of a population who have
a special need for a particular product or service and finding
ways to provide that product or service in the most effective
means available. The function of advertising and marketing
companies is to professionally promote individual businesses
and organizations. Advertising agencies and marketing firms
are dedicated to the development of the most innovative and
effective means of business promotion available.
