In our day to day life we are bombarded with advertisements.  Whether you are watching your favorite TV program or simply updating your Facebook status you are bound to come across an advert demanding your attention. Adverts tell us what phone to use, what brand to wear, what pen to write with...the list goes on. This is because in business advertising play an important an important role, because they do not only sell products or services but also help in increasing sales.


Adverts can be very creative  but there are adverts, however, that leave us stretching our heads in wonder or even worse anger. Brands have to be very careful when advertising because with the growing use of social media it is very easy for individuals who hate the brand to fake adverts using the brands name, these adverts can be very cruel and simply unacceptable.
