Describe how free advertising works.
Deffense [45]

Answer: While researching the topic of advertising, I happened upon an infographic on How Advertising Makes Us Buy. The infographic below opens with the notion that companies are rich and have piles of money and they use it to manipulate their poor audience. I think that’s a rather disturbing, unfortunate, and unlikely notion.

The first notion that only rich companies advertise is a bizarre idea. Our company is not wealthy and, in fact, had a couple years of losses – yet we still advertised. Advertising, especially via digital channels, is very affordable. You can deposit $100 into any social or search engine pay per click account and push some highly targeted advertisements to drive awareness to your business.

Attitudes on business don’t align well with the actual statistics in a social media world. About a quarter of all businesses fail within the first two years according to multiple studies. While people believe the average company makes a 36% profit margin, the average profit margin for the most recent quarter was 7.5% and the median profit margin was 6.5%.

Angie’s List, for example, continued to operate at a loss while spending $80 million on marketing – with a large portion of that going to the television commercials you repeatedly see on television. While a public company that’s increasing revenue quarter over quarter, they’re hardly rich. Not only are they not rich, but they’re also not advertising to make their customers feel rich. Angie’s List provides a service to protect home services customers from getting ripped off from the plethora of shady providers out there.

Advertising works on different levels; it’s not as simple as trying to get someone to buy something. Over the last decade of content, search, and social marketing, I believe companies are becoming more keen to the fact that advertising needs to be much deeper than manipulating a consumers’ insecurities. Targeted advertising on consumers who are similar to your audience increases profitability by acquiring and keeping great customers.

This is probably true, as music was present in all cultures, and it is argued that music might have been part of the culture of the human population before it split and populated all the continents.

Do you economies of India and China are expanding in similar ways what sectors of the both economies are the largest
vazorg [7]
Both India and China were mostly communist states, with centralized government and strict control of a business.

China:
China opened up its economy by the 1970s and saw unprecedented growth, which many economists say, might never again be repeated by another country.

China worked on an export-based model and mass production of products using cheap labor. Today over 40% of the country's GDP comes from Manufacturing while the sectors of Industry and Construction account for 48% of the GDP.



India:
India is just starting to grow but it has an economy which is only 1/5th the size of China's. India has a more service-based economy which brings in billions of dollars but is not able to create the same amount of jobs that the manufacturing sector can.

57% of India's GDP is based on the services sector and BPO and software development is their biggest industry.
