INTRODUCTION
Advertising is the means of informing as well as influencing the general public to buy a
product or services through visual or oral messages. A product or service is advertised to create
awareness in the minds of potential buyers through various advertising mediums such as
Newspapers, Magazines, Television, Radio, Posters, Hoardings, Billboard and in recent time
internet and web advertising. It is a promotional activity for marketing a commodity. In the
present days world of mass production and distribution, advertising serves as a powerful tool in
the marketing process. Advertising is used for communicating business information to the
present and prospective customers. It usually provides information about the advertising firm, its
society which encourages people to purchase goods and services. Advertising contributes to
bring about all round development of the economy by increasing demand and by encouraging
economic activities which in turn improves the income. It motivates people to consume more
material thereby improving their standard of living. Advertising has acquired great importance in
the modern world where tough competition in the market and fast changes in technology, altered
our lifestyle.
The term 'advertising' is derived from the Latin word 'advertere' which means 'to turn' the
attention. Every piece of advertising attempt to turn the attention of the readers or the listeners or

the viewers towards a product. The most widely accepted definition of advertising is the one
which is given by the American Marketing Association, according to which advertising is "any
paid form of non-personal presentation and promotion of goods, services and ideas by an
Each year corporations spend large amounts of money to tailor and personalize their
marketing messages and to discover new tactics to encourage consumers’ repeated consumption
(Workman & Paper, 2010). One way to increase the number of shopping trips to the store is
advertising. As a result of enormous expenditures and the attention companies pay to advertise
their products and services effectively, consumers are exposed to more persuasive advertising
pressure than ever before (Neuner, Raab & Reisch, 2005). Although these advances stand to
benefit manufacturers and retailers, the influence of advertising can have a devastating effect on
Of all the marketing weapons, advertising has leading impacts on the viewers mind, as its
exposure is much more effective (Katke, 2007). Marketing mix has four elements which are
product, price, place, and promotion. Advertising is a component of promotional mix, which is
used to create awareness about products and services for influencing purchase decisions.
Marketers use three types of tools for communication purpose. Advertisement evolved in the
ancient times. Different societies used different types of symbols for the promotion of the
products and services for attracting consumers. However, these pictures were used for promotion
in a limited area. In modern times, advertisement has become an important way to promote
products and services and is for communication purpose. There are companies which can
become a market leaders unless it invests significantly in promotion (Hussainy and Herani,
2008). The aim of advertising is to impact on buying behaviors. However, this impact about

brands is changed or strengthened frequently by peoples’ memories. Memories about the brand
consist of those associations that are related to brand name in the consumers mind. These brand
conditions influence consideration, evaluation, and finally purchases (Romanuik and Sharp,
2004). Most companies conduct analysis of consumers’ behavior, the major objective of
consumer behavior analysis is to determine the factors that enhance consumers’ behavior in
particular circumstances like in economic aspects (Ayanwale and Ayanbmpe, 2005). Consumer
behavior analysis is helpful for an advertiser to understand the behavior of consumer in buying in
advertising exposure leads to brand cognition and cognition about the ad, which then leads to the
attitude towards the ad and the brands until their purchase intent (Mendelson and Bolls, 2002).
Based on the above information, the present study will be undertaken by researchers to
test if there is a relation between exposure to TV advertisements and skin care products

CHAPTER 2
Advertising is a measure of the growth of civilization and a sign of the human race’s
strife for betterment and perfection. Advertising is looked upon as a major part of an overall
factor in spreading awareness about skin care products in the market. Not only does advertising
increase awareness, but may also increase the aspirations and consumption desires and some
evidence also exists in the form of long run persistence of brand preference as an impact of
advertising (Bronnenberg et al., 2011). In another study, advertisements are not just a way of
sending information about skin care product but are meant to relate to sensitivities of consumers
Advertising communicates vital information regarding the firm, its product qualities and
the place of availability of its products to the prospective as well as existing buyers thereby

television can be regarded as the most influential advertising media because of its viewership
strength as well as its capability in achieving strong retention power among the viewers.
Television enables the advertiser’s power among the viewer. Television enables the advertiser to
communicate by combining motion, sounds, words, color, personality and stage setting to
express and demonstrate ideas to large and widely distributed audience (Aswathy S, 2014).
Television ads are valuable for generating awareness, knowledge and interest in new skin
care products. A direct consequence is that effective television ads may lead viewers to seek out
more information about these skin care products and brands. Recently, consumers have started
gathering a great deal of skin care product information online, and to date, the most studied
online behavior among TV viewers has been searching for advertised brands and skin care
products using search engines (Joo et al., 2014). Such online search is obviously important to the
brands that sell primarily online, but it also matters to offline retailers, as it allows interested
consumers to learn more about an advertised skin care product prior to incurring a costly store
visit. Nearly all major retailers provide extensive assortment, product and price information
online, often in formats that can help consumers locate physical products in local (offline) retail
We posit that people have two main decisions in response to TV ad exposure. First, they
choose whether to visit the brand’s website or not. If the website domain is very salient,
visitation would most likely occur by a direct route, such as entering the website address into the
browser or by clicking a bookmark. If the website domain is unknown or not salient, the
consumer might instead visit a search engine and then click a referring link to the brand’s

informing or reminding them of its products and services. Advertising is also used to convince
consumers or help them differentiate a product or a company from their competitors in certain
market. Kotler and Keller (2014) mention that advertising can be applied in building up a long-
term image of a brand or generating quick sales. They also note that the mere presence of
advertising may increase sales because consumers might believe that a brand that is advertised a
lot must offer good value. Fill (2013) agrees with Kotler and Keller in that products that are
heavily advertised are perceived as being of higher quality and consumers are more likely to buy
One way to increase the number of shopping trips to the store is advertising. As a result
of enormous expenditures and the attention companies pay to advertise their skin care products
and services effectively, consumers are exposed to more persuasive advertising pressure than
ever before (Workman & Paper, 2010). Although these advances stand to benefit manufacturers
and retailers, the influence of advertising can have a devastating effect on a specific vulnerable

from commercial sources which are dominated by the firms who make the products. So, it will
