 TIPS FOR
ADVERTISING
1.Try not to guarantee that your item or service can do what you realize it can’t
do. It is morally not correct to publicize something that doesn’t exist, and you
should never do this as it is ethically wrong.

2.Try not to mislead the people with your ads, as many individuals may get
astonished by the specific advert since they do not comprehend the message
that your ad is passing; instead, they enjoy the image or the visuals you use.
Accordingly, it is unethical if you use wrong, harmful, or misleading visuals or
languages in your advertisement.

3.Try not to advertise specific items or services to those places where those
items or services are considered illegal, illegitimate, or unacceptable.

4.Attempt to provide the optimum possible disclosure of what you are offering
to your audiences, as it is significant in maintaining the advertising ethics in
your campaign.

5.Try not to put bogus, false, or misleading ads, as it is deceptive conduct and
not considered right as per the advertising ethics.
 6.Try not to cheat, misguide, or double-cross the audiences with your promotions.
Do not run those ads that are deceiving because they go amiss from the actual facts
about your product or service.

7.Moral norms in your campaigns should think about the community standard. It
