This paper highlights the dual nature of advertising: while its purpose is to increase sales and profit, some practices within it can be unethical. Ethical advertising practices build trust, enhance reputation, and foster long-term customer relationships, leading to loyalty and sustained success. Despite the pervasive influence of advertising on consumer behaviour, it's crucial to critically evaluate messages to make informed choices. Manipulative tactics in advertising can be subtle, requiring consumers to develop discernment to protect against impulsive decisions. Additionally, in a society promoting excessive consumption, being mindful of its impact on individuals and the environment is vital. Cultivating responsible consumption habits can lead to a more balanced life and mitigate negative societal and environmental effects.
