Hence, the marketers use advertisements as a tool to influence children's buying behavior.

 
 
 

In the highly competitive and globalized market, business organizations are leaving no stone unturned to come out with flying colors, by creating greater awareness and long-run acceptability of their products brands. Creation of awareness mainly depends on persuasive communication with the buyers and potential customers, and here comes the role of advertisement, which is an art of persuading others to purchase what marketer has.

Advertisement is one of the major tools that all business firms use for persuasive communication. The effectiveness of advertising depends on the extent to which the advertising message is received and accepted by the target audiences.
