Statement of The Problem

Longman (2000) says “advertising is an act of telling people publicly about a product or

service in order to persuade them to buy it.

Alonge (2001) feels that advertising can be defined as any paid form of non- personal
communication which is directed to the consumers or target audiences through various media
in order to prevent and promote product, services and idea.

Gillian (1982) views it as “means of drawing someone’s attention to something or notifying


or informing somebody of something”.

Tuflinger (1996) says “advertising is the non-personal communication of information usually


paid for and usually persuasive in nature, about product, services or ideas by an identified
sponsor through the various media. So much for academic double talk. Let’s take this
statement apart and see what it means.

Young (2005) stated that in an effort to improve managing and gain audience attention,
advertisers create branding moment that will resonate with target markets, and motivate
audiences to purchase the advertised product or service, advertisers copy test their
advertisement before releasing them to the public

Newhaven and Rafaeli (1996) define interactivity as “a communication that reflects back on
itself, feeds on, and responds to the past”. Therefore, in the authors‟ research, interactivity is
defined as the communication between consumers and advertisers, for example, advertiser
affect consumer’s habit and behaviours, while consumer also affect advertiser’s management.

Richards and Curran (2002) “Advertising is a paid, mediated form of communication from
an identifiable source, designed to persuade the receiver to take some action now or in the
future.”
