The Confusion Behind Computer Advertisements :: Media

The Confusion Behind computing machine Advertisements Advertising is the key ingredient to a companys success, so its pretty common for a company to go to perfect levels to sell their products. There are six basic consumer behavior decisions when it comes to creating a desire for a brand name or product.1. Problem acquaintance The consumer decides that he or she wishs something.2. Search The consumer gathers information about ways to satisfy this need.3. Evaluation of Alternatives He or she weighs the plusses and minuses of the alternatives.4. Decision The consumer decides what to buy.5. Purchase He or she buys it.6. Post purchase Evaluation The consumer decides whether he or she bought the serious thing. In realty, human beings are resourceful enough to find what they need without ads (Kaufman, 2004). However, ads do as much damage as it does good. Pushing more than and more ads down consumers throat is not going to necessarily s ee them want to buy that product Internet pop-up ads are a bill example. The abundance of ads is not the only problem. Many ads can be mislead in what they are really trying to sell you Dell is a good example of misleading ads. Travis a dell computer client writes in an Internet complaint, we ordered a dimension 8200 series save we were late in receiving the camera kit. When we did receive the camera kit it wasnt the right one for that computer, but Dell still wouldnt rent it back because it was already past the 30-day warranty (Travis of Kalispell, MT, 2004). Best Buy is also guilty of using misleading advertisement, which leads to even more serious accusations. Katherine of Hartsdale (2004), NY writes, for Christmas my mammy bought me a Playstation 2 and several games. One of the games wouldnt work so I tried taking it back to Best Buy.
