The Influence of Advertising in the Marketing of Nigeria Made Product (A Case Study of Nestle Nigeria Plc)

CHAPTER ONE

1.0 Introduction

To many people advertising is a familiar term which most often people tend to think of it only as a selling technique. But by itself advertising is a vital marketing tool that helps to sell goods, services, images and ideas through information and persuasion. However, taking a variety of terms for the purpose of this project, the best definition for advertising would probably be any paid form of non0personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods and services by an identified sponsor. Much has been written of this subject, unfortunately, a considerable amount of what has been said is far more emotional than rational.

In this project, the researcher tries to be as realistic and objective as possible in knowing if advertising is a good thing as its campaigns would want us to believe? Is it a hard thing as the opponents say? Is it neither good nor bad except as each advertising uses it? In order to arrive at sensible answer to these questions it is necessary to understand the importance of advertising somebody hits on a new product ideas or a method of improving as existing product, money is raised to manufacture and market the invention.

Here, the manufacturer becomes the advertiser using conventional media to promote the manufacturer would want to sell more of it to people in different places.

Consequently, distribution is expanded and advertising is increased accordingly. At a point, advertising for the product becomes highly competitive that each manufacturer then seeks to develop his products to give the public more and better reason for buying them rather than that of his competition.
