Modern Advertising

There are many important parts to advertising, from branding all the way to marketing and advertising. What is amazing is how advanced advertising is becoming. Advertising started from words with one promoting something to another. Then it went to print on newspapers, posters and magazines and now there are billboards, radio and TV advertisements. The newest advertisements move and are interactive. Mall kiosks are an example of interactive ads. They also use social media networks to keep people updated and connected. Other examples of interactive advertisements are Chanel and Adobe. They have screens that become animated as you walk by; Chanel’s is on the outside of one of their stores. This grabs people’s attention and makes them feel interacted with the brand. On one of Coca-Cola’s vending machines is an interactive screen that shows commercials that are seen on TV and shows the different flavors of soda you can buy. Many companies are using interactive advertisements because they are new to the advertisement world and because it gets people involved. Instead of just hearing and seeing ads, you can now touch the ads and make them do what you want. People can remember interactive ads more than something they read. I think these new ways to advertise are great and exciting.
