BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Advertising consist of all the activities in presenting to a group. A non personnel, oral or visual, openly sponsored message regarding the products, services or ideas this messages are spread through one or more media and is paid for by an identified sponsor (Brana, 2010). First there is a significant difference between advertising and advertisement (Friaka, 2005).
Advertisement is the message itself while advertising is a powerful communication force and it is an essential marketing tool helping to sell goofs, services, images and idea through the channel of information and persuasion.According to Kolter (1998) “advertising is any paid form of –non personnel presentation and promotion of idea, goods and services, by an identified sponsor” advertising is aim at selling goods, services, create demands, families the public with the use of the product, prepare the way for the salesmen, create goodwill, introduce new style and customs (Cain, 2019).
Advertising is part of the marketing mix, but it can be use by an individual such as an entertainer, or by non commercial organisation not engaged in marketing, such as hospital advertising for staff.Advertising is one of the four major tools companies use to direct persuasive communication to target buyers and public. It consist of non-personnel forms of communication conducted through paid media under clear sponsorship. Although advertising is primarily a private enterprise marketing tools it is used in the countries of the world including socialists countries, it works not only on behalf of specific goods and services, but also assumes certain characteristic which are less directly connected to selling.
However, the potency of advertising as an economic catalysts in its persuasive and informative attributes Armstrong.(2002).state “that advertising can ever create market where no market exist, such is advertising. Its influence encourages consumers to any thing they do not need or into buying something not in their own interest.
According to Perreavult (1999) “Sales promotion refers to those promotion activities other than advertising, publicity and personal selling that stimulate interest, trial or purchase by final customers or other sin the channel, this can involve use of sample, sign, catalogs novelties and circulars.
According to Kotler (2002) “Sales promotion, a key ingredient in marketing campaigns, consist of a collection of incentive tools, mostly short term, designed to stimulate quicker or greater purchase of particular product or services by consumers or the trade.
Whereas advertising offers a reason to buy, sales promotion offers an incentive to buy, sales promotion includes tools for consumer promotion (samples, cash refund offer, prices off, premiums, prizes, patronage, free trials warranties, in promotion, cross promotion, point-of purchase displays, and demonstrations trade promotion (prices off, advertising and display allowances, and free goods, and business and sales-force promotion (trade shows and convention. Contests for sales representatives and specifically advertising).
Sales promotion tools is difference in their specific objectives. A free sample stimulates consumer trial, whereas a free management advisory services aim at cementing a long-term relationship with a retailer.
