8. The main area of interest for advertisers is to
increase their sales, gain more and more
customers, and increase the demand for the
product by presenting a well decorated, puffed
and colorful ad.
9. Ethics depends on what we believe
If the advertisers make the ads on the belief that the customers will
understand, persuade them to think, and then act on their ads, then
this will lead to positive results and the ad may not be called unethical.
But at the same time, if advertisers believe that they can fool their
customers by showing any impractical things like just clicking fingers
will make your home or office fully furnished or just buying a lottery
ticket will make you a millionaire, then this is not going to work out for
them and will be called as unethical.

11. Children
children are the major sellers of the ads and the product. They have the
power to convince the buyers. But when advertisers are using children
in their ad, they should remember not to show them alone doing there
work on their own like brushing teeth, playing with toys, or infants
holding their own milk bottles as everyone knows that no one will leave
their kids unattended while doing all these activities. So showing
parents also involved in all activities or things being advertised will be
more logical.
