INTRODUCTION:



Prior to the era of industrial revolution, the pattern and method of salesmanship was both crude and cumbersome chiefly because the gap between the productive and consumption sectors of society was small and manageable. However, with the present complication and sophistication among both the producers and consumers occasion by high level economic and technological developments, businesses are now reshaping, refocusing repositioning and redirecting their operations and marketing strategies in order to face the obvious challenges posed by modern day marketing.



Every business concern has a major objective for which it was established but whatever may be the goal, the overriding force undoubtedly remains profit maximization.



To accomplish the afforested, these businesses make conscious efforts of finding out what their customers want, providing them, creating the needed awareness on the availability of these goods and services and offering them at the right place, time and cost. It is by so doing that such a business can assuredly claim greater percentage of the market share and at the center of the these activities is the pivot, the stimulant , the propeller, the sole of business called advertising.



Advertising as one of the strongest promotional tool remains a strong force in the hands of business entities. A popular saying has it that if you do not blow your trumpet, nobody is going to do that for only when you say, “here I am “, that people will actually know where you are. Advertising does this and more for organization especially the hotel business. It creates especially awareness, packages, the product, services etc and presents it to the intended consumer and assists him in making the right choices.



The following definitions and opinions by some authorities and schools of thought on the meaning and roles of advertising will perhaps give more insight into the concept.



According to Stanton W.H



Advertising consists of all the activities in presenting to a group of non-personal oral, or visual openly sponsored message regularly regarding a product, services or idea.
