Background Of The Study

Advertisement is the collective term for public announcement designed to promote the scales of specific commodities or services that are meant to educate, inform and persuade the entire public by means of difference methods such as Radio, Television, Newspaper, Journal and Magazines etc.

Sometime, we often get infuriated when listening or watching a programme and all of a sudden an advertisement is intro0duce into it, (programme) telling us about business in which individual advertise their products in an attempt to make for awareness and persuade consumers to buy them. Various mineral drinks advertisement is mostly carried out in advertising media.  Notably, among which are radio, television, magazines, bill-boards, newspapers etc. the advertisement tries to persuade and convince their target audience of the differential benefit derivable from consumption of the brand of seven-up.
