The market is expanding and the sophistication is receding.The well structured ads with simple language  go well with the masses.The big players are now realizing the importance and are reaching out to the far flung rural areas which was otherwisw unthinkable before three years.This trend has become all the more conspicuous by its presence after thr global recession.

A well structured and simply worded message is likely to apply to a greater cross section of the market generically and consequently interest a greater cross section of the market.

Since markets are expanding and so many products are in the shopping list of rural comsumers also such as mobile phones, watches, washing powder, toothpaste, shampoos it is equally important to reach out to this segment as they constitute 70% of the population/consumers.

As such a well structured, simple understandable language should be followed.

i think its totally depend upon the target market and audience..if the the product or the message is for mass market then a well structured and simple language will do the magic..as in our market people use to enjoy the simplicity...so a well structured ads and simple language will be enough to capture the mass..because today people dont want to spend much time to think something...so...

COMMUNICATION IN OTHER WORDS IS MEETING OF MINDS.THE PURPOSE TO MAKE THE OTHER PERSON UNDERSTAND WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BE COMMUNICATED.THE MESSAGE SHOULD BE  CLEAR,UNAMBIGUOUS AND SHOULD REACH THE TARGET CUSTOMER.IT CAN VARY DEPENDING UPON THE TARGET SEGMENT.

Being a one month old PGDM student and a fan of few interesting commercials, I believe a well structured and a simple language commercial will reach more or all audience and it will remain in their minds for a longer time. The reason is that a viewer will watch the commercial with a relaxed mind and not as if one is watching a quiz show wherein one will squeeze one's mind to come with an answer. So , keep it simple to make it reachable. Thank you.

Definately. As we all know "Have something to say. say it clearly and melodiously. Clearly at all cost and melodiously if possble". It is always the simplicity in the message which catches the attention fast.

To attract attention and to make your Brand more visible than other has become the prime objective of the advertisers Agreed, that to grab attention one have to use polished gimics, but at the same time the ad should be simple to understand, unless the masses will only keep thinking what the ad was about they wont remember or the brand/Product displayed in it

" as per todays market wether we relate to consumers or the sellers ,advertising in easy language is fruitful ,it makes an individual understands his necessity whether this product is usefull to him or not,and even if we look on the sellers point of view he may even save his time by making it simple for the buyer to understand.....

Simple language will make the product reach the masses but one thing should be taken care of is what is the product if the product is for the niche market then the language should be polished & sophisticated.

Thanks Manoj for refferal. For a product to survive in our country the language should be understandable by all prospective customers which is one billion plus and leave a trce in the mind of the customer and the same should be advertised again and again.

One example may be Vivel by ITC. Now they have changed after repeat purchase are on and new customers are coming in.

The company like HULL is trying to make the size of cake bigger on cosmetic indutry as a whole to sustain the growth and profit.

I don't think there should be two opinion on this subject. Of course the lay out matters, but the message should be as simple as it could be so that it reaches to the maximum people. Sorry, I beg to differ with Mr Naushad. You are talking about Benz. Was the famous line of Rolls, "Inside the car the only sound you will hear is the ticking of the clock" not simple enough?

In a country of 100 billion people,the strategy should be to capture the market. This is only possible when consumers understand the language of the advertisement and connect with it. The market strategy should be so planned that consumers should not be drawn in dove,but they pick up the item for its utility, quality, and help in mouth publicity after its use.

I think, well structured & simle message is not enough sometimes to catch the attention.it should be designed sophistically to get noticed between the chaos of other messages.

Sometimes simple language is not enough to create curiosity among the targeted audience. you have to make them wonder by making it a bit complex to at least make  them think about it. but it has its disadvantages you don't want to make it so complex that they loose the hang of it. "That's a risk you have to take" as everything has pros and cons.

IT TOTALLY DEPENDS... ON THE PRODUCTS & ITS' TARGETTED BUYERS  !!

How can you mix the TWO ISSUES... Its very Clear that an Advt. for a MERCEDES BENZ, will not talk in common lingo or address Masses.

Its always the Product, its' Market Placement, its' Price Bracket & its' Target Users... which define HOW its' Advertising Campaign will be.

Happy Debating Friends !
