These days as I switch on the tv or radio or look at a hoarding I do feel that power of ads I see. There are few innovative ads but rest all are stale. I do not understand many of these ads, their purpose looks so unclear that I feel that standards have gone down. While we are racing to meet international standards everywhere, are we lagging behind in this department? What is your take?

Thats true...Ads which makes sense are very few.Thats paving way for online advertising where the attention is grabbed irrespective of the the ads.

Dear Folks!!!

Yes, 2 a Gr8 extent , I agree that Indian Ads industry is losing is effervescence .

I am of the viewpoint that ads R part N parcel of marketing and they R very helpful in boosting D sale of a product/ Service . V can easily C around us that whether its posters,banners,Mags pamphlets, silver screens, Broad sheets, telly tubes ,billboards,Radio ,Information superhighway etcetera etcetera all these medium R regularly used by the companies to market their products/services.

Cos regularly pump humongous amount of money in making ads.

Only handful of D ads appeal 2 D ppl N most of them R just like In N out  Branded products which lose their sheen N crescendo N vanish in2 thin air after a short span of time.

In nutshell,D ads. Which create a long lasting impressions in D mind of people R D ones in which out of the box logic is used or D ones which carry a catchy punchline/ words (which D ppl. starts using in their day to day life N talk about D same) or D ones which have gud sense of humor or D ones which R endorsed by D celebrities who R in lime light these days ,being wanted N admired by D public N having a gud mass appeal.

Thnx & Rgrdz

There are too many ads shown on TV, every now and then also with repeatitions. It seems there is no regulation for the quantity too.

By and large, companies target the reach of the mass. In the bargain, they loose certain advanced tools/ technologies. Cultural background , also, restrict their circulations. Colourful, theme driving, culture-oriented, understandable, easy reach media's with clear & simple terms makes advt modern. " Advertisement looks through Eye's not through Mind" is the phrase this Industry follows.

Too  much of celebrity endorses are playing a spoilsport.Many a times i noticed that the advertisement deviate from the real path of presenting a product's importance.They just seems to concentrate on the popularity of celebrity status.For example, these days one advertisement of a salman khan endorsing  a banyan, is just a headache, it has nothing to do with the durability or need of a banyan.Nowadays, people are very clever, they do research themselves before buying a product.Ad companies must try to present the real fact behind presenting the product and should not just depend on the celebrity status.

Darshana, you hit the nail on the head but we are not just lagging behind but are already way behind. Yes, a few streaks of silver lining that can be seen in this are the individual flashes of brilliance in terms of innovative ad campaigns like the "Mentos - dimag ki batti... ", Amul, fevikwik campaigns etc. But where the indian advertising industry lags behind is just not in creatives but in strategy. We usually cant look beyond the tv and print campaigns when a whole range of experential campaigns and online avatars are being created for a brand worldwide. Our online presence is miniscule. I would blame both agencies and clients equally for this sorry state of affairs. Clients becuase they do not respect the advertising agency folks with whom they trust their brands - they usually treat agencies and the staff as their personal doormats imposing their idea only because a particular marketing head at the clients side is an MBA from a premier B school or for the simple fact that they are picking up the tab at the end of the day. Im the west the agency-client relationship is still respected and sacrosanct. Agencies becuase they lack unity and self discipline unlike the agencies in the west. We are happy to poach each others clients and talents and even go to the length of having second or third agency names on letter heads to service conflicting accounts sometimes with the same set of people operating from a different address. Add to this the absence of self-regulation, proper rules for advertising (anyone with money can start an ad agnecy - even it could be an autorikshaw driver)and lack of govt support or a strong trade body like what NASSCOM does for Software industry - you have the perfect recipe for disaster !

Darshana is completely correct at her point. Just a spell check here"........we need innovative methods to highlight ourselves and show that we too are food at advertising."   I believe Darshana must have thought of typing it as "good" but what came up was "food" . Anyway, good food is always good. Since the word used was food, I have it here. Unless you have an innovative " Cornflakes " Ad at the TV, breakfast with kids at the dining table would be  the Kurushetra, where time is running fast and the errant school kid swears by milk and cornflakes as his greatest enemy. "  A disneyland character here does the magic and turns the kid into Romeo( The greatest lover) and cornflakes into Juliet( loved as if no tomorrow). This is all about advertising, how we influence minds. Gone are the days" when singing the song" Vicco Cosmetic, ye hai ayurvedic, Vicco Cosmetic Ayurvedic cream, Keel muhaso ko jad se mitaye, haldi chandan ke gun isme samaye,twacha ki raksha kare ayurvedic cream, Vicco cosmetic Ayurvedic cream" and then a ear piercing sound (teeeeeeeeeeeeen) used to make the housewife remind her husband to get it for her from market after office, else he would have to stay out of the house that night, unless he gets it. All things change and so changes human mind.

I'm in absolute support of your argument, Darshana. Over a time I have experienced that the Indian ad industry takes pride in copying (err.. getting inspiration from) their western counterpart. There are very few genuinely creative efforts made. And I'm not blindly supporting your idea here. This is the observation and experience of many years of my professional life.

I believe that we need innovative methods to highlight ourselves and show that we too are food at advertising. Many old ads which make us feel nostalgic are also really good example of advertising. If we want to meet the international standards we need to think beyond just brand ambassadors..

According to my view 65% of the adds are very creative with some unique features,expected target group defintley getting the correct message in a simple manner and on the other hand getting induced to purchase the brand.but 35% of the advertishment not communicating the coerrect message to the target vieweres,it's all depending on Brand Manageres creativityand capacity of the individual.

Social media emergence have increased our expectations many fold. It is not that our adds are not good but we fail to keep up with the pace at times..... for example, the airtel add ' kyunki har ek friend jaruri hota hai' was poluarised and expaned much on social media in short span of time and soon people started looking forward to airtel's rivals and airtel too for another advertisement

Our ads are good but we have to keep moving as the technology develops. Today the users of Internet are very high compared to other countries, so companies should make best use of this opportunity. Social Media Marketing is the best way to brand ones company these days. It costs not even 1/10th cost of a TV or Radio Ad. Also companies can advertise in various ways without sticking to a single theme at a time. I would strongly suggect that it is high time to move on to Social Media Marketing to a large Extend.
