CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Study
It is a well-known fact that the basic purpose of any advertising firm or company involved in it is to increase sales, and the essence of being in business by any business outfits is to produce for sales and profits. It is important for organizations to engage in programmes that can influence consumer’s decision to purchase its products. The advertiser’s primary mission is to approach target customers and influence their awareness, attitudes and buying behaviour.

The advertiser’s goal now is to get enough relevant market data to develop accurate profiles of buyers to find the common group (symbols) for communications. The process of consumer behavior involves: mental and emotional process and the physical activities of people who purchase and use goods and services to satisfy particular need and wants.  
1.2 Statement of Research Problem
Various advertisement are present in the media; television, newspaper, radio and magazines, but one very important question to be asked is if these advertisement have any influence on consumer’s intent to purchase a required brand. If advertisement is not persuading consumers to purchase the required brand (product) then all the resources (money, time and effort) spent on it must have been in vain. Every organization is out to make profit, and to maximize it. This has to do with judicious utilization of available scarce resources. Thus, most organization would want to know ahead of time, the benefit of any intended expenditure before embarking on it. Before spending money on advertisement, the organization wants to know its influence on consumer brand preferences.
