How should advertising be structured?

  1. To confuse potential customers

  2. To avoid misrepresentation

  3. To highlight only the lowest prices

  4. To include false endorsements

The correct answer is: To avoid misrepresentation

Advertising should be structured to avoid misrepresentation in order to maintain ethical standards and legal compliance. This approach protects both the business and the consumer by ensuring that claims made in advertisements are truthful and not deceptive. Misrepresentation can lead to consumer distrust, legal repercussions, and damage to a company's reputation. Effective advertising is not about misleading customers with exaggerated claims or false endorsements, nor should it solely focus on the lowest prices at the expense of quality or service. By prioritizing honesty and clarity in advertising, businesses attract customers through a foundation of trust and integrity, ultimately fostering long-term relationships and repeat business. This practice not only builds brand loyalty but also aligns with legal regulations governing advertising and consumer protection.
