When a business is new, obviously no one knows you, you have to promote your product and let people know what you are selling or offer in the business. Doing that can be a way you influence and reaching customers to you product and that can contribute to the success of such business. Because many still don't know you and your business that is why the role of advertising play a vital role to promote our service to reach people that don't know about us.
Advertising your products of services is a strategic that I see it have shaped, drive sales of many services and products in the world. Sometimes we might not know about any product or service, or not hear about it, but with advertising that product can reach to our hear, and made us to recognize there is something available for consumers. Advertising is the real strategic that help sell products or services more than referral, and people have been using this to get success for their business with different techniques.

Why is it Importance to Advertise a Business?
We have different stage for business, earlier stage which is the time the business is still fresh and trying to get people's awareness, another stage when the business is in inclined stage, then people are getting know the business and while the last stage when the business is going down, decline stage. All of these stages all need advertising. Advertising plays a crucial role in the success of any business. It is a powerful tool that when business or services is still at early stage, advertise help in influence consumer behavior, create brand awareness, that will drive sake to the products offering. However, one of the primary reason why this strategy is important in business is that makes product or services travel beyond area of establishment and thst can extend brabd recognition across domain. Undoubtedly if advertising done in right way and effectively it will convey the name of the brands and the value of that product wider to audience and even expand its base. Advertise help business to target customers who are not aware the existing of that product. For instance a product might be sell in Germany, but I can only be aware of such products if i see the advert on TV screen or any advertising channels, the advert had help the product or service get exposure to other countries because it has been advertised and that can open more sale opportunity for such business.
Effective Advertising Techniques and Strategies
In the world now that there are lot of competition between business, I can't say this is the effective advertising techniques that will work for business that will make them stand out from the crowds and capture the attention of their customers. The technique that work for A might not be the one that will work for B, so businesses need to employ different strategies that can help them to reach their customers, and drive the sales and be standout in the competitive landscape.
One of the effective techniques i think work general is the strategy of social proof. Nowadays people are more likely to trust a product or service advertise with endorsement, no doubt we human like what someone has reviews, or gives testomonies about, this really make us to think in such products is good, so social proof is one of the biggest advertising techniques that business can use to expand their business. Another one that is most common is using influential figure for advertising, people trust in such business and it prompt consumers to jump into the product without even need a review of it, because they might be fear of missing out on that great opportunity. We all know the product is new, but the influence of the advertiser that promote it in public make it gain customers trust and that is the idea people today using to promote their business. They use influential figure to backup their products. I know it might be challenging to know which strategies are working and the one you need in your business, but alll the technique are good, you just need to find a way to reach and promote your business to where people are not aware of its existence. It might be through storyteller, online, social media platform, media or billboard.
