    All advertising is harmful, a complete ad ban would be wonderful, very hard to enforce thought.

      The only good advertising is honest word of mouth from buyer to buyer. No marketing team involved

        I disagree with this. If a new shop comes out, how are they supposed to get word-of-mouth over the bigger, more shopped at shop, even if it is better? People will stick with what they know, and the new shop will die. Maybe this is a naïve perspective, but that’s how I am thinking here.
