If the advertisement looks good then people would buy the product based on how well it is advertised. If an advertisement is made well then other people may be convinced by others that they want to get that person to promote their product or service.

The question is if a product is misleading it may be banned by the ASA therefore people would want to know why and this gains a lot of publicity which will make the product or service become more recognisable.
