Hindrance of knowledge
Reason — Advertising removes the hindrance of knowledge. Producers and merchants often find it difficult to sell goods because consumers are not aware of their existence, benefits and uses. Advertising and sales promotion remove this hindrance by bringing goods and services to the knowledge of consumers and persuading them to buy. The hindrance of place is removed by transport, finance by banking, and risk by insurance.
