"Could it be because others are doing the work for us?" I have a clear answer to the question, read on... So why are we spending so much on advertising? After all we are in the 21st century and we need all the advertising that we can get to compete with our relentless competitors.

Don't try to compete with the large companies with the fancy graphics and expensive advertising. Let them spend all they want in expensive advertising, many of them don't realize that it's extremely risky or if they do know that it's risky, they simply don't care. Take Television Advertising and Banner Advertising for instance... Many companies have spend millions of dollars on it, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and many have failed. Now don't get me wrong you can still make profits from other people handling your advertising, but please understand that if others are doing the work for you all the time, you wouldn't be taking full advantage of the Internet's Technology.
