Sportspersons have always been an inspiration for all younger ones and they endorse a wide range of sports products. Nowadays, the trend to purchase products especially advertised by athletes has many positive outcomes. However, I believe the advantages outweigh the drawbacks in this trend.
Firstly, the face of any sports product are popular sportsmen which create a good amount of income for the manufacturing companies as the youth wants to buy those units which are being advertised by their ideals. Secondly, athletes become an inspiration for all millennials and generation Z as they want to have similar personalities and inculcate all the strength and values of them. Moreover, the sportspersons also have many followers on the social media platforms and they are the best way to communicate all social messages in their country. Additionally, the profits of products are also distributed with the featured person and also the company receives a huge number of orders.
In contrast, the advertised products may impact on health as the kids might consume the wrong items such as energy drinks which have a major impact on the liver and heart. Similarly, the vitamin supplements might not be suitable for the younger ones. Also, any sports product advertisement which has dangerous acts might be performed by the novice which can be harmful for them.
To conclude, the major profits from ads of sports products are being enjoyed by the company and the athletes. However, this trend does not benefit any layman, but they may face the demerits of this trend.
