Consumer Protection Act 2021 - Product Returns. Expert says

Good afternoon My name is Pavel Krokha. I work as a store director for the Euroset-Retail company. Experience in sales - 3 years. Management experience - 2 years. Today I would like to discuss such a difficult topic for many as “Consumer Rights Protection Law”.

There is an opinion that the majority of Russian citizens are legally uneducated. While working at the Euroset-Retail company, I came across this. People are completely unaware of their rights when exchanging and returning.

Therefore, I propose to consider the following topics: “How to return defective equipment (smartphone, tablet)”, “How to correctly write a complaint to the seller”, “Your rights when exchanging or returning defective products”. In general terms, we will discuss all these topics in one article.

David Ogilvy on advertising

In the world of PR, advertising and marketing, David Ogilvy is referred to as the “Father of Advertising” or the “Wizard of the Advertising Industry.” During his 88-year life, this man managed to open more than 30 representative offices of his company in various parts of the world. It is difficult to list all the famous clients, among the most famous brands: Adidas, American Express, British Petroleum, Coca-Cola, Ford, IBM and many, many others. And Ogilvy and his team managed to find an approach to each client and increase sales, sometimes significantly. Books written by D. Ogilvy, such as “Secrets of an Advertising Agent”, “Simply About Advertising” or “Theoretical Aspects of Image”, have long been dismantled into aphorisms.

Quotes about advertising from David Ogilvy:

A good advertisement is one that sells a product without calling attention to itself.
The more informative your ad is, the more persuasive it will be.
When trying to convince a consumer to do or buy something, it seems to me that you need to use their language, the one in which people think.
In order to attract the attention of customers and encourage them to buy a product, you need a big idea. If an advertisement lacks a huge idea, it will pass unnoticed, like a ship in the dark at night. I have doubts that more than one company in a hundred has this idea.
What you say in an advertisement is more important than how you say it.
I don't view advertising as entertainment or an art form, I view it as a medium. When I write an ad, I don't want you to tell me you think it's creative. I want you to find her interesting enough to purchase the product I am promoting.
Consumers still buy products whose advertising promises them value for money, beauty, healthy eating, relief from suffering, social status, and so on.
Advertising, not transactions, builds brands.

Leo Burnett on marketing and advertising

Leo Burnett is one of the most creative and expressive progenitors of marketing and advertising. Leo's company is notable for the fact that it was opened during the Great American Depression. Then Leo and his friend Jack Okeefe borrowed fifty thousand dollars from friends and began their conquest of advertising Olympus. Friends said that Leo had gone crazy and in a few months his company would close, and he himself would sell apples. Now, in every office of the company founded by Leo, there is a bowl of apples, which is designed to motivate employees. Isn't this the best advertising in the world?

Quotes and aphorisms by L. Burnett:

Advertising is the ability to feel, to interpret. In order to put the very heart of business on paper.
If someone wants to be original just to stand out, they might show up to work with a sock in their mouth.
I believe that advertising is dangerous not because it deceives people, but because it can make you die of boredom.
Just make great advertising and the money will come.
