The author found significant differences in the application of promotional tools among advertisers from different types of business and sectors of the economy. It was found that the producers of goods and services greater use of television advertising than other advertising tools, but retailers use of outdoor, radio and online advertising to promote their products. Companies that sell fast moving consumer goods mainly used the television advertising. Firms selling consumer durables, instead of television ads use outdoor, internet and radio advertising. Sellers of premium and luxury goods advertise only in press, while companies from the service sector are actively using radio, outdoor and online advertising.
