But it wasn’t until the 20th century that it became big business,. Traditionally, advertising  was based on the product. Such and such washing powder makes your clothes cleaner … and so on. The shift that occurred last century focused on the people who used the product. Advertisements more and more hinted that use of the product could  associate the consumer with the rich, and the famous. More and more, sport stars were used to promote products.  All based on the fact that more and more people could afford to live a relatively rich and famous consumer lifestyle. But the 21st  century has seen subtle changes. Advertisements focuses on healthy food , healthy clothes  and comfortable healthy shoes  because people are generally worried about health problems – healthy eating and so on – and environmental issues.
