Many consumers ignore commercial advertisements. In response, advertising companies have started using a new tactic, called “buzzing." The advertisers hire people, buzzers, who personally promote (buzz) products to people they know or meet. The key part is that the buzzers do not reveal that they are being paid to promote anything. They behave as though they were just spontaneously praising a product during normal conversation. Buzzing has generated a lot of controversy, and many critics would like to see it banned.
First, the critics complain that consumers should know whether a person praising a product is being paid to praise the product. Knowing this makes a big difference: we expect the truth from people who we believe do not have any motive for misleading us. But with buzzing what you hear is just paid advertising, which may well give a person incorrect information about the buzzed product.
Second, since buzzers pretend they are just private individuals, consumers listen to their endorsements less critically than they should. With advertisements in print or on TV, the consumer is on guard for questionable claims or empty descriptions such as "new and improved." But when consumers do not know they are being lobbied, they may accept claims they would otherwise be suspicious of. This may suit the manufacturers, but it could really harm consumers.
And worst of all is the harmful effect that buzzing is likely to have on social relationships. Once we become aware that people we meet socially may be buzzers with a hidden agenda, we will become less trustful of people in general. So buzzing will result in the spread of mistrust and the expectation of dishonesty.
The speaker, who is a buzzer, talks about the positive impacts of buzzers in different aspects which the reading criticised. The speaker states that all the author's reasons are misleading and the information is wrong.
First, the buzzers asserts that he is a student, who is hired by a cellphone company to advertise its product. He avers that this idea that buzzers have motivation to mislead people is not true and adds that they are consumers who believe srtrongly product which they propagagte is wonderful. Based on his assertment the companies select satisfied costomers and hire them to advertise. He mentions that they truly believe that this product which they advertise is good and there is not any motivation to mislead other people. Therefore, he rejects the writer's reason about misleading practice by buzzers.
Second, the lecturer rebuts the writer's opinion that people who listend to a buzzers accept them directly with no question. Conversely, he posits that people who he talk about cell-phone ask miriad diverse questions and if he cannot answer those questions people avoid buying that product. Wiht this explanaion he directly refutes the writer's critics that people accept the buzzers with close eyes.
Third, the student who talk for the class points out if product, the buzzers advertize, is not excellent, companies cannot hire them. In reality, when they introduce poeple with a high quality product, buzzers will be more open up and end up being more trustful. As he insists buzzers can increase the trustworthy in communities with correct information they provide people with about high-quality products. He flatly repudiates the writer's idea which this practice,buzzing, led up declining the trustworhty in societies.
