Some Disadvantages to TV Advertising
Some of the advantages to advertising your small business on television include the following:

- It reaches viewers when they’re the most attentive.
- It allows you to convey your message with sight, sound, and motion, which can give your business, product, or service instant credibility.
- It gives you an opportunity to be creative and attach a personality to your business, which can be particularly effective for small businesses that rely on repeat customers.
Some Disadvantages to TV Advertising
- Barring late night spots on your local cable television network, no other advertising medium is as likely to eat up your budget as quickly as TV will.

- It can also be difficult to effectively target your core audience with television advertising.
