The concept of advertisements and general product promotion is not something that started in recent times, many of the earliest entrepreneurs knew how to produce goods and make communicational strategies that would increase people’s awareness of their products to influence their purchase patterns.

In the United States, taverns and coffeehouses often characterized the earlier signs, here, tradesmen and other entrepreneurs would paint their shops and business infrastructure creatively with pictorials that symbolized the products they made or the services they offered (Kelsen 2010). There were names of certain entrepreneurs painted on boards and posts, however, most of these signs would only be found on the entrepreneur’s premises.

There were cases where certain events were to take place in certain places, in this case, the means of advertising and inviting people to the function was often facilitated by creatively designed and printed handbills that would announce the events (Kelsen 2010). In addition, they also came in handy when announcing business auctions, stagecoach timetables as well as traveling theater groups that moved from one place to another.
