“Stopping advertising to save money is like stopping your watch to save time.” – Henry Ford

Designers need to make money off of something as well, and thus, who could blame them for creating advertisements? The advertisement industry is still one of the better payers. In contrast to the owner of your local pizza place, the ad customer is fully aware of the design's evanescence. To put it in other words: You don't need to discuss about the appearance for hours. The owner of Luigi's Pizza Palazzo has a very different point of view on that. In most cases, the difficulty in designing ads isn't based on the creative or communicative aspect. The bigger problem is the heterogeneity of possible target platforms. However, there are many websites where you will find creative advertising flyer template & posters to create a great design.
