Are marketers really engaging consumers to act favorably through branding done by advertising or consumers simply enjoy marketing communication and respond with inaction? Relation of Cognition, Affect and Behavior (CAB) with Advertising is explored in this paper. Issues pertaining to effectiveness of advertising are much discussed among industry and academicians alike. Ability of advertisement to build brand attitude then to translate brand attitude into purchase (behavior) and finally bring permanency in behavior though entrenched, strong and favorable consumer attitude is focal point of this research.
