In monopolistically competitive markets, advertising plays a critical role in the competitive ebbs and flows of such markets. The monopolistically competitive firms use the advertising tool as a means of differentiating their product from those of their competitors. An effective advertising campaign could give rise to the development of brand loyalty (and hence, a steady revenue stream).
