Surrogate Advertising is an advertising concept that is used by advertisers to promote products that are banned and cannot be advertised through a proper media channel.
Surrogate Advertising takes the help of a product category that is close to the product it wants to advertise and uses it to hammer the brand name in the consumer's mind through the ad campaign.
Example - Alcohol advertisement is banned in countries like India and advertisers use mineral water and club soda as part of Surrogate Advertising.
