The tobacco industry spends billions of dollars on ROI (return on investment) tactics each year, in order to get young people smoking and to keep them smoking. The ads are appealing, since they suggest that tobacco use will result in a positive self-image, peer acceptance, and popularity.

For example, when the government prohibits magazine and billboard advertising the industry moves to other tactics such as sponsorships (e.g., sports events), brand merchandising, brand stretching (putting tobacco brands on non-tobacco products), attractive packaging, point-of-sale promotions, and product placement.

Four strategies were detected across most of these countries: (1) display of cigarettes near snacks, sweets and sugary drinks, (2) placement of cigarette advertisements near the eye-level of children, (3) advertisements and display of flavoured cigarettes and (4) sale of single sticks of cigarettes.

A point of sale refers to any location where tobacco products are advertised, displayed, and purchased. POS includes not only the final point of purchase (i.e., the register) but also advertising at retail locations (indoor and outdoor), product display, and price.
