ABOUT ADVERTISING-NO
How to Write Retail
Advertising Copy.
By Herbert Kaufman.

A skilled layer OF mOsalCs works with
small fragments of stone-they fit into more
places than the larger chunks.
The skilled advertiser works with small
words-they fit into more minds than big
phrases.
The simpler the language the greater GER
tainty that it will be understood by the least
intelligent reader.
The construction engineer plans his road
bed where there is minimum of grade-he
works along the lines of least remittance.
The advertisement which runs into noun
famous style is badly surveyed-dH minds are
not built for high IeVeI thinking.
Advertising must be simple. When il
is tricked out with the jewelry and silks of
literary expression it looks as much out of
place as a ball dress at the 6reGkfGst tablet
The buying public is only interested in
facts. People read advertisements to find out
wh0t gON haze to sell.
The advertiser who can fire the most facts
in the shortest time gets the most rstErWI.
Blank cartridges make noise but they do not hit
blank talk, however clever, is only wasted
space.
You force your statesmen to keep to solid
faCts-you don't allow them to sell muslin
with quotations from Omar or trousers with
excerpts from Marie CorelG. You must not
tolerate in your printed selling talk anything
that you are not willing to countenance in
PeryOn0I s0IesmGNJhib.
Cut out clever phrases if they are inserted
to the sacrifice of clear explanations
COPY as you talk. Only be more brief. Publicity
is costlier than conversation-ranging in price
downward from 5000 line, talk is not cheap
but the most expensive commodity inthe world.
Sketch in your ad to the stenographer.
Then you will be so busy saying 1t " that you
will not have time to bother about the gew-
gaws of writing. Afterwards take the type
written manuscript and cut out every word
and every line that can be erased without omit
ting an important detail. What remains in the
end is all that really counted in the beginning.
