How to Write Retail
Advertising Copy
By Herbert Kaufman.

A skilled layer of mosaCs 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.
I he 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 resistance.
The advertisement which runs into noun
famous style is badly surveyed-aH minds are
not built for high leUel thinking.
Advertising must be simple. When it
is tricked out with the jewelry and silks of
literary expression it looks as much out of
place as a ball dress at the breakfast tablet
The buying public is only interested in
facts. People read advertisements to find out
qvhat you haze to sell.
The advertiser who can fire the most facts
in the shortest time gets the most returns.
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 don't allow them to sell muslin
with quotations from Omar or trousers with
excerpts from Marie Corelli. You must not
tolerate in your printed selling talk anything
that you are not willing to countenance in
personal salemanshib.
Cut out clever phrases if they are inserted
20 the sacrifice of clear explanations qgrite
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 in the world.
Sketch in your ad to the stenographer.
Then you will be SO busy saying it" that you
will not have time to bother about the gew-

ting an important detail. What remains in the
end is all that really counted in the beginning.
