Place Your Advertising Agent
On His Mettle

Don't give him contract for from one to
three years.
Don't say, "For this period, all the advertis-
ing place is to be placed through you"
Make him fight to keep your business as
hard as ne fights to get it.
And let the keeping or the getting be decided
by comparative results.
This policy will come like bomb, we know,
into the old-time agency camps.
They will say, "How can agents sleep if
their business becomes as unstable as that?"
You don't want them to sleep-that's exactly
the point. You want them to keep to the mark.
Make an agent prove, when he solicits your
business, that he can outsell the rest.
And make him prove so long as he keeps it,
that no other concern can outsell him.
What would be the result if advertisers in
general adopted this sensible policy?
1t would simply be this:
No smooth-tongued statesmen, no improved
boasts no snowy ads would go.
Soliciting expense would be largely wiped
out The cost of getting contracts signed
would be spent on increasing clients results.
