The owner Of retail hat store writes me to ask
how to advertise hats
Idcn't know. haven't thought much about hats
Ten to / should do something Revolutionary;
perhaps advertise to buy the customers old hat AS
rule he is glad TO get rid of it, OF that would
cut the profit in two but then the sales would multiply
BY ten or perhaps by fifty and the store would get
talked about.
Perhaps wouldn't do that at all make the
suggestion simply to lei this hat dealer know that if
owned his store should get up and shake myself
make some sort Of a noise; not stand around behind
the countes leaning everything, waiting for a
customer who is six blocks away the other side of
the street going north to change his mind, back
cross over, and by chance in his hurry notice
that have hats in my window.
Tell hundred thousand men who wear hats and
who buy two hundred thousand hats year that You
have the goods the kind they are looking for If that
doesn't wake them up then give away a hat-band and
necktie and pair of gloves; cram the hats full Of
ham sandwiches do something. Your business is to
sell hats, not store them.
have patience with the retail dealer who
depends on the sidewalk and the weather for his trade
But It isn't necessary to be sensational; simply
make readable of your advertising. II is the
business Of the newspapers to distribute news and

Using is ten times interesting to me than the

Good advertising is news. Print this on the
