We Get Out Of Life What We Put Into It.
We Get Out of Advertising What We Put In It.

Many merchants of Fargo would advertise if they had the time
to prepare, the copy. but when copy has to be prepared amid the
other duties of the store meeting customers, selling goods collect
ing accounts. purchasing, and the like, will it be the kind that will
produce results. \
How can the busy merchant prepare good copy after his days
business, when his brain is tagged, his best energy gomez He
doesn't do himself credit nor the medium through which he wants to
reach the prospective customer justice.
To meet these conditions--for there are many in Fargo--many
good business men whose volume of business does not allow of their
employing an advertising speciaist--The Fargo Forum has employ
ed men--men who have studied the game--who are not only sales
men---thats the least of it-!they are advertising writers.
They study modern advertising.
These men are at the service of Fargos merchants. They will
assist the merchants to build their business wisely economically,
from the advertising standpoint. They will prepare your copy, plan
your campaign---ever mindful that your success is ours.
Call 1895 and ask for an advertising expert Cease patching up
any sort of an ad and then being disappointed, but use right copy
and watch your business grow
