CUTTING DOWN EXPENSE
Copyright 1912 by Geo. e. Patterson

Is advertising al expense or IN investment? This is an interesting
question and one that should command the thoughtful consideration Of
every merchant.
Expense is the laying out money temporarily in the conduct of a
business, while investment is "the act of laying ut money In the pur-
chase OF a species of property, usually of a permanent nature" Ex
pense is money spent In running a business, while investment is money
spent tin building up a permanent and profitable business.
We frequently hear a merchant say, "u have to cut down on my
advertising a IS my expense is too high" The merchant really means
that his selling cost is too high. II the merchants selling cost Is too
high thu n real way to reduce II is to increase sales In this way ad-
vertisins reduces selling cost o n expense. 1t is readily seen that any
thing that increases sales reduces the expense, or selling cost, and be-
comes thereby a valuable force n asset in the business. How a ad-
vertising be an expense If it reduces expense?
Advertising is lasting in its effect. For instance the right kind of
an ad put in this issue continues to pull business until the paper is
destroyed and for a long time afterward. The right kind Of an ad will
leave a impression upon the mind of the reader that time will only
brighten. A big retail firm in New York City said that $1,000 spent In
the right kind of advertising this year would be worth $4,000 next year
and $4,000 the next, and Sc on.
Its very evident that advertising is permanent in its nature and is
an investment. That being true it is foolish for the merchant to cut
thus cutting down expense.
