How Much to Spend

Every business man makes a study
of how much to spend each year for
advertising. The Trade Booster >
a publication issued by a big shoe
manufacturing company, gives the
result of IT'S experience and observa
ton as follows:
Advertising will pay any mer-
chant, even those in the smallest
towns, as well as 1t pays the big city
department stores
mo definite rule can be laid down
as to the amount of money necessary
to successfully advertise a retail
business. The large city department
stores spend ) to 10 per cent of their
gross business. In our judgment an
advertising appropriation of 2 to 4
per cent would be the proper amount
for dealers in towns"
THE local newspaper is a strong
ldCIOI III every CNllltlluiilJy - Wei
written advertisement in your local
paper IL sure TO be G and read by
the people"
The local paper with a circula
ton Of 900 goes into that many
homes every issue. The rate # a
paper with this circulation is about
10 cts per inch. A 9 inch 3-column
advertisement occupying a total
space Of q inches will cost YOU
500. If you print this same adv.
in the form of a circular to be mail
ed into 1000 homes, the postage
alone would amount to $1,000, and
the circular would probably not at
tract as much attention as the news
paper"
But don't expect to advertise two
or three times and get results. You
must plan a consistent campaign. A
l0-inch 3.column adv. every week is
better than a full page once a
month"
