story of Richard j. Reynolds, of Win
stOn-Salem, N. c.
Mr.. Reynolds believes in advertising
He reinvests between two and three per
cent of his annual sales in advertising
When you know that in 1894 the R. j
Reynolds Tobacco Company's output
amounted to many millions of pounds OF
tobacco, it isn't difficult to understand
Just what two or three per cent in ad'
vertising means in dollars and cents
The Reynolds advertising account is
among the heaviest ever known.
In 1894 Mr.. Reynolds first realized
that properly applied and backed by
tobacco worth all he asked for it, ad'
yertising was profitable. He invested
$1,000 that year and saw his business
grow over 100000 pounds, Next year
he spent five times as much-and his
business doubled
