THE HERALD'S ADVERTISING
SCHOOL.

Picking up an exchange today, the
writer noted the advertisement OF a
coal dealer. 1t had a caption in
big black type as follows:
Mr.. Wiseman Says"
The advertisement went on to state
that Now is the time TO buy coal
cheap" This was in small type.
Tins is an illustration OF a COM
mon error in emphasis. The pub
lie would not care to know what any
mythical mir. Wisemau" says. If it
can get its fuel cheaper at a given
time, it wants to know it and to be re-
minded Of it. The words buy coal
cheap" and now arc the only ones
in that advertisement that could in
fluence the public mind. Those should
have been set in the heavy type.
The advertisements writer should
always keep in mind appealing direct
to the motives that most influence
the buying public. These motives are
such as the following:
10 reduce the cost of living.
To buy Tor low prices.
To get substantial goods that will
wear.
To get the latest styles.
To get goods that are artistically
attractive.
And in food products, to get appetz-
ing sanitary and attractive goods at
low prices.
Semi-weekly herald. [volume] (Durango, Colo.) 1907-1917, 1915-08-30

An advertisement that does not APP
peal To the above motives or some
thing equally forcibile is defective. II
may be useful, and help keep the adj
yertiser before the public. But it
does not give the advertiser the full
benefit OF the money which he has
paid for his space.
10 sum up the suggestions of these
lessons, the following may be offer
ed as series of notices for the adj
'ertising writer:
/. Use the reason why motive.
2. Don't crowd too much small
,spo into your space.
3. Give the public information
about your goods.
a. Use plain language as you would
talk to a customer over the counter
5. Give definite facts about the
goods and state prices.
6. Make the advertising newsy by
telling what has happened in your
store.
z. Emphasize the words and SEN
fences that will appeal most keenly
TO the public.
8. Address yourself directly to the
motives that lead people to buy.
