CLOSER Attention
TO PUBLICITY
SECRET OF SUCCESS
Barry Record.

Barry Record
The greatest trouble in most
small communities is that the
merchants as general rule are
jealous of their competitors in
the same town or neighborinp
town and think because a spas
modic insertion of a small ad
doesn't keep them and their clerk
jumping to fill orders, it doesn't
pay to advertise. And also they
do not pay enough attention to
this most important part of their
business.
AS a general rule, in his ad
writing, when he finally does de-
eide to invest a few jitneys with
the local paper, he waits until
the last possible moment before
getting the printer the copy and
then scribbles only a few general
remarks that the public already
knows, such as, be it grocery
store: I'VE have sugar, and lots
of it," and signs his name; and
the same way with the dry goods
store: I'VE handle shirts, sox,"
and so on through the different
lines Of business. Get some pep
into you and give the people the
inducement that others are doing
and it will pay to advertise.
The sooner the merchants of
any town where such conditions
exist get to understand that get
ting up good reliable ads, in an
intelligent manner, of what they
have to sell and what prices they
want, is as important as opening
up their store in the morning,
the sooner they will learn that it
is advertising that brings in the
coin.
So many merchants and others
who have goods to advertise say:
"Oh, | haven't time to write an
adj" but still you see no one in
the store. Get busy or you will
be sorry some day to see your
trade gradually slipping away
from you, and no ones fault but
your own. What would you say
to a clerk who would tell you he
hadn't time to do certain i'm
portant duty he had to perform!
Undoubtedly it would be, Take
time or get Out" !"
Others say: Il don't have to
advertise; everybody for miles
around knows me" Sure they
do, but if you don't get up and
hustle, or shake a leg" as il
sometimes said, they put you
down as a has been, and in these
days of hustle you have to be up
and going after what you want
or someone will beat you to it.
If you haven't time or don't
know how, why don't you and
others in a like predicament get
and hire one who can
and you will make advertising
pay. This can be done at very
nominal cost.
What does it cost the large
mail order houses to advertise
and send their catalogues into
this county to get their goods be-
fore the people? There are, at q
small estimate, about 5000 large
catalogues sent into this county
each year, not to say anything of
the numerous smaller ones which
we will not speak of. The 5000
large ones cost on an average to
place in the hands of the receiv-
er, printing, postage, packing,
etc., about one dollar each. This
means $4,000 spent for printers
ink by a house hundreds of miles
away. Do you think they would
continue in business long if it
did not pay? No; they get this
amount back and much more,
and have a good profit on their
books besides.
