Are the firms advertising for
agents engaged IN legitimate business

There has bcon and still is 4 good
deal Of "bunk" in some OF tho ltcra-
ture sent out by firms employing
agents. Some Of this literature paints
altogether too rosy pictures. On the
whole, however. the agency business
is sound and legitimate. The majority
Of the FIRMS selling their goods
through agents arc reliable and trust
worthy.

one time OF a firm which sold It's
product direct to the consumer
through agents My investigation
showed that the "lifc" Of the average
agent was six weeks. We had men
who had been with US for years.

come and go. Tho average OF them
all put together was, as stated SIX
weeks. This means that firm mar
kctins their product through agents
must constantly replace the agents
who, FOR one reason or another, drop
out. Advertising for agents with
its consequent expense FOR cxplana-
tory literature, is rather expensive
So these firms must, pcrforcc, make
their proposition as attractive as
possible. some few of them so over
