Ing . connection that offered you q
permanent and progressive future.
How would you 60 about cecidins
whether or not q house offered you
what you sought7
The finest salesman In the country
could not succeed unless his efforts
received adequate support from his
house. II orders were not nlled on

full co-operstion with himself. he
could not secure tho repeat orders
necessary to continuous business.
30, before pfomising to work for
Q house the salesman should fnd

seven requirements which q sales
man should insist upon In amy house
no sells for.
The nrst requirement - reputa-
tion for honorable dealing. II you
represent q house that Is known to
give . square deal you WIN be sure
OF . favorable reception. for the
customer has confidence in the
house. and confidence - the base Of
all sales. X
The second requirement is that
tho house shall deal in the kind OF
merchandise you are best qualified
to sell.
The third and fourth requirements
are that the quality and the price OF
the merchandise shall be right.
Quality 10 the more important OF
these two requirements for. es has
been truly said, "the quality Of the
merchandise IL remembered long
after the price is forgotten"
The NTH requirement is q liberal
contract. This does not mean a big
salary, but q contract which gives

The sixth requirement Is terri

mediocre salesman In the last. One
man may be best suited to the south

The seventh and last requirement
Is that the house shat. have capital
enough for the requirements OF the
business. A small business with ade-
