Advertising Talk No. 2.

In writing an advertisement you
want to attract and hold the attention
of the reader. Price quotations are
the best thing to do this. Advertising
is sale talk. 1t should be truthful.
Never advertise to do something you
do not intend to carry out to the letter.
You know wether or not your prices
will attract customers. If you want
them to know that tell them so in
your ad.
Most people know you have q store,
but few know what articles you carry.
To make an ad pulp keep your busi-
ness constantly before the people.
Keep it before them so insistently
that when they think Of something
they want they will instantly think OF
your store. The psychology of adver-
Using is that keeping your business
constantly before the people they
mconsciously think of your store in
onnection with their needs. and the
sale of the article is accomplished be-
fore they com to the store.
1t is better to use small space and
keep your business constantly before
the people that to use big ads only oc-
cassiopally.
The Association of National Adver,
tisers have decided, after investiga.
tion, that three per cent of gross an.
nual safes is profitable amount t.
