Read Your Character
By Digbv Phillips
Selling tho Variable Slant

Suppose you're one Of those tailors
who do considerable business with
men who live out of town. You have
their measurements, and every once in
while they write you for samples,
pick out a suit and tell you to 60
ahead and make 1t.
Suppose you have just received a let =
ter from one Of your customers, md
you note that his writing has that
helter. .skelter appearance, due to the
fact that the strokes slant sometimes
one way and somtimes another. The
writing in some places looks us though
1t might be classed as vertical, In
others decidedly Spencerian.
Would this tell you anything about
what you ought to do in submitting
samples to him? It ought to. I,
ought to tell you something very I'M
portant.
In a previous article you have prob.
ably noticed that this variable slant
type of writing indicates q variable
mind. 1t indicates the man who Is
prone to make up his mind and then
change 1t afterward.
You don't want to send him too many
samples. The more you send him the
more he will hesitate In coming to q
choice and the less likely he will be to
write you afterword to tell you about
1t. Study your past business with him
and narrow the samples down to Just
0s few as you can send.
