Two Sides of Turnover

The alert business man dealing with
present day conditions knows that
the big word today is Turnover"
Whether he be merchant, manu-
facturer, jobber, or banker, he sees
that one thing with a clear vision
unbiased by the limits of his own
business. 1t is in the 'air, and on the
tip of every tongue.
And yet many of them--entirely
too nany-are thinking on only one
side of Turnover. They think of it
as meaning rapid lling-putting
money in and getting it out quickly
and at profit. They realize that
they must put greatly increased eff
forts back of all their plans for sell
ing and distribution.
The other half of Turnover is the
consumer. All selling plans and ef-
forts fail if the consumer doesn't
want to buy. His desire for the pro-
duct must be created. He must meet
the seller half way. He must be in
mood to buy before the salesman
meets him across the counter.
That is the function of Advertis-
ing-to create consumer demand
The evening herald. (Klamath Falls, Or.) 1906-1942, 1922-07-29

and'cOnsumer preference. With this
demand rs fact all selling plans
have "a chance to succeed. Without
it they fail. The only chnace for
craftsmanship p to succeed without an
existing demand is for. craftsmanship
TO assume the task that belongs to
advertising-the task of creating.
demand.
If the present efforts that are he
ing put into selling We're amply s''p-
ported by a corresponding effort To
create consumer demand through
Adver>>ing, the business coalitions
OF this community would be rapidly
changed into an era of great pros
perity-in spite Of local conditions
and everything else.
The proof of this is in the fact
that right now, under these very
conditions, the dealers who are put
ting proper emphasis on creating a
demand for their product, as well as
selling it are doing big business
and are actually getting the high
turnover that others are trying SO
strenuously to get through intensive
selling.
