==Campaign success==
On July 7, 1964, William F. Wright of Wright, Campbell and Suitt Advertising wrote a letter to another advertising agency in Charlotte, NC, recommending that they use Muppets Inc. for an ad campaign. "Our experience is this," he wrote. "We put the Muppets on for Kraml Dairy about six years ago. At that time, Kraml ranked 23rd in sales among 50 Chicago dairies. Three years later, Kraml ranked 5th. In Jim Kraml's own words, 'We have been around for fifty years. Until we had the Muppets, nobody had heard of us outside a five-mile radius from the dairy. Today, everyone within fifty miles of Chicago knows Kraml Dairy.'"
