THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
WHY DO WE DO IT?
Now, why do The Concord Tribune and Times put up SIO,OOO in gifts? Why do The Tribune and
Times guarantee every reader who is active in this election valuable consideration for his or her ef
forts? There are two reasons: *
FIRST—This is a FRIEND-MAKING ELECTION. Second —Only by conducting a FAIR and
LIBERAL election with GIFTS OF VALUE TO EVERYONE who participates, will it be possible
for The Tribune and Times to accomplish its aim.
AND what is The Tribune and Times’ aim? How can The Tribune and Times afford to give
ABSOLUTELY FREE, WITHOUT ONE CENT OF EXPENSE TO ANYONE, more than
$10,000?
HERE’S THE “HOW”
In this election The Tribune and Times hope to secure more sunbscriptions—to enlarge their al
ready large list, to secure renewals. In this election the Tribune and Times hope to add to their great
family of friends. This will be accomplished by the addition of new subscribers, by the renewal of sub
scriptions, but by the manner in which this election is conducted every reader who takes part in this
election will, when it is over, be a living advertisement for the newspapers. That is the aim.
Os course this election will NOT pay The Tribune and Times immediately in dollars and cents.
It would be unreasonable to expect that. Then, why, you may ask, do you put up so much money
when you know in advance that you cannot get it back from the subscriptions received? And the
answer:
GET MORE THAN MONEY
There are things more valuable to a newspaper than money. Subscriptions are more valuable.
Subscriptions give a newspaper prestige, power an d enhance the value of its advertising columns.
The Tribune and Times are taking their own medicine. It is advertising. It is spending money
to create subscriptions—spending money to add to their advertising patronage and to create a greater
good will. It will not pay The Tribune and Times in dollars today. But the effects of this election,
the subscribers who will be gained, the friends who will be made will be of lasting and inestimable ben
efit. The Tribune and Times are simply investing in their own future, in the future of Concord and
this territory. Frankly, in the end, it will profit The Tribune and Times. f
CIRCULATION NECESSARY
Circulation is absolutely necessary to a newspaper. But it is always an expense. No newspaper
ever made money on its subscription list. Your Tribune and Times cost the publisher more each year
to produce it and deliver it to you, than you pay. However, if by spending SIO,OOO now, The Tribune
and Times will increase their subscription list to the point where more advertisers will use its col
umns, to reach a greater number of people, then, in the years to come this SIO,OOO will be returned
time and again.
A BUSINESS PROPOSITION
It is simply a business proposition, and sound from every standpoint. No one loses, not even
The Tribune and Times. These papers, however, will not realize the benefits, and cash in on them as
soon as do our readers who carry on with us in this great gift distribution.
Our equipment is now so complete that it can care for 5,000 readers each day just as easily as it
can for half that number. And that is the goal—s,ooo subscribers —that it hopes to reach as a result
of this great gift distribution.
