10 POINTS
FOR
Effective Advertising
The North Carolina Merchants Association has sent its 7,200
members throughout the State "TEN POINTS FOR NEWS
PAPER ADVERTISING". The plan is one that has brought a
high measure of success, prosperity and profit to a big retailer
who spends a large portion of his advertising appropriation in
good newspaper copy.
The retailer's 10 points are: 1
?
1 Advertise regularly. Every issue of the
paper takes my story to its readers.
2 I make every ad look like mine. Years
ago 1 adopted a distinctive style and have
istuck to it. I use plenty of white space;
my ads are never hard to read.
3 I put into newspaper advertising a defi
nite proportion of my gross sales. I fix
this at the BEGINNING OF THE
YEAR. My rule is to make it 3 per cent
of the previous year's gross, with more if
special conditions justify it.
4 I brighten my ads with frequent illustra
tions ? either humorous or practical.
t
5 I am careful never to over-promise. When
I make claims, I back them up with rea
sons. Then when I really have an unusual
bargain people believe me when I "whoop
'er up a little."
6 I think advertising all the time. I buy
goods that will advertise well.
7 I get good display for my ads by seeing
that the copy is in the newspaper office
in PLENTY OF TIME. I do this by
having a definite hour to write the copy.
8 Whenever possible, I carry nationally
advertised goods that are advertised in
my home paper. I feature them. Some
times they give me a smaller margin
than fly-by-night concerns, but I find
that I sell faster and make more money
in the end, besides pleasing more cus
tomers.
9 I always plan ray window and counter
displays to link up with my newspaper
advertising. Each helps the other.
10 My sales people back up my advertising.
They often help with suggestions for it,
and I try to see to it that they always
read it.
