Advertising is Simply Making Your Business
Known. It is Perfectly Consistent\ With
Anyoe'sDignity or Modesty.
Is is not necessarily boasting or self -pushing. In fact, a brag
ging advertisement defeats, its purpose; it repels and does not at-
tract.
There are several points that it might be well for all aciver-
tisers to keep in mind. These are not expert items, but are sim-
ply common sense applied to, publicity,
1, 'All advertising should be. CLEAR. It ought 'to state just
what your business is and where it is, giving your precise ad-
dress. Don't assume that every one knows where the "Jones Dry
Goods Store" is, nor how to get there. Tell them. You cannot
Make (things too plain.
2. Advertising should be reckoned as a PART OF YOUR BUSI-
INESS. It is as necessary as the sign over your door. It is not
an occasional or outside matter; it is essential. How can the pub-
' lie do business with you unless they know about you?
3. It should be REGULAR AND. CONSTANT. People trade
with the firm whose name is familiar to them. The newspaper
ought' to be your partner. If you are in business permanently let
your advertising 'be permanent..
4. The newspaper going daily into the hands of the people, is
the . BEST MEDIUM for advertising It's where he public natu r-
ally turn when -they want to see where to buy, whether bonds or
»au3,
5. Advertising should be ATTRACTIVE. The most attractive
thing you can put in is something that appeals - to the self-interest
of the reader. Funny or startling matter, that has nothing to do
with your business, is not good advertising. No man can be funny
or
•
every .day. By' and by your antics become tiresome. If you can
show a woman where she can save 10 cents. or where she can
buy stuffs that last longer and wear better, it is much more to
your advantage than to crack jokes, or so begin your advertisement
with a picture of It wild Bolshevik and wind up with announcing
your superior stocks, What you want is to tell folk .that they can
get the most for their money at your place; that is the most at-
tractive fact you can publish. - -
0. BE BRIEF. Don't try to crowd all the reading matter pos.
sible into the space you pay for, so as to get your money's worth.
Use readable type and don't say too much. •
. 7. BE HUMAN. Make your advertisements as live and warm
as you can. Don't be too cold and precise, -. .
8. •Tell the TRUTH. When customers come to your store, do
a little more for them than you said you would in your announce-
ment. The prosperity of the liar is brief.
9. It is the DUTY of all HONEST concerns to advertise.
That is the best way to crowd out the fakers.
It enables newspapers to reject suspicious and questionable ad-
vertisements,
10. Advertising is necessary to ALL FORMS of Business which
appeals to the public. Banks, telephone companies, gas and other
public utility concerns, besides 'city, provincial and national Gov-
ernments, ought to keep regularly in touch with the people by ad-
vertising. • '
