ADVERTISING NO 5 How Alexander Untied the Knot By Herbert Kaufman Alexander the Great was being shown the Gordaaa Knot It cant be untied they told him ewesy man who tried to do it fell down But Alexander was not discouraged because sfhss rest had flunked He simply realized that he wouSl have to go at it in a different way And instead 3r wasting time with his fingers he drew his sword anil slashed it apart Every day a great business general is shown soma knot which has proven too much for his competitors and he succeeds because he finds a way to cut it The fumbler has no show so long as there is a brother mer chant who doesnt waste time trying to accomplish the impossible who takes lessons from the failures about him and avoids the methods which were their downfall The knottiest problems in trade are 1 The problem of location 2 -The problem of getting the crowds 3 The problem of keeping the crowds 4 The problem of minimizing fixed expenses 5 The problem of creating a valuable good wilt None of these knots is going to be untied by fum bling fingers They are too complicated Theyre all involved together twisted and entangled over and about each other so intertwined that they cant be solved singly like the Gordian Knot they must be ci through at one stroke And you cant cut the knot with any sword except the newspaper because 1 A store that is constantly before the people makes its own neighborhood 2 Crowds can be brought from anywhere by daily advertising 3 Customers can always be held by induce ments 4 Fixed expenses can only be reduced by in creasing the volume of sales 5 Good will can only be created through pub licity Advertising is breeding new giants every year and making them more powerful every hour Publicity is the sustaining food of a powerful store and the only strengthening nourishment for a weak one The re tailer who delays his entry into advertising must pay the penalty of his procrastination by facing move giant competitors as every month of opportunity slips by Personal ability as a close purchaser and as a clever seller doesnt count for a hang so long as other men are equally well posted and wear the sword of publicity t boot They are able to tie your business into constantly closer knots while you cannot retaliate because there is no knot which their advertising cannot cut for them Yesterday you lost a customer today tliey took one tomorrow theyll get another You ccrivt copa with their competition because you havent the w rn with which to oppose it You cant untie yourGcrtu Knot because it cant be untied youve got to cut You must become an advertiser or you must the penalty of incompetence You not only require the newspaper to fi - - more hopeful tomorrow but to keep iodcys s - from becoming hopeless Copyiisrht I90S by
