It is startling in its frankness, daring in its revelations, long considered too valuable to print. The ideas in the book came from a, thousand sources. But we garnered and sifted and filed them. The ways in which we employ them will give you new respect for this Agency's efficiency. This book tells how men have won millions in this way, without any risk at all. Part of the book deals with Strategy the very climax of salesmanship-in-print. This Is the science of doing, by clever maneuvers, what used to be done by sheer force of attack. National distribution is attained in a month. New products are made im mediately profitable. Advertising is re lieved of nearly all its uncertainties. How this is done , is shown by what has been done by cited examples in this new book. The book also tells how we get infor mation. Old-time advertisers merely guessed at what would lead people to buy. They learned trade conditions through costly mistakes. - Now the wise reconnoiter. They make an actual canvass of dealers and users instead of depending on theory, guesswork and chance. Then they start their campaigns with a skirmish line an experiment, perhaps. It also shows how one may profit by other men's experience. Most selling ideas have been tested out. Most of our problems have been somewhere solved, most of the pitfalls discovered. What folly it is to grope in the dark when one may be guided by recorded facts. A thousand concerns have contrib uted to our storehouse of ideas. This book gives an insight to it. Any man with a selling problem Is welcome to this book. And every such man should have it. The ideas it reveals are of wide appli cation. They will better your qualifi cations. It will lead to better advertising. And better advertising always leads our way. Cut out this reminder; put it in your pocket. Then, when convenient, writ us for the book.
