"l owe my success to
my wife and the Bell
Telephone," wrote in a
grocer from the northern
part of the city.
"It was she who firat
suggested we try andxget
ahead faster by using our
Bell Telephone to ask
what 0 u r customers
wanted each morning
rather than wait for
them to come to us.
"Each day an hour or
so 1 was spent in calling
our list of patrons. Just
a pleasant 'Good morn
ing' and an inquiry for
the daily table needs
brought a goodly num
ber of orders.
"The flrst month
showed an increase of 15
per cent, in sales. Since
then we have had an
other telephone installed
and are doing 64 per
cent, more business."
His experience can be your
gain, too. Just try "serving"
by Bell Telephone and watch
the increase in YOUR trade!
