AT SECOND , q My Advertising Man q 0 Insists that I Publish jj q This Letter q OLast Wednesday, January Bth I wrote my advertising man A outlining some ideas I wanted incorporated in my publicity. He v • wrote back "Publish that letter you wrote me that's better • Q advertising than I can give you." So here's the letter, or the ad- Q ~ vertising part of it, reproduced verbatim. • 0 Dear Mr. Fchlman: . U 0 1 wish yotr ami Mr.. Barrett w.otxtd get your beads together" artd A send me a few clever ads.. Something exciting" ami to the point. y • For instance;, some women are so thoughtless, if I tggy s> term it, • Otbat when going to shop they will say to themselves—l A wotild go in Mary Sachs' shop this season, but I only intend to V • spend $50.00 for a coat." Somehow, they go to the cheapest • 0 bouses in Harris burg, a concern that sells coats for $lO.OO to $50.00 A and they are willing to pay $50.00 for one of their coats. V • Xow, my $50.00 garments are made by the same house that fj makes my $200.00 garments. They represent the same tailoring IJ • w and details of high-class merchandise and we show as much con • sideration to the customer who buys the SSQX)O garment as to the II one who buys the $200.00 garment. And yet, this class of people 0 V will not come in my store because they thihk lam high priced. • I want to be very emphatic in my talk and tell them that I know a Q I am selling merchandise closer than inr other merchant in Har- 0 V risburg. J 0 1 am trying to build the foundation of my business with but one A thought in mind and that is, that when customers go out of my y • establishment, and compare their purchases with those of others, • 0 1 want my merchandise to exceed in quality and at less cost. This A is the one thing that is going to establish my trade for tin- com- V • ing season. - • OAnd in one of my ads, I want to invite a little trouble by urging 0 the people to come back with their complaints. While I claim that • I have efficient help and know what I am about, I know we are • 1 not infallible and I don't want anyone to feel that the garment 0 V they purchased, did not come up to their expectations.
