Advertise Your Good Things
Many a limping business is kept from healthful development by the morbid aversion of one of a firm's members to publicity -- perhaps he is honestly so conscious of the excellency of his wares that he expects the world to search them out. But the busy world hasn't time. If you have a good thing to sell proclaim it from the housetops. The world wants good things, but it can't discover them in hiding places. Bring them into the market place.
