Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY


IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time it Is Loaned


The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, is responsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service.


The reason is :-


There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City.


THIS COST MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.


If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY- THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST.


If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.


If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.


From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each. And


It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.


Every time you loan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.


MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.

CITY DIRECTORY USES


1. SALES PROMOTION:


a. Sales Analysis-


Comparing present amount of business obtained in a given area with possible maximum business in that area. The Householders' Directory shows the classes of business located on a street, in office buildings, in sections of the city, etc. In checking up salesmen's calls on business in an assigned territory the directory presents a picture of how many places have not been reported upon, and shows a ready list of prospects for your goods or service,


b. Leads-


Determining proper official to approach for sales interview. The alphabetical listing for each business and professional concern, shows the names of the owners, partners or officers.


C. Selected districts-


Determining parts of city best suited for increasing business. The Householders' Street Directory shows the exact type of business or residences along each street of the city-and shows if the occupant of the home is the owner.


d. Building mailing lists and direct mail campaigns-


1. List of local people (Neighborbood List) within a given radius of Business location. On a city map, draw a circle to include the ter- ritory you wish to cover in your neighborhood list. From the map you can obtain the name of each street with intersections in the circle you have drawn. In the Householders' Street Directory you will find the correct name of the occupant at each house, or building on these streets. This will give you a 100% list of the territory desired.


2. Lists of business houses and the professions-The business directory at the end of the book classifies every business and profession ac- cording to the nature of the business. Complete lists such as doc- tors, lawyers, printers, garages, auto dealers, furniture stores, con- tractors, etc., can be found in this classified directory section.


3. Vocational Lists-Such as clerks, stenographers, telephone oper- ators, carpenters, salesmanagers, purchasing agents, laborers, etc. The alphabetical directory shows the occupation of every individual in the city.


Run over the alphabetical pages-check marking the persons whose occupation is the one wanted for your list. This will give you a complete and accurate list for the entire city.


2. CREDIT:


a. Verifying customer's statements and information.


b. Information about customer.


Correct name, address, where employed and wife's name is given in the alphabetical directory for every individual. Whether he rents or owns home is usually shown in the Householders' Directory.


c. Determining character and stability of applicant for credit.


This directory gives his present occupation and residence. By referring to each yearly edition of the directory for the past few years, it is quickly determined whether the applicant holds the same job and residence, or flits from one job to another and one residence to another. After the new directory is delivered to you keep the old one on file. Never destroy it. You'll find old ones invaluable in checking your past records.

FOR EVERY BUSINESS

c. Locating streets, buildings, un-numbered houses.


A full description of every street-with location is given in the House- holders' Street Directory. When the address given is an apartment or building without street and number being given, the alphabetical section will give you the correct street and number for that building. Many buildings on streets are not numbered-or badly numbered-making it difficult to find the building wanted. The Householders' Street Direc- tory shows the location of the buildings along the streets.


4. PURCHASING:

These firms are progressive and desire a more complete classified representation of their products.
