POWER OF ADVERTISING


The City Directory is the power that generates information for the buyer that he may know who deals in the product he wishes to purchase. If your business is not classified properly, and a display advertisement arranged to describe your business, how can you expect the buyer to trade with you.


ADVERTISING is the foundation upon which successful busi- nesses are built. You must apply this to your own particular business.


ADVERTISING is the power of an idea multiplied.

Every Wasted Minute Costs You Money


Whether it's your time or that of an inexpensive clerk that is wasted by using an out of date directory, the loss is yours.


In the course of a year the time wasted usually costs far more than the price of a new directory.


Misdirected parcels or messages cause expense and annoyance.


Cut out this leak. Order a new city directory at once. It will pay you bigger dividends for the money invested than many of your ventures.
