brewer vicepresident ferryhanly advertising company j youwlll frequently see in big city papers a halfpage advertisement fea turing only one item a womans hat for example that advertisement may have cost 500 and you wonder how it pays for itself some women went in and bought that hat there was a profit in that others who went in didnt like that particular hat tout bought another there was profit in that some bought no hat at all but passed other counters whpre they saw other things which they bought there was- a profit in that of those who came there were some who had not been regular patrons but who will come back some day to buy something else and there will be a profit in that over a long period of time but the largest profit of all is from those who do not come in as a result of the hat advertisement at all they are the many who when they saw the advertisements were reminded that the store sells the type of goods they like and so they decide to shop in that store the next time they go to town this latter group will outnumber all the other groups combined perhaps as much as 50 to 1 or 100 to 1 merchants who expect every ad in their local weekly to literally pull its head off should keep in mind that big city advertisers- expect no such results they depend on thestcady pull of ad vertising to build always a larger group of buyers who will at least remember their store enough to come in it is line but foolish to expect quick miracles from advertising but go into it believcing in its long pull results and you will see results in a steadily growing list of customers v
