Traveling Men
The most successful manufacturers and
wholesale concerns today are those who
advertise direct - to the consumer. Not
necessarily for direct orders, for most of
them do not till till retail orders by mail
or otherwise. But by creating a strong
demand for their products among the
liest class of buyers, they practically
compel the retailer to carry their goods
in stock—or lose trade.
Traveling men for srtch concerns as
these sell more goods at less expense
than drummers for houses that do not
advertise.
If you are a manufacturer or wholesal
er, start-your campaign in this'newspa
per, let the -Massengale Advertising
Agency, of Atlanta, Ga., plan and pre
pare your advertisements, and you 11
learn the value of the right sort of adver
tising.
