Anaheim, California I Can't Afford To Advertise, Business Isn't Good Enough-- Our Advertising Man has heard this frequently and, now asks us permission to answer this: MR. MERCHANT: You can't afford to advertise. Probably you don't realize it, but if you did advertise consistently, business would be better. Oh, I know, your case is different. So was the case of John Wanamaker, Henry Ford, Marshall Field, R. H. Macy and hundreds of others — 40 years ago. Look around you, Mr. Merchant. Who are the leaders in business and industry today? Name the one that isn't and hasn't been a consistent advertiser for years. You can't afford to advertise. Probably you don't realize it, but if you did advertise consistently, business would be better. Oh, I know, your case is different. So was the case of John Wanamaker, Henry Ford, Marshall Field, R. H. Macy and hundreds of others — 40 years ago. Look around you, Mr. Merchant. Who are the leaders in business and industry today? Name the one that isn't and hasn't been a consistent advertiser for years. A few years ago several products were well known to thousands of Americans. Among them were Cream of Wheat, Force, Sapolio, Pears Soap, Sweet Caporal, Helmar, Egyptian Deities Cigarettes, Cole, Chalmers, Pope, Hartford, Mitchell automobiles and many others. When did you last hear of any of them? Not for years. The reason is simple — someone was short sighted to believe it was economical to curtail or stop advertising. The result — they soon dropped out of sight, lost business and today are either struggling along in comparative obscurity or have been forced out altogether by the more up-to-date concern that advertisises and keeps on advertising. Name me the biggest businesses today and you'll name the biggest advertisers — automobiles, radios, cigarettes, manufacturers, bus lines, airways. "Yes, my business is different," you say. Oh, Yeah!
