With proper testing, education and methodology you too can be guaranteed results from your advertising.
The first return on investment from your advertising efforts will be an inquiry about your product. It may be to a salesperson in a store, a phone call or an email.
The first tangible Return from an Advertiser's money, when invested in Space, Is an Inquiry about their product That Inquiry may be verbal to a Clerk over the counter, or-it may be by Mail, in a written, stamped, and posted letter.
It may less conviction in Copy to make a Consumer write an email, and send it, as it would have taken to influence the same Consumer inquire verbally for the goods advertised, when visiting a store.
When she talks to a retailer it there are 2 to 3 times as many chances of substitution. The salesperson may try to sell the customer a higher commission item or the one that is in stock. Whereas if the customer orders online or by phone there is less of a chance of substitution.
The ad which pulls consumers into retail outlets must be as full of influence as profitable mail order advertising. The consumer must be fortified against substitution.
Therefore, the Advertisement which sends Consumers to Retailers, should be as full of Conviction as the successful Mail-Order Advertisement, in order to fortify that Consumer against substitution, Don?t keep it, and Here's-something-better.
Because, if the Advertisement fails to thus fortify the Consumer with "Reason-Why" and conviction, it may simply send him to the Retail Store to be switched on to a competing line of goods with which the Retailer is heavily stocked, or which his Clerks favor the sale of in preference to ours. In that case the Advertising we pay for would sell goods for our non-advertising competitors. Half the money spent to "Keep-the-Name-before-the-People" results to day in this substitution of non-advertised articles for the articles advertised through General Publicity or branding.
In contrast to general publicity "Reason-Why Advertising" or Salesmanship-on-Paper, ROI is predictable. Consumers need only be convinced 1 time, through "Reason why advertising" or "Salesmanship- on-paper," we thus convince him, and more than fortifying him against substitution.
With reason why advertising they begin using the article with an advance knowledge of, and belief in, its good points, his appreciation becomes permanent if the goods merit it. He therefore makes a second, third, and further consecutive purchases of the article as a result of having once read a single convincing "Reason-Why" advertisement about it.
We also help his imagination to find and recognize, in the article advertised, the very qualities claimed and proved for it in the Copy. These qualities he might never have discovered for himself, nor appreciated if he had casually discovered them, in a mere Curiosity purchase.
He therefore makes a second, third, and further consecutive purchases of the article as a result of having once read a single convincing Reason Why advertisement about it. This is where large and cumulative profits must come to the General Advertiser-on the second, third and continued purchases by Readers of the first advertisement that reached their Convictions.
The difference in Results from Space in which this direct selling force of "Reason-Why" has been used, and in results from similar space filled with "General Publicity," is often more than 60 per cent. Conclusive tests on Copy have clearly proved this, and preceding article cites a vivid example of it from actual experience
