"How We Put Preparedness Into Our Business" A Pdfajr that Has Broct Success to the MgRomU & No Company of Buffalo, H. Y. . By EUGENE NOE ' ' ' rf sometimes takes a sort of shook to wake a man up to things he need in Ms business. Ill never forget one evening when I was down at the office looking over the footings of 800 bills before they were mailed out to customers. I found an overcharge of $10.00 on one account and by perverse luck) it was the same customer to whom the same thing had happened the previous month. That set me thinking and I wondered: How many errors like that were slipping by? Such mistakes were costly. When they were against the customer it caused dis satisfaction. When they were against us it played havoc with our profits. Something had to be done to prevent errors in our bookkeeping. What we actually did had a bigger result than we ex pected. It put preparedness into our business preparedness that is based on accuracy, promptness and knowl edge. It brought us success in 1915 and will enable us to take the fullest advantage of increased opportunities; in 1916. An Employee that Makes No Mistakes IN 1914 we put into our office anemployee that couldn't make mistakes, a Burroughs figuring machine. WW It proved the biggest thing we ever did for our businea. I believe protection to our charge sales alone was worth the price, but this was only the beginning of the things that machine k doing for us. . It not only assures accuracy it saves time and cuts bookkeeping costs in two-. . Nineteen Year Old Girl Does All the Bookkeeping MISS WILSON is the only clerk in our office but she does more, with the Burroughs, than two grown men could do by hana methods. She posts our ledgers, gts out statements and trial bal ances, journalizes sales, checks invoices and has time to be a stenographer ' besides. . She marks each active account with a marker, then goes back and adds up the day's postings on the Burroughs to check against the total of the Blips. 1 This method gives absolute proof every day that all items are charged and charged correctly i . , No Leaks in Our Charge Sales EVERY day at close of business Miss Wilson checks the additions of our charge slips with the BuiTOugh.-i. It takes only a few minutes to run through -charges on 300 accounts; and she knows the totals are right, for the Burroughs can't . add wrongly. Then she sorts the slips and copies them on the customers' statements which we keep in duplicate in u looedeuf binder, filing the carbons and sending out originals monthly. The Machine Helps in Other Ways IT just seems to fit everywhere into our "know your business" policy. - We check all our incoming invoices chain discounts, additions and extensions. We use it at inventory time to extend all : prices and foot amounts. . What It All Means WE don't make mistakes in bills, wo get out statements on the first, we know what it costs to sell our merchan dise, we know our prices are right, wo know how rent, heat, light, selling, etc., stand in relation to sales. Ami the. only employees in the office are a Burroughs and a nineteen-year-old gtrl. Yes, the Burroughs has done more than i any other one thing to put real prepared- ness into our business. $125 (In CnwU $169)' Protecting the Retailer's Profits Whatever your business, your profits are dependent on keeping accounts accurately. - A Burroughs will do that for you in a fraction of the time, at a fraction of the cost required to do the work mentally. You or your bookkeeper will have time for other work and you will have the figure facts on which to build a bigger business. This story about the Buffalo hardware store shows what a Burroughs can do tor any retailer. In the Burroughs line are 98 models with 587 different combinations of features. "Talk with the Burroughs representative in" your city or locality and let him show you how you can cut out the drudgery of handling figures. Your banker or your telephone book . will give you the address of the nearest Burroughs office or write Burroughs, Detroit, Michigan.
