"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.
