Why One Advertising Appropriation Was Increased TWO partners were debating their advertising policy planning the campaign for the next six months. , Theirs is a retail store which spent in one year $12,000 on its advertising which was 5 per cent, of their yearly vol ume, a fair expenditure in their line of business. In growth of sales they could easily point out the home coining of the $12,000 with a fair and reasonable profit in its. train. For these two partners that expenditure was a profitable short-term investments One of the partners spoke up : "John," he said, "we have a cash profit in the bank from that $12,000, but we have a greater intangible profit by far it is piled up for us in the minds of every man and woman in the citv. "It is reflected in the attitude of our bankers. "It is present in the minds of the manufacturers who sell us. "It is working on the minds and purses of every one of our customers." "Whv" he continued, "this business, because of the ad vertising we have done, is worth $12,000 more than it was before we began. The1 two partners increased their appropriation, modestly, it is true. That was five yea re ago. Today, for it is in a large city, their appropriation is eight times their original amount." Their standing, with bankei-s, manufacturers, ami customers is A-l. their business has grown and has grown in a healthy wav. And still, as one of them put it "In the last five year's advertising has made money for us. Everv tent we've spent has come back to us, and has brought another with it. Rut, our real profit our big profit from that advertising is banked in the minds of the people. Ours is the best known business of its kind in , town. And that is worth a lot of money to us."
