growth in the business o f a company
o f this kind depends upon the pop­
ulation growth, industrial activities
and prosperity in the area where it
distributes electric current.
Two main problems are involved
in the sales efforts o f this company.
First: to persuade the individual,
corporation or other organisation o f
operators already located in the lim­
ited area o f Copco service to use
electricity to a maximum economic
degree. Secondly: to interest per­
sons elsewhere, who, if aware o f the
advantages to be gained by locating
their homes or enterprises in this
region, would do so— and thus be­
come potential users o f hydroelectric
power.
The first o f these functions Is per­
formed hy the company's Commer-
rial Department; the second, by its
New Industries IVpartment. The
Volt aims to supplement these tw,
departments to aid them in the at
tainment o f the ends in view by dis­
seminating information relative to
the field o f Copco operations. While
some o f the facts it seta forth hear
directly on the use and development
o f hydroelectricity, others are only
remotely, if at all, connected with
the business o f the company.
