CA. 24U1 PORTLAND, OfttOON LESSONS of the New York Newspaper Strike Following is a summary of the findings of New York retailers as given by Edward F. Engle, manager, sales pro motion division, National Retail Merchants Association, be fore the annual convention of NRMA's sales promotion divi sion, Hollywood, Florida, April 24, 1963 Major New York City newspapers did not publish for a 114-day period from Dee. 8, 1962 to March 31, 1963, and retail stores were without their basic advertising during that period. The "Lessons" follow: Leison No. 1 There is no substitute for the doily newspaper as the major medium for retail advertising. Leison No. 2 The best substitute medium in on emergency is direct mail. This can produce excellent results over a short time, but its effectiveness tends to diminish when used too often and by too many competitors. Lesson No. 3 Television and radio can be used successfully os supplementary medio. Their effectiveness is confirmed by the promotion managers who used the medium properly prior to the strike and who continued with them during the strike. Leison No. 4 The daily newspapers and retoil stores are equally dependent upon each other for the success of their enterprises. The newspapers provide the proper editorial set ting for retoil advertising to do its best job, while conversely, retail advertising provides the fashion and other product news so necessary to the success of a newspaper. Lenon No. 5 Stores ond departments with a high fashion image were less affected by the lack of newspaper advertising than stores ond departments which depend upon advertising for more immediate returns. Leison No. 6 In o time of natural buying momentum such os Christmas, stores will not be too greatly affected by tem porary loss of newspaper advertising, provided sufficient ad vertising had already been run prior to a strike. However, once such o period is over, it is essential to stimulate con sumer interest through massive advertising or a generally depressing effect on sales will set in. The recent strike was aptly called a "creeping disaster." Leison No. 7 The downtown area of any major city is a unified shopping center whose prosperity depends upon the traffic-pulling power of a big store advertising. When this advertising is not present, as in the recent strike, the entire area, including smaller stores, restaurants and other services, feel the effects. Lenon No, 8 Advertising, especially newspaper advertis ing, is the lifeblood of the retail business, and provides for on orderly method of promoting and reordering merchandise. Without advertising, skillfully planned ond executed, retail merchandising would be in a chaotic stole. Turnover and stock-soles ratios would be much harder to predict ond con trol for lack of planned promotions. As we said, all the aforementioned lessons merely bear out previous experiences. It was a tremendous pity that these truisms had to be proven all over again at the cost of so much hardship. The full ttxf of Mr. Engle'i oddreu is available at the Herald and News advertising department. 51? Vo.i Phwt TU 4 3134 Conr OAK Qfvt BROAD
