Seven-year-old Wayne Turpin, 2709 Shelby st., is in critical condition today with burns despite blood transfusions from his parents, The child, now at City hospital, needs more blood transfusions.

“Let's Get Out of This Fog!

We keep talking—and listening ta others talk— about the postwar economy. Flood of consumer goods . . . sharp increase in strikes . , . governmental interference . . . continuance of controls . . . phrases, warnings, mutterings, head shakings. The one point on which virtually everybody agrees is that now this nation will need MORE merchandise of all kinds than ever in its history. Well, is that bad? But we can’t stop there. We mustn’t assume, as some of us unfortunately do assume, that because the country needs goods those goods will sell themselves. They've got to be SOLD. So— whatever surface conditions oMtain at any given moment—the basic American job remains what it always has been, to SELL. Not simply to sell people what they NEED, but what they WANT TO OWN. America didn’t achieve the world's highest living standard just by supplying its NEEDS, If that had been the case, we'd still be writing with quill pens, and driving buggies, and dressing our wives in Mother Hubbards. Because we created new wants, new demantls, through SaLEsMmANsHIP, the American people acquired the highest per capita wealth. Because, to satisfy those demands, Americans worked harder, used more ingenuity, gave better service, we became the foremost industrial nation of the world.

The AMERICAN SALESMAN Was Directly Responsible Therefore, whatever the nations’ representatives decide at council tables . . . whatever trade treaties are drawn up . .. whatever territorial allotments are made . .', the Key Max of the whole world’s economic structure is the AMERICAN

+ SALEsMAN. HE must sell the merchandise that

will replace” what the world has destroyed, worn out and discarded; HE must create the desire for the as-yet-unheard-of products of tomorrow; on HIS efforts and ability rests our hope of postwar prosperity. We need an annual income of 140 BiLLioN dollars. The publisher of a well-known magazine recently told the National Manufacturers’ Association that to earn this income we shall need Ten Million Salesmen. That's a big percentage of the Sixty MiLLioN Joss set as our goal. 0.K. Let's do whatever worrying we have to do about government, about labor-management relations, about transportation, about all the other problems besetting us. But let's keep clearly in mind that there is no point in making goods unless we SELL them. Until we have made complete and adequate provisions to MOVE our products, any other annoyances are merely fleabites— because if we don’t SELL what we have to offer we're out of business. Our Fmer ConstpERATION is the job of SALEsmaxsmrr! Out of the welter of doubt ang specula-

tion this one fact shines like a homing beacon.

Get on that beam!

A

Sales Training Imperative During the-war-wedidg't have to-sel“We went” fat and flabby from a rich diet-of -order-taking. Now SaLesmansuip comes back into its own, in a highly competitive market where the real salesman will reap the reward. Maybe yours is a business born of war. Maybe you have had a cinch disposing of your output. Maybe you think that with recoaversion it will still be easy. Oh, bro-o-ther!

If yoy think that, make up your mind NOW

that your product won't be a best seller . . . it'll

be a CoLLecTOR’S ITEM! You, Mr. Big Industrialist, with a horde of representatives. You, Mr. Little Business Man, with two, or four, or a dozen salesmen. You, Mr. Individual—since everybody, regardless of his calling, is a SaLEsmMAN. Just how much time and study have YOU given to this most essential of American occupations? g Well, if you're a manufacturer you have probably taken your salesmen through the plant... shown them how the product is made . . . pointed out its best qualities . . . recited the talking points

‘of the competition and answered those arguments

. given your salesmen kits andgthen sat back to slit envelopes and pull out checks. Periodically you've called the force in and had the salef"manager give ‘em the old fight talk. Now and thea you've fired a man who wasn’t producing— without ever asking yourself whether his failure to produce could possibly have been YOUR fault. What have YOU done to make sure your salesmen know HOW to sell? Do you think it’s enough that they know your products thoroughly? Is it enough for a doctor to know what's in the medical books? Or for a lawyer to bone up in the law library? Isn't it ludicrous that so vital a pursuit as SaLesMANsuIP is so largely left to chance? That salesmen take to the road week after week without ever having had any sound indoctrination in the basic principles of their business? The untrained salesman has no place in postwar America. That's partly because some of our leading industrialists have been doing some very heavy,

to-the-point thinking about SaLes TRAINING. A .

few of them have gone beyond the stage of talking and Doxe SomeTHING ABOUT IT. Foremost among them was Mr. Robert M. Bowes, late president of Bowes “Seal Fast” Corporation, whose tragic and untimely death in June took from American bgsiness one of its most energetic and far-sighted leaders. Mr. Bowes, long an ardent champion of comprehensive, thorough sales training, who in his own organization practiced what he preached, had

been working with Indiana Umiversity School of

Business faculty members and sales executives on plans for a comprehensive sales training course. That program became a reality, and in recognition of Mr. Bowes’ efforts and leadership it was named

~ after him.

‘BOWES “SEAL FAST” CORPORATION, INDIANAPOLIS 7, INDIANA

img in Salesmanship!

The Bowes - Indiana University

"Specialized Sales Training Course

Of great assistance in bringing the course te realization was the Indianapolis Sales Executives Club, of which Mr. Robert M. Bowes was a member. The curriculum for this SALEaMANSETP course, which was developed by members of L U. School of Business faculty, includes such subjects as Principles of Marketing, Business Economics, Business English, Accounting, Psychology, Poise,

“Business Speaking, and Voice Control. Instructors

are qualified educators; training is practieal and down-to-earth. This course was set up after consultation with successful SALESMEN who know what sales guidance should consist of.

man . « « write to Prof. Brooks Smeeton, School ¥

of Business, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, for full particulars.

Idea Has Nation-Wide Application

The Bowes “Seal Fast” Corporation has ne proprietary interest in the specialized sales training idea. Neither has Indiana University nor the National Federation of Sales Executives Clubs. Nothing would please us more than to see such a course given in every institution of higher learning in the United States. We staunchly believe that by turning out better salesmen we not only serve the youth and the business interests of the nation, but we also serve every American citizen. Not just the “vested. interests.” Not just the employer. From an improvement in American sales methods and techniques EVERY AMERICAN benefits. The laborer, the clerk, the dentist, the housewife— EVERYBODY is made more prosperous. Moreover, it is as fine a measure as we can think of to preserve the AMERICAN WAY. We're not waving the flag when we sobérly and reverently say that it's the way in which we believe. Now then. Why don’t YOU establish a similar course in your own community? Indiana Univer sity will gladly give you all the details. There hasn't been one penny of endowment oe subsidy. Indiana University, a progressive, modern institution, quickly recognized its opportunity te be of even greater service to the nation. Here is a call to EvErRY AMERICAN interested in Brerroe Sarzsuansaip. We have developed a program that WORKS. Are you willing, as we were willing, to translate Tak into Action? Then take the ball and RUN with it! Postwar prosperity isn’t the obligation of any small body of Americans, whether in politics or in business. It's up to ALL OF US, Today's SELLING demands today’s SALES TRAINING.

Let's ALL PULL TOGETHER for postwee

prosperity!
