Advertising And YOUR Business t What kind of a “picture” does the public get of your business, Mr. Merchant? Is it good? Is it bad? Is it negative in value? When a buyer thinks of buying something in your line, does he also immediately-vconnect your business with it? Those are going to be mighty important questions < in the post-war period. And they are questions which MUST bo answered on the “right” side If your business succeeds. Your home-town paper, The Journal, is " the only “mirror’' this community has. It has over 2,800 adult readers, and Is the ONLY newspaper In the world working for the success of Syracuse and Wawasee. What kind of a picture do those 2,800 people get of your business when they read the home town paper? There may be a few who think “2,800 isn’t so. many,” but we think we are safe in saying that there isn't another business in the community that has that many different local customers, excepting the U. S. postoffice. Nationally, advertising has created some slogans which immediately Identify to the reader the product sold. For instance, 4 “57 Varieties” suggests only one company. Here in Syracuse when you read “Next to the Post Office,” you immediately know the company name. Advertising has over a period of years educated the buyers to look for and reoog- . nize such slogans. The most successful and also those serving the public best, are nationally and locally, those businesses which advertise regularly. Advertising is NOT a cure-all. We do not claim that advertising alone will “make” a business or ' a community. You must have a product to sell the customer does want, or can be made to want, or . you must give a valued service. If you have those things, THEN advertising will help you and the buyer. ■ Syracuse and Wawasee are go- & ing to grow, by leaps, in the near future. To meet the demand, the business firms of the community MUST GROW, or be supplanted by new ones. We have definite plans for the growth of The Journal. Just as soon as it is possible, we hope to go to a twice a week publication—we can see that far ahead. In another few years, a dally paper here may be possible. So, in your plans for post war business, include a job or interest for returning veterans, include an » added responsibility in giving the community a better store, include a permanent and steady place for f advertising in your home paper —The Journal. To further carry out the Idea of a home paper being the community “mirror,” in the case of every local citizen, it is The Journal which announces his, or her birth. Perhaps you next hear of this citizen in high school, on the ‘“team,” in the columns of The Journal. You read about the graduation exercises, going away to college—or to war—coming back, getting married: the birth of the first child; this mythical citizens “business,” whether it be lawyer, merchant, preacher, etc.; you may read of him making a speech, or selling war bonds, or helping in the Red Cross; then, he may be elected a Senator, or go to serve his country in some other high office; the grandchildren are duly noted; and then, finally, an obituary. It has happened to thousands of Syracusans in some 9 such way. Yes, The Journal IS the community mirror! We have seen many small businesses start. Some of them have succeeded, but most of them fail. It takes some, or most, of the following to succeed: First, you must have a business that is needed, or wanted; you must render good service, constantly; you must meet competition from the price angle; you must “tell the public” what you have and what you do. Courage, aggressiveness, much hard work and sweat, and honesty are necessary, also. We’re always ready to help you BUILD your business —and Syracuse and Wawasee! Call-on us.
