Merchants Service Expert to Speak Here on Retail Quality
L H Busich of the Merchants Service Bureau will address Nelsonville retailers on September 7 at the American Legion building. He argues price seldom drives sales, with quality and usefulness guiding most purchases. He cites national figures on profitability and notes cash collection as a key factor. The program, part of the Retail Merchants Association, will outline strategies to move stores from red ink toward steadier profits. The next meeting follows at Willis Green’s Diamond Street home on September 9. Glenn family reunion set for September 1 at Glen Ebon.
