The Story of OD and AD and the 2 Stores
OD believed low prices came from cutting expenses and shunned improvements. He kept costs down, bought in bulk, and stocked a simple assortment, but his windows failed to draw attention. AD transformed his shop with color, lighting, frequent displays, and varied, well known merchandise, attracting customers and boosting sales quickly.
OD and AD Use Ads to Boost Store Traffic
OD failed to attract customers with circulars and house to house distribution. AD shifted to newspaper advertising read by thousands, reaching a wider audience, delivering faster citywide circulation, lowering costs per sale and allowing lower prices and better values for customers.
The Rise and Fall of Two Store Advertisers
OD failed with a wholesale clearance due to zero newspaper advertising and low customer turnout, selling at half price to an out of town bargain store. AD, by contrast, advertised truthfully, grew his store, expanded staff, and moved stock quickly, earning widespread recognition and high value offerings.
Advertising Principles From A Store Owner
One pay OD came to AD and asked how he built a fine business and gained many customers. AD replied that an attractive store and desirable merchandise matter, but advertising is essential to tell people about them. They publish news about their service and goods and use newspaper advertising to reach the widest audience quickly.
