Why Hibernate? 1 Have you heard a man asking: "How do you find Business?" ■ This is the answer: "By going after it" ■ MR. MERCHANT ^ Cape May is a summer resort and during the summer is so overcrowded v JC that business is just pushed into your doors by the throng. So much so, ' ■i perhaps, that you have all that yoe end your clerks can do. That's when A u business is good and you advertise. YOU don't find business then- It finds I | - g «■ But when summer is gone and the rush is over, what then? Ds you ^ A decide business is going to be poqr, stop your advertising and hibernate? ; . H . Possibly you will say, "I don't need to advertise. I've been in this town for f-.-'' & ten years and everybody knows me." V? 9 - Probably they do, but did you ever stop to think of the sales you lose _ >H because your fellow competitor advertises, or of bow much mute business . you would do if you did advertise? Everybody may know you and what A ; . ■ ,f business you are in, but everybody needs reminding continually that you f- " have something to sell that they need. Advertising today, especially in newspapers, is the greatest business ■j getter there is. This is acknowledged by men who know; people read ad- A vertiaementa in newspapers- They have been educated to do so. Every H merchant and business man hi Cape May ought to advertise. It will in- ' & A crease their business and build up the city from a summer resort to a year w r™ round town. $ B You remember the story of John Wanamaker. The first day he was in business his receipts were $24.64. He kept the 64 cents and .spent the $24 M. H the next day for advertising. We can't all duplicate that performance be- S ^ cause we cant all be John W ana makers, but according to the best statistics ■ three per cent- of gross sales should be put into advertising. — Results will he sure if we all advertise in proportion to cur business, ^ £ and advertise honestly and give service. A newspaper can bring people to H your store or other place of business, but it can't make people buy your goods. You or your clerics must do that and it depends on the service you ■ give as to how successful your business will be .and what results you will # a derive from your advertising. \ >A * W What is done in the big cities can be done right here in Cape May if ^ jn yon will show the pep, give service and Adevrtise. a ' MAKE BUSINESS GOOD H H Ysu Can Do It Through the STAR AND WAVE Q WE OFFER YOU the services of a trained advertising copy writer free V B of charge.
