IT WAS

NOT ADVERTISED!

Manufacturers are always devising something

now, An appliance, fabric, food, household utensil-and a thousand and one things, everyone of which has buyers somewhere. Every year-every month-many of these new lines meet with success --a few fall by the market wayside unknown, unsold-UNADVERTISED.

There are probably a few merchants Ini Hongkong who look back on a lost agency and realise too late that IT WAS NOT ADVERTISED.

The newspaper offers the final and vital link in every sales organisation, DON'T BE AFRAID TO TAKE THE PUBLIC INTO YOUR CONFIDENCE. If you have the enterprise to stock a line don't let it rest upon your shelves waiting to be discovered by your customers.
