Such sudden changes show that
domething has happened which has
thrown the child into a state of
reporting good business during 1931, while others were
falling to make both ends meet
. Without an exception, the firms which were success-
ful in their 1931 business followed out an energetic
■rel well-planned selling campaign, backed up with
plenty of advertising space to put the campaign over.
While their competitors were pulling im their lines,
these few courageous firms went out with added
vigor and brought home the business While some
firms were laying off employes and were certain that
business could not be found, these progressive busi-
ness men stepped in and took the lons share of what
was left. The result will be that when business in
general picks up again, there will be new faces among
- the leaders in various industries, new firms that have
refused to acknowledge that businese is bad and have I
gone out after it with the old-time vigor. -
