The most aggressive salesman-the most thorough and
the most competent, any salesman in fact, is more than
liable to miss a good percentage of prospective custom-
ers in the course of a day’s work. He’s bound to waite
time separating good prospects from bad... calling on
people who can’t be sold. How much more efficient
to break the ground for him-to pave the way for sales
to most likely customers by introducing yourself with
a printed salesman first. Good printing and good ad-
vertising will do that-more than you ever imagined pos-
sible. We offer those features to you-at prices that
will leave plently of room for profits for you. Phone us
today-or drop us a postcard.
