Advertising, a rical Reserve. , By Lord llrrverhulnre T‘ V" E The best reserve fund of any business is E "hobo found in the good will of that busi- ness and the goodwill-of a business is, for the most part- dependent upon its advertis- ing. Goodwill connotes the appreciatwn thcpublic have of the business, and the pub lic gauge a business almost entirely upon what they read about it in the daily press. Many boards of directors, instead of ex- tending their advertising, devote their sur- plus profits to “building up a strong reserve fund”- which fundzis generally invested m what again are called “gilt-edge” securit- ies. These same directors are then kept busy formany years afterwards to write down - out of further surplus profits the cost price oftliesfifgilt-edge” securities to falling mar zet values. Should the business have to meet and overcome difficulties, or have to face frenzied competition, and the direct- ors decide that their policy ought 1o he to draw somewhat upon these “reserves”. they find they cannot realize them without serious injury and loss of the confidence of their shareholders in the reputation and p standing of the business; or, in other words serious loss of “good will”. Regular, syste- matic advertising creates a continuous and ever expanding goodwill. People look for the firms advertising as a feature of their morning paper and if, for any reason, it is :rbsxznt.thcy miss it-The goodwill receives 1-1 temporary set lback. .___§Q1In~vv-v-nv. n- .- "l he trouble ivith seasonal advertising is that it tends-to compact the industrys busi ness into too short a space of time, and this revents a profitable handling of the sales. early advertising, on the _ other hand, spreads out the sales and gives the adver- tiser a better chance to care for his orders. Also by pressing constantly against the markets outskirts it often succeeds zn ~p ssing them back, and this enlarges the agertiserlla field. The reader judges the markets for the most part unconsciously, by following some particular firm or firm’: advertising. l l l l LIAGUI OGHOOI.
