The merchant who spends—wisely—2 percent of his gross revenues
for advertising is able to sell his goods more cheaply than is the
merchant who spends—equally wisely—but 1 percent of his gross
revenue for advertising.
The percent of gross revenues spent by successful merchants for
advertising varies from one percent to six percent. For limited
periods, while getting established in a new location, adding new lines of
goods, etc., merchants find it profitable—in fact NECESSARY'—
to spend as much as ten and fifteen percent for advertising.
Under normal eonditions the average, ao far as any facts have been
disclosed, would seem to be a little less than three percent. Some
investigators say two percent.
In cities where the expenditure for store advertising is as low, on
an average, as one and a half percent, the door is left, wide open for
successful competition. The merchant who invades such a field
and spends twice or three times that margin for advertising can
ulways win.
The merchant who argues that 4t would be necessary fbr him,
in Increasing his advertising appropriation, to add to the prices of
his goods 4s not in step with the spirit of these times. He does
not understand the economic value of advertising—which, by speed
ing up turnover, makes lower selling prices pqpsible.
Adequate advertising, enrrying real information about goods, is
the guarantee to the customer of protection from high prices and from
undependable merchandise. /
