New Made in USA Program Will Be Launched
A new advertising campaign aimed at
maximizing consumer motivation to buy
“Made in U.S.A.” apparel and home
fashions will be launched this Thanksgiving
Day (November 26) by the Crafted with Pride
in U.S.A. Council.
Designed to build on the success of its
initial celebrity-oriented campaign and
based on the findings of extensive consum
er research, the new campaign created by
Warwick Advertising will be targeted to wo
men in the 25-54 age group, the most in
fluential market segment for purchasing
apparel.
“Our objective to date has been to gener
ate the largest possible consumer awareness
of our“Madein U.S.A." message, and we’ve
accomplished that," says Robert Swift, ex
ecutive director of the Crafted with Pride in
U.S.A. Council. "Now we plan to build on
that success and fine-tune the program by
delivering our message in the most motivat
ing manner possible to the most well-
defined, influential audience."
To that end, the Council is adding daytime
network advertising to its current media mix
of primetime shows and evening news in
order to get its message to both working and
non-working women in the target group.
“The new commercials take a more
empathetic approach to the consumers by
directly addressing their considerations and
concerns when shopping," says Swift. "To
begin with, we have found that most women
regard shopping for clothes as work, and
their primary considerations are color, style,
price, material, quality and fit. But our re
search also shows that when a consumer’s
selection is ‘Made in U.S.A.’ there is a
strong emotional value added to the purch
ase — because it makes the shopper feel
good.
"The new commercials acknowledge the
decisions to be made when shopping and
reinforce the benefit of buying clothes ma
de in the U.S.A. with the message, ‘I feel
better,”' Swift noted.
Since June, 1984, the Crafted with Pride
in U.S.A. Council has conducted ongoing
research — over 25 original studies —
among consumers, retailers and apparel
manufacturers to help guide its advertising
program. Swift notes that the research
proves that consumers do perceive U.S.-
made apparel to offer superior value. Among
the other reasons given by interviewed con
sumers for feeling better about "buying
America": "It keeps the dollars in this coun
try," "It keeps America strong," and "It
helps our workers."

A Tribute to Blood Donors
No badge of service do they wear
They live, as "heroes' 4 unaware.
Those who roll their sleeves to give
Their blood, to help others live.
Who give without return or fee.
That child, so weak & smalt today,
A her's rote may later play.
Or one, a prey to accidents.
By their life’s blood new strength intense.
Their blood may help a surgeon’s knife
To bridge the gap from death to life.
No, none of these will know their names.
Nor see them carved on walls of fame;
But we who toil that man may live,
A hearty, humble 'Thank you"give.
