ABOUf ADVERTISING—NO. 7
The Cannon That
Modernized Japan
By Herbert Kaufman.
Business is no longer a man to man con
tact in which the merchant and the patron
establish a personal bond, any more than bat
tle is a hand-to-hand grapple, where bone and
muscle and sinew decide tne outcome. Trade
as well as war has changed in its aspect—both
are now fought at long range.
Just as a present day army of heroes would
have no opportunity to display the individual
valor of its members, just so a merchant who
counts upon his personal acquaintanceship for
success is a relic of the past—a business dodo.
Japan changed her policy of exclusion to
foreigners after a fleet of warships battered
down the Satsuma fortifications. The Samu
rai, who had hitherto considered their blades
and bows good enough, discovered that one
cannon was mightier than all the swords in
creation if they could not get near enough to use
them. Japan profited by the lesson. She did
not wait until /«rMer* ramparts were battered to
pieces, but was satisfied with her one experience
and proceeded to modernize her methods.
The merchant who doesn’t advertise is pretty
much in the same {>osition as that in which Japan
stood when her eyes were oj>eneil to the fact that
times heui changed. The long range publicity of a
competitor will as surely destroy your business as the
cannon of the foreigners crumbled the walls of Sat
suma. Unless you take the lesson to heart, unless you
realise the importance of advertising, not only as the
means of extending your business but for defending
it as well, you must be prepared to face the conse
quences of a folly as great as that of a duelist who
expects to survive in a contest in which his adversary
tears a sword twice the length of his own.
Don’t think that it’s too late to tegin because
there are so many stores which have had the advantage
of years of cumulative advertising. The city is grow
ing. It will grow even more next year. It needs
iftereased trading facilities just as it’s hungry for new
neighborhoods.
• Bat it will never again support neighborhood stores.
Newspaj^er advertising has eliminated the strength of
“teing locally prominent, and five cent street car fares
have cut out the advantage of teing "around the
corner" A store five miles away can reach out through
the columns of the daily newspaper and draw your
next door neighter to its aisles, while you sit by and
sec* the people on your own block enticed away without
your being able to retaliate or supply nrw customers
to take their place.
It is not a question of your ability to stand the
cost of advertising but of being able to survive without
it. The thing you have to consider is not only an
extension of your business but holding what you al
ready have.
Advertising is an investment, the cost of which
| is in the same proportipn to its returns as seeds are to
’ the harvest. And it is just as preposterous for you to
, consider publicity as an expense as it would be for a
fanner to hesitate over purchasing a fertilizer if he
discovered that he could profitably increase his crops
, by employing it.
