That's the beauty of newspaper
advertising.
When you've reached a reader
with your message, you've got their
attention and their concentration•
Their complete concentration.
Nobody ever shined their shoes
while they read the news.
Can radio and television advertis-
ing make such a claim?
No way.
Too many times those advertising
vehicles are little more than back-
ground noise•
When people turn to their paper,
they turn there with interest. Which
means that's where your advertising
message needs to be.
With all the choices available, it's
difficult deciding how best to
advertise your business.
But everything becomes a little
simpler when you remember one
rule.
