An Important Message To Sherwin-Williams Representatives and Managers --
19^1 NATIONAL ADVERTISING, STRONGLY ENDORSED
BY NATION-WIDE DEALER SURVEY,
CONTINUES THROUGH FALL MONTHS
COLORFUL NATIONAL ADVERTISING will continue to tell and sell Sherwin-Williams products through the fall months to Consumers everywhere1 There's no let-upl
A NATION-WIDE SURVEY among SherwinWilliams Dealers and Branch Stores this spring showed that our national advertising has really clicked with the trade everywhere. Not for years have we had such enthusiastic endorsement of our program -- both the ads themselves and the media -- magazines and Sunday newspaper color supplements -- that we are using.
EXCELLENT POTENTIAL SALES INCREASES are in every town and city. You are out to get a richer slice of those paint sales! Through sales manship, of course. The Fall national advertising is salesmanship in printl To pay off, it must be teamed up with your own "high-octane" salesmanship.
ADVANCE PROOFS of several ads in the Fall 19^1 series are attached. The Style Guide ads were specifically designed to follow
through on the assignment of letting more and
more people know they can get home decorating ideas the easy way -- that's the Style Guide and Style Guide Companion way!
THE SUPER KEM-TONB, KEM-TQNE, KEMGIO ADVERTISEMENTS (proofs also attached) continue with the colorful format which achieved readership and sales records for the Spring and Summer adver tising.

PLEASE READ the attached proofs so you are familiar with the messages going into your region and your territories.
DON'T LET THE DESIGNATION "NATIONAL ADVERTISING" CATCH. YOU OFF BASE.' It is called national advertising because it appears in pub lications and newspapers which have wide circu lation.
SO FAR AS YOU ARE CONCERNED IT IS LOCAL ADVERTISING because it goes into thousands and thousands of homes in your selling area. It is making pre-selling calls at hones and business establishments -- yes, at many more of them than you could possibly reach if you did noting but push doorbells.
THIS ADVERTISING WORKS FOR YOU PERSONALLY -- just as though you hired a platoon of assistants to go out and make introductory calls for you. And that's the way it works for your Dealers, too.
HERE'S WHAT YPU CAN DO ABOUT IT.' 1. You can read.this letter, look over
the schedule and proofs and say to yourself "Great Stuff" -- then "file" the whole works. If you do this, YOU, YOUR DEALERS and THE COMPANY will get only partial results from the investment of several hundred thousand dollars. 2. Or -- you can INCREASE YOUR SALES by
(A) Inserting the printed advertising schedule in your price list book and refer to it on every call.

(B) Garry the ad proofs with you and SKCW THEM to your dealers.
(C) Explain to dealers how this adver tising is -working in their communities for them. Explain how important it is (in terms of their cash-register) that they know when the advertising is appearing. Display the products in the window and in the store. Use the banners and the display cards furnished. tie In with newspaper ads and radio spots. Branch t&nagers should buy a copy of the magazines as they come out and place them in the window with an "As Advertised In" card. AKD T7HAT IS VERY IMPORTANT, for the Dealer's sales staff to know the major facts about the products1
. When the customer comes in he should.be given product information.
. And that is where the Style Guide and Companion help serve the customer properly and COMPLETE THE SALE! FOR YODR OWN POCKETBOOK'S SAKE, make
this advertising pay off for you by using it as a sales tooll
