If You Want Action, Don’t Write. Go

I Once Found Myself Conspiring With A British Cabinet Minister As To How We Might Persuade Her Majesty's Treasury To Cough Up More Money For The British Travel Advertising In America. Said He, "why Does Any American In His Senses Spend His Vacation In The Cold Damp Of An English Summer When He Could Equally Well Bask Under Italian Skies? I Can Only Suppose That Your Advertising Is The Answer." Damn Right.

Making The Logo Twice The Size Is Often A Good Thing To Do, Because Most Advertisements Are Deficient In Brand Identification. Showing The Clients' Faces Is Also A Better Stratagem Than It May Sound, Because The Public Is More Interested In Personalities Than In Corporations. Some Clients Can Be Projected As Human Symbols Of Their Own Products.

Nobody Should Be Allowed To Create General Advertising Until He Has Served His Apprenticeship In Direct-response

There Isn’t Any Significant Difference Between The Various Brands Of Whiskey, Or Cigarettes Or Beer. They Are All About The Same. And So Are The Cake Mixes And The Detergents, And The Margarines… The Manufacturer Who Dedicates His Advertising To Building The Most Sharply Defined Personality For His Brand Will Get The Largest Share Of The Market At The Highest Profit.

Consumers Do Not Buy Products. They Buy Product Benefits.
