Why Advertising? Advertising, frequently known as above the line expenditure, and promotion is a powerful way to differentiate your products and services. Doing business without advertising, it has been said, "is like winking at a person in the dark. You know what you are doing, but no one else does!"1
Using Industry Publications If your industry field is new, try to convince an industry publication to survey it, or order an article about it and your company's leadership position in this field. "Roughly six times as many people read the average article as the average advertisement. Editors communicate better than ad men," said advertising legend David Ogilvy about the power of the press.2 Book of Quotations Borrow great people's brain – cheap!
