Business Marketing Advertising

“Dad” Howe is dead. In fact, he has been dead several years, but in his territory he is still remembered ? with love and respect.
“Dad” always got the best room in the hotel. The writer always seemed to bring him the tenderest steak or the most generous helping of chicken. The clerks in the stores he visited took pride in telling him they needed more of his line.
The buyers said “Dad” could come as often and stay as long as he liked. Saturday mornings when he visited the jobbers, everybody from the boys on the shipping platform to the president in the private office had a good word to say to “Dad.”
Some people wondered when “Dad” ever found time to sell. But his sales record always seemed to prove that he was the best salesman the company ever had out of San Antonio. In any town in southwestern Texas “Dad” could walk into the bank and get a check cashed without formalities. People believed in him.
“Dad” once said, “I spend half my time making friends ? you never know when you’ll need them.” “Dad” did things for people ? little things that most of us forget to do, but those are the things people appreciate and remember.
Even in this commercial age friends are our greatest asset ? provided they are the right sort of “folks.” Dividends from investments in friendship are not governed by stock market fluctuations ? they are often highest when other investments are lowest.

For almost a year a man in Milwaukee by the name of Kropf thought he couldn’t walk. So he didn’t try to walk. In time people came to talk about him as a cripple, and he thought he was a cripple.

Then Coue came to Chicago. He told Kropf that there was nothing the matter with him. He told him that he could walk if he wanted to. He told him this several times until Kropf believed it and stood up and
walked.

Kropf wasn’t a cripple at all ? he only thought he was.

You know the type ? he is the fellow you met in the Pullman compartment who was all excited about the dividends that the Ford Motor Company paid last year, and “wished” that he was Henry.

He is the fellow who reads about Babe Ruth’s seventy-seventh “homer” and “wishes” he was Ruth. He hears about the president of his company taking a month’s vacation in Florida, and “wishes” he was the president. He reads about the wonderful climate in Bermuda, and “wishes” he were there.
