Sinopsis

Effective names sell: how a single word can lift or sink a product.

In this exploration of early 20th‑century advertising, the power of a name is shown through practical examples.

It blends anecdotes with practical guidance to help marketers think ahead about branding, substitutions, and long‑term value.

  • Why pronunciation and memorability matter for consumer recall

Excerpt from Advertising: Its Principles, Practice, and Technique

In this book, I have tried, to the best of ray judgment, to analyze and to put together in systematic form the available facts and elementary principles of advertising. It is hoped that the book may serve as a first textbook for students and as an introductory handbook for business men. I have tried, therefore, to combine the practical and the theoretical aspects of the subject in such a way that the practical experiences of business houses, which are quoted at length, may illustrate the underlying principles, and that the discussion of principles may illuminate the practical results of business.

Problems of advertising policies and plans, and problems in the technique and construction of advertisements, are given at the end of the various chapters. These will increase the usefulness of the book as a text.

This book does not pretend to be a final treatise on the subject. The last word in advertising has by no means been spoken. Scarcely more than a beginning, in a scientific way, has been made. No one realizes more than the writer, after several years of teaching and of practical contact with advertising, the scarcity of thoroughly established facts and principles.

The author takes pleasure in acknowledging his gratitude to the editors and publishers of Printer's Ink, System, Advertising and Selling, and Judicious Advertising for permission to quote extensively from these periodicals.
