12 EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY, APRIL, 1916 "Signs of the Times" WE are providing dealers this month with some card-copy along the same lines as the copy printed in the March number of the Phonograph Monthly for the purpose of boosting St. Patrick's Day Sales. Among other advertising suggestions, there are three bearing on the Easter season. If you learned something of the value of such copy, when used through window cards or incorporated into newspaper ads, by following the suggestions that we made last month, we do not feel that it is at all necessary to urge you to make use of the copy for April. If you did not find it convenient to use the St. Patrick's Day copy, we can only ask you to give the suggestions offered this month a fair trial. We are sure that you will find that your business will be greatly stimulated by them. In addition to the Easter advertising suggestions, we append a list of sacred records that are appropriate to the Easter season.

Festyn Davies 1598 MAKE COMPLAINTS AN ASSET Did you ever stop to consider that the complaints you receive from your customers may be made valuable assets in your business? "Service" is the keynote of successful business to-day and the dealer who provides service wins patronage. A complaint invites service by providing the dealer an opportunity to show his willing ness to serve. And by giving him a chance to take a friendly interest in the welfare of his customer, an interest that will win him the friendship and the loyalty of the one who came in to complain. Try to avoid causes for complaints but, when they are made, be grateful for them. Welcome them because they give you an opportunity to emphasize your willingness to provide service for your patrons.
