Advertising - A Necessity Of All Sales, Viola Lois Risch Jun 1926

Advertising - A Necessity Of All Sales, Viola Lois Risch

Bachelors’ Theses

The rapid progress in advertising during the last century has caused many people to accuse this brand of marketing of being new and experimental, and to overlook the part it played in the earlier growth of business. Advertising and the selling of goods have been associated with one another for more than two centuries. With the advent of machinery and the improvement of labor conditions the sudden and voluminous increase in production required a corresponding increase in markets, and so the selling problem--the problem of getting rid of the manufactured goods arose.

The Organization And Management Of The General Office, Erwin J. Stumpf Jun 1926

The Organization And Management Of The General Office, Erwin J. Stumpf

Bachelors’ Theses

The general office is probably the most important of all the elements of a modern business organization. All the policies of the business, whether it be large or small, must be determined by an intelligent examination of the records and accounts which are compiled and kept by the office. The records of the office will disclose complete accountability for the success or failure of the business. The real value of the office seems to have been slighted in the past. Only the larger concerns have dealt with the problem at all. Managers were merely chief clerks who had a thorough …

Standards Of Marketing Efficiency, Walter G. Schallitz Jun 1926

Standards Of Marketing Efficiency, Walter G. Schallitz

Bachelors’ Theses

In all business, profits depend ultimately upon the ability to sell goods and service advantageously. A factory may possess every facility for maximum production at minimum cost, but unless the selling methods are carefully designed to meet the peculiar requirements of the product and of the market, the business cannot be conducted at a profit. The professional man and the business house dealing chiefly in service instead of goods likewise find the basis of profit largely in the ability to get in touch with those who need what they have to offer and in satisfying that need in the most …

Goodwill, Walter Koehler Jun 1926

Goodwill, Walter Koehler

Bachelors’ Theses

The material for "goodwill" was secured from accounting books and periodicals in the Milwaukee Library. Besides this, I have done some practical work by writing to fifty-eight concerns in the United States in order to get their opinion of the subject. Forty-one replies were received, many stating that they were unable to give any information, others had no goodwill account on their books, and a few concerns sent some important points on "goodwill". In addition to this, I went to about thirty-four business places and small factories in Milwaukee. About eight concerns were unable to give me any information, while …

The Economic And Financial Plight Of Germany From 1914 To 1926, Agnes M. Halbach

Bachelors’ Theses

Few of us realize the awful economic and financial plight under which Germany has existed during the last twelve years. What a contrast it is to her condition pre­vious to the World War when her people were busy, prosper­ous, and happy. Vast and phenomenal are the changes that have been brought about in her government, in her economic and financial structures, in her foreign relations, and in her people. Who can estimate the tremendous loss in human life and energy, in national wealth, and in natural resources that the turbulent times have brought upon her.

Capitalism Vs. Socialism, J. Wright Ihlenfeld Jun 1926

Capitalism Vs. Socialism, J. Wright Ihlenfeld

Bachelors’ Theses

There are two forces in society today -- conservatism which tends towards stagnation and the progressive movement, which is forever adapting society to new conditions, producing new organs when new functions have to be performed, substituting new vitalities for spent ones and keeping pace with the dynamic changes of our economic life. The latter is revolutionary in the sense that it sees in the life of society both the capacity for, and the promise of, fundamental change, but anti-revolutionary in the sense that it strives to bring about these changes by a never-ending organic adaptation.
