NEW $AtE$ IDEA$ o o .

Remodeling his office to add space for a slide-viewing room for customers has proved so successful for a Springfield, Oregon, lumber dealer that he has increased his sales of fir plywood and other building materials enough to pay for the room several times over.

The dealer is J. E. Kuykendall, owner of the Square Deal Lumber Co. in Springfield. The slide-viewing room, which Kuykendall calls a "highly successful sales idea," was installed a year ago and has a slide projector, screen, and chairs for customers. The room also has a small librarv of do-it-vourself books and house blueprints.

Kuykendall says, "It is difficult for a customer to visualize what roofing, siding, garage doors or paint will look like on his house if he only has a sample to look at. f have found that if you can get the customer to look at a color slide in our slide-viewing room he

sees a completed job and you have a much better chance of making a sale.

"Besides," says the dealer, "it's much easier to talk to a customer in a relatively quiet place where there aren't so many distractions."

Kuykendall keeps samples of various kinds of fir plywood specialties, such as Texture One-Eleven and overlaid fir plywood, on hand in the room to shorv customers. He reports that the colored slides have been especially helpful in selling Texture One-Eleven, the vertical grooved fir plywood siding which is finding wide acceptance in many parts of the country.

According to Kuykendall, Square Deal Lumber now sells more fir plywood and lumber than any other lumberyard in their county. He took many of the slides himself, and obtained others from building products manufacturers .and lumber and plywood companies.
