Curtis Woodwork Advertising lncreased for 1949

Curtis Companies Tncorporated, manufacturers of Curtis Woodwork and the well-known Silentite Window line, has announced a greatly enlarged advertising and sales promotion campaign for 1949.

Curtis was one of the first building material manufacturers to launch into national advertising, starting back in 1916, rvhen the advertising of building products on a national scale was pretty much of an innovation. With the exception of a few depression years, Curtis Woodwork has been advertised nationally since that time.

In commenting on the enlarged Curtis campaign for Ig49, H. H. Hobart, Vice President in charge of sales and advertising, stated:

"We feel 1949 will be a year'of selling rather than ordertaking. We are gearing our sales organization along that line. Curtis advertising is being increased in all channels -consumer, contractor, architect and dealer. We are using larger space in the big consumer magazines in the home field and our schedule will cover more months than in any year since before the war. We are reaching new fields also by using magazines going into the small town and farm markets. Our men will be equipped with a sales portfolio which will illustrate our 1949 campaign and explain to our dealers how they may use Curtis advertising to their own direct benefit."
