If your candy is good, people will buy it, and you will have no trouble in getting all the stores to buy all you can make. One woman started on this small scale and owns a large candy factory to-day.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO OWN A SHIRT FACTORY?
Every man has trouble buying a shirt that will fit him. One wise girl knew this and turned it into real profit.
She went to a local dry-goods store and secured samples of thirty or forty different kinds of shirt material. She made an arrangement with the store to allow her 15 per cent discount on everything she bought. Next she visited the various offices, stores, etc., and secured orders for “custom-made” shirts. She displayed her beautiful line of patterns, and also a shirt all made up, showing the quality of workmanship, etc. Next, she took the man’s measurements and he selected the pattern. She would solicit orders one day per week and make shirts five days per week. In a short time she was receiving mail orders and telephone orders. Every man in town wanted her to make his shirts. Within a few weeks she had employed six girls to help make shirts. Then she bought her material direct from the factory and received bottom prices. To-day she owns a custom-made shirt factory. To-day dozens of girls work for this little genius. Each girl has one special thing to do.
CAN YOU MAKE NECKTIES?
To convince yourself of the tremendous profit in making and selling neckties, just get the price of a yard of necktie silk, and see how many dollar neckties you can make out of it.
Did you ever examine a necktie? It is the simplest thing in the world to make.
Buy enough silk to make about twelve patterns. Use these for samples to show business men. They will sell like hot cakes. You can make 50 cents per tie profit. As your business grows, hire girls to make ties, and employ pretty, neat girls to take orders.
