Reviews
Smith aims this practical manual at the established businessperson with money to advertise but little idea how to begin. The start-up entrepreneur and the one-person or home-based business will glean some ideas, but those with an established customer base and a somewhat larger business will gain more. Smith ( The Publicity Kit , Wiley, 1991) starts with basic information on planning, budgeting, and research. While this is necessary stuff, the book really comes alive when she tackles questions of actually preparing the ads and buying media space. Concrete tips on the pros and cons of different media types and on dickering with media sales reps bespeak years in the field. The glossary includes slang actually used in advertising. The author also gives more attention to newspapers and outdoor advertising than books aimed at larger companies. In all, any library with a significant small-business clientele should pounce on this title.
