Wrigley’s story
On a train journey to California a friend asked Mr. Wrigley why, with
the lions share of the market*, he continued to advertise his
chewing gum.
“How fast do you think this train is going?” asked Wrigley.
“I would say about ninety miles an hour.” the friend replied.
“Well then said Wrigley, do you suggest we unhitch the engine?”
The truth is, no matter how good you are, if you do not advertise
or stop advertising, your product will be forgotten amongst a
barrage of competition.
