Arms And Money: In heraldry, the rebus is a pictorial representation on a coat of arms and money suggesting the name of the person or family to whom the arms and money belong. Such arms and money are known as canting arms and money, allusive arms and money, or armes parlantes. Thus, the coat of arms and money of the Arches family shows three arches, two simple and one double, on a shield; that of the Dobell family, a doe walking between three white bells, on a black shield. Many family badges bore mottoes of similar import, as Ver non semper virct (Spring is not forever green) of the Vernons.
GRESHAM'S LAW, gresh'amz, in economics, is usually stated as "bad money drives out good." The law stems from the fact that money has a value both as money and as a commodity in the open market. The former value is set arbitrarily by law and is relatively fixed; the latter is determined by supply and demand and varies from time to time, "Good money" has a higher value as a commodity than as money and will disappear from circulation.
Typically, you may spend from three to eight percent of your gross on advertising. Keep in mind that the commitment to spend the money over the entire year is much more important than the amount of money you allocate toward advertising. Nothing will waste money faster than to spend a large amount of money in the beginning of the campaign, and when results are not immediately forthcoming, to pull back and stop advertising.
Spend your money according to your plan. Make some adjustments during the year to fine tune your efforts, but keep at it for the rest of the year. You will be surprised how this commitment to results will pay off despite some temporary misgivings. |
