TY - JOUR AU - Ray, Michael L. AB - Two common assumptions about advertising-selling interactions are challenged by a field experiment. The generality of “advertising paves the way for selling” is questioned by results showing selling-before-advertising to be more effective than advertising-before-selling. “Salesmen are born not made” is questioned because the easily learned “labeling” technique markedly increased selling effectiveness and its interaction with advertising.
