(Q) Should [
257] accept the contract sent him by Sailors
from Showers, as it is, or ask for the revisions as to length
of time, renewal, and other details as shown in the copy of
letter attached to the contract that is in the upper left
hand drawer in his desk, in large room, 24th floor, 101 W.
31st St., Pereles office - the desk has [
257]'s name on it.
(A) Accept the contract as it is. A letter with provisions
providing that [
257] demonstrates by his abilities as
salesman and as a producer of business for the extension,
renewal or the like, may be very well; but we would accept
the contract as it is.
Let this be as [
257]'s presenting to Showers those abilities
that have been given as word of mouth. For if there is the
producing of the business with the least amount of
disturbance with character of accounts, with the least
shaving of prices as possible save in specific cases, then
there may be expected renewal, etc. But unless [
257] can
show Showers he ([
257]) is a PRODUCER for SHOWERS' profit,
there is little to be expected in the way of extension or
renewal or any other of the details as indicated. However,
if [
257] is capable (and he is!) of showing that he CAN
produce, then he will be sought after. Not how close can
Showers figure, but how much can [
257] get from the customer
for self and Showers, see? Let that be the attitude,
throughout; and we will find this will make for an
association and a connection worth while.
(Q) Will it be necessary for [
257] to go out there again?
(A) If it is accepted in this manner, NOT necessary.
(Q) Any other advice?
(A) Much might be said, but this is as sought; this adhere
to.
We are through for the present.
