We call it the "Hot Automatic Shipment Program." When a dealer signs up, he gets merchandise before his competition. What kind of goods? Just the hottest tapes! A dealer specifies the kind of music he sells best: country, pop or easy listening. Then, when the hot releases hit our loading dock, they are shipped immediately, the same day. There is no ordering delay. So the retailer gets the merchandise anywhere from 2 to 5 days before his competition! Sneaky, eh? Does this "Hot/Automatic" plan really work? Well, our present dealers are signing up in a hurry. The ones that have been working under it are like coining money. It's just one of many reasons you should use TDA for your tape and hard- ware supplies. Other reasons: An inventory of over 300,000 tapes. 4 -track, 8 -track, Cassette. Every title duplicated, in stock. Every title. Every. WATS line ordering service. Weekly (or even daily) sales calls for con- stant, personal service. 100% return privilege on all merchandise. All. Same day shipment of all orders, by the fastest possible route. We have shipping facilities for 8 trucks. We are across the street from the Chicago Post Office. And we are minutes away from O'Hare and Midway airports, for fast Air Parcel Post and Air Express service. Sneaky? About as sneaky as a herd of elephants. But far more profitable. Call., Collect.
