How to Increase
the Sales of a Piano Store
The HARDMAN
Five-Foot Grand
The PLAYOTONE
It is very easy to advise an enterprising Piano Dealer to
handle a line the people want, if he wants to build up his
business.
But, it is quite another thing to tell him specifically and by
name—exactly what the Public does want.
But we know!—and we are going to tell—because we are
very proud of the facts—and insofar as possible we want the
best Piano Dealer in every town in the United States to profit
by them.
So, skipping all general praise of the Hardman Line as
the most complete and satisfactory line of high grade pianos
and player pianos—we launch forth with brief character
sketches of the three best money-makers in pianodom today:
The HARDMAN Five-Foot Grand
Our quadrupled Grand output attests the salability of this
remarkable little instrument. With a rich tone of Metropolitan
Opera reputation, coupled with its inherent Hardman durability
and beautiful lines, it deserves every bit of its popularity. Every
Hardman Five-Foot Grand establishes a permanent reputation for
you as a "Quality Dealer."
The PLAYOTONE
You are not realizing the full profit-making possibilities of a
player-piano department unless you sell the Playotone. This is
more than a question of moderate price plus high class performance.
The Playotone makes satisfied customers by removing the main
cause of most player-piano dissatisfaction*—frequent repairs; it
is unit built—player and piano—under one roof—by skilled crafts-
men, thus achieving greater dependability and finer responsiveness.
The HARRINGTON
Small Grand
The HARRINGTON Small Grand
The finest praise that can be given the Harrington is the
frequency with which it is mistaken for a much costlier piano. How-
ever, you will readily understand why the Harrington is often
so complimented when you know that it is made by master crafts-
men, under Hardman supervision—thus assuring artistic perform-
ance and beautiful tone. You will find the Harrington Small Grand
a great money maker by virtue of season-in-and-season-out salabil-
ity to people who want a high grade instrument at a moderate
price.
Write today for full information about these three great
business boosters, and the other facts about the distinguished
Hardman Line, comprising the Hardman, Harrington and Hen-
sel Pianos; Autotone, the perfect player-piano; the Playotone,
and the Hardman Welte Mignon Reproducing Piano and
Soloelle.
