Hammond Organ Co. Holds
Successful Monthly Meetings
The Hammond Organ Co., Chicago,
111., started a new series of monthly
meetings recently to instruct both new
and experienced retail organ salesmen.
The first three day sessions proved to
be a tremendous success. More than
40 sales people from all over the coun-
try were in attendance.
The purpose of these meetings is to
provide each retail salesman with good,
practical information to help him in-
crease his sales performance on Ham-
mond Organs. To reach this goal, the
new program offers very comprehen-
sive information on the selling, demon-
strating, servicing and promoting of
each model of the Hammond Organ.
Some new Hammond dealers and
salesmen attended, as well as several
men who had been selling Hammond
Organs for years. Everyone praised the
meeting highly and even the "old
timers" were quick to remark they had
received many new ideas.
