Why Exclusive Agencies Cost More to Operate A roofing dealer who has an exclusive agency has no competition on his pri vate brand. As a result he can charge a large profit if you’ll buy. In addition, he is usually a long distance from his little manufacturer and must invest more money to keep his stock up Now look at the Certain-teed way. Any responsible dealer can sell Certain-teed. Each dealer carries a small represen tative stock. If he needs more he orders from a nearby Certain-teed warehouse or jobber. It usually takes only a day or two to get it. The result is small investment, small storage cost, light insurance, and na slow-moving articles. Certain-teed Saves You Money That’s why Certain-teed dealers operate at less expense. And it’s also why Certain-teed saves you money because they can afford to sell at close margins and there are enough of them to insure you a fair deal. Now let’s see what you get when you buy Certain-teed Roofing. It’s roofing that has never been known to wear out on the roof. It is guaran teed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to weight. It is weather-proof, fire retarding and spark-proof. There is nothing else you want front roofing. And since you get this highest quality roofing at a saving, its thi logical buy. Any responsible dealer can get Certain teed for you quickly from a nearby Certain-teed warehouse or jobber. He gets it when he wants it and he gets what he wants. He can afford to se*. you at a fair price. Certain-teed Productt Corporation General Office*.
