A man who stops advertising to save money is like a man who stops a clock to save time. True/False?

If this is said by the great Henry Ford, who will I be to dare disagree?

I agree for the most part. But I'd, also, say in a very ow voice (to avoid public scrutiny from the majority vote), that this is a saying by a great industrialist who changed car/automobile production into innovative mass production (the first conveyor belt-based assembly line in a car factory), benefitting from being only the second manufacturer in the US after Ransome Eli Olds, soon the biggest in the US and the one with lowest competition and biggest market share by1913, already.

The likes of Ford and big companies can afford ongoing advertisements efforts and expenditure without turning an eye to ROI vs cost.

I don’t think this saying applies to all businesses all the time! You can't "stop the time", but you can pause your advertisement efforts according to situations. Why? Some advertisement simply entail more cost than any gain or ROI and sometime no gain and no ROI whatsoever. Your advertising strategy may need some tweaking and reconsidering. Would you still follow such saying blindly because Ford said it about his company, product, market and TIME?

this is a great engaging question which holds an answer to mr. minhas's question about why questions asked by females get answered more than questions asked by males.

my answer is that yes i agree with your proposal."true"

It is True becasue the world is like a Global Village and there are alot of products that are competing with each other in such situation Advertisment is a very useful tool to attract more customer and to regain the new and the old ones

true

sure you are true ?

let us admit for one concept the answer for all yes can't be applied , i mean if we say ture then our answer is not correct but no one can't make adv. , but mean while we have a lot of big companies don't make adv. as their products or servises sales thereself . example the tobaco companies / wine / etc.., finally lets be honest with each other , Marketing and Adv. is not essintal for the company but some companies need and others not.

Good question, and yes it's true. 

yes it is.

True, To save money its better to reduce operational cost!

Obviously TRUE

same question was aleady asked by me,,,, little change of wording..... nice one sidra
