PRSRT STD US Postage PAID Permit #1081 Bellmawr, NJ THE PHILADELPHIA REGIONAL Volume #41, Issue #4 December 2014/January 2015 BUSINESS/MARKETING NEWS The longest established business-to-business newspaper for company owners and executives in Philadelphia, Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey & Delaware ... Mailed direct to buyers of business services & products 29 Bala Avenue, Suite 114, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004 © 2014 Advertising/Communications Times $4.00 Founded July, 1976 on the 200th Anniversary of the United States of America Main Line Times Bldg. Is Gone Forever But The Newspaper Lives On For almost 70 years, the building at 311 E. Lancaster Ave., Ardmore, was home to scores of working newspaper personnel. They included professional sales, news, art, circulation and other occupation men and women necessary to produce the leading weekly newspaper covering the Main Line. Now, the former Main Line Times building is gone forever. It was completely demolished this autumn. The current staff has been moved to 110 Ardmore Ave., Ardmore, PA, where the newspaper, and all its divisions, known as Main Line Media, continues to flourish. The former site will be developed as an automobile dealership. This is a sample of the ad that ran elsewhere about Hamas, Al-Qaeda and ISIS terrorist’s organizations. Anti-Terrorist Advertising Rejected by SEPTA Officials Slamming the Hamas, Al-Qaeda and Isis terror organizations via its bus and transit station advertising outlets is a no-no at SEPTA. SEPTA rejected display posters that brought public attention to the message that “Jihad is Jihad.” The refused advertising copy read: Former Main Line Times building has been completely demolished. It was built in 1948. Over the years it had been the home of many publications. Snoopy Hockey Champions “HAMAS IS ISIS” “HAMAS IS AL-QAEDA” “HAMAS IS BOKO HARAM” “HAMAS IS CAIR IN AMERICA” “JIHAD IS JIHAD” Submitted artwork showed a terrorist poised to behead an American. The advertising was permitted Phony Subscription Bills Sent to Inq. Readers It’s bad enough that paid subscriptions to most newspapers is way, way down… But now, here in Philadelphia, the Inquirer and Daily News is not even receiving some subscriber money — intended for them. A “Fraud Alert” has been put out by both the leading dailies here. In full-page house ads, readers have been notified that renewal and new order subscription notices are being mailed that are deceptive. According to the multi-published notices published, “The fraudulent notices arrive in the mail under different company names, such as: Continued on page 3 Philly’s “Metro” Newspaper Purchases “City Paper” Both will Publish Individually Jerry Klein, executive VP of Anne Klein Communications Group, Mt. Laurel, N.J., and president of the Broadcast Pioneers of Phila., 2013-14, and wife Anne display their gold medals and the championship trophy from the 2014 Snoopy Senior World Hockey Tournament. This major annual tournament was started 39 years ago by cartoonist Charles Schulz, creator of "Peanuts." The tournament hosted 68 teams in age brackets ranging from 40+ to 70+. Jerry was the winning goaltender. The Philadelphia five-day-aweek free tabloid newspaper, Metro, 30 S. 15th St., (215-717-2695) has purchased the area’s leading “alternative weekly,” City Paper. “City Paper” had been owned by the Rock family for 18 years. Milton Rock is a local business owner and philanthropist. “Metro” is part of a conglomerate which also publishes a “Metro” in New York, Boston and “across the globe”. There were some layoffs at City Paper, including Nancy Sandusky, the City Paper publisher. The sales director at Metro, Jennifer Clark, was named asso- Jennifer Clark, associate publisher of both Metro and City Paper. ciate publisher of both Metro and City Paper. Both publications will retain their identities and publish separately, from the Metro offices. Continued on page 3 in New York and Washington, D.C. — but not here. According to published reports, SEPTA’s officials rejected the ads. And so, SEPTA is being sued. Litigation by the ad sponsor, the Southern Property Law Center, is pending in Federal Court. The SPL Center’s president also founded another group, “Stop Islamization of America.” SEPTA, according to an area First Amendment expert, will probably lose in count based on the sponsoring group’s First Amendment rights. Major Afro-American Radio Co. Changes Format & Staff Here There were layoffs at Philadelphia radio station HOT 107.9 recently. And their former programming of contemporary urban music has been changed to classic hip-hop jams. Locally, nine people lost their jobs. They include the morning show hosts Laiya St. Clair and Shamara Lever, plus “Good Day Philadelphia’s” familiar face, Quincy Harris. The station is the Philadelphia outlet for Radio One, the largest African-American owned broadcasting company in the U.S. They have 55 stations in the United States. Corporate offices are in Silver Springs, Md.

A perk is something extra. A perk is part of your company’s “culture”; a benefit is simply part of your company’s business plan. The culture of your organization reflects your deepest beliefs about people. Your business plan just reflects your bank account. You have to decide which one you are. Health coverage, along with dental and vision, are minimal benefits, or should be, with every job in the United States in my opinion. A 401K Plan, or something like it with a different name, is also a benefit. Paid sick time; paid family leave and scheduled vacation days are also benefits. And there should be plenty more where they came from. Don’t get me started on employers who fail to provide benefits. They will never get any sympathy from me. The same goes for an employer who thinks that paying $10 an hour for back-breaking work is a wise and productive business decision. That is not what it is; in fact, it is much closer to slave-labor wages. We have self-imposed blind spots about all this in our country. And just because employers can get away with doing it does not make it right. With any luck, though, some of that – maybe even a lot of it – is beginning to change. The Perk Economy Let me give some examples of perks – real perks -- that some very bright, talented and usually creative people get right now: One or two days a month Mike Mallowe when you are encouraged – and paid for doing it – to donate a day or part of a day to a charity like Meals-on-Wheels, preparing them or delivering them. Other companies allow their employees to work in local schools as tutors. The list goes on... Paid for gym memberships, and other forward-thinking health and exercise opportunities are the kinds of perks that will, in the long run, keep your Have available at your business or organization. As a free service to your visitors and personnel, will provide current issues Free. To accept, e-mail to: AdComTimes@aol.com. Let us know number you will make available. www.PhillyBizMedia.com employees working harder and more clear-headed. Office fun days, at ball parks, concerts, amusement parks, museums, movies and many, many other things can define the character of your perks. A perk can also be a catered lunch that no one in the office was expecting; or it might be a Starbucks coffee machine/dispenser rather than the Wal-Mart model. Pilfered office supplies are not perks. Great looking North Face parkas with your company logo discreetly attached are perks. Cars for key employees can be perks. Coordinating a free shuttle service or discount transpasses can be much better perks. More than anything else, the right perks say – “I value you.” If that sounds hokey, just ask yourself, “Do I value my other, monetary assets?” can’t really pay them enough. One of the best ways to attract and keep the top talent is to place them in a work environment that becomes a second home; a place where they choose to be, even when they don’t have to be here. That’s synergy. That’s how it works. Retention vs. Re-training Where is the future of your organization headed? If you have anything to do with advertising, marketing, public relations, media or communication the success or failure of that future will probably be defined by some application of IT and digital knowledge. Throw in a good, effective sales force and you could have a crystal ball sitting in front of you. If you have any hope of attracting and keeping the talent you need, think perks. The pay will always be comparable at good, successful businesses. The truly progressive organizations in Silicon Valley and elsewhere learned about the mobility of talent a generation ago. Their talent can always take a walk. Read what so many of these visionaries have to say about their successes and their cultures and one over-riding impression comes through: I want and need people to work incredibly hard for me; we can’t succeed without that.

THE PHILADELPHIA REGIONAL BUSINESS/MARKETING MONTHLY Page 8 Advertising/Communications Times December 2014/January 2015 Guide to Executive Living Presents DINING OUT Barrels Restaurant In Margate Celebrates 20TH Year ~ Open All Year ~ By Bonnie Squires Barrels Restaurant in Margate, 9TH South Granville Ave., should be considered a major “survivor.” If you know anything about the restaurant scene on Absecon Island, from Brigantine to Longport, and including Northfield, Somers Point, and other inland communities, you realize that for a restaurant to have survived and thrived for twenty years shows the excellent consistency of their servings and staff. The family-owned Barrels, which boasts four generations of family members working there, according to one of the owners, Chris Gualtieri, is open seven days a week, all year round. We were there recently on a busy Saturday night, and the food, as always (we have been there before), was delicious and fresh. The red snapper special ($19.90) which I ordered seemed to have just jumped out of the ocean. The skinny asparagus side dish was tender and delicious as well. My guest, Lillian, wanted breaded veal cutlet ($19.90) the way she prefers it, with only marinara sauce. Our waitress, Katryn, obliged, and she even filled the order for “skinny spaghetti” During the Holidays Visit the New Roxborough Seafood House “A Restaurant & Bar to Enjoy” • • • • • Large selection of Spirits & Craft Beers Large selection of fresh seafood Pricing to please you Super friendly staff All major credit cards Takeout Orders For Lunch or Dinner, or Later Homes/Offices Call 267-437-2524 Gift Certificates Available “Make others Happy, too” Roxborough Seafood House 601 Jamestown Street (at Henry Ave.) Tel.: 267-437-2524 as the side dish. Another guest of mine, Sandy had her eye on the flounder francaise ($19.90) with a side of spinach. And her companion started with scallops ($11) which he shared with two others in our party, as well as the cup of chicken soup with egg squares. It was practically enough for a full meal. He also ordered lobster francaise ($29) and had enough to take home for the next day. The Italian bread is crisp on the outside and soft and fresh on the inside. And the salad choices come with the main dish. Even the small orders of Caesar salad were huge, and one of our party took half of hers home for the next day. It was tough to decide on dessert choices, as everything looked so wonderful. The strawberry shortcake ($4.90 per slice) was light and fluffy. The peanut butter pie (also $4.90 per slice), with its rich chocolate icing and thin layer of chocolate graham cracker crust underneath the peanut-filled center was the star dessert for us. Barrels caters parties and events, either in their restaurant (which seats 75) or at homes and apartment buildings along the shore line. They also deliver meals. Their hot pink menus are left at various condos and apartment buildings in the area. Chris told us that even the threat of casinos closing does not have him down.

Is it worth it for everyone? In my opinion, not necessarily. A degree is not an automatic guarantee of success. There are many, many plumbers, carpenters, salesmen, mechanics, even bartenders and barbers that make excellent livings — without a college degree. In older generations, my generation as an example, success came by having an early start working from ground up and learning a lifetime skill — by doing. Harry Dozer founder and president of a Philadelphia, publicly-owned, major insurance company At a meeting on a Sunday morning, in the kitchen of his Lower Merion home, he explained to me what he wanted my ad agency, American Advertising Services, to write for his Wall Street Journal full pages. He showed me competitor’s ads. “Read them,” he said, “They work.” “Don’t try to be so creative, that to be original you make a square wheel” He then said: “The round wheel works!” I never forgot that. W. Clement Stone Have a mentor To be personal, mentors were my “college professors”. They gave me a masters in ethics and life. They were not academics. They were working, successful entrepreneurs and professionals — willing to pass on their knowledge to an ambitious teenager, then a young man and on to the early owner of a small start-up firm: Me! I remember those mentors, with gratitude. And I do as I can, to pass on to others my continuing experiences gained from “doing”. Mentor Memories Some of my mentors were: Joe Ball Joe Ball, editor , at work in the Home Edition office, Phila. Inquirer, about 1949. Frank Brookhouser a daily columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer, host of one of the earliest Phila. television news shows, and author of several books I was 17-years-old when I met Mr. Brookhouser. I was a copyboy in the newsroom of The Inquirer. He taught me newspaper journalism. I still remember him saying: “Write to communicate. Short sentences are fine. Single word sentences are fine.” Merrill Panett president, Combined Insurance Co. of America In March, 1972, Jack Kelly, brother to Princess Grace of Monaco, and I originated and produced the “American Football and Basketball Conference” the largest event of its kind ever held in the U.S. It was at Notre Dame University. When I visited W. Clement Stone president of a major insurance co., at his Chicago office to invite him to be a member of the Awards Committee, I saw on his desk a sign. It read: “Do It Now.” I took the advice, following it to this day. In fact, I often say to people: “I’m a do-it-now guy.” I am. Laigh M. Cohan He was my wife’s dad. My father-in-law. A brilliant, self-made, highly-successful entrepreneur, he manufactured lamp shades, and was a wise real estate investor and developer. Shortly after our marriage, knowing I had been in my own business only two years, among the advice he gave me re: business transactions were: “Let the other fellow live.” (My interpretation was to be fair, with the other party also benefiting.) I’ve tried to always do this. He also said to me: “To have a happy marriage, have a happy wife.” I’ve now been married 56 years — and have a happy wife…I hope! first editor of TV Guide Magazine At 19 years of age, I was editor of The Inquirer’s employee magazine, “Home Edition.” I wrote the entire 48-page, pocket-size magazine. I had my own small office, a typewriter, desk and a chair. Mr. Panett’s office was across the hall. I worked on the magazine, “Home Edition” on my days off from my job at the City Desk. (I was on two payrolls. News and Promotion Departments.) Mr. Panett taught me how to lay out a small-size magazine. TV Guide and Home Edition were close in size. my dad When I went into business, he said, “Here are three words to remember.” They are: “Persevere. Persevere. Persevere.” I have done so. And this coming year will mark my 59th year enjoying the advertising and marketing firm I originated in 1956. I have…Persevered. George Neil Education Gained General Manager, Phila. Inquirer As editor of “Home Edition”, I had access to almost all personnel at 400 N. Broad St., to interview them, to write about them, their functions, and how things would come together at a major newspaper. In those days, there were five editions per day, Bulldog, Late Bulldog, City Edition, Late City, and Final City. I recall Mr. Neil, in his office getting on the floor, on his knees, spreading out a section of The Inquirer to explain to me “forms”; how 4-pages, 8-pages came together for press. He was the general manager — and a teacher. Gene Vassil former Sales Manager at WFIL radio (about 25 years ago) Gene taught me a saying, that I’ve used — and passed on to others. It is: “Find a way to do business.” I’ve changed it, when trying to help others. My instruction is: “Do not hear the first no… just give another idea…” THE PHILADELPHIA REGIONAL BUSINESS/MARKETING MONTHLY Milton H. Ball (“Mickey”) All of the aforementioned mentors are now deceased. Their success and my success possibly have been attained by remembering and following their lessons. I did not go to college. (I went to night classes at Temple University. No degree.) But, having the opportunity to be led by professionals I met through my workplaces I, received an education. I thank them… ~~~ Postscript: My wife, Sandy, also taught me two important words. They are: “Thank you.” So, to my wife (especially!) and to others, past and future…”Thank you.” ### Joe Ball founded his businesses in 1956 — over 58 years ago.
