20、usiness owners or managers together,ask them the best way to pro-mote their organizations, and youll get different answers.That comes as no surprise.When it comes to promoting a business, trying to find the single choice is rarely wise.Youll see business owners and managers try radio advertising.Whe

21、n that doesnt produce the results they want,theyll change to sending direct mail.When that doesnt create a jump in sales,theyll buy TV commercials.When that falls short of their expectations,theyll try a new on-line strategyand it goes on and on.For most companies,the best approach is a mix of diffe

22、rent channels,organized in ways that allow each to build upon the others.The channel that will work best in a given situation depends on a lot of factors,including the company itself,its audience,the message being conveyed,the environment,and many more.Just that radio worked well for a companys last

23、 effort doesnt mean that TV advertising wouldnt be a better choice this time.Or maybe the right channel is direct mail.Theres no simple answer,because there are so many variables.If your audience is broad,then maybe radio or newspaper advertising is the right choice.If youre targeting a carefully de

30、equences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain.Its been a common tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life.But for many disadvantaged minority children,the long-term benefits of getting an education are
