• 2. Minimum Wastage:
• The efforts put in buy the salesmans are highly focused on a
single customer or a small group of customers. As a result of oral,
face-to-face presentation, the message is likely to reach the
customer or customers without distortion and diffusion.
• The light through very powerful, lasts only for a few seconds; on the

economic development.

hazardous on the different sections of the community. Inflation is the upswing
in the economic tide-waves that make rich richer and poor poorer.
