Scope and Content
Advertising of the School Department focused on selling office products to schools and vocational programs. The department reached classroom teachers and students by providing curriculum support materials and advertising in business education trade journals. The company also encouraged students to rent or buy Remington Rand typewriters through special programs. Marketing to schools was an important part of the company's overall advertising strategies since the brand preferences of typists were often developed while they were still in school.
