Cooperative Spirit
But Tim Britton of Tim Britton Construction Services of Falls Creek, Pa., has discovered a way to fund a third of his $50,000 advertising budget. Britton, whose construction business and showroom revenues topped $1.4 million last year, has for 15 years used cooperative programs with such companies as KraftMaid Cabinetry, Marvin Windows and Doors, The Bilco Co., and GAF Materials Corp.KraftMaid, for example, reimburses half of Britton's radio, print, and Yellow Pages ads mentioning its products.
