BACKGROl:ND
Malont"s lift' has been spent in the environment of the
steel industry. His home is located in the heart of the
industry. He has had many opportunities to observe the
various functions of the steel plants in action. He has
talked with a great many of the men who are engaged in
steel work, men in all branches of the industry. As a
consequence of all these observations and contacts, he
has developed a considerable interest in this field.
H e has also been exposed to the intricacies of the building
business as well as having had close acquaintance
with the steel industry.
PRACTICAL TR.\I~ING
In tht' past (""0 years, Malone has been occupied
with the application of general business principles to his
particular intert'sts. He has studied plant construction
and organization, together with many of th~ oth(~ r implications
of factory management. With reference' (0 his
desire to investigatt' the field of outdoor advertising and
the selling of advertising, he has analyze'd the more general
markets of the country and has It'arncd some of the
important techniques of cultivating these marke"ts. Entailed
with this study has come" Salesmanship, Sales
Administration, and Advertising .'\dminislration. There
is little doubt that in the' future, in whatever business he
chooses to enter, \1alone will, with thr application of
principles that he has learned in his training at Babson
Institute be able to eliminate a great deal of wasteful
trial and error work.
One of the great pn ~ requisitl-~ s of the salesman is congeniality.
Others are profound energy and enthusiasm.
These qualities, combined with the ambition to advance
himself, indicate a bright future in the business world for
Malont'.
