Definitions

your promo is going out and gets received amongst thousands of other advertisements for soap, refrigerators, shoes and sealing wax. The public, deluged by this constant flow, tends to briefly glance at the promo and tosses it away. They see it and if it's not sharp enough, and if it doesn't push the right button fast enough, they pass on by. Promo that gets this treatment is called throw-away. (BPL 13 Jul 72R)
