    • The SA
      • This was strengthened with more young men encouraged to join.
      • The image of the organisation was changed, placing the emphasis on discipline and order rather than violence and intimidation.
    • Bamberg Conference
      • Hitler survived threats to his leadership of the party from Gregor Strasser  and Joseph Gobbels.

      • Branches of the party, known as Gaus, were set up all over Germany and were placed under the control of a Party official knowing as a Gauleiter

      • Gobbels organised Party propaganda and used posters skillfully. He also used Nazi newspapers and meetings to put across the Nazi ideals.

    • Mein Kampf
      • Hitler's book, Mein Kampf, was published in 1925 and, because of the publicity from Hitler's trial, it became a best seller.
    • Agricultural areas
      • From 1928, the Nazis focused much more on winning support in agricultural areas.
        • This was because of the depression, which had affected farming throughout the 1920s and worsened in 1927 with a further slump in food prices.
