Seeks Participation from Publishers, Retailers, Sales Reps. and Associated Companies; Incentive for First 100 Companies to Participate
WASHINGTON, DC – December 18, 2017 – The Greeting Card Association (GCA) today announced the launch of its annual industry survey, in which it asks for input from four groups central to the industry: greeting card publishers, retailers, sales representatives and associated companies such as printers and paper companies.
“As the voice of the industry, the GCA is gathering data to provide insights from and to the industry’s key stakeholders,” said Peter Doherty, CAE, executive director, GCA. Companies do not need to be GCA members to participate.
Developed and conducted by Cleveland’s MPI Group (www.mpi-group.com), the survey’s sections are designed specifically for members of each of these four groups and is available at: https://research.mpi-group.com/jfe/form/SV_d0De4TpzRZf5ABT. Most respondents will be able to complete the survey in 20 minutes (or fewer). All respondents who complete the survey will receive the results and an analysis. The first 100 respondents to complete the survey will be selected by MPI Group. They will receive a $10 Amazon gift card via the contact information provided in the survey. The deadline for completing the survey is January 31, 2018.
