Reports document economic, catalog slowdown

Article Abstract:

Two reports on the US catalog industry trend, which were released in Jun 2001, showed that the country's economy is slowing and consumer catalog spending has decreased. Also, the reports provide information on what other catalogers are doing to reach consumers and which areas executives should concentrate on. The reports were from a preview of the Direct Marketing Assn's annual State of the Catalog/Interactive Industry Report, and Abacus' Spring 2001 Catalog Industry Trend Report at the 18th Annual Catalog Conference and Exhibition.
