Nineteen Electronic Catalogues Posted to AEM Section III over the past month

- by Bruce E. McKinney

Sect-3

This section listed under e-Catalogues on the right side of all AE Monthly pages

Nineteen catalogues have posted since May 28^th to Section III of AE Monthly. This section offers dealers a cost efficient way to distribute their PFD catalogues and catalogue links efficiently. The impact of electronic catalogues does not yet consistently perform better than printed catalogues but the printed catalogue is in decline and its costs are increasing.

Think of these catalogues as having arrived in the mail. You would open each and be glad to be on their mailing list. That these catalogues reach you effortlessly as part of AE Monthly in no way detracts from their effectiveness and appropriateness. They are worth your attention and you never know. Perhaps soon you’ll be posting your own.
