It has been another year of increasing challenges and opportunities for book publishing executives as manufacturing and distribution costs escalate, and the media landscape shifts and shimmies before our very eyes. As costs continue their steep incline and new opportunities on the digital horizon demand more and more attention, many of you have been increasingly tasked with wearing additional hats—whether you’re the president, the head of operations or manufacturing, the production director, marketing director, or just about any other position. While publishing has never been a cakewalk (for most, anyway), it seems that now is a time when you certainly need to earn your keep. And, many of you may wonder—now, more than ever—“Should I be paid more for my hard work?” Maybe you’re wondering, “Am I paying my best production manager a competitive salary (in this region of the country) for all this work?” or “What kind of raises are the norm in the industry right now?”
Book Business’ second annual Book Industry Salary Guide, conducted by independent research organization Readex Research, will help you find answers to those questions and many more.
