Greeting Cards & Other Publishing in the US

IBISWorld, February 2013, Pages: 34

Not in the cards: Revenue growth will remain flat as consumers turn to digital alternatives

Greeting Cards & Other Publishing in the US

The increased use of technology will continue to adversely affect the industry. Consumers are increasingly using e-cards, e-mail and social networking sites. Similarly, consumers are switching to online calendars that are easily shared with friends and coworkers. The increasing proliferation of smartphones and tablets will provide a growing share of the population with cheaper and more efficient alternatives to industry products. However, the anticipated boost in demand as disposable income recovers will help to slow the deterioration of industry operations over the coming years.

This industry comprises publishers that primarily publish greeting cards in print or electronic form. Some companies also publish products such as postcards, calendars, coloring books, yearbooks and more. This industry excludes newspaper, magazine, book, directory, map, atlas, database and music publishers.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
