GLGA in collaboration with the other regional printing associations is sponsoring a new 2022 Printing Industry Sales Compensation Study, which investigates common practices, policies, and benefits associated with compensating printing sales representatives. The study is being conducted for the Regional Print Association Network by Rochester Institute of Technology.

Your help is needed to make the new study a success. We encourage all GLGA member companies to complete the survey. The survey will take between 15-30 minutes, and all data will be treated confidentially. All participants will receive a copy of the final report.
