The Print and Visual Communication Association (PVCA) has extended the deadline for its 2023 Annual Industry Metrics Survey for members and industry until October 18, 2023.
“Because we want to hear from as many of you as we can, we’re giving you one more week to complete the PVCA Annual Industry Metrics Survey,” said the association in a statement. “With the deadline now extended to Wednesday October 18, the survey seeks to understand the current industry landscape for those in the paper, print, mail, publishing, packaging and distribution sectors.
“Hearing from more of you helps achieve greater industry representation, diversity of responses, quality data and robust insights on the present state of the industry.”
The first survey in over a decade is set to provide insights into the state of the industry to ensure the association’s members, investors, government and key stakeholders are making informed decisions.
The 30-minute survey captures salary benchmarks, skills and training levels and shortages, employment demographics, customer group breakdowns, certifications, operational practices, perceived challenges and more.
Produced with members and key industry stakeholders, the survey has been a project the association has been working on over the past ten months, with a comprehensive dive into building data relevant to the visual media sector.
PVCA chief executive officer Kellie Northwood said, “Our members have provided feedback they want to understand best practices for success for their businesses. Without understanding the industry averages we cannot benchmark and build best practice, nor can we develop tools to assist members to set performance targets to improve year-on-year.
“Through this survey we will be able to answer questions about the future trends for our industry. How do we salary benchmark? How should I structure my business for improved profitability? And more. Building a strong understanding of our industry today and the prediction of planned business changes is critical.”
Results will be released across Australia with live events in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane in November 2023 across Ricoh showrooms.
