LSC Communications Awarded Multi-Year Publisher Services Agreement with America’s Test Kitchen

LSC Communications (NYSE: LKSD) has signed a multi-year publisher services agreement with America’s Test Kitchen (ATK) to provide print, sourcing, distribution and postal optimization solutions for ATK’s media entities including cookbooks and magazines. ATK has sold more than 10 million cookbooks to date, and has nearly one million subscribers for magazine titles that include Cook’s Illustrated and Cook’s Country, as well as numerous special issues.

Dave Cardona, President of LSC Magazine Sales, commented, “America’s Test Kitchen is a prime example of a magazine publisher that has developed into an iconic multimedia brand. We are thrilled that ATK has selected LSC to leverage our publisher services platform to support their publishing model.”

ATK originated in 1992 with Cook’s Illustrated magazine. The company’s Emmy Award-winning TV show “America’s Test Kitchen” launched in 2001, and ATK has since grown into a rapidly expanding independent media company.

According to ATK’s Chairman and CEO, David Nussbaum, “Streamlining and consolidating our physical media products and distribution channel with LSC enables us to optimize our savings and therefore continue to invest in the creation of new material for our audience that helps strengthen the evolution of our brand.”

Color consistency is kind of our business, and we’ve got a shiny new badge to prove it. Even before the first purchase, your brand meets your customer in a variety of ways: packaging, store signage, mailers and vehicle wraps – all creating a perception of your company, its offerings, and, perhaps most importantly, its quality. If these are all working in harmony, that’s a great representation of your brand, and creates strong awareness. Now imagine each asset, each physical manifestation of your company, being produced in a different facility, with different standards. Each requires different inks, substrates and print processes and variation in each can lead to significant color inconsistencies across the range of materials. We’re not trying to scare you, a small variation here and there is typically within an acceptable margin of error, and likely won’t be noticed by your consumers or prospects.
