The Church Music Publishers Association Endorses J.W. Pepper & Son, Inc. as the Print on Demand Music Supplier for Its Publisher Members

Paoli, PA, January 18, 2007 --(PR.com)-- J.W. Pepper’s print on demand service enables music retailers to provide print music that otherwise may not have been available. Older and lower turn publications are often economically difficult for publishers to keep in print through traditional means. Pepper’s print on demand service allows retailers to consummate the sale with a customer by placing orders whereby the music is literally printed as the retailer demands it. Turn around time is quick and print quality is excellent.

According to Glenn Burtch, Vice President of Research and Development, Pepper’s print on demand process “delivers a viable business opportunity for publishers to tap existing resources in their catalog, while offering exceptional service to both the music retailer, and by extension to musicians around the globe.” In essence, the process of producing the music as it is ordered “enables publishers to keep music available for purchase that might normally go out of print as it becomes economically challenging to keep inventory on hand.” Further, “We are using the internet to facilitate the ability for music stores to find and order titles using our printondemandmusic.com web site.”
