About Us
Our Mission to You
We are dedicated to bringing the best marketing books to your attention, and then getting them to your desk quickly.
What makes a PMP book unique?
Our books are designed so you can extract a large amount of information in a short period of time. We believe you should learn something every time you open one of our books - whether you have 5 minutes or 2 hours to spend. The books we publish have many charts, tables and margin notes. They are well organized with a good table of contents and a thorough index.
Good information can easily get buried within the pages of a manuscript. We want you to be able to locate important pieces of information quickly when you need it. And finally, a good presentation helps you remember what you've read, that means you look smart when you share the information with others!
It Pays to Order Directly from PMP
How you spend your research dollar does make a difference. When you buy directly from PMP, not only do you get the best service and fastest turnaround times, but also a larger share of your research dollar gets returned to the authors who deserve your support. At PMP we never forget that we depend on YOU for our success.
About Us
We have collectively been in the publishing business for nearly 80 years. From writing and producing business magazines and international newsletters to publishing marketing books, we understand the importance of gathering reliable data, finding new perspectives, and generating actionable ideas.
Founded in 1999, in Ithaca, New York, by Doris Walsh and Jim Madden, PMP is now located in Rochester, New York, still in the same beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York State. Now semi-retired, Doris continues to enjoy sailing with her husband when she's not editing books and talking with new authors, and some that we have known for more than 20 years. When Jim is relaxing, he can be found biking along the Erie Canal trails, kayaking or skiing in the Adirondack Mountains, or mountain biking the dirt trails in the 'hills' of the Finger Lakes state forests. Also an editor of books, Jim works in tandem with Doris on planning, working with authors, identifying key topics and serving customers.
All of our books and marketing materials reflect the fine designs of Anne Kilgore, who shares our philosophy that they should be readily accessible to even the busiest executive. Anne has a wealth of experience in book design, both interiors and covers, and in advertising and marketing. She is an integral and important part of the PMP team.
About You
We are committed to giving you the best possible level of service and want you to be completely satisfied with every publication you purchase from us. If you are not satisfied, we want to hear from you so we can address the problem. We offer a money-back guarantee if any of our publications fail to meet your expectations.
If we do something right, we'd like to hear about that too. Talking with our customers often generates ideas for new books. It also helps us better understand and identify emerging marketing trends and issues affecting you and your work.
