The Reader's Digest Association (RDA) publishes the general-interest magazine Reader's Digest, which has 50 editions and is translated into some 20 languages. In addition to publishing its flagship title, RDA operates about 65 branded Web sites and uses its extensive consumer database of more than 130 million names to market books (Reader's Digest Select Editions, how-to guides, cookbooks), special-interest magazines, music, videos, and financial and health products in some 80 countries.

Competitive Landscape for The Reader's Digest Association, Inc.
Demand is driven by advertising and product needs of business customers. The profitability of individual companies is closely linked to effective sales operations. Large companies have scale advantages in buying materials like paper and ink, serving large customers with regional or national needs, and making efficient use of expensive presses. Small companies can compete effectively by offering better local service in a specific product category. Annual revenue per employee averages about $160,000. Digital technology has changed the competitive landscape of the commercial printing market. Prices for digital color pages are falling below offset printing prices and companies that fall behind in the shift to digital printing are at risk, especially in the pre-media portion of printing.
