SalesData
More intelligence for better business.
SalesData collects weekly point-of-sales data from over 2,000 retail outlets across Canada, covering an estimated 85% of the Canadian trade print book market. It’s much more than a sales tracking tool: Use it to investigate market trends, identify sales opportunities, plan print runs and book orders, and more. Plus, it's engineered to be affordable.
LibraryData is included with access to SalesData. With SalesData & LibraryData, libraries can examine their performance in context with retail sales and publishers can access a full view of their titles' performance in the Canadian market. And everyone can drive discovery through the production of overall ‘Popular Books’ lists; examine trends by genre, regions, authors; and more.
