What a year! Compiling this year’s list of most-read content was eye-opening. Of all the topics we wrote about: AI, paper shortages, sustainability, and throwbacks to older catalogs, you, our readers consistently gravitated toward two types of content: Catalog and Branding. Brent’s “5 Basic Human Truths,” while it was published a few years ago, clearly resonates as it continues to top the list for readership and get more popular each year. And three of our top blogs came from our “Disruptive Catalogs” series – a resounding success! We like to build on strength, so look for more of its kind next year. We are so grateful for your continued readership, and we’re glad to have you alongside us to enjoy the ride. Onward!
