Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Peacock date October 2009 Specialty catalogs are a promotion marketing promotion and distribution business distribution technique commonly employed by direct marketing direct marketers . They describe, graphically and verbally, a limited range of product business products . Specialty catalogs are a good promotion distribution choice for new products. They are also most effective when using a niche strategy . There are several reasons for this It is less risky than a mass distribution strategy. If it is not successful, it can be altered with only moderate expense. It is a stealthy way of testing market acceptance of the product. It doesn t alert the competition, or at least the competition will not perceive it as a threat. Specialty distribution is better able to obtain high margins than mass distribution. This will allow a price skimming strategy, where it is possible to capture the consumer surplus over time. Specialty catalogs allow the marketer to better target prime segments, like the early adopter marketing early adopters and innovators that will be prepared to try a new product. Catalog response is immediate. Product problems will become evident before too many products are shipped. Catalogs are less expensive than sales forces. The average cost per sale is lower than most forms of advertising where low volumes are involved. The printed medium is suitable for new products or any other situation where detailed information needs to be communicated.

Photographs may appear with the entry, or grouped into a separate section of the catalog for mass produced items like postage stamps, the textual description may be considered sufficient.

A coin catalog or coin catalogue is a listing of coin types. Information may include pictures of the obverse and reverse front and back , date and place of minting, translation of inscriptions, description of images, and prices for various grades. Defects may be described. The quality, detail and completeness of the information available about a particular coin varies according to popularity, commonality, and available scholarly research. Because of the huge number of coins in world history, there are no comprehensive catalogs. Professional collectors typically keep many books for identification and assessment. Most commonly, coin catalogs come in one of two forms. Reference works such as A Guide Book of United States Coins , published by Whitman Publishing and more popularly known as the Red Book , and the Standard Catalog of World Coins , published by Krause Publications , give descriptions and approximate prices of coins at many different levels of preservation, or grades. The other form is the auction catalog, where only those specific coins available in the auction are described, with photo plates available for some of the more prominent coins. Coin catalogs are essential when dealing with ancient or foreign coins, where the inscriptions may be obscure and unrecognizably stylized, even for a native speaker. Coin catalogs today are supplemented by Internet sites, some of which have the advantage of being attached to user forums, so that issues such as counterfeiting may be discussed. With the rise of online auctions, it is now possible for collectors to research their coins at commercial sites such as EBay , Heritage Auctions , or Teletrade, as well as myriad collector created sites containing research into diverse collecting specialties.
