German DM sees solid growth
Article Abstract:
The direct marketing (DM) industry in Germany has grown from $15 billion in 1996 to an estimated $26 billion in 1999, according to figures made public at the annual German DM show. Various issues were tackled during the show, including the rising concern over a stiffer data protection law that is likely to be passed in 2000 as well as a conflict about alleged penetration by the United States' Direct Marketing Association into Germany and other European countries.
