The success Kamen & Co. has enjoyed since its establishment many years ago is based upon one fundamental principle: know the industry! We make it our business to always be current on trends, economic influences, state-of-the-art advances and, most importantly, what you as a publishing executive require. We also work diligently to discover what your readers want and expect from your publication. It is the Kamen & Co. philosophy to ensure that the highest standards of quality and professionalism are integrated into every stage of an assignment or project: feasibility analysis, staff and product development, operations planning and management.
Our staff is a highly knowledgeable, creative and caring team. Vastly experienced within the industry, the Kamen & Co. team is capable of meeting every client need.

Confidential consultation and management capabilities allow Kamen & Co. to provide a wide scope of services, designed specifically for each client. Depending upon the client’s need, we can act as independent publishing appraisers for the potential seller or buyer, feasibility analysts, operations planners, brokers, negotiators or management group, or we can participate as an integral part of a specialized consulting team providing customized service.
