AICC Requesting Data For 2021 Sales Compensation Survey AICC, The Independent Packaging Association, has begun collecting data from independent converters for the 2021 Sales Compensation Survey. This survey, conducted every two years, represents the most compressive data of key sales employees’ salaries and benefits in the U.S. The final report is a tool that can be used to measure a company’s compensation package against independents regionally and nationwide. The survey is managed by an independent research firm, Association Research, Inc., located in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The company collects the confidential data us- ing an online survey. The deadline for submission is Friday, March 19th. AICC encourages all US converter members to partici- pate. The greater the response, the stronger the data. Par- ticipants will receive a complimentary electronic copy of the final report. AICC general members (independent converters) were emailed a link to the survey on February 24th and mailed survey instructions the week of March 1st. Any company that has not received the survey and that wants to participate, can contact Maria Frustaci, Director of Administration, at (703) 836-2422 x 1382 or mfrustaci@ aiccbox.org for instructions.
