Does it cost money to work with CIMS?
Yes, CIMS charges labels to run promotions. There are a lot of office expenses involved with setting up nationwide promotions with CIMS accounts, such as office space, phone, DSL, and fax lines, and the personnel to coordinate these efforts. The cost of our programs covers those expenses. Through a vigorous voting protocol, CIMS has turned down hundreds of thousands of dollars in years past, simply because member stores did not believe that the titles met the standards of a CIMS program.
