Introducing a newJAMSco-editor

Abstract

The growth in the reputation and recognition ofJAMSas a top academic journal in the Marketing discipline has been a pleasure for me to watch, and now a responsibility for me to manage as Editor-in-Chief. One of the major consequences of this growth in stature has been an increase in the overall number of manuscript submissions. For calendar year 2018,JAMSreceived a total of 710 new manuscripts. As Editor-in-Chief, I have been solely responsible (as was Rob Palmatier before me) for initially evaluating all of these submissions, as well as managing the flow of all manuscripts (both new and revisions) that are not desk-rejected.
