Publication plan




Title - These are a few ideas for my masthead, i have chosen my title name 'The Lyric'. I have used paint.net to design my mastheads.  I am still experimenting with some more but the second one down is my favourite so far because it looks handwriten like a lyric. This makes it original and good for the moden magazine.

positing statement/selling line - My selling line will be catchy and original. Somthing thats got something to do with my Niche market and the style of my magazine. It will be positioned above the masthead and the same house style as the masthead.

Frequency of publication - Personally i think monthly magazines are more successful than other music magazines that sell theirs every week for example. I think its because every week you struggle to add more things to a magazine than if you do it monthly. There will be more information and topics to talk about.

Price - I will be selling my magazine at about £3.00 a issue. Monthly magazines seem to sell theirs at around the same price keeping to the codes and conventions

Distribution-

Rationale- I will give my audience interviews exclusives on my magazine, i will also be going into depth into my bands and artisit on my magazine and this will give the audience an insight into the bands world. I will also be doing competitions on my magazines for the audience members to win money or a trip. I will give them information on gig dates, when the next gig is coming near you and also the bands next tour, so the audience has a heads up on what to come.

Style - My target audience will be a Niche market and aimed at teenagers aged between 15-18. The magazine is a acoustic/indie magazine showing solo artisit for example Ellie Goulding/Michael Buble and also it will feature indie bands like Mumford and Sons/Snow Patrol.
