In this post, I will mainly be talking about my main plan for my magazine since the last few weeks I've been researching and also been looking at other magazines, so I have an ideea of how I want mines to look like.
Name Of Magazine
I have decided to call my magazine "Smooth". I believe that it will go with the type of genre that my magazine will be associated with.
Target Audience
My target audience would be both males and females from the age of 18 to 28. This is because I believe that they would be at the main age where they would like to have collections of items that they like or would be able to afford the magazines, which would lead them to being loyal customers to the magazine.
Weekly/ Month And Cost
This magazine will be a monthly magazine that will be around £3.95. This is because it's the average price for these types of magazines and other types of magazine that are the same types of magazines such as mine are about the same price
Association With Magazine
This will associate with the chosen genre because the type of people that would want to have a monthly update of all the issues going on within the music industry. This is because a weekly one might be difficult to constantly get a lot of deep information that the audience would like. So by having it as a monthly magazine, it would give the stories and the magazine enough time to develop properly and to talk with enough sources and organise things.
Similar Products
There are a number of magazines that could be slightly similar to the idea that I had for my magazine, such as pictures like "Vibe" and "XXL" sinsce they seem to have the more famous R&B and Hip Hop arrtists and stories. These two magazines are of two very specific genres, for example it would be very rare for them to promote a rock bands such as The Beatles.
What Makes My Magazine Different
To make my magazine stand out from other R&B magazines, I will do exclusive interviews with new artists each month but still have the latest gossip for those that like that kind of thing. I will also include some sections dedicated for the female type of fashion side which would encourage more female readers to buy the magazine.
Think about how your cover is different from those other magazines on the market, classy, less 'in your face' than others. Think of products that look similar, clash etc.
