Starting up a Magazine
When
you are running a new magazine one of the first things you need to decided
is how often your magazine will be published. This will be largely determined
by which category you think your publication belongs to. Literary, academic,
current events, or interest. You will also have to decide what to do in-house
and what should be contacted out. If you are starting out small be prepared
do many roles yourself, such as:
Editor
Writer
Photographer
Book Keeper
Human Resources Manager
Marketing Manager
Sales Rep
and sometimes even distributer
There are a number of problems you can run into when starting a magazine,
and many of these have brought down many publications that really could
have taken off. However most of these issues could have been avoided if
proper planning had been undertaken from the beginning. If you are consider
starting your own magazine then get the right advise from the outset.
The more informed you are, the more likely you are to succeed.
