Publication plan of my magazine

Publication plan

Title: J u S T R o C K
Positioning statement: All RoCK, JuST RoCk.
Frequency of publication: Monthly
Price: £3.50
Distribution: Newsagents, Supermarkets, DVD and CD retail stores, and Music stores (Such as DAWSONS)
Rationale: The main aim of this magazine is to introduce people to new bands, give them information on their current favourite bands and allow them to win prizes to see such bands. The magazine will only feature Rock and it’s closely linked subgenres, which will enable people to move onto a more wider range of styles of rock.
Style: The magazine will be informal and friendly, whilst it appeals to a younger audience. The vocabulary will be simple and easy to understand, using medium sized paragraphs so it avoids looking like an educational piece of literature. There will be plenty of images on each page.
