For my magazine I’ve decided to have a price aimed at the lower bands of the social grade system, working class and unemployed. I’ve decided this because my magazine will be aimed mainly at teenagers (13-18) who are likely to be in full time education and unemployed, or if they do have a job it’s likely to be a low paying job, so I need to make it affordable to them. I’ve decided on a price of £2.50. Also, looking at competing magazines I think this is a fair price and may make it more desirable as it costs less than some other magazines.
I’ve decided my magazine will be published bi-weekly because a monthly edition would have too long a gap between each issue and not be able to cover the latest news as quickly as I would like and a weekly issue may be seen as too expensive per week by readers and people would decide not to buy it.
