Pricing newsagent retail real-estate

mags_counter.JPGACP and Pacific have released new titles which leverage existing successful mastheads. Each has been provided to newsagents in a counter display unit. ACP’s Woman’s Day branded ABC of Cooking and Pacific’s Total Girl Party Book should work well at the counter. I would like to see publishers offer a premium commission for counter space allocation as 25% does not cut it.

To compare to the return from other counter offers we need to achieve a minimum GP of 40%, ideally more.

I see these titles as being different to the counter offers I talk about here. The publishers have packed these two titles as if they expect counter space. The displays I and people at my newsagencies do at the counter we do because we choose to.
