Promoting issue #3 of master chef magazine

masterchef-july10.JPGWe are promoting issue #3 of the master chef magazine next to our main newspaper stand, in with our weeklies as well as in our usual food titles section.  If Issue #2 is anything to go off we expect to see another lift in sales. That’s right, issue #2 sold out and achieved a great increase on the launch issue.

The key to success is tactical placement in high traffic areas – hence our placement next to the main newspaper stand.  Next week, we will run the title at the counter for a few days.  Constant movement is essential in chasing impulse business for a title like master chef.

The over the counter feedback on the title is very strong.  People who have purchased the magazine comment positively about it.  This is where master chef is a stand out from title launches in recent years.  I cannot recall such unsolicited and positive comment for a new title.

    Would you believe, had to order more of #2 and sold 6, got only one of #3. Thats what I like to see, send overseas crap by the dozen, don’t worry about the Aussies that sell well

    Didn’t you hear, you have to be in a shopping centre to get a display stand or to have any of the distributors give a stuff about you. If your are in a strip shop forget the stand, better still, don’t even bother sending any posters or promotional material, just undersupply us on magazines instead. They can shove Masterchef magazine where it fits.
