Marketing magazine case study
“We commissioned Amy to produce our magazine on the strength of her understanding of our target audience and the proven quality demonstrated by her other work for us. The project ran smoothly and on time due to the clear planning and regular communications from Amy. This ensured project landmarks were met, allowing for the design and print process to follow on schedule. We are delighted with the finished magazine, which has been well-received by our readers who have provided lots of positive feedback!”
Challenge
Create a magazine which genuinely reflected the voice of the client’s profession
Approach
I was asked to project manage the production of a client’s quarterly magazine. As part of the brief, I had to create a detailed page plan, write or co-ordinate each article and liaise with the client’s in-house design team regarding the final artwork and proof-reading stage of the magazine production
Results
The client received
- A 32-page magazine (a special summer, bumper edition)
- Featuring interviews with five high profile organisations with links to the client’s sector
- Within two weeks, the publication had been read over 1,600 times – over 80% of its target readership!
- The magazine was delivered under the estimated budget
