1. Online Magazine Pitch
By Tallulah Preston

2. Introduction My magazine will be aimed at ages 16+
The genre of my magazine will be music, specifically music from the 60’s and 70’s
The magazine will be release monthly
It will be priced at £1.80

3. Magazine Name Ideas
Listed below are some of the magazine name ideas I have come up with:
Sweet Noise
Waves
Strip Deck
Mayhem
Groovy
Boogie
Blast
Crowded
Blitzed
Fink
Flee the Scene

4. Target Audience
My magazine will be aimed at people aged between 15 and 30
There will be no specific gender as the content will appeal to both male and female
Audience will have to be into music and interested in the history of music and how it relates to society, culture and politics

5. Advertisment My magazine will be mainly advertised online
I will be using social media platforms such as FaceBook, Twitter and Instagram
Another way would be through the apple newsstand, this means it will be easily accessible
Social media is a huge outlet for adverts as it spreads the word
Will also make facebook, twitter and Instagram pages or the magazine

6. Unique Selling Point
My magazine isn’t a mainstream magazine as it focuses on the history of music rather than the drama surrounding the music industry
It also focuses on how music influences society and how society can influence music, this is where music from the 60’s will be involved
Another feature will be a music horoscope that will give inspiration on what new different signs will be into this month

7. Price The price of my magazine will be £1.80
This is a good price because as my magazine is aimed at a younger target audience, it will be more convenient for it to be cheap and affordable

8. Sold Where?
You’ll be able to find this magazine in large supermarkets such as: Sainsbury’s, Tesco’s etc. This means it’s easily accessible
There will be a website for the magazine that will include an option to sign up for a bimonthly subscription
Other places will include newsagents and the newsstand on the apple store

9. Main Stories
One main story will feature how music from the 60’s has influenced the world and music today, this will appeal to the audience as it gives an insight into music’s history. I will be talking about influential music artists such as Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Velvet Underground
The rolling stone magazine has inspired me to explore the relation between music and society, this is something I have always been interested in and this was a good opportunity to delve into it
This also means that my magazine can be educational as well as entertaining, therefore hitting two birds with one stone.

10. Publishing
The publisher for my magazine will be a company that publishers other music magazines, these include:
IPC Media- NME
Wenner Media- Rolling Stone
Bauer Media- Kerrang!

11. Design/Flat Plan
This is my flat plan for my magazine, it includes a content page and an editors letter.
This just a rough idea of what the final piece will look like.

12. Success
The magazine will be successful because people will always be interested in music, especially when there is an opportunity to explore new music as well as the history behind it, to find out how music is the way it is today
As music is such a large part of everyone’s life and a massive part of society, this means that a lot of people will take interest in it, especially if it gives the option to learn something new
Also, people are drawn to things that are visually appealing, so this magazine will stand out from the rest
