Main Task Ten: Publication Plan

Publication Plan

Title:
Casual Sound

Positioning Statement:
Sound Of The Weekend

Frequency of Publication:
Fortnightly

Price:
£2.20

Distribution:
Supermarkets, High Street music shops, Independent record shops.

Rationale:
The approach of the magazine is to bring unknown Casual bands to the forefront. To offer opinions in a fans point of view not a professional one. The music articles will be what the fans want to know and what bands the readers have let us know about.

Style:
Informal style, using a mix of language from very basic to slightly more technical language in the music sections. We would not shy away from offering strong opinions on up to date events and political views either in the music world. We would use slang where appropriate. Images will take up large areas of pages.
