Publication Plan
Title: LIVE
Positioning Statement: Cool, Modern, Unique. Only LIVE.
Frequency of Publication: Monthly
Price: £3.50
Distribution: Supermarkets, Newsagents, Music shops, Music Venues.
Rationale: The magazine is for the benefit of Indie Music fans; we offer our opinions towards any music and accept fans opinions too. We try to get everything the fans want to know to publish in our magazine and offer the professional opinions of those who love Indie music.
Style: Formal but not so much business type formal. Offers strongly opinionated views towards Indie music and artists/bands. Gives a sophisticated feeling towards its audience and aims to target Indie music fans with its vocabulary and terms. Unique compared to other music magazines in the way that it speaks to its own audience but can still appeal to all audiences.
