TEMECULA, California - July 20, 2006 - MagazineLaunch.com (http://www.MagazineLaunch.com) has launched another package to help new magazine publishers reach their publication launch goals. The $ 2,495 magazine design package provides print-ready magazine PDF files suitable for commercial magazine printing. In addition, the print-ready magazine PDF files are converted into digital edition format for a complete online electronic version of the magazine.

Without a mock or dummy issue, magazine publishers are often challenged in presenting their magazine design concept to investors and advertisers. The magazine design and digital edition sample issue package provides a visual presentation of the publisher’s pilot issue that can then be utilized to leverage their startup interactions and marketing.

The package provides a checklist of the content items required for the 24 page magazine design. A rate card PDF is also included as a tool to assist publishers in their advertising sales process. Once the layout and design is completed, the 24 page publication is converted and hosted as a digital edition. The digital edition format allows publishers to share their magazine in electronic two-page print layout format online. The digital edition can be launched directly from the publisher’s magazine web site or utilized as a conversion tool to achieve paid magazine subscriptions.

"Publishing Support is excited to offer this affordable design solution to new publishers through MagazineLaunch.com. If you're a small publisher with a limited budget, this is a perfect way to incorporate expert magazine design principles into your first issue or into a mock-up issue that can be shown to potential investors and advertisers." -- Bob Schustedt, President - Publishing Support

The package can also be utilized by organizations that already have periodic content and want to begin branding their newsletters or information into a magazine style format. The standard magazine design options, template, and digital options can be enhanced for an additional fee. Package details and terms are listed on the MagazineLaunch.com website at http://www.magazinelaunch.com/magazine-publishing-first-issue.php.
