Don’t judge a book by its cover unless it’s a magazine
1. In a magazine company the editor’s main concern is the front cover of the magazine. The reason for this is because the front cover is what attracts people’s attention and tell viewers what the magazine is partly about. He/she’s other concern is that the percentages goes up and certainly doesn’t go down.
2. The reason why the front cover is so important is that it attracts the readers and viewers judge the magazine fully on its front cover so if it looks interesting it would be bought.
3. Firstly the way kerrang! An appeal to its whole readership is the colours and images also it includes all types of rock bands on its cover or includes itself in the magazine itself. Reason for this is because kerrang! Appeals to rock loving music fans.
4. I feel that the main sells on the karrang! cover is the effects and the images shown on the cover
5. Cover mounted CD’s effect the sells dramatically the reason for this is because it don’t happened often also that people would love to have a copy of their favourite artist for cheaper then normal .
6. The other elements that draw and keep kerrang! Purchasers are the stickers that are added furthermore if you look inside there would be posters also.
7. What typically features on the cover of the magazine is CD covers the reason for this is to make it more desirable and more reassuring for viewers and its something that would only happen four times a year.
8. The two most important parts of a magazine is the logo and the sweet spot the reason for this is because the sweet spot tells people what would be included in the issue and the logo identifies what type of magazine it is and what magazine they want.
9. The disadvantage of mounted CD is that it can waste a lot of time also its means spending a lot of money at the risk that you may not get it back. Furthermore the distribution of CD could be at a low quality and standard.
10. The two things magazines try to do with is front cover is to try to attract as many people as possible. Also to build the reputation of the magazine and make as much money as the last cover.
