News And Updates
Being a serial entrepreneur and a business advisor that loves magazines, I currently work for a small (20K circulation) business publication for new entrepreneurs in Finland. Â I’m also doing my best to help magazines succeed by finding advertisers for smaller publications and helping to extend and adjust the more traditional business model to succeed in the online space. You can read more about the backgrounds of what I’m working on, in here.
To celebrate our 500 member milestone in Magazine Publishing Group, here is special offer from us to all of our Group members.
The basic idea of our service www.magazineadnetwork.com (also ratecards.net) is simple. Â In the same way that a shopping mall is a more attractive place for shopping with the variety of different types of stores in one location, www.magazineadnetwork.com will attract many types of advertisers because of the variety of publications and service providers they can find and contact via one centralized service to make their research easier.
Not only is the directory, campaign assistant and contact features free (for now and in the future), so are the listings to service providers as well.
You can see how www.magazineadnetwork.com now comes up in Google by searching ‘advertising rate cards’ or similar searches (regional results may vary). The service is currently in public Beta and all feedback and suggestions are welcome to help develop the service. Also, we are always open for partnerships and getting more people to join our efforts.
To help push things forward to the next level, www.magazineadnetwork.com as an sponsor for Magazine Publishing Group, we are making this special offer to all of our Group Members:
1. For publishers on www.magazineadnetwork.com, we offer $1000 worth of free advertising credit in separate ad slots within our service to get extra visibility for your publication, among potential advertisers making searches on the magazineadnetwork.com service.
2. For ad service providers on www.magazineadnetwork.com, we offer $500 worth of free advertising credit in separate ad slots within our site to get extra visibility you’re your portfolio, among potential advertisers and publishers using the service.
To qualify for this credit, as a publisher you need to have your publisher details and at least one publications ad rate card created in the rate cards directory including details of at least five ad types as well as details of each issue’s deadlines. And as a service provider, you need to have your contact details with at least one portfolio item created.
You will also need to be part of Magazine Publishing Group in LinkedIn and all details must be entered to magazineadnetwork.com before the year end.
To get your credit, all you have to do is let me know by email that your details are in and I will make a note of your credit in our records.
This credit for advertising can be used at any time during 2009 within www.magazineadnetwork.com service.

If you have any questions of suggestions, please let me know or share your comments in our group discussions section in LinkedIn.

I just wanted to share some exciting news. Our Magazine Publishing Group in LinkedIn has just passed 500 members and is continuing to grow strong.
A group that was originally started as a way to help communicate magazine publishing related issues in July, has quickly grown connecting more and more people within the industry and is becoming a valuable group in LinkedIn, when it comes to Publishing Magazines.
With our Group, the aim is to connect as much of the Magazine publishing related professionals worldwide, to help communicate, to ask questions, to share experiences and to help each other.
Based on the discussions and some direct feedback that I’m getting from our members, the Group is serving its purpose well and there have been several great connections established through our Group already.
Looking forward of reaching our next milestones with you.
