I haven't really got any room to move, as printing and distribution costs are rather high due to size and amount of magazines!.

Hm 20,000 thats rather a small circulation for that money.?

We have a circulation of 1.3 billion and not sure we charge that much.

haha!! i am so never going to win!!

A 20 page, full colour mag is not cheap to get printed or delivered, i am talking true QUALITY here!!!

Believe me, for what my costs are, this is a really cheap price!!
If you looked below my window, thats where my profit is, it went straight out the window!!
This is more for "public awareness" for everyone rather than trying to make money.

Where would the magazines be available? How would they be distributed? Wondering who would get to see them.

They will be distributed by a local company that i have used many times before, they will go to private homes in Hilsea, North End, Fratton, Milton.
These area's are where the employed, family man live. (no council etc)

We have also arranged to leave two in Dental practises, Nail bars and Hairdressers. A great read while waiting, and an upto date read rather than those magazines that are over a year old!
