sax-p Magazine - Saxperience

Jungle_Jim^m · 22nd March 2005, 22:23

what about sax-p magazine, maybe a quarterly magazine to start with, it could include stuff like meets, shows like FCS, product reviews etc all based on saxo's and the odd thing about c2 as well.

just an idea but would be pretty cool to have a specific saxo mag

something like this

Nice idea matey... this has already been thought of and will be coming in the near future

Ideas welcome from all... this is planned to be open to premium Members mind...

SaxoAL · 23rd March 2005, 02:59

i thought it would be a bit expensive to produce! id defo be interested in it and im sure all the premium members will help anyway they can!

nice to see sax-p growing!

Simo^p · 26th March 2005, 02:50

The more ideas the better on this one... Issue 1 is almost complete and will be going to print very soon

Dan · 26th March 2005, 02:56

good to hear simo! so will it be free to premium members or is a little donation needed?

Simo^p · 26th March 2005, 18:39

The plan is to be free to Premium Members... i shall speak to my printer on Tuesday and die when the price hits me

GreenSaxo · 28th March 2005, 01:26

speak to me aswell simo

although ur print run is probably too small for company i work for...

al_VTR · 28th March 2005, 04:29

i think this sounds like a great idea ! definitely worth sorting out the premium membership for (as well as the great prize draws etc.)

plates2u · 28th March 2005, 06:27

good to here book me a place for the pl8tes maty

saxo_vtr_51 · 28th March 2005, 06:48

lookin forward to getting my copy giz a nod wen there out simo

Simo^p · 29th March 2005, 17:48

Off to see the printer now for some quotes!

saxo_2004 · 29th March 2005, 18:02

i think it is a great idea i would be interested.

Simo^p · 29th March 2005, 19:33

I shall be printing: -

- 1000 colour, single sided business cards.

- 1000 colour, single sided A6 flyers (1/4 A4)

Both designs need to be developed and confirmed, so your input is welcome.

Regarding the newsletter for Premium Members, thats quite expensive, depending on how many pages, etc I do...

I was thinking of colour, A3 folded to A4... 4 pages or 8, but its quite expensive... and considering it would be quarterly, the cost is times four for the year.

Im still going to do it, but i need to consider some options and quantities... Would an A5 folded brochure be too small you think??

Comments welcome.

Dan · 29th March 2005, 19:45

i wouldnt have said it was too small, i wouldnt mind it being smaller to keep the cost down and im sure everyone else wont mind either!

SaxoAL · 30th March 2005, 00:26

seems some good amounts you are planning there simo.
can some content be written by prem members do you think? ie: pics and articles from certain areas.

Are these mags/newsletters etc going to be available to sax-p premium members from overseas aswell?

alex19 · 30th March 2005, 17:17

sounds like a good idea...

i still dont know how jim did the writing though... the same style as on his sig... you do the writing in photoshop or something else and copied it over?

al_VTR · 5th April 2005, 02:17

i don't think the A5 version would be to small at all.

with the business cards - i would be happy to distribute some. there are plenty of saxo's in my area. i try to approach people where i can. parked in between two other saxo's when i was at the gym today hoping they would notice the speakers !! LOL !
