1. Make it an iMagazine using iBooks Author
2. Give it for free on the AppStore
3. Monetize using full page ads
Why free? the whole idea is to have eyeballs so you can charge for premium ads.
Or you can charge from 0.99 to 4.99 depending on how selective or captive the content is, like finance, law, etc.
There is a ripe market for disruption nobody has tamed yet, everybody can design and publish their own magazine with little effort and there are millions of possible categories from fashion to tech, nature, biking, sailing, etc.
The newsstand icon in my iPad is always empty but that's about to change.
- Kilimanjaro 15y agoRight there, as more and more iMagazines pop up, the need to design full-page ads increases, creating a new market on its own, giving birth to a new ad network. There is plenty of money to be made, all we need is imagination and dedication.
- itmag 15y agoRight. And maybe a startup is needed in the iMagazine advertisement niche? Matching up magazines and advertisers, doing analytics, running campaigns, that sort of thing. This actually sounds quite interesting to me...
