I can’t say that I’m terribly upset and that I didn’t see this coming.

Now that BrickJournal can have real subscribers, the magazine can continue to grow with more advertising. I do hope that the advertising will be cheaper for LEGO based advertisers somehow.

If BrickJournal could be distributed in places like Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, etc, then more people could see our great hobby and we can reach out to more people.

I wouldn’t mind seeing a two year or three year subscription discount.

Scott

It was a matter of time - the biggest challenge has been getting things lined up.

   Now that BrickJournal can have real subscribers, the magazine can continue to grow with more advertising. I do hope that the advertising will be cheaper for LEGO based advertisers somehow.


I am working on that - there will be a display ad level and a classified ad level. Classified will have a specific section, like any classified section in a newspaper or magazine. Events will be promoted one way or another also.

I am working on that too, however the decision hasn’t been made to distribute from them yet. When I find out I will provide that information - and at that point I would encourage everyone to request the mag at their bookstore.

   I wouldn’t mind seeing a two year or three year subscription discount.

I’m not comfortable with that option at this point - there is no advertising yet and subscriptions have just begun to be offered. Once I have a better picture (in a few months) I can take a look at multi year subscriptions.

Thanks!

Joe
