often?
not at all
weekly
monthly
only if they are
free
The pie chart above shows how often people read
magazines. As seen above, 40% who are the Majority
only read magazines if they are free. This could be a
threat to my magazine in the market and for companies
that will publish my magazine. This helped me find out
on what other things to do in order to get people to read
my magazine without giving it for free. For example by
including some freebies inside and competitions.
