Worth more than the cost!
I would recommend Lorraine Phillips' book to anyone interested in publishing a newsstand magazine. She has really explained owning a publishing company from A to Z in detail. It was just what I was looking for. The sections that offer you well researched suggestions as to magazine printers, distributors, equipment, software, marketing and more is worth the cost. I had a question that I needed clarification on. I contacted support and within a very short time, I was contacted. Yes, it was the same day. That showed great concern for anyone that purchases from her. You cannot lose from purchasing this book. In fact, you will gain a great deal from it.

Excellent guide to publishing your first magazine
For someone like me with no publishing experience whatsoever and, up until a year ago, never had a thought about publishing my own magazine, this book was a godsend. It provides a thorough review about what you need to know to start a magazine in a simple and easy to read format. The resources are excellent. The greatest testament I can give to Lorraine Phillips is that as a result of reading her books, I'll be launching my own magazine next month ([...]). If you're looking to start a magazine and don't know where to start, look no further and pick up this book.

So concise and clear!
Really found this book to be highly valuable. Lorraine explained the step by step process so clearly that it felt like I was in a classroom, and she was right in front of me teaching - caught myself writing down questions to ask later😂. All in all, great practical and invaluable book with lots and lots of resources at your fingertips.

This magazine book is a fabulous template for the would be publisher
The author provides a succinct, but comprehensive review of all you need to do to start a magazine. She covers everything and explains the options and, if she has a preference, why she prefers one to another. She has numerous charts and graphs to help you figure out how much it will cost, how to track content in the editorial process, etc. The easy to understand read is a must buy reference book for magazine publishing.

First-rate Information
This short, but jammed-packed book covers just about every aspect to publishing your first magazine. Lorraine Phillips has a way of explaining what she did (good and bad) in a way that is easy to understand. I'm publishing my first magazine in January of 2015 and I have yet to find a resource as plentiful as this book. - CEO, The Mulligan Magazine; for the Christian Golfer
