Building Subscription Websites: Six Proven Models for High Profit Publishing WebsitesDiscover the “Holy Grail” of the periodical publishing industry. Learn the secrets to publishing profitable subscription websites from Phil Ash and Don Nicholas. Dear Publishing Colleague, There’s a tidal wave of change hitting the publishing industry and its name is subscription websites. Why now? Perhaps we should erect a monument to Steve Jobs. With 250 digital magazines premiering on the Apple iPad platform, and more than four million iPads already sold, there is a vigorous renewed interest in digital subscription products. Even though subscription websites have been around for more than a decade, this is a genuine revolution. It’s true. There is a fundamental transformation underway in the publishing industry that has been triggered by the general public’s recent awareness and acceptance of digital magazines. Here’s the best part: The iPad is successfully promoting the notion that premium content costs you money. And consumers are responding by opening their online checkbooks. And it’s not happening only on the iPad platform. Book, magazine, newspaper and newsletter publishers are already creating applications that will certainly drive reader demand for all the new eReader devices. The result: Consumer attitudes are really changing, with millions of users acquiring digital reading devices and purchasing incalculable amounts of editorial content. All this spells opportunity for publishers like you. [bttn_webinar] You can be among the publishers poised to make millions with subscription websites.
Subscription websites have been described at the “Holy Grail” of the periodical publishing industry. Sure, we all know that print magazine and newsletter publishers in the U.S. have been subscription-driven for decades. Many publishers have produced profitable white papers, webinars, live events and other “one shot” products. But for sheer profit, nothing matches a successful subscription product that’s based on the continuity revenue model. That’s because regardless of the subscription price, the typical customer is a loyal, paying subscriber for an average of 36 months. So a publisher’s initial marketing efforts generally yield revenue for years to come. That’s money in the bank for publishers like you and me. During our, Building Subscription Websites: Six Proven Models for High Profit Publishing Websites, webinar we’ll consider three dramatic changes in the subscription website revenue model that can mean unprecedented revenue and profits for you.
My colleague and co-presenter, Phil Ash, will talk about how these changes have enabled his company to pursue new subscription newsletter niche topics that previously weren’t feasible using the print publishing model. Quite simply, the numbers work differently now. What may not have been a profitable niche in the past (print) may be very profitable now — in the world of digital delivery. [bttn_webinar] Phil Ash reveals all: Case studies from the real world of subscription website publishingYou probably know Phil Ash.

Here’s how: [bttn_webinar] Cordially, P.S. The magazine subscription website model is poised to explode as Apple makes it clear to publishers who offer an online digital version of their magazine that their subscribers will be able to access it on an iPad. That means you now have access to another four million (and growing!) potential subscribers, if you offer a digital version of your publication. And that’s only counting the iPad platform. There are at least a dozen other eReaders announced or under development. The numbers are staggering. The potential is enormous. Smart publishers who have been waiting for the right time to go digital are now getting on board with subscription websites. I urge you to act now, before your competitors make a pre-emptive strike.
