Author Topic: (COMMERCIAL) Important Message From Military Miniature - M.M. needs your help!  (Read 915 times)

As many of you know, Military Miniature has always functioned on a shoestring budget, especially in community outreach. Well, our third-quarter financial statements show that the shoestring has gotten even stringier of late. We’re falling pretty short of our projected magazine sales for the year, and to ensure that there’s a Military Miniature for many years to come, we need your help now. To put it bluntly, we need more subscribers.

A lot of people think that buying a Military Miniature single issue supports us just as much as subscribing. But the bottom line is that Military Miniature has a greater chance at success having you as a subscriber than as an individual issue buyer. It’s not just about money. It’s also about having the dedication of the community to help us fuel the march forward into 2023-2024.

Then there are all those who say, “Oh, yeah, Military Miniature, I've been to the website/read a friend’s copy, and I’ve always meant to subscribe.” Now is the time to get all of these people to actually sign up.

Here’s what you can do to help:

-If you are not a subscriber right now, become one today. Go to https://militaryminiature.com/subscription/

-Pass this message along. Please send this to anyone you know who likes the magazine or whom you think would like the magazine. Help us get the word out!

Here’s what we’ll do for you:

-Deliver a bimonthly digital publication full of unique and engaging content

-Offer 25% off a subscription using coupon code “FALL” at checkout by 9/30

-Keep you abreast on important news through our FREE online blog

-Provide an updated directory of Stores and Events on our very active directory pages

With 25% off, we are the cheapest digital magazine on the market.

We know the demand is there. We’ve seen the ample requests for a North American magazine and launched hoping to fill that gap. While we know a print copy is most desired, the current cost of paper and printing makes a digital option the most cost-efficient not just for us, but for you, the reader.

With gratitude,

Jason Weiser, Editor
Samantha Rife, Managing Editor

Military Miniature Needs Your Help!

We asked, and you all came out in droves.

While we received many new subscribers, we’re still a ways away from reaching our goal of 800 additional subscribers. The future of Military Miniature Magazine relies on our readers, and we’re just not quite to the point we need to be.

We’ve been to conventions and watched the many Facebook groups out there and know just how big the North American wargaming community is. We also know how much that community has been looking for a localized outlet.

Yes, we know a physical, printed publication is really what the majority want. But we can guarantee that a printed magazine will never come because it’s far too prohibitive these days. We also think there are some benefits to digital that haven’t been considered, which we discuss in our blog A Case for Digital Magazines: Adjusting to a New Medium.

We want Military Miniature Magazine to be around throughout all of 2023 and beyond. Without the subscriptions to support it, it won’t be able to. Don’t forget, this isn’t just a sloppily thrown-together digital print. We commission authors, editors, and graphic designers to create a product worthy of your patronage.

So, how can you help us stick around? It’s very simple:

Keep telling your fellow wargamers to subscribe. You can subscribe here: https://militaryminiature.com/subscription/

With the holidays coming, Military Miniature Magazine would make a great gift, and with our 25% off sale running through 10/11, it’s the lowest-priced publication on the market.

The entire Military Miniature team appreciates your continued support.

Everyone don't forget the 25% off subscription sale expires at midnight tomorrow 10/11 EST! We got in several today (thank to all who subscribed!), but need about 700 more to reach our goal for this year! Don't miss out!
