    According to data from the research company Mediascope, the Internet audience in Russia at the end of 2016 - the beginning of 2017 grew to 87 million people. That is, seven out of ten Russians aged 12-64 are actively exploring the Web, and this figure is growing every year. A third of Russian citizens use the Internet to search for news information, just a year ago their number was 1.5 times less.

    For these reasons, the creation of an online magazine looks like a promising project that does not require large investments. The presented business plan of the magazine with calculations shows that its initial monthly profit will be 53.12 thousand rubles, and in the future, with the active promotion of the project, income growth is expected.

    Business idea: creating an online magazine on the topic of fitness and a healthy lifestyle with a payback of 2.5 months.

    Objectives: to create a company with high profitability, profit and meet the information, educational and entertainment needs of the audience. It is planned to reach the figure of 700-800 thousand monthly readers in five years, to enter the top ten major websites about fitness and a healthy lifestyle in Russia.

    Starting investments in the project will amount to 163 thousand rubles. This will be the entrepreneur's own funds. At the initial stage, it is not planned to use borrowed funds. The funds will be used to register a domain, create and promote a website, fill the online publication with texts, photos and videos.

    You will also need to register the site as an online publication in Roskomnadzor. By law, this is not a prerequisite, but it will increase the confidence in the site among visitors, advertisers, sponsors and the Yandex.News service. This will allow the media to use the official right to receive information, protect before the law and remove responsibility for disseminating information that does not correspond to reality, discredits the honor and dignity of citizens if they are received from news agencies, from responses to requests, reprinted from other publications. In particular, you will not have to be responsible for user comments if they do not undergo preliminary moderation. The cost of registration for self-registration will be 10 thousand rubles.

    To carry out activities, it is planned to register an LLC. Suitable OKVED: "Publishing" - 58.11.2, 58.14.2; "Activities in the field of information technology" - 63.11, 63.12; "Advertising activities and market research" - 73.12.

    The project will be considered as a long-term investment with a circular economy. When income falls, the cost of acquiring new materials decreases, and vice versa. Profitability is growing, the number of investments in the magazine is growing. The owner of an online publication will be engaged in other activities so as not to depend on the regularity of income.

    Stages of project implementation

    1. Buying a domain and hosting.
    2. Installation and development of CMS.
    3. Design development.
    4. Selection and testing of authors for the quality and uniqueness of texts.
    5. Filling the site with content, registering the site in search engines.
    6. Registration in contextual advertising services.
    7. Registration of a legal entity.
    8. Media registration.
    9. Promotion of mass media, attraction of audience and advertisers.
    10. Analysis of the result, adjustment of the plan.
    11. Project development.

    Concept

    Electronic media are valued by the audience for useful and interesting content, reliable and high-quality information on a specific topic, which will help solve a problem, learn something new. The main objective of the magazine is to provide objective and up-to-date information about the sports lifestyle in a reader-friendly format. It will be a modern encyclopedia of fitness and a healthy lifestyle with photos and videos of exercises, tips from fitness trainers and doctors.

    The choice of topics is explained by the growing interest of Russians in sports, going to the gym, proper nutrition and daily routine. 60% of Russians, according to a 2016 VTsIOM survey, go in for sports. At the same time, in 2015 they were 10% less. A cult of a healthy body and organism is being formed in society, more and more state institutions and private fitness clubs are opening.

    That is why the pages of the publication will contain materials about body workouts at home and in the gym, effective programs to increase muscle mass and burn fat, exercise techniques, balanced nutrition, sports nutrition.

    The content structure will be roughly as follows:

    • 25% of materials about muscle development and exercises.
    • 25% about proper nutrition.
    • 20% on health.
    • 15% about diets and weight loss.
    • 15% on self care.

    In addition, the magazine will include articles with practical advice from athletes, fitness trainers, nutritionists, doctors, reviews of specific products, such as sports gadgets, running shoes, swimming accessories and others. It is planned to actively involve subscribers in the formation of content: polls, proposals for topics, materials, experiments, contests.

    The project will not require the purchase or rental of premises, as the owner and authors of the online publication will work remotely and, if necessary, hold meetings in coworking spaces or online via Skype. The purchase of special equipment is also not required, since the authors will work on their computers, photographers and cameramen - with their own equipment.

    Market analysis

    A 2017 VTsIOM survey showed that Russians receive information mainly from television (about 60% of the audience). Almost a third of Russian citizens prefer to use the Internet: they read websites, blogs and social networks. Basically, these are people from 18 to 34 years old. At the same time, the indicator of user activity on the Web is only growing every year, while interest in print media, on the contrary, is falling. In 2016, the magazines Allure, Conde Nast Traveler, Interview, Russian Reporter, Afisha and others were closed. For this reason, creating an online edition is preferable to printing a glossy magazine.

    Benefits of an online magazine:

    • Available to an unlimited number of readers.
    • Distributed throughout the country and beyond.
    • It has a free newsletter, which increases the loyalty of potential subscribers.
    • It requires less money to run, there is no need to rent a room, buy printing equipment or spend money on printing, layout, delivery of publications to kiosks.
    • It requires fewer employees: an editor, a proofreader, 2-3 journalists on staff, a photographer, a designer are enough; if necessary, freelancers and an accountant can be involved.
    • Ability to use interactive and engaging content: slideshows, videos, tests.
    • Ability to use links to refer to advertisers' websites.
    • Unlimited edition size, while the reader can get acquainted with the materials made a year ago.

    The winning moment is the fact that at the end of 2017, the costs of advertisers for promotion on the Internet reached the advertising budgets on television. Analysts of the investment bank BCS Global Markets note that in 2016 online advertising accounted for 38% of the advertising market in Russia, in 2017 - 41%, then the share will grow by 2-3% annually.

    Target audience of the project: 55% - men, 45% - women. The age of 70% of readers is from 18 to 34 years old, the rest are 15-18 years old and 35-45 years old. Portrait of the audience: higher education, office worker as a manager or a leading specialist, goes in for fitness to maintain health and fitness, periodically works with a personal trainer and buys sports nutrition, monitors his daily routine and nutrition, annually travels to rest in Russian or foreign resorts , prefers to buy "status" goods of famous brands.

    organizational plan

    To implement the project, it will be necessary to hire qualified employees with at least a year of work experience, plus experience in remote work in publications about sports, fitness, health or a similar field. Editor's responsibilities: team management, content editing, competitor analysis, selection of topics and news for publication, creation of new sections. The work of an Internet marketer includes the development of a magazine promotion on the Web, the creation of a brand positioning model, media planning, resource traffic analysis, an SMM strategy, maintaining groups on social networks, and attracting potential advertisers.

    Journalists-copywriters will fill the site with unique materials, take interviews, a copywriter-translator will translate and adapt texts from English-language thematic magazines. The photographer will do staging and reportage shooting, process pictures for the site. The task of the videographer is to shoot thematic videos for the site with the participation of fitness trainers, to mount the video.

    Staff members:

    The owner will act as the director of the project, he will be engaged in its development, expansion and change of directions of work, analysis of results, strategic management, selection and motivation of personnel, development of a marketing campaign, increase in advertising sales. At the initial stage, and then, if necessary, a designer, a site promotion specialist, an SMM specialist, an accountant will be involved.

    Marketing plan

    There is a shortage of resources with high-quality, useful and unique information on the Web, content on most sites is obtained by rewriting information from other resources. Search engines support the creation of unique content, so their mechanisms are being improved in order to find and promote just such materials.

    For this reason, to conquer the audience and search engines, you will need to create the largest possible amount of your own content: interviews, reports, photos, videos. This will help to attract as many visitors as possible, and consequently, advertisers - the main source of income for the media.

    Ways to promote a digital magazine:

    • News aggregators and traffic exchangers, including News.yandex.ru, News.google.ru, News.liveinternet.ru, Newsland.ru, Smi2.ru and others.
    • Search engine optimization of the site.
    • Contextual advertising in the search network.
    • Maintaining groups in social networks, advertising in other groups.
    • Creating a subscriber base: a form for collecting email and subsequent distribution of new publications, offering unique "closed" content for subscribers.

    To increase reader loyalty, you should organize competitions and experiments with prizes from sponsors, accept high-quality text and photo content from them, publish interviews with famous people, conduct audience surveys to identify needs and topics of interest.

    Production plan

    Monthly expenses:

    • Hosting payment: 1.5 thousand rubles.
    • Wage fund: 200 thousand rubles + insurance premiums 33% = 66 thousand rubles.
    • Services of an accountant and freelancers: 30 thousand rubles.
    • Website promotion in search engines and social networks: 80 thousand rubles.
    • Other expenses: 10 thousand rubles.

    Total monthly expenses project: 387.5 thousand rubles (for the year 4.65 million rubles).

    Tax payments: 15% of the "income minus expenses" of the organization (9.38 thousand rubles).

    Expenses for the first year of the online magazine: 163 thousand rubles + 4.65 million rubles + 9.38 x 12 = 4.925 million rubles.

    Financial plan

    Variable costs of the project: 163 thousand rubles.

    Fixed costs of the project: 387.5 + 9.38 = 396.88 thousand rubles / month, or 4.76 million rubles / year.

    Opportunities for publishing income:

    • Placement of banners and videos on the site.
    • Sponsorship and special projects.
    • Placement of PR and information materials.
    • Paid webinars and courses with fitness trainers, nutritionists.
    • Individual consultations with site experts.
    • Connecting the site to the advertising network "Yandex", Google and others.

    Monthly revenue: 450 thousand rubles.

    Annual revenue while maintaining indicators: 450 x 12 = 5,4< млн рублей .

    Break-even point for the first year = (revenue x fixed costs) / (revenue - variable costs) = (5.4 million x 4.76 million) / (5.4 million - 0.163 million) = 4.9 million rubles.

    Profit per month: 450 thousand rubles - 396.88 thousand rubles = 53.12 thousand rubles.

    Profit for the year: 53.12 thousand rubles x 12 = 637.44 thousand rubles.

    Profitability\u003d profit / revenue x 100% \u003d 637.44 thousand / 5,400 thousand x 100% \u003d 11,8% .

    Payback\u003d starting investments / profit for the year \u003d 163 thousand rubles / 637.44 thousand rubles \u003d 0.25 years, 3 months.

    Eventually

    Every year more and more Russians master the Internet and register in social networks. Surveys show that online media is also gaining popularity. An online publication on the topic of fitness and a healthy lifestyle will become a popular product due to the growing interest of people from 18 to 34 years old in strengthening their health, improving physical fitness and proper nutrition.

    The presented example of the project showed that this business will require small initial investments - 163 thousand rubles, which will pay off in 3 months. The project does not need to rent premises and purchase equipment, it is necessary to create a website and fill it with materials. Monthly expenses will amount to 396.88 thousand rubles, monthly net profit in the first months of work - 53.12 thousand rubles. Further, it is planned to increase the profitability of the company by attracting more visitors to the site, actively promoting it in search engines and social networks and increasing the volume of investments by advertisers.

    It can be argued that a digital magazine is a real opportunity to create a stable source of income and realize your creative and entrepreneurial potential. For success, it is necessary to build a competent strategy for the development of the publication, think over a content plan and hire professionals to create high-quality and useful material.

    Beautiful, photoshopped covers are full of all the windows of kiosks and shops. Perfect models in perfect expensive clothes, luxury cars and accessories, exotic countries, all this plunges us into the ideal world that the media imposes on us so much and where shopping solves literally any problem. But is it really so?

    What lies behind the beautiful cover of a fashionable glossy publication

    Like any business, starting a magazine takes a lot of effort.

    • First of all, you need to be a specialist in this field, have experience, deep knowledge of the market, understand the specifics of the business and certainly have useful connections and contacts (where without them?).
    • To get a powerful market, you need to prove yourself at various events, shine and PR to the maximum, expanding the circle of acquaintances as widely as possible.
    • It is necessary to constantly promote the magazine on the Internet, in search engines, and actively disseminate information in social networks.

    All this will entail certain costs.

    Main sources of expenses and income

    Expenses:
    Interviews with famous personalities and exclusive photos can also significantly increase interest in the magazine, but they also cost a lot of money. For example, Western publications are ready to spend a tidy sum for scandalous, shocking news, compromising evidence, photos of newborns and celebrity pregnancies, star weddings. Our celebrities and media are actively adopting this experience and making money on everything. Why not?


    Income:
    Despite the beautiful articles and photographs, most magazines make money by advertising various products from the fashion and beauty industry. When you pick up a modern fashion magazine, you get the impression that you are reading a continuous stream of advertisements, occasionally "for decency" diluted with articles. And what publishers do not lure their readers: free samples with cosmetics and perfumes, small accessories as a gift, all kinds of drawings among regular readers.

    Risks

    Creating your own magazine is considered a high-risk business. Many journals quickly cease to exist, unable to withstand the competition and the initial financial burden. Therefore, it is necessary, first of all, to stock up on powerful capital and form the right strategy.

    A worthy competitor for a printed publication is an online magazine. It does not require such large investments and has a number of advantages, namely an unlimited amount of information for every taste. But nothing can compare with the feeling of aesthetic pleasure when you hold a quality glossy magazine in your hands!

    Today, social networks are actively developing, which capture more and more audience every day. Most stars and public people have their own personal pages, where they share the latest news of their life and work, post their personal photos and their family members. That is, subscribers have access to the primary source of information, moreover, they can ask their questions and leave comments. This jeopardizes the need for the work of the media and threatens to lose the audience and shift from leading positions.


    Also, many magazines are faced with the problem of lack of advertising. Advertisers are in no hurry to pay money for advertising in an unknown, new magazine, but prefer popular, time-tested publications.

    Where to begin

    There are two types of glossy magazines on the market today: the so-called domestic ones and those that operate under a Western franchise (Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Maxim, Elle). The number of Western magazines is twice as low as ours, but they are very strong competition and are in the niche of the most profitable. The advantages of such magazines are that they use a ready-made promoted name, concept and partially materials, and adapt to our reader. Plus, the publisher receives guaranteed advertising budgets from the very beginning, which are the main source of income (up to 80% of profits). The downside of such a magazine is the need to pay royalties - a percentage of sales and advertising to the brand owner (from 10 to 25%, depending on the contract).


    Difficulties in creating a domestic magazine primarily lie in a rather large start-up capital, which amounts to tens of thousands of dollars: an entrance fee to get on the shelves and advertising costs. The payback period for such a magazine is about three years. The advantage of our magazines over foreign ones is that their content is fully consistent with the mentality of the reader.

    Step by step plan to create your own gloss


      We study the market and determine the target audience: what kind of reader is the magazine intended for. It is necessary to find your own niche, to offer the reader something unique and inimitable. The most popular are specialized magazines (for example, about children, about motherhood, about fishing, about finance, etc.).

      We draw up a business plan with the calculation of the exact amount of start-up capital and the payback time of the magazine. Some initial costs are described above.

      We attract investors. Since creating a glossy magazine requires a lot of start-up capital, the best solution is to find people who are willing to invest money in your project. Interested businessmen can become a partner, co-owner or sponsor of a successful glossy magazine.

      We form a team. One of the main and main components of the magazine's success is a strong and experienced team, which should consist of professionals who know their business. But it is also important to involve new people in the cause. They can bring in new ideas that will serve as an incentive for everyone, which will give a powerful impetus to the development of the business. And, of course, there must be a strong leader - the editor-in-chief. Key specialists: editor, designer, layout designer, journalists, proofreader, accountant, head of the advertising department. Many publications invite specialists to work remotely, trying to save money. Additional employees of the publishing house: managers, secretary, office cleaner, driver.

      It is necessary to find an office space, provide it with the necessary office equipment, stationery and Internet access. We create favorable conditions for well-coordinated work and a positive end result.

      We determine the format of the magazine, the frequency of issues, the circulation and the volume of pages.
