No talent for Amuse
MediaWeek reports that Amuse, “the free monthly fashion glossy for London” is suspending publication because it has run out of money.
Quoth the magazine’s publisher Stephen Murphy: “The advertising sale is more difficult than expected.“
Compare and contrast with the Stephen’s statement on the Amuse website: “advertisers appreciate the benefit of free. We invest in content and quality – that brings the readers – and then the advertisers follow.”
Perhaps the ‘freemium’ [sic] route isn’t the way to publishing riches after all?
