COUNTRY LIFE MAKES HISTORIC CHANGE TO ON SALE DAY
April 24, 2008
Country Life the essential weekly guide to the finest homes on the market is moving its on sale day from Thursday to Wednesday for the first time in its 111-year history, taking effect from Wednesday, May 7.
The move will come as great news to consumers as well as many premium property estate agents. Readers will now get the core mix of country-related editorial along with details of the latest premium properties often exclusive to Country Life a day earlier before the weekend.
Electronic publishing technology will also allow the magazine to retain its usual Monday deadline alongside its new Wednesday on sale day, making it the most immediate and up to date magazine to cover countryside issues.
Country Life editor Mark Hedges says: Country Life is already the only glossy, perfect-bound, weekly magazine in Britain. Now, we will be able to get all the important rural news to our readers even faster than before by moving our on sale date from Thursday to Wednesday. By using the very latest technology, Country Life will be by far the most up-to-date magazine covering all the countryside issues.
Publishing director Jean Christie says: Many agents choose to launch their premium properties through the pages of Country Life. Moving the on sale date to a Wednesday will enable agents to market their properties even earlier and that can only be good news for buyers and sellers alike.
Country Life is undoubtedly one of the biggest and instantly recognisable magazine brands in the UK today. Quintessentially English, it is best known for delivering infamous content such as the regular frontispiece, architecture, gardening and top-end property advertising.
