OK! Magazine reducing price
CSNA concerned about how a cover price reduction for UK weekly title Ok! will affect its profitability for retailers here in Ireland
18 November 2011
The news that the publishers of OK! weekly will be reducing on a permanent basis the cover price of their weekly celebrity news magazine from £1.99 to £1.49 from issue 799 (19 October) will have a significant impact upon the profitability of the title for Irish retailers.
It has sold for €2.83 for some time, earning retailers 65 cent for each copy sold. With the new reduction, the cover price will translate to €2.11, giving a new cash return of 49 cent per copy. Put simply, to earn the same return from OK! magazine, you need to sell 32% more copies than before to make the same level of cash return.
