Check Up on Zoomer
Back in August, CoversSell.com featured the September 2010 issue of Zoomer as Cover of the Week, and predicted great sales. We called the cover very Vanity Fair-esque.
Happiness is something we all aspire to achieve. Some pray for it. But great single copy sales can make us happy, and put a smile on our faces too, eh?
With newsstand sales in 2010 “challenged,” increasing sales by a wide margin is a praise-worthy accomplishment.
The verdict is in from consumers:
1. The issue has the best-ever sell-through efficiency since Zoomer first started publishing, back in October 2008.
2. The issue has by far the best sales result of 2010 to date, with sales up 53% compared to the previous five issues.
3. It beat last year’s September issue by 71% in copies sold, and efficiency was up 20pts.
A fabulous cover and outstanding results! Congratulations to the team at Zoomer and Coast to Coast.

Sales did zoom. And the DM did know who he was posing for, according to Ms. Boyd, the editor of Zoommer

WOW! Congratulations. I wonder if the fact that it was "THE HAPPINESS ISSUE" that pulled the readers in? Everyone is looking for it. Few are finding it. Keep up the great work guys.

Do I detect a note of jealousy?

The Dalai Lama is most certainly (and thankfully) not a zoomer.
