We produce your magazine for you.

From the studio behind Meditation Magazine.

We take the entire magazine off your hands. No wrestling with designers, printers, or production software, and no losing months to a learning curve. We've been doing this for over a decade, with processes already built and proven, and our titles sit on shelves in Whole Foods and Barnes & Noble. Yours will be held to that same professional standard. We work alongside you the whole way, with weekly meetings where we show you exactly how each step is done, so you could take it over yourself one day if you ever want to. But you won't have to. We carry it end to end, from wherever you are today to a finished, printed magazine in your hands and shipped wherever you need it.

Printing & shipping

Every plan above includes fully managed print and ship logistics. We coordinate and oversee the entire run so you never have to. The cost of the print run itself is separate, and you have two easy ways to handle it.

Option 1

We handle it for you

We run the whole print and mailing job through our trusted printing and shipping partners, and we handle paying the vendors so you don't have to think about it. We give you one clear price based on the size and specs of your job, billed as an additional service on a job-by-job basis. It covers everything: printing, binding, paper, ink, press labor, plate changes, polybags, boxes, pick-and-pack, mailing, freight for large volumes, and USPS or UPS for smaller drops. Our partners produce bookstore-quality magazines, the kind you see in Whole Foods and Barnes & Noble. They're eco-friendly, reliable, genuinely good to work with, and priced competitively. We chose them after testing roughly twenty printers over the years.

Option 2

Bring your own printer & shipper

Prefer to use your own vendors, or pay a printer directly? That's completely fine. We'll onboard your printer and shipper into our logistics system and manage the entire run with them for a flat $3,900.

The details

What's included, end to end

Our job is to take content off your plate and hand you a magazine that's ready for readers:

  • Content strategy & flat plan so you know exactly what's needed and where it goes.
  • Design & layout by the same designer who produces Meditation Magazine, built around your brand and structure.
  • Prepress: press-ready files, color, and bleeds.
  • Proofs & your approval, always, before anything prints.
  • Proofreading of both content and design.
  • Up to 2 revisions per piece as needed.
  • Print & ship coordination, fully managed.
What we ask from you
  • Your sections and editorial direction.
  • Your brand colors, or let us recommend a palette.
  • Your content, at the level your plan calls for: fully edited, raw, or just a concept.
  • A distribution drop-list before print, if we're shipping for you, so copies go straight from the press to their destinations instead of a warehouse.
  • Timely proof review so we can hold the schedule.

We'll set a clear content deadline together at the start. The schedule depends on content arriving on time.

How the schedule works

We meet weekly, a standing planning session that runs until your issue is sent to the printer. Between meetings we're moving the magazine forward: mapping content, designing, laying out, and preparing for press.

The biggest factor in staying on schedule is content arriving on time and proofs being reviewed promptly. We define the page count and revision rounds at the start so everyone's working to the same plan.

Who we work with

We're selective. We take on magazine brands we believe are making the world a better place, and we reserve the right to decline work that isn't a fit. If your mission is one we're proud to help carry, we'd love to talk.
