If people really want to get behind CRUX, why not all subscribers forfeit their
subscriptions and place it towards number 8.
I have family connections who have been in the newsagency industry for over 15 years.
If you were to by-pass gordon & gotch, newslimited, NDD and RDS as distributors, save
money on postage and approached the Australian Newsagents federation you may be
able to secure some sort of small distribution deal. Unfortunately you would be looking
at any where between 15 to 25% commission to newsagents.

There are many small in-house publications that approach the aussie news federation
and have their mags distributed, which eventually get picked up by the big guys.
Obviously there is a catch and that is selling quantity and returns.

advertisers are a pain in the butt to deal with

food for thought and my 2 cents worth
