How often is the WDA magazine published? Thanks Nancy -----Original Message----- From: showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:showgsd-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Penny & Bill Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2011 10:44 AM To: The List Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: The Review Thanks Kathy, for showing the prices between the WDA magazine and The Review. I would add one more thing: I liked the SIZE of the old Review; it was smaller and more distinctive. At the time, I was told that this new, bigger size would bring in MORE advertisers--well, THAT hasn't happened. My suggestions: 1. Reduce the size of The Review. 2. Lower the price of black and white ads to $70. 3. Keep the color ads (if you must) so that there won't be complaints about "a reduction in quality." 4. Have monthly "specials" (ie stud issue, bitch issue, upcoming stars, new champions, performance, etc) with a reduced price for ads. Maybe that could be done every second month, thus having 6 "specials" a year. 5. Keep the Review at 12 issues--everyone I talk to IN THE MEMBERSHIP wants a Review EVERY month. 6. Accept more articles for publication. Lastly, this magazine is for the membership; but for quite awhile it hasn't seemed like it is. Is it the ads, lack of substantial articles? I don't know. Also, everything I've said is NOT a reflection on Susan Casey's job as editor. I feel she does a good job with what she has.

I have brought this up to principle parties and I get, "I don't know why?..." And we are supposedly getting a good deal on the printing? how? Why do we pay so much more/?? Ridiculous. If we can't get answers then why doesn't the PC contact the WDA and ask advice on how to do this?
