ACP Magazines’ weekly NW, OK and Take 5 titles suffered double digit year-on-year falls in the latest circulation results, while Pacific Magazines’ New Idea has finally seen a slight rise.
New Idea, which underwent a redesign and launched a supporting brand campaign in January, is starting to see some results, with circulation rising by a modest 0.12% to 330,503, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations figures for the three months to the end of March.
Significantly, it was the first year-on-year (YOY) growth New Idea has managed since 2006.
The best news for PacMags again came from its celebrity gossip title Famous, with a 14.39% rise to 88,151.
