Hi all: Whiteprint: Lifestyle magazine for visually impaired http://www.eyeway.org/?q=whiteprint-lifestyle-magazine-visually-impaired White Print is India's first lifestyle magazine for the visually challenged and is priced at just Rs 30 which is a fraction of what a regular lifestyle magazine costs.
Upasana Makati, 24, quit her public relations job after just a year to better her relations with the world of niche publishing. Launched in May this year, White Print is a 64-page Braille magazine that includes stories on politics, art and culture from across the globe, reviews of audio books, gadgets, travel and food. Upasana tied up with the National Association for Blind in Mumbai to print the magazine but she is clear, this is not a charity venture. White Print has adopted a subscription based model. The distinctiveness of the idea has attracted regular contributions from journalists like Barkha Dutt, freelance columnists and even friends at absolutely no cost. For subscription, Whiteprint made individual calls and sending mailers to their database of visually impaired people. The magazine's first print run was 500 copies. With best regards, Helpdesk Team!
