(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nModern Retail reported that Duer, a performance jeans brand, is publishing a quarterly magazine called Interval, betting on analog media as a differentiator amid a broader resurgence in print.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): print magazines are not dead; they're now a luxury retention tool for brands that can afford the production cost and have a real customer list to mail to. The move works because it's rare enough to feel special, but regular enough (quarterly) to become a habit. Run this: audit your best 500 customers, write one long product story per issue, shoot real user photos, and mail it. The unsubscribe rate on print is zero because it arrives uninvited as a gift, not as noise.\nWhat that means for you: Everyone talks about going digital-first, which means everyone's inbox is identical. Duer is winning a different game — they're making something a person keeps on the coffee table for three months instead of deleting in three seconds. If you're shipping a product that people buy for lifestyle reasons (not convenience), print is the medium that matches the product's slowness. Start small: 2,000 copies, one good story, mail to repeat customers only.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — Modern Retail: https://www.modernretail.co/marketing/canadian-apparel-brand-duer-launches-a-print-magazine-as-analog-comes-back-in-style/?utm_campaign=modernretaildis&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=general-rss.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
