Blackcat,
We were heading up to Bright to get into the High Country with a bunch of camper trailers for Offroad Camper of the Year. It's out January. Let the speculation begin...

That would have been Marco, who writes the Bush Mechanics stuff in the magazine.

How do sales look fo the last issue so far Carlisle?

I bought it just for you and I hardly buy mags these days because I never get the time to read it. I can say though it was a bit above the norm as far as magazines are these days. Layout was pretty good. I liked the DVD also. Thanks

Hot off the press - here's a preview trailer for the Kimberley DVD.

If you haven't already grabbed one of these - this is a super quick taste of what you're missing...

Paul, I'd say with 8500 members on Myswag, allowing 1/4 of these to be old inactive memberships, and maybe another 1/3 who don't buy magazines, I'd say Carlisle should have at least sold 4000 copies of this issue.

Gunna Do,

With Stu, our circ manager, up the bush with me over the last couple of weeks...the only thing I know is it's supposed to be up 10% or so in four days. That's fantastic news, and no doubt it has something to do with the support of people like yourself.

I'm just really excited that everyone seems to like it. It may sound corny, but that counts for a lot more than the money.

I'd say with a 10% increase in sales, you had better pack your gear again and get ready for another trip away with the cinematographers, because there is no way they are going to can the DVD program now.  Job well done by the looks.

I bought mine last week and I bought it at coles while doing the grocery shopping! How handy was that!  :cup:

You are lucky. You can hide it in the shopping so the wife doesn't notice!
Our supermarkets don't carry CTA (or even that other CT magazine) They only have caravan magazines...  ???... Really? I'm sure there are way too many  Jaycos in the world as it is anyway  ;D ;D

Got the CTA enewsletter via email this morning and was reading through it and recognised some quotes from readers that were used :cup:

That would have to be worth a stubby holder surely ;)

Mate - I'm working on securing enough stubby holders for everyone who posted a pic on here with the mag, and I'm still chasing something a bit more exciting for one of you lucky swaggers.

I will be in touch with everyone shortly...and yes, MDS69, we definitely look after those who look after us... :cheers:

Here is my proof. Not much help to you Carlisle, I buy every month anyway.


I like the style of writing in your magazine, The touring and the readers rigs.

Got it already. Good presentation. good luck with trying to get bucks from the bosses. I think it's tight everywhere except at the top levels where they just throw the cash away.

I subscribe, here is my 4 year old reading the magazine, he wanted mummy to buy a drifta kitchen, I explained to him that mummy already has a kitchen in the camper trailer so he wanted a toy drifta kitchen just for him.

Hi Carlisle,

I have only got my hands on your magazine a couple of times due to a subscription with another mag, however once the subscription ends I will be reassessing the next mag to subscribe to (getting a bit bored with current mag, same old stuff and not based on touring which is of more interest to me now).

The good news is I bought the current mag for my birthday Friday 11/11/11 so can't wait to open it 

You may have a new subscriber in the future

 :cheers:
