Jane Magazine Links Promotions to Purchases

  • 1 min read

Jane Magazine has an interesting sponsorship package that requires readers to actually buy advertisers products. In a promotion called, “Jane Makes You Famous”, participants enter the purchased product’s UPC into a section on the publication’s web site and are entered into a contest. The winner gets $1,000 and a page in the magazine to write an article of their own.

Since the launch of the promotion, ad pages have gone up 29% and ad revenue has increased 52%.

Jane will continue with the success of it’s UPC based promotions with a campaign in the Fall called, “Fly With Jane”, that will give away airline trips and another called, “Jane Live From Where You Live”, giving entrants the chance to win a concert in their backyard or at a local bar.

Could the offline industry be heading in the direction of online accountability? That would be a good thing.

Psychology says the person who is kind to everyone and close to no one isn’t always lacking in the capacity for intimacy — they’re managing their exposure to it, and management and intimacy are fundamentally incompatible, which is why the closeness they’re managing against never quite arrives

Women who have developed something genuinely beautiful in their character by the time they reach their 60s and 70s aren’t the ones who were always kind — they’re the ones who went through enough to become bitter and chose something else instead, who were let down enough times to close off and decided to remain open anyway

People who have quietly accumulated real financial security over a lifetime don’t talk about money the way people who are trying to signal wealth do — they’re unhurried, they never seem to be calculating, they replace things when they wear out rather than when they impress, and there’s a specific quality of ease in how they move through the world that has nothing to do with spending and everything to do with never once having to wonder whether they can

I’m 65 and I spent my entire adult life being the most competent person in every room I entered and it took a therapist asking me one very quiet question at 63 to help me understand that the competence wasn’t confidence — it was the strategy of a child who learned that being needed was the closest available substitute for being loved

Psychology says the reason retirement feels like disappointment for so many people isn’t that they didn’t plan well enough financially — it’s that they spent forty years building an identity around being necessary and productivity gave them permission to exist that leisure never learned to provide
