Specialist: THE AA MEMBERS CLUB MAGAZINE
The Brief
A challenging brief: ‘create a magazine to communicate with all our Members and make it cost-neutral'. With a circulation of 3.8 million, The AA Members Club Magazine is the UK's 2nd largest publication.
The Challenge
The objective of the title is to foster Member loyalty, improve retention, encourage take-up of offers and reinforce the brand as the motoring ‘voice of authority'.
Editorial Response
The mini-mag format is cost-efficient and many Members retain the magazine in their glove box. It's designed to appear attractive and engaging without looking over-glamorous or glossy. Great AA Member offers and useful motoring advice are used to engage the reader and reflect the AA motto ‘You've got AA friend'. To complement the magazine and communicate further with Members, The AA Members Club ezine was launched.
Results
Ezine readership results are excellent and online open rates average 28%, with click-throughs to offers averaging 5%.
