Dear Contributors,
I hope you are all as excited as I am to be moving ahead with the summer re-launch of Smartimes magazine.
Your hard work has helped pave the way for it to become one of the top international trade publications in the industry.
As before, the magazine is privately owned and will be operated by an independent staff of Smart Car enthusiasts just like you. But we need your help in broadening our reach and maintaining a high level of quality to ensure its success.
I have included the following paragraphs to give you some direction and guidance as to how we will structure the magazine going forward.
Please consider which areas you might be interested in:
1. Smart News—a starter section for readers containing the latest breaking news stories about Smart Car happenings all over the world.
2. Smart Talk—a section composed of stories by contributors that will be of keen interest to our readers. These stories should reflect the enthusiasm shared by the worldwide community of Smart Car owners. They should be educational and entertaining for the reader. Each correspondent will be asked to submit their own photos.
3. Smart Class—a section with information and photos submitted by readers featuring innovative or out-of-the-ordinary Smart Cars and their owners.
4. How Smart—a how-to section containing technical information about the Smart Car.
5. Product Reviews
Other possibilities:
• A regional section containing information from each of the largest Smart Car markets in the world, including Canada, the U.K., the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia.
• A question and answer section for readers.
• A diary section containing anecdotes about memorable moments in the life of a Smart Car owner submitted by our readers.
The new issue is due out July 2008, and we need all materials no later than June 21 2008. Please send e-mails to
editor@smartimesmagazine.com and all contributions to
contributions@smartimesmagazine.com.
Thank you,
