Some things to keep in mind when designing the layout of our personal magazine plans were to always keep in mind the way that the user/customer reads. The average magazine reader engages with a short attention span and will be prone to skim reading. This fact hails importance on the article being attention grabbing and will involve the inclusion of captions in larger text and separate text boxes for short, related information.
There should be an intro section that involves a couple of sentences giving a summary of the article. Sub headings helps break up the text into easily digestible chunks. And a good source of information when coming to finding images is www.istockphoto.com. This is a legal website that sells images for a very reasonable price.
Overall I found her talk and insight very useful. She spoke about the life of a self employed person in the industry and really helped me understand the pro's and con's involved with such a job.
