THE Heritage Explorer Magazine is a print magazine and publishing business proposal dedicated to delivering the latest exploration, travel, archaeology, culture and heritage news.
A concept born out of the aspirations of a team of journalists, archaeologists and historians to build a credible and sustainable publishing business that will not only provide the public with entertaining articles and up-to-date research, but also to develop career opportunities for all those involved.
In line with Kickstarter.com guidelines, the project has a set number of days to raise all the funding in order for the project to succeed. The Heritage Explorer has a 40 day window to achieve the target goal.
The writers and contributors for the magazine range from TV and documentary presenters, famous explorers and historians through to established figures for contributions within each category section of the magazine.
The crowdfunder has been commissioned by the popular heritage website, HeritageDaily, one of the most trafficked online journals and magazines in the heritage sector.
When asked why HeritageDaily has chosen the crowdfunding approach, Managing Editor Markus Milligan said:
“Kickstarter offers a platform to spread the word quickly to a large audience and gain their support.
We have spent the past three years keeping the world updated with the latest discoveries and research news online with HeritageDaily. We are passionate about the topics we publish and we want to create this magazine for people, who like us, have a passion for the historical and cultural world.
The Heritage Explorer will allow us not only to present a printed magazine, but a publication that becomes a sustainable, entertaining, informative and well respected magazine that opens up new opportunities for growth and jobs within the sector.”
