During my time working with Endurance GB, I held the responsibility of designing and overseeing the production of Endurance Magazine, a publication dedicated to disseminating news and information about endurance horse riding in the UK. The 48-page litho-printed magazine featured a saddle-stitched binding, a 200gsm silk gloss- coated cover, and 100gsm silk text pages.

The production process commenced with collaborative planning involving the client, editor, and advertising sales manager to develop a flat plan, ensuring accurate pagination for both editorial content and advertisements. Once the flat plan was confirmed and content supplied, I initiated the design and layout phase. Proofing involved a comprehensive review by myself, the editor, and a team of proofreaders provided by the client. The final clean proof was then submitted to the client, advertising team, and other stakeholders for approval. Following the agreed-upon spreads proof, I ensured the export of print-ready artwork and relevant paperwork to the printers, incorporating purchase orders generated from client-supplied mailing data.

Subsequently, I compiled necessary information for the distribution company. I would then initiate the digital export for upload to ISSUU, overseeing the digital distribution using the email marketing solution Brevo (formerly Send in Blue). I designed and executed email marketing campaigns for each issue, delivering content digitally to theendurance readership.

Endurance GB has worked with George Eason Design with regard to our Members magazine and our Members Handbook and we have always been very happy with both the design and the production. Communication has always been straightforward which makes everyone's lives easier.

In my role as Editor of Endurance magazine, I worked with George for a couple of years and found him to be incredibly helpful, professional and easy to deal with on all levels. Even through periods of stress, where several last-minute changes needed to be done, George stayed calm and nothing was too much trouble for him. I don't know how he put up with all us ladies and our demands at times! George is a talented designer who I would highly recommend to anyone.
