Oh what a great question (and one I wish more publishers would ask, not only about frequency changes, but about title changes also)!

My attention is most easily caught by a short, prominent header - in this case "NEW FREQUENCY", "CHANGING TO WEEKLY", etc.  That could be either in a letter, an email,  or a sticky-note type thing on the cover of the issue.  I would also expect my vendor to be notified; they send me such notices regularly.

Hope that's helpful.
