Q3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

Looking back to my case study I would try and work with the publishing company Bauer.


Reason 1 - I feel even though they already have ‘KERRANG’ which is quite similar type of magazine. I feel I target the much younger audience and so Bauer could cover all age ranges of a genre resulting in total competition wipe-out.

Reason 2- Bauer to not cover a lot of magazines for the younger generations and so I think I would cover the teen genre well because looking at their magazine they don’t have much.

Reason 3- I Would like to go with Bauer as I feel they would be very beneficial in producing my Magazine and I would be able to bring in more advertising from places such as topman who support the dress sense in my magazine.







I think subscription would be a good idea and people seem to prefer it as long as they have got the money in their bank, because it is no hassle, magazine straight to your door and the magazine is guarantee paid for.


I would try and sell my magazine in as many shops as I can WHSmith would be a good place to sell as people go there to buy magazine as it is profound on having books and magazines. But of course any corner shop or music magazine would be just as good.
  
I’m selling it at quite a cheap price of £2.99 which is very inviting to students who don’t have much money on them. it also is a good price to introduce yourself to the magazine world.
