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

When looking back at the case study the publishing company I would choose to work with is Bauer.

The first reason why I chose them was because Bauer distribute loads of different types of magazines like TV magazines and others but have very little music magazines, so by distributing my magazine it will attract a new and fresh audience.

The second reason why I chose this publishing company was because there will be less competition since they don’t produce many music magazines and this means money won’t be spread  between music magazines since my magazine will give the Bauer a new audience and will give the company a wider range on what magazines they sell.

The third reason is that I think it will be very beneficial for my magazine since they have connections to top man and by have connections to top man it can support the style of clothing in the magazine.

Having a subscription for my magazine I think would be a good idea since it is a quicker way of paying for the magazine as long as the person has money in the bank and also it would be easier for them since it would be sent straight to their door.

To make my magazine as popular as such leading magazines like Kerrang or NME I would try and sell my magazine in as many places as possible such as WHSmiths because they mostly sell reading material like magazines and books and this would be good because loads of different people go to the WHSmiths, or any other shop or corner shop will be good then people won’t need to travel far to buy the magazine.

The price I am selling my magazine at is £2.99 which is quite cheap and a younger audience would be able to purchase the magazine and from my audience research most people said that they would be able to pay for it.
