1. (3) What kind of media institution might distribute your
product and why?
2. I researched media companies that distribute music magazines
such as Bauer Media, BBC, Time.Inc UK, Egmont and Immediate Media
co. and Champion Media Group. I have chosen to use Egmont that I
believe would be the best company to produce and distribute my
magazine.
3. This shows that Egmont have experience when selling
magazines to children and teenagers because it states that they
sell over one million copies every month in the UK. It also shows
it is a successful, well-known company because it is the UKs
leading children's publisher, for babies through to teens.
4. This shows that Egmont Media distributes magazines by age
groups. It mainly sells magazines to children Under 7 and Over 7
however it does sell We Love Pop which is a pop music magazine
aimed at female teens which means it can appeal to teenagers as
well as children.
5. CURRENT MAGAZINES THAT PRODUCE AND DISTRUBUTE:
6. Why would be perfect for I chose this distributor/company
for my magazine because they currently sell magazines for under
7s,7 and over and one teen magazine. The teen magazine is We Love
Pop. Therefore, it has experience when selling pop genre music
magazines. However, there current magazine We Love Pop is aimed at
females whereas my magazine is aimed at both genders. Therefore,
this will widen there target audience. I think this distributor
would be best for my magazine( Dynamix) because although they
distribute a pop magazine to teens already, they are not aimed at
the same target audience as my magazine. Therefore, my magazine
which is aimed for older teens would help increase the type and
amount of people the company appeal too. Also, this means that it
would widen the companies audience to a maximum age of 16 years
old.
