The document discusses potential companies that could distribute the author's music magazine. Spin Media, which owns Vibe magazine, may be interested because the author's magazine has similar qualities to Vibe in terms of layout, but targets a younger audience with a different music genre focus. This would provide diversity for Spin Media. Alpha Media Group, which owns Blender magazine, could also be interested since the author was influenced by Blender, so the magazine would appeal to their audience; however, the magazines may be too similar for the same company to publish both.

2.  Companies such as Spin Media who own Vibe
magazine might be interested in distributing
my magazine as it has qualities of Vibe which
suggests their audience would enjoy it. My
product however has a different music genre
base to Vibe and my target audience is lower
suggesting that although it has similarities to
Vibe concerning layout it is very different
therefore attracting a different audience.
Vibe also has an older target audience than
mine, therefore again my magazine would
provide Spin Media with more diversity.

3.  Another company that might be interested in
distributing my magazine is Alpha Media
Group who own Blender. Blender was a big
influence for my product which means that
my magazine would appeal to their already
established audience meaning I would know
my product would sell. The only problem
would be that they may be too similar for
the same company to be interested in
publishing.
