1. Question Three ~ What kind of media institution might distribute your media
product and why?
I believe Bauer Media would publish my magazine because their products are very varied in
brand, style and target audience. I also think my publication should be available worldwide
as social media and its users are worldwide. They could advertise You 2 on their other
media platforms such as their radio stations, like Cool FM, and TV channels like The Box.
You 2 will cost £2:00; this is not too expensive for a start up magazine. Also if I keep it at a
reasonably low price it will be better for the target audience as many young readers dislike
the constant change in price of magazines they read. I would expect revenue between
£1,080 and £1,200 in the first year and that it would increase significantly as a trust in the
magazine and its writers is built.
My product will be available in paper and electronic format to purchase. There will also be
snippets available on Facebook and Twitter, and photographs on Instagram to entice people
to buy my magazine. As i progress with my product I will produce an app and website for my
magazine, so that it becomes more easily accessible for a wider audience demographic.
Furthermore, they will be able to access it anywhere without having to buy a paper copy of
the magazine.
