1. Q3. what kind of media
institution might distribute your
media product and why ?
2. Bauer media
My chosen publisher was Bauer media , with this I have selected this
specific publisher due to the gap in the market I have identified in this
publishing company. Through my acknowledgement there are currently
no music magazines in which also follow in my magazines music genre.
Therefore I feel as my magazine will be a new project for the publishers
I will gain extra attention due to the fact that when coming to launch
anything new the extra details are very important , also I will want my
magazine to continue to be published by Bauer , therefore it needs to
sell . In this further the music magazine market alone does not vastly
cater for this genre of music therefore the competition is scarce , but
due to this using a well known publisher is essential as people can
identify the publisher and know the magazine will be very well put
together .

3. Background information
Bauer have an extensive career in publishing even stretching
back as far as 1953 due to there extreme success from these
early years they have been able to expand there business and
as total of 300 magazines in which they publish including
international magazines , they have mad a good names for
themselves in the publishing industry .
4. Who do they work with
I found Bauer media publishing company during my research
task where I had to research the publishers in which my case
studies of Mojo and Classic Rock magazines used in this I really
liked the publications by Mojo magazines , in this the publisher
happened to Bauer . In researching the company further I found
they had a very well established company therefore I felt they
would represent my magazine in a very beneficial way .
5. What they have to offer my magazine ?
Bauer can offer a lot to my magazine as they are available on many
platforms such as social media and through their own personal
website with this I found that there was a gap in the market in their
company for a magazine like mine therefore there would be no
competition , which is important as I want my magazine to be centre
of attention at the publishing company. With this the company can
offer great new opportunities for my company as they are an
international publishing company , and also they can help launch my
magazine on many other platforms such as my own website or even
social media websites or even a online magazine subscription .
