Conclusion and round up
- I have decided that a suitable distribution company for my magazine would be “Innzone”. I
have come to this conclusion because they communicate, sell, and distribute products over the
telephone to 25,000 independents with a display value of £250 per store, resulting in over
3000 stockists.
- Source: www.immzone.com
- The date of my release of my magazine will be the 1st of February, this is because there is
evidence on my production plan that everything will be complete by Friday 15th January, and
the upcoming month is the 1st February. This also means that there will be remaining time for
proofreading and printing. My readership will also have a whole month to purchase PULSE
magazine’s first issue. They also could remember the date of release because it will be the first
of each month.
