PROMOTIONAL METHODS Concerning my magazine.
WHY PROMOTE?
Promotion is how a brand makes itself known to its audience-
without the audience knowing the brand, how could they build their
products? They wouldn’t.
We need to successfully promote this publication in order to ensure
that we are successful in the sense that we’ve influenced our
audience and made an impact on them.
In order to reach our target audience, we should focus our resources
to areas that would reach them specifically
PROMOTIONAL METHODS
The promotional methods that I think would be most effective are:
 Social media
 Star power
 Radio advertisements
 Advertisements in similar publications
PROMOTIONAL METHODS
Social media
This would be particularly effective
due to the fact that our target
audience frequent social media as
they would want to, not only keep
updated with their favourite artists,
but also to interact with one another
and find out more about the current
music scene.
As well as needing our own social
media accounts, the brand would
benefit hugely from the exposure of
being mentioned/featured in artists’
accounts. To find out more about the
influence of social media, see my
‘Social Media’ post
Star power
The brand would benefit from the use of
star power as there are many people who
seriously consider artists’ opinions; if one
artists mentions something about reading
our magazine or that they like it, their fans
would make a conscious effort to become
fans of the magazine.
As a result, not only would our sales soar,
but we would gain more fans of the
magazine and this would increase our
influence.
A potential system for this could be that
every time we feature an artist, they could
mention us in their social media and
perhaps release informal images
surrounding the issue. This would help their
fans get excited about the issue whilst
guaranteeing our exposure.
PROMOTIONAL METHODS
Radio advertisements
This would be particularly effective due to
the fact that our target audience listen to
music. As many listen to music on the radio
as it constantly plays music of a certain
genre, we would be directly appealing to
fans of that genre. We could play the ads on
radio stations that play just Indie R&B (such
as JussRuss Radio) or on more mainstream
radio stations (our audience are
mainstreamers) such as Capital or Kiss in-
between specific R&B songs.
Considering our audience are young adults
and may be attending college, university, or
work, we should place our ads during times
when they're sure to hear it. Around 8am
and 4-6pm are both good choices as they
are likely to be travelling in these times.
Advertisements in similar
publications
The audience is already there, for this specific
promotional method-we are simply taking advantage
of a well established brand and are associating
ourselves with them; by doing this, we will appear
established simply by association.
However, we won't advertise ourselves in competing
magazines; although this is a potentially good idea,
we may just be wasting both time and money. I feel
that a less competitive approach would be to place
advertisements in other magazines made by our
publishing house- although they will not have our
exact target audience, they will be similar or maybe
even completely new. This is a way of exp0anding
our readership.
When doing this, we must consider the genre of
magazine that we are placing the ads in, it would be
useless to spend money on advertising in a sports
magazine, because we are not a part of that genre. A
genre probably best suited to us would be something
more like lifestyle, or maybe even travel. Our
demographic are aspirers, and they aspire to try new
things, and improve their lives- both of which these
magazine genres relate to.
LAUNCHING THE MAGAZINE
The actual launch of the magazine is a perfect (and necessary) time to promote
the brand.
In order to present that we are upmarket and a high end magazine, we shall host
the launch party of the magazine within Central London. Also, in order to make it
more of an experience, we’ll host it on luxury boat; as it travels along the Thames
during the evening, there’ll be performances from artists who feature within the
magazine. High profile people will be there as their very presence will generate
publicity and they’ll be able to tell their followers all about it on social media-
thus generating more publicity.
The reasoning behind wanting to make it an experience is that this will be the
perfect opportunity to network with people from the actual industry, hosting a
memorable party will make them more likely to remember you and do business
with you in the future.
The performances will further enforce the idea of it being a music magazine, and
the publicity from performing will give an added incentive to the artists and the
audience for showing up.
Another way we could promote this is to hold competitions in which fans can win
tickets to the launch and see their favourite artists perform in a fun, intimate
setting as opposed to seeing them 50m away in a concert venue.

Considering our audience are young adults and may be attending college, university, or work, we should place our ads during times when they're sure to hear it. Around 8am and 4-6pm are both good choices as they are likely to be travelling in these times. Advertisements in similar publications The audience is already there, for this specific promotional method-we are simply taking advantage of a well established brand and are associating ourselves with them; by doing this, we will appear established simply by association. However, we won't advertise ourselves in competing magazines; although this is a potentially good idea, we may just be wasting both time and money. I feel that a less competitive approach would be to place advertisements in other magazines made by our publishing house- although they will not have our exact target audience, they will be similar or maybe even completely new. This is a way of exp0anding our readership. When doing this, we must consider the genre of magazine that we are placing the ads in, it would be useless to spend money on advertising in a sports magazine, because we are not a part of that genre. A genre probably best suited to us would be something more like lifestyle, or maybe even travel. Our demographic are aspirers, and they aspire to try new things, and improve their lives- both of which these magazine genres relate to.
  • 6. LAUNCHING THE MAGAZINE The actual launch of the magazine is a perfect (and necessary) time to promote the brand. In order to present that we are upmarket and a high end magazine, we shall host the launch party of the magazine within Central London. Also, in order to make it more of an experience, we’ll host it on luxury boat; as it travels along the Thames during the evening, there’ll be performances from artists who feature within the magazine. High profile people will be there as their very presence will generate publicity and they’ll be able to tell their followers all about it on social media- thus generating more publicity. The reasoning behind wanting to make it an experience is that this will be the perfect opportunity to network with people from the actual industry, hosting a memorable party will make them more likely to remember you and do business with you in the future. The performances will further enforce the idea of it being a music magazine, and the publicity from performing will give an added incentive to the artists and the audience for showing up. Another way we could promote this is to hold competitions in which fans can win tickets to the launch and see their favourite artists perform in a fun, intimate setting as opposed to seeing them 50m away in a concert venue.
