My Distributor

Through all my options for my distributors such as Harris Publication or spin media I ended up deciding with JPC media to be my distributor.

JPCI chose JPC because it appeared to be the most beneficial option, the reason why I say this because my typical and specific audience is for those who are interested in hip hop, grime, jazz RnB, for this type of genre it normally appeals to the black community that being the African Americans. With that being mentioned my typical audience is therefore black people, by applying with JPC who are also mainly focused in the same area of people. By distributing with them it would allow me to reach my audience much easier and quicker.

Reasons…

Another reason which why I chose JPC is because if I was to have chosen Harris Publication I would have found it to be pointless, the reason I say this is simply because Harris Publication already have a magazine that publish similar content like me. Whereas JPC doesn’t, which will also expand JPC branches within the media especially in the UK.

JPC doesn’t have content that strictly focuses on the hip hop, grime, jazz and RnB music in their media in result meaning JPC may potentially reach a greater awareness in the UK since if New Era Music magazine was to distribute with JPC would be the first in the UK with such content.

Since we have the same typical audience, it would be easier distributing my magazine by using similar tactics used by the other magazine such as JET or EBONY.

Types of distribution used

Magazine: this would obviously be the main source of distribution which will be a monthly issue coming out in both the UK and the USA,

Apps: since their has been an increase in technology, the use of apps would allow the magazine to keep up with technology and also allow more accessibility to the magazine.

Twitter/Facebook/Instagram websites: social network is the most popular source of information and used source of media, with that being mention if having a website this will also allow greater accessibility and exposure. Issues of the magazine would be updated daily
