Evaluation Question 3 - What Kind of Media Institution Might Distribute Your Product

 The Stages that I would go through in order to successfully distribute my product to complete it would go in this order.

1. The first stage is Pre-Production, in this stage planning would begin and the final deadline would be told to all people involved in order for the product to be finished on time.
The second stage of this whole process is Production, this is where all of the people involved, e.g. the writers, would go off out and gather all of the stories to include in the final product, then they would write up their stories, also the photographers would gather up all of their images taken.
The third stage is where all of the editors will gather up everything given by all the parties involved such as the photographers and the writers, and make their last adjustments to edit this into the final product.

2. One of the main distributers of magazines is Bauer Media, I would choose them to distribute my magazine as they already have a lot of experience selling the type of genre that my magazine is. They also have a whole lot of experience in selling magazines around the world, so I predict that it would not be a hard job distributing my product as it falls under two of their target audiences.

3. Seeing as though they already sell on a similar genre like my magazine, they will know know what to do with mine in order to distribute it, they will be rather familiar with mine. I do believe that my magazine would fall under the same genre of magazines as Kerrang and Metal hammer, mine will hopefully pick up that target audience, I will have to alter some aspects in my magazine in order to avoid having my magazine exactly the same as others that I took inspiration off.

4. I would advertise my product by maybe pairing it up with other product that would relate to my target audience. Thing such as skating events like The X-Games, and maybe some metal gigs featuring A Day To Remember and Rise Against.

5. I would definitely use Web 2.0 to its fullest advantages, maybe by advertising some sell lines on Twitter or any other social media sites I could get a direct link to its website, and put a subscription feature online. I would again pair it up with skate events and metal/punk gigs by saying "I will give a free copy of this if you buy two or more tickets" I will ask Apple to help with my distribution process by placing an online article on there. These methods will defiantly get too the people who spend a lot of their time on their laptops.
